RaceRoom WTCC 2013 Racing

Since Sector 3 is hard at work on WTCC 2014 it spured me to run some races in WTCC 2013. Here is one of them I recorded. These cars are fun and offer up intense racing at times.
I don't edit to create a perfect race. I let it stand as a real race would. Enjoy!

rFactor 2 1966 BT20 Test Drive W/ new Tire Mod

Taking the old car out for a spin on the 1966 Historic Brianza Track. This race car is a handful still, but is easier tamed I'm feeling now. You defiantly need to spend a little seat time to get the downshift rev matched and don't downshift to early as it will take you for a SPIN literally.

Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.
