Latest RaceRoom update patch notes:

Game:

• Added a Volume slider in Sound Options for Brake Squeal volume.
• Skidmarks left on the track are no longer a fixed width but instead match the size of the tyre that suffered for it.
• Reduced the floating above ground of the skidmark decals when seen from a low angle camera.
• Underbody scraping sounds are now played in replay sessions. Also adjusted volume and fade for them.
• FFB Multiplier in Car Setup menu now allows going up to 10.0 (was 5.0)
• Autoclutch assist is now forced ON when H-Pattern option is enabled but no direct gear buttons are mapped.

• Fixed a game crash reported upon exiting certain replay sessions
• Fixed Input Meter HUD tool that would wrongly appear at the beginning of a race session.

Also this one is a great and technical track. Already did a large amount of laps with the cars that have the improved physics. Ford GT GT1 the physics, the sounds, the motion rumble 👍. They did an outstanding job!

The new Nissan GT1 is a blast to drive. free tip: No full throttle when corner exiting during the first lap. Warm the tires and you can push the limits of this car. Have fun like I do!

SuperGT coming??

Hmm... sounds like there may have been a way to trick the game into letting you use the clutch without an H-pattern device, but they "fixed" it.

Upgraded physics is surely a good thing, and it's nice to see Motegi getting a little love.

Very cool Is the IndyCar track layout available ?

 

[Dopplegagger]

Unfortunately the High speed Ring portion of the course is not available. The only layouts are the Full road course, the East Course and the West Course.

It's still a blast to drive though. I use to run it when it was in Forza 2. I remember the track being pretty difficult. Much to my surprise, I fell right into the R3E version. Forza 2's physics probably made the course tougher, who knows?
