iRacing.com - Preview of Phillip Island & V8 Supercar
iRacing.com in their forum has released first in-game screenshots of the Phillip Island Circuit and Ford Falcon V8 Supercar. This content is still a work in progress, but it should be in good shape to get it out near the start of next season.
A few notes...
- Not all trees are placed
- Tires are WIP
- Grass color is WIP
- Cliff faces are WIP
- Not all structures are placed
- V8 wheels are to be replaced
Phillip Island is steeped in the history of Australian motor racing. A circuit composed of the island's interior roads was used for the original Australian Grand Prix in 1928 and continued to be used for the race up until 1935.
The circuit closed in the late 1970s, but was redeveloped and re-opened in 1989 to host the first international version of the Australian motorcycle Grand Prix. It continues to host the race today and is also a venue for the Superbike World Championship, V8 Supercars and the Australian Drivers' Championship.
