Update 0.6.5 of Assetto Corsa is now available on Steam. The update includes optimizations, improvements and bug fixes but it’s biggest feature is the addtition of the McLaren MP4-12C GT3 to the sim. The McLaren has been a popular car in sim racing the past couple of years, appearing in multiple sims, and now you can see how it stacks up against the competition in Assetto Corsa. Other notable improvements to the sim are power and suspension updates to the BMW 1M Stage 3 and the Lotus Evora Stage 2, engine damage for harsh downshifts and over revving the engine and improved Oculus Rift support.
