Automobilista 2 Update V1.3.7.1 Released

Reiza Studios continue improving older cars and content, and extending their latest physics changes with Automobilista 2 Update V1.3.7.1 available now.

A wide range of cars have been tweaked, including the F-USA, F-V12, F-V10 G1 and G2, F Reiza, Group C, GT 5, G40 Cup and Super V8s. Plus the physics changes mean that there’s been a need to recalibrate the AI for single player racing.

But there’s lots more, as the sim racing title moves from version 1.3.6.2 to 1.3.7.1 in two sequential updates.
