KW Studios is getting ready for a fresh year of sim racing events as a new RaceRoom update adds Esports WTCR 2023 liveries along with some other fixes.
Aside from the paint schemes ready for the start of the Esports WTCR series on January 25th at the Nordschliefe, the rest of the changes are fairly minor. Although you might notice that an invisible wall has been solved at Zandvoort turn three, and a hole has been filled in the collision wall of the VLN layout at the Nordschliefe.
The Esports WTCR 2023 series runs across 5 rounds, and features 20 top teams, who qualified in a three race shootout back in November 2022. Organisations competing include Dorr Esports, Team Fordzilla, Williams Esports, M1RA Esports, Virtualdrivers by TX3 and Lada Sport Rosneft amongst others. With teams designing their own paints, it’s a fairly sizeable download.
It’s one of a number of events taking place in the coming weeks, with the annual RaceRoom 2.4 Hour Daytona races over the weekend of January 27th to the 29th, with qualification for the top split going on at the moment.
