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.

Most famous for his Grand Prix series that were published under the MicroProse label until 2000, his career unceremoniously ended when his studio was shut down by Infogrames and the Xbox version of Grand Prix 4 cancelled just prior to release.

A few days back the folks at Reiza posted their April, 2020 Dev Update for Automobilista 2.
The update centered mainly around the (now released) 0.8.7 update that added a Time Trial mode (see image below) and 1986 Opala Stock Cars.
They also mentioned that Kyalami and the Sigma P1 will be the next content due for release this coming week.
Also confirmed was licensing for the historic Lotus 72D, McLaren M23 and Brabham BT44. While some of these cars are available in other titles, this is great news for AMS2 users. There was no text, but the image below was also posted, leading many to assume licensing of Porsche.
AMS2 is a comprehensive simulation of the Brazilian motorsports scene, featuring all major Brazilian racing series, race tracks and manufacturers, as well as a selection of modern and classic content from around the world.
