Below are first previews of the Nürburgring 24 Hour Race 2009 layout version of the track.

With the 24h layout out of the way, Com8 will now be concentration on adding another important feature that was missing in the original version of the track – Shadows.

Originally created for GT Legends, the mod brings one of Porsche’s most successful and most extreme racing cars to the simulation. Racing in the Group 5, the Porsche 935 was a very popular race car on both sides of the pond, feeling right at home on the Nordschleife and at Daytona, at Le Mans and Mosport. The car’s turbo-powered six cylinder engine put out up to 590hp.
The GTR Evolution version includes all liveries of the GTL version and is enriched with additional features such as working windscreen wipers, dirtscreen and wet weather tires. Furthermore, the mod integrates with Mojo66’s GTL mod for GTR Evolution, giving the Porsche some good competition.

The mod will feature an extensive damage model with many removable parts, certainly a good thing to have when it comes to world-class touring car racing.
