HistorX mod team is a group of dedicated and passionate people from all around the world, focused on the development of a free classic cars simulator, using as base rFactor, a racing simulator developed by ISI (Image Space Incorporated).

Their first release was Historic GT & Touring cars for rFactor, a free modification (mod) for rFactor (racing simulator). Part of it used as base Simbin’s GTL models, but the rest was developed from scratch, trying to get a accurate & realistic historic racing simulation.
