It has featured several Japanese national championship events in the past. It's a typical Japanese track with the option to have several lay-outs. This is lay-out number 2. Today we will also release lay-out Osaka 3 which is the oval course, a new track for the die-hard oval racers to run the NASCAR trucks on. Later we will release a barrier free version, Osaka 4, which is a perfect site for drifters! Osaka 1 will be release in fall 2015.

The tracks are modelled very precisely and combined with the extreme accuracy of the vehicle dynamics and physics engine, the result is simply spectacular, track after track we prove this...
