The other news is Image Space Inc's new game, rFactor. It is going to be "a
mixed-class circuit road racer" with "a target audience of PC race-sim
aficionados, car enthusiasts, full-time racers, and even professional racing
schools." Even better, it should be out before the end of the year. (page 49)
Sounds awesome, surprised no one else reported that.
What's up with the entire sim racing development community pulling its
shit together all at once? I'm almost expecting a new update on
west-racing.com.

hahaha....classic
I could have said something about new LFS/Netkar/Racer updates, but
the Wests are easier targets. =)

Here's the link to rFactor (but not much there yet).

I'm hoping that they're making a Gran Turismo for the PC.
Well they were all able to shed corporate shackles at about the same
time. I'm sure there has been plenty of inovation squashed by the bean
counters. Now that a Flight Simulator business model is in the works, they
can work on a core product and sell addons without having to meet corporate
schedules of a product each season.
Do we owe this new-found freedom to the mod groups?

If the Racer developer was able to drive to the Wests development studio,
they would have proven they were WAY too fast to be a part of the team, and
would have been immediately fired.
