MMG, creators of the Formula One 2007 mod for rFactor and plenty of other interesting work-in-progress projects have announced a very ambitious new mod project for rFactor and RACE07/GTR Evolution.
The World Racing Challenge will include road cars from all around the globe that can be upgraded with a variety of parts such as bodykits, engines and other tuning possibilities. The cars can be raced in different forms, from drifting to drag racing and circuit racing, many forms of motorsport will be possible.
The mod plans to make extensive use of rFactor’s mostly-ignored money system, meaning that you have to earn money before you can spend it on new parts or cars. The team’s ultimate goal is to create a Gran Turismo like mod for rFactor.
Due to the game’s limitations in terms of upgrades and missing credit system, MMG will face a special challenge with the RACE07/GTR Evolution version of the mod, the team hopes to bring over as many features as possible.
MMG’s Petros Mak points out that this project will not slow down MMG’s other projects as a completely different department of the team will be working on the World Racing Challenge. Since this is a big project, the team is looking for talented people to join their staff. If you like road cars and dig the idea, hop over here and contact them.
