Hi Anthony,
No not at the moment, our Porsche cup is based on GTR2.

Yea, 99% of rFactor usage here is for the open-wheel mods sadly despite it having far better versions of Porsche and V8 Supercar Series mods than GTR2.

Watch this space....

You never know what we will think of next :-]

That said although we have considered the mods mentioned by Sandeep the Porsche was considered to be a big FPS hit, and the V8's although good are not the easiest of cars to drive and we are trying to go with stuff which people can enjoy in terms of lower level single spec series.

Sure we can up it a bit as we go along, hell at the beginning of the year we were only going to do a bit of F BMW and look at it now :-]

Sandeep, really? V8S is up for discussion. But Porsche? All rF versions that I know of (PCC 05, PCC 07 and French Carrera Cup) are sadly lacking in physics department.

Sandeep doesn't own GTR2 so I'm not sure how he has come to that conclusion... he's right about the V8SC but the Porsches in GTR2 are miles better than any in rFactor.

Yeah, too much rF all around In my humble opinion. I just can't get a grip on rF, it's like I'm magically whisked away to '92 when I try to play that game (shudders from the similarities to MS Cart).

I'll go you one further still, I don't think it GTR2 stacks up to Race07 in terms of track detail and realism from a corner cutter's perspective.

But then there are those who will trim the 'sim' to it's simplest form only to remove the complexities that realism requires.
