Senna and Aston GTE released
« on: August 16, 2019, 11:26:48 pm »
The Aston Martin GTE and Mclaren Senna Hypercar/GTR have been released as a pack on Steam.

https://store.steampowered.com/itemstore/365960/detail/1011/

Each car can be purchased separately, but the pack makes a lot more sense as rF2 and WEC will be replacing the LMP2 with the Hypercar class in the near future. plus the AM GTE is an addition to the GTE class in multiclass racing. (which we may move toward in an other series or two)

I have up a server with the GTE, Hypercar, and LMP2 classes on it at both LeMans and Sebring. Just move to the next track if you find yourself on a track youe would rather not be on and you are the only driver on the server. If there are more people you will have to put it to a vote.

My early impressions on the Aston is that the LeMans gearing is way to long and I could not get past 180 or so on the straights. I am sure I simply have not got the setup right, although I could not keep the car on the track with 1 wing.

The Mclaren senna is a hoot to drive. Planted as the day is long and the gears are unlocked so you can decide how you want to attack the track. No aero packages available though so it is up to the drivers to setup their car for either LeMans or Sebring.

Let us know your opinions on the cars and maybe share some setups if you feel so inclined.

I would like to correct that hypercars won't replace lmp2 but lmp1 class.
In order to win you need to be willing to roll the dice.

Thank you for the correction Matt. Apparently I misunderstood the original announcement about the Hypercars.
