Key Features
* Over 300 Cars
RACE 07 features over 300 cars in 9 different racing classes. It
includes the full 2007 and 2006 seasons of the WTCC, the
fantastic BMW E30 M3 and Alfa Romeo 75 Turbo from WTCC 1987,
Formula 3000, Formula BMW, the Mini Cooper Challenge, the Radical
SR3 and SR4 in various configurations as well as the Caterham
CSR200, CSR260 and CSR320 Concept.
* Formula cars and Sports cars
Next to the touring cars RACE 07 also features Formula cars as
well as sports cars. To enhance the experience of driving the
open race cars we have developed a helmet camera as never seen
before. Not only does it accurately resemble the view from inside
a helmet, it also has all the visor dynamics the real fan could
wish for. The visor gets dirty and can be cleaned by pulling off
a protective layer of plastic, the so called Tear-off. This all
contributes to a unique experience.
* True to life damage
A new damage system have been created for RACE 07, this is done
to also support the formula class and Radical cars, the new
damage model features detachable wheels, nose sections, engine
covers, even wings are independently detachable upon impact.
* 32 Different tracks and variations from all over the world,
including city tracks
RACE 07 features 32 tracks from all over the world, closely
modeled after their real-live examples. Next to the famous real
life racetracks RACE 07 also feature several city tracks for even
more intense action. Several tracks are exclusively represented
in RACE 07 and are not featured in any other motorsports games.
* Enhanced track dynamics
With RACE 07 all tracks comes with a strengthened attention to
details. Focus has been on trying to recreate the atmosphere
surrounding real life racing and race tracks. 3D audience and
more than double the a of track side objects are just a few
of the steps taken to improve the immersion of actually being on
one of the real life race tracks included in the game.
* Car filter
RACE 07 features a car filter that allows you to mix cars and
classes as you please. Use the car filter to create single make
racing or mix formula cars, sports cars and touring cars.
* Human-like AI nents that will force you into an error.
The AI in RACE 07 is better than ever. They behave as natural,
trying to force you into an error, putting the pressure on by
making moves and stressing you by flashing their headlights.
You'll have a hard time defending from these fanatics; the
strength/aggression of the nents can also be adjusted in the
game!
* Online artificial intelligence
RACE 07 includes online AI which means that you can fill up the
field of cars on a server with computer generated nents. This
feature assures a challenging online experience, even if you are
just a few people logged into the server.
* Enhanced community appeal; community drivers, customized skins
and league-support
RACE 07 has everything racing-communities could wish for. Not
only are the loyal fans of SimBin racing games already
represented in the game through their names on various cars, they
will also be able to host leagues and use their own car skins in
the game, creating the ultimate individual championships.
* The two-race-format
RACE 07 truthfully recreates the WTCC all the way to the
two-race format of the real WTCC races. The top eight finishers
in the first race will switch places on the grid for the second
race and the winner of the race session is the player who gathers
the most combined points in the both races.
* Bugs and dirt on window
A new version of the bug on window and dynamic weather effects
system used in RACE is being introduced for RACE 07, this will
also work on the helmet visor and will greatly enhance the
immersion factor while playing the game. Functioning window
wipers allow you to sweep away both rain and insects.
* Dynamic weather effects
Dynamic water drops on helmet visor and windows are simulated in
real-time to simulate the sensation of racing in wet or
intermediate weather conditions, the liquids are also being
affected by the wind speed.
* Performance monitor
The performance monitor included with RACE 07 is designed to
help the player find the best compromise between visual
appearance and game performance, the player can set a target
frame rate, once set the game will suggest the best suitable
graphical settings after having monitored the games performance
during a race session.
* New controller interface
With the new controller interface much more attention is paid to
the players wanting to drive the cars using a joy-pad, keyboard
or utilize the mouse steering option. Added controller logics
have been applied to make control of the cars with a joy-pad just
as involving and satisfying as with a wheel. The new controller
interface allows for several controller profiles to be created by
the player.
* Offline and online versions
RACE 07 features the option of choosing between an offline and
online version when the player installs the game. The offline
version offers all the same content as the online version but the
player will not be able to join in online multiplayer races or
compete on the official RACE 07 leader boards with this version.
The online version of RACE 07 needs to be installed in order to
play multiplayer races and to compete on the official RACE 07
leader boards. The online version is Steam enabled and includes
the Steam application. Functioning window wipers allow you to
sweep away both rain and insects.
Next to the touring cars RACE 07 also features Formula cars as
well as sports cars.
300 cars on 32 tracks.
Game Modes
Race Event
In a Race Event being on the grid and waiting for the race to
start can be just a few clicks away, or it can be a complete
racing experience featuring all sessions and options of a real
life race weekend. The player will be able to select which
settings and sessions to use, to customize the race weekend to
his/her liking.
Time Attack
Time attack is a multiplayer mode being played on one PC and
should be thought of as a social game mode. The player can
compete against friends sharing one PC, by setting lap times and
chasing the ghost car of his/her friends, or for the top spot
on the RACE 07 leader boards. Players can check their positions
on the official leader boards after or even during a session.
Practice Mode
If the player want to improve lap times or experiment with car
setups? Then practice mode is the ideal choice, in practice mode
there are no restrictions and sessions can be arranged just as
the player likes them.
Championship mode
Championship mode will give the player the chance to experience
the 2006 or 2007 WTCC championship. The player will go through
the full championship experience, visiting all the tracks of the
2006 or 2007 seasons, experiencing the unique 2-race format of
the WTCC including the reverse grid for the second race, being
penalized with penalty weights when performing well and much
more.
Custom Championship
With Custom Championship we want to offer the players an easy to
use configuration screen for setting up their own championships.
This means the player chooses what car to use and then what
track(s) to use, when these choices have been made the game will
from these choices generate a new championship file.
In short the player can create a championship using all existing
tracks in the game or as little as two when creating a custom
championship. The choice of using a one or two race format is
available to the player when setting up a custom championship.
The choice of enabling or disabling the weight penalty is
available to the player when setting up a custom championship.
Multiplayer
RACE07 features support for 24 nents in multiplayer mode.
These can be either players or AI nents, or a mix of both.
The option of having AI nents (or Ôbots') makes sure that
even with a small group of players you can still have a full grid
of cars.
Multiplayer options are included for both online and LAN. Players
can serve and play, hosting the game from their own computer and
allowing other players to join or setup a dedicated server, the
dedicated server application is included with the game.

behavior and details.

The Tracks of Race 07
RACE 07 has received a significant boost in the track
department. In total it features 32 tracks including several
variations and alternate track layouts. It will feature purpose
built legendary racetracks such as Monza, Imola, Zandvoort and

circuits such as Pau, Porto, Macau and the unique Vara Raceway.
Like the cars, all factors are in place to give the customer the
full racing experience on tracks that are closely modeled after
their real-life examples. An approximate increase of 100% in
details ( polygons ) have been added to the tracks in RACE 07
compared with all earlier SimBin titles, mainly focusing on
adding more atmosphere and life to the tracks and pitlanes, with
more trackside objects and more crowds and spectators.
