I think a historic Trans am sim would sell well. Those are very popular
cars and that whole era of auto's is extremely popular.

That sucks. :(

ICR2 is one of the games that got me into this hobby.

What they COULD do is release the ICR2 code into the public domain and let
the private users create an opengl version of it..........
thats what Papyrus COULD do.

IndyCar Racing 2 gives you a nice feeling of 80's Turbo F1 nostalgia.

Drag racing. It would be a quick buck for Papy. Use the GPL engine.
Use cars from the 60s-70s. Have a handful of tracks. But have its
bread and butter as Online play.

If you don't believe me how fun it would be, try a dead start at the
Firestone side beside the parabolica. Race to the finish line on
VROC. I think a drag racing sim based on the GPL engine would be
fabulous.

I think it would have to be based in the 60s or 70s. Just think the
Hemi, Fastback and all the great muscle cars. And hey throw in some
FWD front engine 4-cylinder cars (from year 1990-2001) in there to
keep the kids happy. Like the Honda CRX, Toyota Celica, Honda Civic
SI/SIR, Acura Integra Type R, etc.
