After teasing a new game mode and new bikes last month, the team behind TrackDayR has released a massive new update to their PC-only motorcycle sim.
As well as new much-needed rider animations (see our April article to witness slightly janky looking bikers), TrackDayR also now features a new replay system for RaceR and TrackDayR modes. The much-maligned helmet camera has also been reworked to offer a smoother experience than before too.
The headline features from this update, however, are undoubtedly the new motorcycles. Update v v1.0.91.27 adds the Motocross-style MX Bike 450cc 4 Stroke, the Enduro and Trials-style Enduro Bike 300cc 2 Stroke and the Supermoto 450cc 4 Stroke (in ‘knee down’ and ‘foot down’ rider positions).
The MX, Supermoto and Enduro bikes add new variations of motorcycling to the sim, and to accompany them TrackDayR has also added new Super Enduro and Supercross tracks.
Developer MadCow has also focused on TrackDayR’s physics, creating a new tyre model underpinned by the industry standard Pacejka tyre slip formula. The Pacejka formula is the mathematical formula developed by Dutch vehicle dynamics specialist Hans B. Pacejka and is widely used across the sim racing industry.
