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.
Motorsport Games have today released the 2022 “Patriotic Park” for NASCAR 21: Ignition that I assume adds additional paint schemes to the 2022 car from the 2022 expansion.
Their description:
Players that purchase the NASCAR 21: Ignition – ’22 Season Expansion Patriotic Pack will receive 80+ alternate paint schemes, including those run during the Memorial Day and Fourth of July race weekends at Charlotte Motor Speedway and Road America, respectively. Also included in the NASCAR 21: Ignition – ’22 Season Expansion Patriotic Pack are two schemes from legendary driver Darrell Waltrip, with his historic schemes added to Next Gen cars.
