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.
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.
Studio 397 published their monthly roadmap update today. Here are the new bits of information in condensed form:
– New track coming: “had an opportunity to travel to a particularly wonderful racing venue” and it’s “NOT Daytona”
– KartSim PBR Update coming soon
– USF2000 PBR Update coming soon
– Silverstone, Portland and Indianapolis will be updated tomorrow
– Lime Rock update coming soon
Everything else in the update has been previously posted. What track do you think they have in the works? Feel free to discuss in our new forum.
