Con un nuovo post su SimBin Insider, il blog ufficiale del team svedese, i SimBin annunciano una nuova licenza acquisita per R3E. Questa volta si tratta della Alpina Automobiles, della quale è stata svelata la Alpina B6 GT3, vincitrice del campionato ADAC 2011. 530 cavalli di potenza erogati da un potente V8 per 1230 KG di peso ne fanno una vettura decisamente interessante, che tutti gli appassionati potranno provare una volta che RaceRoom verrà pubblicato.

I SimBin sono scatenati e continuano a pubblicare annunci a tutto spiano sul loro blog. La nuova licenza che il team ha acquistato per RaceRoom Racing Experience è quella RUF Automobile, noto preparatore delle tedesche Porsche (la cui licenza è concessa in esclusiva ad altre software house, motivo per cui spesso non la troviamo in molti simulatori). La prima vettura mostrata è la RUF CTR3, seppur in una versione "particolare": per rendere la collaborazione più interessante, i SimBin hanno ricevuto il permesso di realizzare un modello da corsa di questa auto, capace di raggiungere i 375 KM/h.

Nuova licenza annunciata per R3E, l'Audi. La prima vettura ad essere riprodotta sarà la R8 LMS. This post has been promoted to an article

A distanza di pochissimo dal precedente annuncio i SimBin ci fanno sapere di essersi spostati ad Est per l'acquisizione di una nuova licenza, quella Nissan. Come per quella McLaren, anche questa licenza prevede diversi modelli, il primo dei quali ad essere svelato è la mostruosa Nissan R35 GTR GT1 spinta dallo stesso motore utilizzato nel campionato giapponese SuperGT.

Due nuove licenze si presentano ufficialmente al pubblico e riguardano la 500 Abarth SS e la pista di Magione, che avevamo già avuto modo di apprezzare nei precedenti screen. Oggi ne arrivano di nuovi, ancora più convincenti!

Codemasters ha appena annunciato di aver rinnovato l'accordo per la realizzazione in esclusiva di titoli dedicati al Mondiale di Formula 1 sia per il 2012, che per altri anni. http://www.codemasters.com/uk/article/codemasters_wins_race_to_drive_new_formula_one_games/ This post has been promoted to an article

Sono appena state annunciate tre nuove vetture con licenza ufficiale Caterham, che si vanno così ad aggiungere a quelle che abbiamo avuto modo di vedere in passato. Following the first batch of licensed cars that have been revealed two weeks ago, Slightly Mad Studios are excited to announce the addition of another three fully-licensed cars to the lineup of their WMD-powered Project CARS title. Project CARS Team Members will be able to experience three stunning cars build by Caterham Cars Ltd., a British company specialized in lightweight sports car machinery. Founded in 1973, Caterham is building lightweight sports cars that go back to the iconic formula of the Colin Champman-designed Lotus Seven. While the original recipe for driving fun, Caterham’s “performance through lightweight” formula paired with an affordable price, has remained unchanged over the years, Caterham has continuously pushed the concept by adding state of the art technology to their vehicles. While buyers have the choice between different models, engines and gearboxes, all Caterham Sevens share the same base layout for maximum performance and fun. The cars are front-engined and rear-wheel driven, seating two people and saving weight by offering little comfort features such as no fixed roof, doors, air conditioning or even completely covered wheels. Project CARS will be giving players the chance to drive three different Caterham models, you can meet our exciting new additions in detail below: Caterham Classic The Classic is Caterham’s base model, giving drivers access to a powerful driving machine for an affordable price. The car is powered by a Rover 1.4 litre K-Series engine, putting out 105bhp. Due to its low weight of just 525 kilos, the Classic accelerates from 0-60 miles in just 6.5 seconds, reaching speeds of up to 110 miles per hour. The car features a 5-speed gear box, alloy wheels, a De Dion rear suspension and adjustable double wishbones with anti roll bar. Caterham R500 Superlight For those who are looking for an even bigger thrill, the R500 Superlight offers even more performance by being even lighter and more powerful. Stripped to the bare essentials needed for performance driving, the R500 Superlight weighs just 506 kilos despite being much more powerful than the Classic model. The car is powered by a 2 litre Ford Duratec engine, its 263bhp of power allow a sprint from 0 to 60 miles in just 2.88 seconds. Using a 6-speed gear box and a limited slip differential, the R500 Superlight reaches speeds of up to 150 miles per hour. Caterham SP/300.R Unlike the other two models, the brand new SP/300.R is not based on the Lotus Seven but an all new development made in co-operation with race car builder Lola Cars Ltd. The SP/300.R isn’t street-legal either but an all-out performance prototype for track days & racing competition. Powered by a supercharged 2 litre Ford Duratec engine providing 305bhp, the car sprints from 0 to 60 miles in just 2.5, topping out at 170 miles per hour. The SP/300.R is packed with racing technology, including a double-wishbone suspension with pushrod dampers, a sequential 6-speed gearbox with a paddle shift unit, air jacks and AP performance brakes. The SP/300.R is fully race-ready, coming with a fire extinguisher system, a cutoff-switch and a FIA-approved roll cage. Caterham plans to build 25 examples per year, a one-make racing series featuring the SP7300.R will be launched in 2012. Questo messaggio

Come si poteva intuire dal fatto che certe vetture fossero chiamate con il loro vero nome, gli SMS hanno rivelato le prime auto di cui hanno acquisito licenza ufficiale. Di seguito l'annuncio. GUMPERT apollo s You should have all noticed this car by now - it was our first signing and what a car it is (one of my personal faves). A full-on race-bred, mid-engined, RWD car, the design of the car is so optimised that GUMPERT claim it could drive upside-down in a tunnel if driven at sufficiently high speeds. Ariel Atom A completely bonkers British-made sports car, the Atom is truly a vehicle for the track. With the chassis laid bare, minimal bodywork and weighing less than half a tonne, it's got a brutal power-weight ratio which makes it a great addition to the game. Ariel Atom Mugen Limited to a mere 10 models, the Atom Mugen is made in collaboration with the Japanese tuner Mugen and features a Mugen-tuned 270bhp engine from a Civic Type-R as well as a custom livery and badging. Ariel Atom V8 From mental to insane - that just about sums up the Atom V8. Limited to a run of 25 cars and with a V8 powering it, the car features a full sequential gearbox and a power to weight ratio of more than 900bhp/tonne! Palmer Jaguar JP-LM Just about the closest thing you can get to driving an actual Le Mans prototype, the Palmer Jaguar JP-LM is a mid-engined sports prototype car available to drive on the Palmersport days.
