Project Motor Racing — Update 2.0.0.6 Available Now

The Project Motor Racing development team has released Update 2.0.0.6, a wide-ranging patch that touches virtually every aspect of the simulator: physics and handling, artificial intelligence, audio, UI, replay system, and more. This version also introduces support for the GT Icons Pack, available from 23 June, and brings two important new setup options — third spring and brake duct adjustments — alongside a complete rework of the slipstream model.

GT Icons Pack

The GT Icons Pack arrives tomorrow, 23 June, featuring nine cars that embody a golden era of motorsport: the late 1960s and early 1970s, when raw power, rudimentary aerodynamics, mechanical grip, and driver commitment defined every grid. The pack showcases three distinct classes, each representing a different philosophy of speed. New Career Mode events dedicated to the pack have also been added with this update.

Third Spring and Brake Ducts

Two new setup options are now available in the vehicle settings menu for cars that support them. The third spring is especially relevant on high-downforce machinery such as LMDh cars, which require stiff springs to maintain aerodynamic balance. This element allows drivers to separate mechanical grip from aerodynamic platform control, using normal springs to tune grip while the third spring manages heave and maintains aero stability.

Brake duct adjustment (currently available on LMDh only) becomes an important tuning tool now that brake temperature influences tyre internal air temperature. Adjusting the ducts allows players to fine-tune brake efficiency, tyre air temperature, and tyre pressure behaviour across a run.

Slipstream Rework

Drafting and slipstreaming behaviour has been completely reworked to promote closer, more competitive racing — especially in multiplayer. The result is more consistent drafting, improved balance between cars, and better overtaking opportunities, with tighter battles all the way to the chequered flag.

Physics and Handling

New setup elements (brake ducts and third spring) added for compatible vehicles such as LMDh cars. Slipstream behaviour between cars has been reworked. For the Audi 90 IMSA GTO, a bug affecting the Traction Control assist has been fixed.

Art — Vehicles

General improvements across multiple vehicles for better performance and increased Level of Detail (LOD). In detail:

• Aston Martin AMR Vantage GTE: fixed issues with the rear-view mirror and dashboard lights not displaying correctly in cockpit view
• Audi 90 IMSA GTO: eliminated unnecessary vibrations in cockpit view
• BMW M4 GT3 (G82) EVO: windscreen updated to match real-world counterpart specifications
• Ford GTLM GTE: fixed object clipping in cockpit view
• Mercedes AMG GT3: factory livery updated
• Nissan R390 GT1: fixed the MoTeC system not displaying correctly

AI Opponents

Fixed a bug where AI opponents would not return to the pits after the end of a race. Improved AI race-start reactions. Optimised AI behaviour and pace at Mount Panorama Circuit and Derby. Improved AI behaviour and pace for Group C, GT1, and MX-5 Cup classes.

Art — Environment

Multiple tracks have received visual adjustments for more natural seasonal presentation. Reduced several LOD popping issues. A new Spring season has been added, complete with blooming trees. In detail:

• Brianza: fixed trackside object flickering, improved overall stability and performance
• Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps: fixed pit wall gantry flickering, improved overall stability and performance
• Sebring International Raceway: adjusted pit entry trigger so the pit limiter activates later

Gameplay

Implemented save/load replay functionality on consoles. Fixed a rare issue with correct grid position when restarting a session. Penalty pop-up messages now display on the left side of the screen. Fixed issues in the Factory Driver Challenge and Endurance Hall menus that prevented available events from appearing. Fixed jittery motion in some replay cameras. Improved how saved replays are stored. Fixed fuel display in the vehicle settings page. Improved race engineer detection for blue flag and lapped opponent conditions.

Audio

Suspension audio has been completely reworked for all vehicles in the following classes: GT3, GT4, GTE, JP1, LMDh, and MX-5 Cup.

HUD and UI

Race flags displayed on the HUD have been redesigned. The low fuel warning icon has been redesigned. A Toggle HUD functionality has been introduced and can be mapped in settings. Fixed an issue where HUD elements would incorrectly persist after leaving the customise HUD menu. Fixed incorrect tyre temperature display in the vehicle settings Essentials menu.

Career Mode

Fixed an issue causing AI opponents to appear with missing liveries after ModHub-downloaded liveries had been deleted from storage. New events added for the GT Icons Pack DLC.

Input

Reduced default Force Feedback levels for the LMDh class. Raised minimum rack stiffness from 0.1 to 1.0 for the LMDh class.

Online

Adjusted online points calculations to reduce excessive penalties in races where only a small number of participants finish after others have left the session.

VR — PC Only

Added VR alpha-specific settings.
