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.

They mentioned sim racing, so it must be legit.
In all seriousness this does look like a nice monitor. Not sure how many of the features I would use (speakers) or see support for in current-gen racing sims (HDR), but I figured I would share the press release I received anyway as I use a Samsung CHG90 48″ 32:9 Ultrawide myself and am a big fan of ultrawide. Is 21:9 really ultrawide??
Anyway, if interested you can buy it from here. Check out their trailer below as well.
