Game Overview

The unmistakable body of a Porsche 906, the goose bump provoking sound of a Ford Mustang and the sophisticated skills required of the driver of a Corvette Stingray are synonymous with the motor sports of the 60s and 70s. An era in the course of which some of the most exclusive racing cars of all times were designed and the uphill struggle for points required great driving skills of the pilots. Equipped with the official licence of the FIA GTC '65, FIA TC '65 and FIA GTC-TC '76 respectively, this year, 10Tacle Studios and developer SimBin will recreate the period of great racing adventures by introducing "GT LEGENDS".
