Look Familiar? 1979 F1 Car at Kyalami in rFactor 1979 F1 Demo Mod (above)
Wow, it's been a very busy week for the rFactor sim racing community. As if ISI releasing the v1150 update with tons of new stuff wasn't enough. Now we also have released this week what I feel could be the "killer app" for rFactor to push it over the edge and fully into the mainstream as the Simulation of Choice for the die-hard crowd. That is the F1 1979 MOD DEMO which was released this week. As soon as I downloaded this thing and gave it a try I felt as if I was in a modern day version of GPL. The Physics feel great, the tracks that were released in the demo (Kyalami and Monaco) are very cool looking, and the sounds of the cars are killer. This one is a for sure thing to check out and I will absolutely be watching closely the progress of the development team and the full release. Here are some links:Also another goodie released this week as part of the rFactor patch is the Stock Car (NASCAR) mod! I haven't tried it yet, but have been hearing great things on the physics and presentation of this one! That could be Killer App #2 for rFactor! Great job ISI!!
