RACE Pro – Road America Previews

Posted on November 26th, 2008 in Console

Simbin seems to have given out plenty of preview versions of RACE Pro lately as more preview material of their Xbox 360 simulation is popping up on various gaming websites. This time, we´ll focus on Road America, one of two all-new tracks in RACE Pro.

Located in Elkart Lake, Wisconsin, Road America is considered to be the finest road racing facility in the United States. The 6,5 kilometer track offers an interesting mix of ups and downs, long high speed straights and fourteen corners, including the famous carousell. The track accommodates up to 150,000 spectators and is one of the few US tracks suitable to host a Formula One Grand Prix.

Eurogamer.pt has some very nice screenshots of the brand new track in RACE Pro. Those of you who prefer moving images can check out the track presentation video by nextgame.it – Just click on the picture below.

Agree with Raikku, without G25 support this is a pretty futile release, and I dont want to have to buy a Fanatec wheel.

On the 360, it’s not their choice whether to support the G25 or not. Microsoft won’t allow it.

If the Xbox 360 had G25 support. I’d seriously consider buying one, just to play this game.

But time will tell.
