rFactor is another product of a small American development studio Image Space Incorporated. In the past, the company created racing games for Electronic Arts, the giant of electronic gameplay. ISI is responsible for such projects as Sports Car GT, F1 Challenge '99-'02 or NASCAR Thunder 2004.

One of the elements distinguishing the described racer from other competing products is its unusual construction. rFactor consists of a series of modules. Some of them are available in the basic version, others can be added directly by players (e.g. after downloading from the official website). It is also a great field to show off for authors of various modifications. What is interesting, you can also change the finished elements, such as the course of a career prepared by the manufacturers. The basic element of this race is the "SR Grand Prix", i.e. races of vehicles representing many different classes, held on asphalt sections. It is worth mentioning that the player has a significant influence on the course of the race itself. Even before starting it, you can choose one of several available classes or you can set the level of artificial intelligence of your opponents. In addition to the extensive single player mode, there is also a mode for network skirmishes.
