AMS2 Friday Night Aussie Supercars

The V8 Supercars are absolute monsters with 640HP and a very (very!) responsive rear-wheel-drive powertrain that packs a lot of torque, so surgical throttle inputs are a must! Those adrenaline-packed machines will certainly provide some very good racing, with exciting and fun battles.In the best V8 supercars spirit, we will be running on classic Aussie circuits (Bathurst and Adelaide), plus three more venues to be voted by the general public. Be creative, anything goes. Think about the most fun places to tame those beasts while battling for the podium.To spice things up and create some variation on pitstop strategies we will be running with accelerated fuel usage (2x) and full damage simulation.

NARS at The Green Hell 2020

Feature by George Angelidis April 30, 2020 – The Nürburgring. This is the world’s most challenging racetrack. 154 bends. 20.83km. Too dangerous for Formula 1. No wonder Jackie Stewart called it “The Green Hell”. So, what is it, that brings us back here? What drives us to go faster? To push harder? And brake later? I guess it’s what we do. It’s what we have always done. So, did we do it? 20 drivers were brave enough to tackle the race! > more
