Assetto Corsa: Ready To Race DLC Car Pack Out Next Week For PC

Assetto Corsa “Ready To Race” DLC

An all-new premium DLC car pack is heading to Assetto Corsa next week and it is very much squarely aimed at the racing enthusiast, with the forthcoming release presenting a package that caters to multiple racing flavours.

Coming first to players on the PC through Steam on May 18th, and then (much?) later for those on PS4 and Xbox One, this newest pack provides the “most wanted” ready to race models from Audi, Lotus, McLaren and Toyota.

Assetto Corsa - “Ready To Race” Cars

• Audi R8 LMS 2016
• Audi R18 e-tron quattro
• Audi TT Cup 2016
• Audi TT VLN 2013
• Lotus Eleven
• Maserati MC12 GT1
• McLaren 570S
• McLaren P1 GTR
• Toyota Celica ST185 Turbo
• Toyota TS040 Hybrid

As can be seen from the list above, the term “Race” is being broadly stretched, as with the inclusion of the Lotus 3-Eleven we must be looking at the local trackday kind, whereas the McLaren 570S must mean the manner in which speeding away from the lights in the city is one too. Obviously I am joking here, though the McLaren road car does seem a bit of strange one you have to admit.
