We are all set. Here’s the new season with free (and paid) road tracks and cars, IA racing roster improved, etc. The complete release notes are available in a post published yesterday.
One of the biggest iRacing builds ever is officially up and running! Just in time for next week’s kickoff to the new season, the iRacing 2023 Season 4 build is here with an epic fleet of new cars, tracks, features, AI unlocks, and much, much more. You can find the full slate of release notes on the iRacing Forums, but here’s a list of highlights:
- IMSA GTPs: The Acura ARX-06 and Porsche 963 make their debut as new content, joining previous releases from BMW and Cadillac as the entire GTP lineup from the 2023 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship is now available.
- Ferrari 296 GT3: The new sports car content doesn’t stop there, as Ferrari’s latest GT3 challenger, which also made its debut earlier this year, is also available now!
- Super Formula SF23: Japan’s premier open-wheel racing machine, boasting 540 horsepower and a driver-activated Overtake System, adds a new challenge to iRacing’s robust formula racing ladder.
- NASCAR Classic Pontiac Grand Prix – 1987: Joining previously released models from Ford, Chevrolet, and Buick, the Pontiac Grand Prix brings stock car racers one step closer to their 1987 racing dreams.
- Circuit Zandvoort: Fully rescanned and updated, the new edition of Zandvoort joins the previous scan in the track’s package with four layouts. iRacers who already owned Zandvoort will automatically be granted the new scan of the track!
- Kern County Raceway Park: Featuring both paved and dirt ovals, Kern County is one of California’s most diverse racing facilities. All four configurations—two per track—come with this track package, so oval racers of all types, get ready to send it!
- Circuit de Lédenon: Quick and challenging but plenty of fun, one of France’s hidden gems should quickly become a favorite track of open-wheel and GT iRacers alike.
- Sim Optimizations: From improved loading times and a reduced memory usage footprint to more spotter calls, an updated Results & Stats page in the UI, and an increase to 12 loadable cars per session, we’ve been hard at work on improvements!
- New Damage Model: Along with all this season’s new releases, the Dirt UMP Modified, Ford Mustang FR500S, NASCAR Whelen Tour and SK Modifieds, and NASCAR Xfinity Series cars are all equipped with NDM.
- AI Racing: Eight vehicle models and 18 track configurations, including representation for all new cars and tracks, are now available for single-player use—click here for more info!
