Project Motor Racing | Pursuing Excellence With Tetsuya Yamano
Project Motor Racing has rolled out the Factory Driver Program as part of their efforts to push the boundaries of the virtual world and deliver greater realism in Project Motor Racing. This system brings together active drivers and veteran sim racers to provide regular feedback on the game. Participants answer 40 questions covering 5 categories—Car Setup, Authenticity, Finding Speed, Endurance Racing, and Dynamic Track. Their responses are analyzed by an algorithm and used by the developers to fine-tune each vehicle’s performance. In addition, participants can join an online forum to communicate directly with the developers and other players.
Project Motor Racing is searching for both pros and amateurs, whether they’re racing virtually or on a bona fide racetrack, to join the Factory Driver Program. For more details, visit the official Project Motor Racing website.
* The Factory Driver Program is conducted in English. Not all applicants will be guaranteed a spot in the program.
