    Indycar 2008

    An all-new carset brings this years reunification of US single seater racing to BATracer.


    Available in two parts, the first element features accurate multiple-liveries per team and specialisations across the entire 2008 Indycar season. A 27-strong grid make the races busy, and lone-wulfs will love the option of single car teams. To date, this carset features more oval races than any other carset. Part 2 will follow in a few weeks.

    KT Price Reduction

    Due to changes in exchanges rates the price of KT has been temporarily reduced from $21 to $19. If you've been thinking about getting KT, perhaps now is the time to take the plunge!

    Champcar Championship v2.0

    A small graphics update to an existing carset this time:


    This should be loved by fans of the original carset, it adds new graphics, full liveries from the '95 season and two new tracks. Indy 500 is also included, which features aggregated qualifying - quite a different challenge to normal. This carset also introduces a nations cup which we thought such a great idea we included it across all games! The original carset remains for those after a slightly shorter championship.

    F1 Pack Released!

    In a first for BATracer, we have released 3 new carsets at once - all based on past modern F1 seasons - each with their own features that make them different from the rest.


    Smallprint: Because not everybody loves F1, we've not made them permanently available this time. If one of the carsets isn't available to join right now it will rotate around shortly. We will be revising game creation this week - we promise! For more information about these carsets please see this forum post. Enjoy!

    Edit Team Upgrades

    A new function has been added for private game owners to alter the performance upgrades during a championship. This allows players that manage their own leagues to have greater control over a custom series.


    Furthermore, with some manipulation of these figures players can either level out the playing field to make all cars equal, or make relative car performance gaps larger, more realistic and thus much more challenging.

    My World Records

    We have now added a new menu item - My World Records. Read this forum post for a further explanation.

    Mid-Season Bug Fixed

    A bug where players joining mid-season games where the previous Kool Tools player had hidden their car setup and it was no longer reversible has been fixed.

    Multi-Accounting Clarification

    Players are reminded that multi-accounting is prohibited unless each account has Kool Tools added to it. Multi-accounting at best denies honest players a decent game and at worst slows the server for everybody. This is punishable by black flags, temporary bans or permanent bans.

    Multiple Kool Tools accounts on the other hand, allow us to continue to provide and extend more reliable and faster servers.

    Morgan Jones
    Nico Zandberg
    Yuri Laszlo Broggio Silva

    ...more car comparison!

    We have now also added the race finish frequency to the car comparison page which previously just provided an estimate of how fast your car is. This takes into account several factors and once again is only a rough estimate of a cars true behaviour.

    Posted by Jules.

    Car Comparison

    Quick change to our car comparison pages. About 18 months ago we added aerodynamic data to cars to be used in calculations on high speed circuits in addition to engine power output. This extra data has not been factored into the car comparison pages - until now.
