Asobo, known today as the Microsoft Flight Simulator developer, created groundbreaking technology for large scale maps that was intended to be used in a high quality rally raid title. It was never released and ended up as FUEL, a post-apocalyptic open-world racing game. What happened?

Video game development is rarely about one man, but if it was, then Terence Groening should certainly get a mention for his contributions to the genre as the man responsible for the physics of Sportscar GT, EA’s PC F1 and NASCAR games of the early 2000’s, rFactor, rFactor 2 and every title and rFpro simulator that spawned from ISI’s engine.

This interview with RSC details his early life and career, through to him joining iRacing in 2021.

Reiza posted their monthly development update a couple of days ago. As always, it’s full of interesting information and commentary, but here are the main news items (with screenshots below):

– 1.2 Update and USA DLC scheduled for June 4, 2021.
– USA DLC will feature Daytona, Long Beach and Laguna Seca.
– USA DLC will feature Cadillac DPi.V.R, BMW M8, Corvette C8.R and Porsche 911 RSR cars.
– BMW M4 GT4 will be a free car with 1.2.
– Real weather, date and live track presets (allowing seasonal visual changes, etc) will be in 1.2.
– Many physics advancements in 1.2.
– A.I. improvements in 1.2.
– FMOD sound improvements in 1.2.
– Create your championship UI is in 1.2.
– Users should delete Documents\Automobilista 2\savegame\tuningsetups for 1.2.
– If I understand correctly you can race on a track from the USA DLC even if you don’t own it, as long as the host does.

Here are their purchase options for the new DLC:

Essentially, there will be 4 ways of acquiring the contents of the pack:

Buying the Racin´ USA Pt1 as standalone – self explanatory, buying Pt1 separately from any other DLC or Expansion available or to be released for AMS2
Buying the Racin´ USA Full Expansion Pack – This Pack includes Part 1 along with parts 2 and 3 to be released later in 2021
Buying the 2020-2022 Season Pass – if you buy this or already have it, you are all set in terms of AMS2 DLCs all the way to the end of 2022
Buying the Premium Expansion Packs – this will be a new option targetted for those who bought the Premium Track Pack, essentially expanding that purchase into a full 2020-2022 Season Pass.
