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.
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.
Saber have released their newest SnowRunner mission expansion, Public Energy, bringing a section of North Carolina to the game complete with a power plant, water dam and two new vehicles.

SnowRunner Brings the Power Back with New “Season 12: Public Energy” Expansion, Out Now
PARIS – Jan. 31, 2024 – SnowRunner, the blockbuster off-roading experience from Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment, today releases its third expansion, “Season 12: Public Energy,” on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and Mac. Watch Season 12’s overview trailer for a first look at all the new content now available!
Available for free to all Year 3 Pass and 3-Year Anniversary Edition owners, Season 12 invites players to the green haven of North Carolina with four new maps, numerous points of interest like power plants, crop fields and an impressive water dam, two new vehicles, and a slew of new activities.
Spring North Carolina back into action!
North Carolina’s state government needs your help to establish a nuclear power station! Participate in the construction of its reactors and supporting facilities by delivering precious, heavy cargo and equipment with your trucks. When you’re not on construction and maintenance missions, you’ll lend a hand to local farmers to cultivate their crops, and even aid local institutions in monitoring environmental pollution.
No adventure is complete without new vehicles. The MTB 8106 is a formidable scout thanks to its fantastic ground clearance and upgradable engine for superior fuel efficiency – perfect for pulling scout trailers without breaking a sweat. For the most arduous tasks, however, the FEMM 37-AT is an imposing heavy-duty truck capable of handling any terrain and delivering all cargo without limitations.
A set of 10 new stickers will also be available for all players as a free update.
A fourth year of content updates is on the way!
And there’s even more to come! SnowRunner’s Year 4 Pass is now available for purchase, with four new seasons packed with exciting content to come later this year! Players who purchase the Year 4 Pass will unlock four exclusive vehicle skins for the ANK MK28, the International PayStar 5070, the Caterpillar CT681, and the Western Star 6900 TwinSteer base game vehicles.
“Season 12: Public Energy” is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and Mac — and automatically granted to all owners of the Year 3 Pass. Save on all the content released since launch with SnowRunner’s 3-Year Anniversary Edition. For more information, check out the game’s page on the Focus Store.
