This is a short preview of this amazing new car for Game Stock Car 2012, the Camaro SS. It is a beast, with realistic physics developed by Niels Heusinkveld and Renato Simioni, this car is a hands full of work and joy! It is not a race car, but a street car that is great to drive on the track.

Il futuro ed attesissimo GTR3 si muove lentamente, ma si muove... Il team SimBin ha infatti annunciato oggi l'acquisizione della nuova licenza del circuito olandese di Zandvoort.

We are very happy to announce a renewed cooperation with Circuit Park Zandvoort. We have been working with them for a few titles in the past and they will be part of our future titles as well. As a Dutch guy, I am probably slightly biased talking about Zandvoort in all its awesomeness…. But I know for a fact that it is a favourite track for many of you to race on, as it always provides great races!

Also Erik Weijers, C.O.O. Of Circuit Park Zandvoort was excited about being part of our line-up, here is what he had to say!

Circuit Park Zandvoort is very happy to be part of SimBin next project. SimBin Studios has great attention to detail and this resulted in a very realistic virtual prepresentation of Circuit Park Zandvoort. Racefans will be astonished how real the experience will be and how impressive the Tarzanbocht and Schevlak are for the race drivers!

Sono disponibili ben 4 nuove piste (tutte gratis) per SimRaceWay: si tratta di Sonoma, Lime Rock Park, Madeenat Al Bahar e Shinjuku. Inoltre è disponibile la nuova Jaguar XFR, al costo di $0.82.

Potete ammirare qui sotto un nuovo video di anteprima dedicato al prossimo F1 Online the Game: il trailer ci mostra i primi 30 minuti di gioco del nuovo sim manageriale della Codemasters. Qui a lato invece una nuova immagine del circuito di Shanghai International.

Il periodo di beta privata di F1 Online the Game, il gestionale free-to-play di Codemasters che ci metterà alla guida di una scuderia di Formula 1, si appresta a concludersi domani, 19 giugno 2012, in preparazione della fase di beta pubblica che si aprirà nei prossimi giorni. In attesa di nuove notizie (intanto il 19 scadranno anche tutti gli NDA legati alla beta privata) e della data di apertura della beta pubblica, vi rimandiamo al topic dedicato sl forum.
