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.
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.
iRacing posted an image on social media today that appears to show how weather will cross between sessions. The image appears to show a sky that gets more overcast, rain, then go back to overcast conditions once again. I have to assume that the qualifying session would begin with a wet track, gradually drying and increasing in speed throughout the session. Check out the image below.
