10TACLE and SimBin today announced the follow up to their racing sim, GTR, you guessed it, GTR 2. I didn't play the first one, but it did go down well with the sium racing crowd.

Come summer 2006, GTR 2 will set new standards all over again! The new DirectX9 graphics engine ensures that the race cars and circuits are portrayed in a more detailed and photorealistic way than ever before, and the sensation of speed experienced with the HP-beasts is even more immersive, thanks to the improved driving model.

Here's the first two GTR 2 screenshots.
