"iRacing’s 2027 Season 1 build will add the Lamborghini Temerario GT3 alongside three new circuits when the quarterly update arrives this December. iRacing president Tony Gardner has confirmed Circuit Paul Ricard, Circuit Bugatti and Winchester Speedway for the same release.

Gardner revealed the December content during the latest episode of the official iRacing Downshift podcast. The new Lamborghini GT3 will join a class that already includes machinery from Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, Mercedes-AMG, McLaren, Ford and several other manufacturers."
 
It will probably be the best car which always seems to happen with new additions in GT3.
Most likely, it has been pretty successful in 2026 considering it is brand new and the first GT3 to be developed entirely in-house by Lamborghini, several wins (with some taken away in DTM as well) and generally good reliability. So it isn't too far fetched for it to be the meta initially whilst they, first and foremost, try to sell it, but also get the BoP right.

Had a successful weekend/new week despite racing with the flu. The Porsche Cup at Bathurst beat me up, I love the track but I struggled to get a good flow and was quite a long way off the pace, even for me. I will caveat that I switched to a load cell brake setup going into the weekend so I did have to make significant adjustment to my driving style as well whilst I got used to that.

That in turn has helped me find some extra pace and confidence, particularly in cars that lack ABS, but also in cars that have it as it becomes much easier to modulate and not trigger ABS. So Road America in the Porsche Cup so far this week has been immensely enjoyable as I have had really good pace and confidence there, couple of podiums across fixed and open series. A top 5 and top 10 in the TCR at Mugello across open and fixed, top 5 in Ferrari Challenge at Lime Rock last night, challenging in the dark and such a short bumpy, narrow track for those monster 296 Challenge cars.

Last night jumped into the Ringmeister series which is using the Street Stocks this week and I have to say, that is such a fun combination, done a few races with a mix of results, podium, 17th and others, but the racing has been clean and respectful and that has boosted me to fast-track promotion into a Class B license which I am delighted about as I should now be able to get a full 8 rounds of a GT3 series in, will likely do the European regional one.
 
@MagpieRacer if you haven’t yet, look into getting a haptic reactor for your brake too. They’re relatively cheap, and the ABS feedback they offer is brilliant for iRacing. I’m a lot better at not burning up my front tyres after installing one on my brake pedal lol.
