The folks at Valve continue to give Steam customers (at least those in North America) some cool package deals on games on their service. The latest is for the upcoming SimBin developed racing simulation GTR Evolution. This latest game is actually an extension of the previously released RACE 07 and contains nearly 50 cars, 19 different tracks and both a simulation and arcade racing mode.

GTR Evolution actually contains the full RACE 07 game and Steam is offering people who pre-order GTR Evolution 10 percent off its regular $39.99 price before it launches on September 1. If you already own RACE 07 you can download GTR Evolution from Steam; it is also priced at 10 percent off its regular price of $19.99.

The first trailer for GTR Evolution has been released, offering a look at Simbin Development Team AB's forthcoming PC racer. Alongside the trailer's debut is the game's official website, which offers picture galleries and a few tidbits of info regarding GTRE.

Boasting the game as the racing genre's next big evolution, the Simbin team touts GTR Evolution features such as having "Race-line in Time-Trial ... inspired by the Race-line in GTR2 but features more options," as well as "distinctive brake-markers to indicate braking points, [so that] the game can now show two Race-lines simultaneously. These Race-lines including their ghost-files and setups can be up- or downloaded in-game as well."

While there have been rumors about the amazingly beautiful Gran Turismo heading towards the PC, there's still other realistic racing games on the platform. Notably, GTR evolution has been announced for PC, heading towards the hands of racing fans come early July.

Featuring 19 tracks with 40 different layouts, as well as quite a few licensed cars, it's no slouch in the content department. If you're a fan of the GTR series, or realistic racing in general, take a look at it come early July.
