Sector 3 Studios keep fleshing out the open wheel ladder of their RaceRoom Racing Experience title by adding the Formula RaceRoom FR3.
Modeled after your typical Formula 3 car, the FR3 slots in between the Tatuus F4 car and the FR2 open wheeler already available for the game, forming a complete open wheel career progressing ladder in the car lineup.
Powered by a 240hp engine, the FR3 sells for 349 vRP in the RaceRoom store.
Alongside the new car, the studio has also released a new update for the title, including the following changes:
Game:
- Fixed an issue where the game would get stuck after skipping a session in a custom championship.

- Fixed an issue with cars being too spread out in rolling start and almost going off the road.
- Fixed an issue where tyres were changing regardless of player choice during pitstop.
