Shortly after the release of Grand Prix Legends the sim racing community looked forward to another title that promised to offer a similar insight into historic racing. Trans-Am Racing ’68-’72 ultimately never released, a victim of a publishers shady dealings, but as a part of my research I uncovered a VHS of a never-released trailer for the game.

There’s no mistaking the fact that the WRC series has got better each and every release. WRC 9 is my wake-up call on this franchise.
WRC 9 includes 100 special stages including Kenya, Japan, and New Zealand from the 2020 championship. The physics are decent, probably better than DiRT Rally 2.0, and until Codemasters come out with their WRC title in a couple of years this is your best way to simulate the real series…
WRC is a leading off-road simulation franchise developed by Kylotonn. Their sixth rally title, it includes more realistic gameplay and more content than WRC 8, including three new rallies, 35 new special stages, custom championships and completely redesigned engine sounds. It is their second title to be released as an Epic Store exclusive.
