If you ever played Papyrus’ seminal Grand Prix Legends then you’ve read his name. Rich began working as a tester on NASCAR Racing (1994) and was with Papyrus at the end. In this interview, published in 2022, we discuss his time at the legendary studio and the design of Grand Prix Legends, including initial feelings of hurt at not being asked to join iRacing.
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.
Kunos released another update for their 1.7 version of ACC today. The update mostly appears to fix issues with content (cars and tracks), but also correctly a couple of issues with offline British GT championships.

– Minor volume tweaks to Porsche GT3 and Cup cars.
– Improved audio blend with the F7 camera.GRAPHICS:
– Fixed incorred blurred custom rim on the Camaro GT4.
– Fixed LOD UV issue on the AMR V8 GT3.
