WESTHILL DE LA SARTHE | The Ultimate driver's challenge
The circuit for this very special Season Finale is......special.
I've built it with the Circuit de la Sarthe of Le Mans in mind, so i paved a lot of Westhill's external roads, extending the track limits towards insanity in order to achieve the same vibes as iconic Le Mans sections like the Hunaudières straight.
After lots of work, this track emerged [/b] emerged: Westhill de La Sarthe.
A track that's the ultimate driver's challenge, as it contains most type of corners.
Slow, technical sections, hairpins, opposed to ultra fast, bumpy sections, where you'll be on your accelerator for 20-30 seconds, exceeding speed records for the Retro Cup!
You'll start in the Westhill's traditional box section, before launching into hyperspace in the countryside with a bonkers long straight that's reminiscent of the Hunaudières.
There's a variety of landscape, from the circuit to the country, also visiting Westhill's old village with a very complex, technical section that's going around the houses.
There's a little bit of everything in Westhill de la Sarthe, and it's as punishing as it gets!
INTRODUCING THE LE MANS CLASSICS!!!
Wouldn't be a real grand finale with some surprises!
So...in addition to the 5 regular cars, 3 NEW CARS will be feature in the Season Finale, cars that could be used in future seasons!
I introduce you the LE MANS CLASSICS category.
They will all race as "Le Mans Classics" category, and will have their own special standings for this last race.
So, even if you're out of the current LMP, GT or Porsche Cup, you can still compete for a trophy in this last race!
