Project Motor Racing World Endurance Pack launches November 10, 2026 — and it is the biggest DLC the game has ever had. 11 cars. 4 new classes. Fuji Speedway in TWO eras, 1966 and modern, with 6 layouts total. Including the legendary 30-degree banked Turn 1 that was abandoned in 1974 and has NEVER been in a sim before. Price: $19.99 / €19.99 standalone, or included in Year 1 Season Pass ($49.99) — saving you up to 30%. And Update 2.3.0.3 is already live on Nov 6 to prepare your game. Here is everything BoxThisLap missed: every car ranked, every Fuji layout explained, best setups, and is it worth it?
Quick Answer: If you love endurance racing, YES — buy it Day 1. The 2016 LMP1 trio (Audi R18, Porsche 919, Toyota TS050) + Historic Fuji 1966 alone is worth $19.99. If you own Year 1 Season Pass, you already own it — just update to 2.3.0.3.

Developer / Publisher
Straight4 Studios / GIANTS Software (SEGA in Japan)
Last Audi LMP1 ever. Won Le Mans 5x in 2010s. Most aero-efficient.
You love stable, precise, high-downforce cars
2016 Porsche 919 Hybrid
2.0L V4 Turbo Hybrid, ~500hp + 400hp hybrid
Won Le Mans 2015, 2016, 2017. The most successful hybrid LMP1 ever.
You want the fastest lap time at Fuji
2016 Toyota TS050 Hybrid
2.4L V6 Twin-Turbo Hybrid, ~500hp + 500hp hybrid
Heartbreak car – led Le Mans 2016 until last lap failure. Later won 3x.
You love drama + insane hybrid boost
Which LMP1 is fastest in PMR? Early community testing from 2.3.0.3 shows Porsche 919 is fastest on one lap at Fuji Modern (1:22.5s), Toyota TS050 is fastest on long runs (better fuel + hybrid deployment), Audi R18 is easiest to drive. Pick Porsche for hotlaps, Toyota for 1-hour races.
LMP2 & LMP2 EVO – The Fictional Twins
Car
Based On
What It Feels Like
2013 Olivera P2-13 (LMP2)
Zytek Z11SN / Oreca 03 era
Old-school, no hybrid, raw V8, slides a lot. Perfect for learning prototype racing.
2026 Olivera P2-26 EVO (LMP2 EVO)
Oreca 07 – current LMP2 king
Modern, grippy, much faster, easier aero. The car you will use for online ranked.
Why fictional Olivera? Licensing. Real LMP2 manufacturers are expensive to license. Straight4 created Olivera to give you the LMP2 experience without paying Oreca fees. It works — the P2-26 EVO drives almost identical to the real Oreca 07 in Le Mans Ultimate.
IMSA GTP – The 1980s Monsters (6 Cars) – THE HIDDEN GEM
Car
Year
Real Power / Fun Factor
1986 BMW March GTP
1986
BMW M12 Turbo, ~700hp. NEVER in a sim before as first-party content. Rare.
1986 Chevrolet Corvette C4 GTP
1986
V8, loud, tail-happy. American muscle prototype.
1986 Ford Probe GTP
1986
Turbo 4-cyl, 1000hp in qualifying trim. Wild, scary, fun.
1988 Jaguar XJR-9 GTP
1988
7.0L V12, 750hp, Silk Cut livery icon. Won Le Mans 1988. The one everyone will drive first.
1988 Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo
1988
Twin-turbo V6, 800hp. Won IMSA championship 1989-1991.
1988 Porsche 962 GTP
1988
The GOAT. Won Le Mans 1986, 1987. Most wins of any prototype ever. Stable, fast, forgiving.
Pro Tip: Start with Porsche 962. It is the easiest GTP car. Then try Jaguar XJR-9 for the V12 sound. Then try Ford Probe GTP if you want to die (in a fun way) — it has turbo lag that will kill you at Fuji Turn 1.
Fuji is the heart of this pack. Not just a track — a time machine.
Fuji Speedway Modern (2005 Redesign) – 2 Layouts
Length: 4.563 km / 2.835 miles
Turns: 16
Main Straight: 1.5 km — longest in Japan, you hit 340 km/h in LMP1
Best For: LMP1, LMP2 EVO, modern races, WEC style 6-hour races
Key Corners: Turn 1 (100R) — flat out in LMP1, terrifying. Hairpin — best overtaking spot. Last corner — traction is everything.
Fuji Speedway Historic 1966 – 4 Layouts – FIRST TIME EVER IN A SIM
Length: ~6.0 km original layout
Turn 1 – Daichi Banking: 30-DEGREE BANKING. For reference, Indianapolis is only 9 degrees. Daytona is 31 degrees. This is an oval corner on a road course.
History: Built as an oval, never finished because Stirling Moss said it was too dangerous. The banking was kept. After a fatal multi-car crash in 1974, it was abandoned.
Layouts: 4 layouts, 2 can be raced in REVERSE — total 6 layouts across both eras
Best For: IMSA GTP cars — period-correct. Drive a 1988 Porsche 962 on 1966 Fuji = time travel.
