Race Sim Studio's recently released GT Car pack for Assetto Corsa has received its first major update.

This incredible paid mod came to us in December (my review is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2FOuAr7BRU), and featured 3 GT1 cars under different names, but based on the Dodge Viper, Ferrari 550 and Lister Storm.

The cars are notoriously tough to drive, but rewarding in kind.  Did the update make the cars more drivable?  Not really.  There was only one tweak to the physics, and the rest of the changes are to visuals and audio.
