TORCS

TORCS is an open source 3D racing cars simulator game using OpenGL.

TORCS's goal is to have programmed robots drivers racing against each others.
You can also drive yourself with either a wheel or keyboard or mouse.

TORCS is available on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, OpenSolaris and Windows.

• Modify/store/load car setups during practice and qualifying sessions.
• Improved content (totally reworked racetrack e-track-2; improved e-track-6 and wheel-2).
• The ability of robots to change the car setup during a pit stop.
• New Robottools API calls for handling car setups.
• Improvements to the simulation engine (1.5 way LSD, third element).
• Adjustments to the car categories and physical models.
• A new 4 speed stock car and category.
