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.
Video game development is rarely about one man, but if it was, then Terence Groening should certainly get a mention for his contributions to the genre as the man responsible for the physics of Sportscar GT, EA’s PC F1 and NASCAR games of the early 2000’s, rFactor, rFactor 2 and every title and rFpro simulator that spawned from ISI’s engine.
This interview with RSC details his early life and career, through to him joining iRacing in 2021.
Studio 397 today released another free Tatuus car to join the existing T318, F4 T104, FT50, FT60, MSV F3 T106, PM18 and USF 17. This new car runs exclusively in the BRDC British Formula 3 championship. The Tatuus MSV F3-020 packs a six-speed sequential gearbox operated by paddle shifters on the steering wheel rather than a more traditional stick shift design, and unique to the BRDC British F3 Championship the car also features a limited-slip differential.
Here is the workshop item to subscribe to. Below you can see a lap of Spa and then a few screenshots.
