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.
Supercars and iRacing today announced that Sandown Raceway and Winton Motor Raceway will join the iRacing service in 2022 along with AI support for the Australian V8 Supercars. These join the existing Australian circuits of Mount Panorama, Phillip Island, and Oran Park. Read more about the tracks at the iRacing Web site and check out the laserscan pointclouds below:
