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.

It’s been a looooong time coming, but it seems the new UI for rFactor 2 is almost here. This is an interesting one for me because obviously ISI announced they were going to make a newer tech UI for rF2 long before S397 took over, but ultimately decided not to. I think the amount of time it’s taken the highly-skilled and determined team at S397 to get this done, after ISI decided not to, says a lot about just how much of a task this was.
S397 did a special livestream to show off the UI at SimExpo, you can watch it below or look at my screengrabs to see the main screens. It’s also very possible that the video will disappear from Twitch at some point.
rF2 is a simulation designed to simulate any type of multi-wheeled vehicle of any era, supports modding directly, and features an advanced physics, suspension, and tire model.
