  • Holden Commodore VF and Ford Falcon FG included in PMR’s Aussie Rivals Pack
  • Free DLC included alongside game’s new V2.1 update 

A free new DLC has been released for Project Motor Racing today (27th July 2026), including 2013-spec Holden and Ford V8 Supercars.

The Aussie Rivals Pack includes a heavily revised version of the Ford Falcon FG originally released back in March, with the completely new-to-PMR Holden Commodore VF joining it. 

2013 was a pivotal year for the Australia-based V8 Supercars championship, as bitter enemies Ford and Holden were joined by Nissan and Mercedes-Benz for 14 pulsating rounds (and Volvo also joined the party for 2014).

Built to the so-called New Generation V8 Supercar rules, the season was dominated by the Holden-powered Triple Eight Race Engineering cars of Craig Lowndes and champion Jamie Whincup, with a selection of international driving talent – including Mattias Ekström, Andy Priaulx and Marc Lieb guesting in the Enduro rounds.

Each V8 Supercar produced up to 650 bhp and was rear-wheel-drive, hopefully offering PMR players a challenging but rewarding experience behind the wheel, especially as southern hemisphere motorsport is cruelly under-represented in modern sim racing.

Alongside the Aussie Rivals Pack, PMR has been updated to V2.1, with GT3 and GT4 category physics apparently receiving a complete rework.

Much like how VR support entered an alpha testing phase recently, so now does triple-screen support, with players now also given in-game options to adjust their in-headset displays.

Several other quality-of-life changes have also been made to Straight4 Studio’s game, with the full update details outlined in our accompanying article.

Likewise, you can read more about the departure of former Straight4 CEO and sim racing figurehead Ian Bell here, as former deputy Kevin Boland assumes the role.
