During the test day at the Racetrack in Zolder (Belgium) the first Real-Time Racing public test took place and started off with a resounding bang! The Moritz Racing Team came to the event with three powerful GT race cars equipped with the patented iOpener Enabled technology.
Reviewing the first testing experience Andy Lürling (CEO iOpener Media) said:” It was an great first event. The RTR Game preformed well and the data supplied by iOpener was transferred to the gamers as planned. Of course it was a first test and some details have to be worked on. We have to evaluate the test some more but I can already say that we are sure we have reached our first milestone for the RTR game and the implemented iOpener enabled feature.”
Henrik Roos (CEO of SimBin) complements: “Not to forget the overwhelming initial feedback from the gamers! To quote one “this game has great potential and already brings the racetrack to your home.” This already shows the enthusiasm with which the beta gamers enjoy RTR.”
The second live event on the 24 October is just around the corner and for the occasionis many more Beta testers will be selected during the coming week. Andy Lürling is of the opinion “that many people will be signing up since the next live event is taking place during the FIA GT weekend” promising all participants “160 minutes of pure adrenalin”.