OverTake’s editor said it perfectly: “My personal highlight is Fuji 1966. PMR had historic cars but no period-correct tracks to match. Now it does.” This is the first time you can drive historic cars on a historic track in PMR. That is huge.
3. Update 2.3.0.3 – What You MUST Do Before Nov 10
Version 2.3.0.3 went live Nov 6, 2026. It is NOT the DLC — it is the preparation update. If you don’t install it, you can’t play the DLC on Day 1.
On Steam: Update auto-downloads (check Downloads > ~8GB)
On PS5 / Xbox: Go to Game > Check for Update
What it adds: All 11 cars (locked until Nov 10), Fuji Speedway data, new Career Mode events
What it fixes: Stability, handling refinements, ModHub improvements (full notes on projectmotorracing.com)
Don’t wait until Nov 10. Everyone will download at once and Steam servers will be slow. Update to 2.3.0.3 TODAY.
4. Career Mode – New Endurance Events
Update 2.3.0.3 adds new Career Mode events for World Endurance Pack. Expect:
1980s IMSA GTP Championship — 6 races, start in BMW March, unlock Porsche 962
2016 LMP1 Hybrid War — 3 races, Audi vs Porsche vs Toyota at Fuji, Le Mans, Spa
LMP2 Progression — Olivera P2-13 → P2-26 EVO ladder
Fuji Through Time — Same track, 1966 vs Modern, back-to-back — best event in the pack
Note: Straight4 confirmed at SimRacing Expo that full Career Mode overhaul is NOT coming this year. These are new events, not a new career system.
5. Best Setups For Fuji – LMP1 & GTP (Copy-Paste)
Setting
LMP1 (Porsche 919) – Fuji Modern
GTP (Porsche 962) – Fuji 1966
Downforce
High (7/8) – You need it for Turn 1 + Hairpin
Medium (5) – Less downforce = faster on banking
Brake Bias
58% Front
56% Front – GTP brakes are weaker
Tyre Pressure
Front 22.5 psi, Rear 22.0 psi
Front 21.5 psi, Rear 21.0 psi
Fuel / Hybrid
Hybrid Deploy: High, Regen: Medium
N/A – No hybrid
Gear Ratio
Long – For 1.5km straight, top speed 340 km/h
Short – For banking + tight 1966 corners
TC / ABS
TC 3, ABS 2
TC OFF, ABS OFF – GTP cars had none
FFB Tip: For Direct Drive wheels (Fanatec DD+, Moza R12, Thrustmaster T818), set FFB to 70% for LMP1, 85% for GTP — GTP cars have heavier steering and you want to feel the banking.

Verdict: If you want MODERN WEC Hypercars, buy Le Mans Ultimate. If you want HISTORY — 1986 GTP + 2016 LMP1 + Historic Fuji — PMR is the ONLY game that has it. No other sim has this combo.
7. Is It Worth $19.99? Honest Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
Best value DLC in sim racing — 11 cars + track for $19.99 = $1.81 per car
Historic Fuji 1966 is unique — you cannot get it anywhere else
LMP1 trio is complete — no other game has Audi + Porsche + Toyota 2016 together
IMSA GTP cars like BMW March GTP have never been in a sim before
Works on console — PS5 / Xbox players finally get endurance content
Included in Season Pass — if you already own it, it’s FREE
❌ Cons
2 cars are fictional (Olivera) — not real Oreca / Zytek, licensing issue
Base game still has Mixed Steam reviews (2,611 reviews) — physics + stability still being fixed
No new features — no Hot Laps mode, no 32-car grids yet (coming later, per SimRacing Expo)
No Year 2 Season Pass confirmed — future DLC unclear
Career Mode not overhauled — just new events
8. What To Drive FIRST On Nov 10 – Perfect 1-Hour Plan
0-10 min: Porsche 962 GTP on Fuji 1966 — Feel the banking, learn the track, V12 sound
10-25 min: Jaguar XJR-9 on Fuji 1966 — Same track, wilder car, compare
25-40 min: Porsche 919 Hybrid on Fuji Modern — See how 30 years changed racing
40-60 min: Toyota TS050 vs Audi R18 — 3-lap race, AI 80, Fuji Modern — Who wins?
This 1-hour plan is the best way to experience the pack. You will feel the difference between 1988 and 2016 instantly.
9. Future Of Project Motor Racing – What Straight4 Said At SimRacing Expo
Sales: Weekly sales tripled in last month, game is now “self-sustaining” after job cuts — per CCO Aris Vasilakos
Coming Soon: Hot Laps time-attack mode, 32-car AI grids on ALL platforms, rolling starts, PMR Connect league tools with SimGrid
No Year 2 Season Pass: Confirmed — Straight4 will sell DLC individually after Year 1
Support: Support confirmed through 2027, discussions for 2028 already underway
10. Where To Buy – Cheapest Price
Steam: $19.99, pre-order $17.99 (10% off) — Best for PC + mods
PlayStation Store: $19.99 / €19.99 — PS5
Xbox Store: $19.99 — Series X|S
Fanatical / Green Man Gaming: Check for extra 10-15% codes — often cheapest
Season Pass: If you own Group 5 + GT Icons + V8 Power + Japanese Prototypes already, Season Pass is cheaper than buying World Endurance alone.
