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. Watch the trailer and read about what sim racing missed out on.
As a direct ancestor of iRacing, the ‘Grand Prix Legends engine’ had multiple stock car racing false starts, before eventually releasing as NASCAR Racing 4. The original NASCAR 3, cancelled and replaced by one that used NASCAR 2’s engine, is barely remembered.

Steve Myers of iRacing tweeted the news a couple of days ago that the Big Block Modified and Lucas Oil Speedway DLC is scheduled to be released on Cyber Monday, November 28, 2022 for the World of Outlaws: Dirt Racing title on both Xbox and PlayStation.
