Ferrari Virtual Academy

Post

Exciting news for simracers!

You'll be able to compete with Massa, Alonso Fisi and anyone who wants to compete during time trials on 3 tracks (Fiorano,Mugello and Nürberg) for 15 Euro! They managed to slim down their proffesional F1 simulator so you'll be able to use it on your pc. Sim will be downloadable from Sept 9th.

Some features:

- Official Ferrari sim with the F10
- Laser scanned tracks
- Tested by Ferrari F1 drivers and laptimes to compare
- Same set-ups as in real life
- Hotlap competition

I wonder if the times from the F1 drivers were set with the exact same tools and normal gaming pc's as we have. If so, i'm quite sure Massa and Alonso's time will be beaten.

I imagine the email along the lines of: Felipe r3dfanboi93 is faster than you,

Turs out I was right. Massa has been beaten by about 10 simracers already on the 1st day!

Don't forget those were fast laps. :-|

From what I've read this is a true sim based on NKPro. It's only problem is the lack of damage model and very little content. I wish they added their GT and road cars!

What bothers me is that you must have a VISA like credit cards. Either to pay or to confirm your paypal transfer. :wtf: Fu<k them

Also another 10Euro per track and no other choice but hot lapping.

Rumour has it that if you beat both Felipe and Fernando on all three tracks you get to race against Schumi's best lap. If you do it while drunk you get Kimi.
