The Mod: A conversion of the rF1 "V8Factor" mod. Why you need it: Australian V8s have huge torque, a heavy clutch, and a sequential shifter. Drive them on converted Bathurst 2015, Adelaide, and Pukekohe. The AI is aggressive (sometimes too aggressive) on street circuits.

Tracks include:

Furthermore, AMS1 mods often carry a legacy from rFactor 1. Thousands of high-quality tracks and cars were built for rF1 over two decades. Because AMS1 is backwards compatible with most rF1 content, the entire history of sim racing modding is available at your fingertips—provided you know how to convert it properly.
