Targa Florio – New Previews

Posted on August 17th, 2008 in Other Sim Racing

Back in March, I posted the sole item on GP Legends on VirtualR, showing first screenshots of the Targa Florio addon-track in development. To keep up with this story, below are then newest previews of the epic 72 kilometre track.

Until 1974, the Targo Florio hosted a world championship sports car event, the cars raced on the dusty public roads, blasting through the little villages. As safety concerns became an influence in international motorsports, the Targa Florio lost its world championship status and is still run as an Italian rallye today.

Can you put this in 2004-Demo too? I have normal GPL, but that newer “demo” would be much easier base for GPL-reinstall.

Thade is right, a great reason to dust off the good ol’ GPL.

Awesome work, but wouldn’t the time be much better spent doing this track for one of the ISI-based titles?

Ferrari F60 & Singapore 2009 – Released

Along with the car comes the 2009 version of Singapore, Formula One's first ever night Grand Prix. The team's first public mod for rFactor was helped by many modders who ...
