This pack brings the Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 to Assetto Corsa in DSG7 and 6-speed manual versions, heavily updated by Kem Alkemest with graphics work by TheFerraryGuy. The engine delivers 420 Nm between 2100 and 5350 rpm and 320 hp between 5500 and 6500 rpm.
Power goes through all-wheel drive with an active rear torque differential, and launch control is built in: select the MGU-K setting to enable it, hold the KERS button while accelerating and release it as you shift into first. You can choose Street, Hyper-Road or Semi-Slick tyres, and the force feedback works with soft lock.
On the visual side there is a working Android screen, a reversing dash camera, a licence plate, turn signals, wipers that shake in the wind, damage deformation and self-lit lights from the DRLs to the interior LEDs. It is a great pick for hot hatch fans who want a detailed, constantly refined Golf R.
