SRO is delighted to announce that a new agreement has been signed with software development company Simbin, lasting through until 2011.  This new agreement reaffirms the joint collaboration between the two companies since 2003.

Under the existing contract, two games have been produced : GTR - the FIA GT Racing Game. which was launched last year and which was based on the 2003 season, and the new version, GTR2, which will be available later in 2006. 

This new agreement opens up great opportunities for developing games with new technology, on new platforms, aiming to get even closer to the ultimate racing experience in a game.

Stephane Ratel, Chairman of SRO, commented : “We are very pleased to continue this long-term collaboration, which has seen the FIA GT Championship become the subject of one of the very best racing simulation games available.  Simbin, with their racing background, know exactly what the FIA GT Championship is about, which is what gives the GTR game its incredibly realistic nature.”

Simbin CEO Henrik Roos, who raced in the FIA GT Championship between 2002 and 2004, commented : “ This new licence with SRO will allow us to continue to develop games based on the FIA GT Championship.  It is a strategically wise move, to be able to build further on one of the corner stones of this company.  It also mens we can continue a  well-established, mutual trust and cooperation with SRO, which we are all very happy about.  Now we can keep on making the best racing simulation available !”
