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.
ICR2 is a simulation of the 1995 IndyCar Series. It featured 15 tracks and a selection of chassis and engines.
Re-released as CART Racing.
Join Jon Denton, Tim Wheatley, Simon Croft and guest(s) as they discuss sim racing and racing games past, present and future.
Kunos have had a busy week! Assetto Corsa Competizione received an update and new DLC pack, a new Web site was launched for the franchise and they hit a peak of 9400 users on patch release. The 2023 GT World Challenge Pack DLC added the Ferrari 296 GT3, Porsche 911 (992) GT3 R, Lamborghini Huracàn EVO2 and Circuit Ricardo Tormo – Valencia track, but most notable to users is the fact that the v1.9 patch offers significant positive changes to the tire model, suspension and aero, offering users much improved feel of what the car is doing on the race track. The cars were all previewed prior to release, but the track had to wait until Monday to receive a walkthrough video (that is worth watching, by the way).
Many more screenshots can be seen below the trailer for the DLC pack and v1.9 build notes.
