Starting this season, there is a full update to dry and wet tires, as well as improvements to car handling in corners. This is excellent news for those dedicated to the category, which hasn\u2019t always attracted the number of participants it deserves. A new lease on life comes for the Hyundai Elantra N TCR, Honda Civic Type R TCR, Hyundai Veloster N TCR, and now the latest version of the Audi RS3 LMS Gen2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The braking system for TCR cars (Gen1 and Gen2) has been fully redesigned, now featuring a rear proportioning valve just like in real life. These cars are also more technically precise, using new technology to manage splitter height for inspection in the Garage. Fuel capacities have been updated to meet IMSA standards (from 85L to 100L).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Power units for all cars have been updated to better control the turbo. Shift lights are now standardized across the class. A full physics review was also conducted, combined with a new Balance of Performance (BoP) for the entire class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this article, we used a photo from Glass &amp; Steel Photography and Design, which has an excellent Flickr page showcasing the quality of their work.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toda a classe TCR est\u00e1 a ser reformulada de base.
