Papyrus is currently working on another 'Legends' game. It's called NASCAR
Legends and I believe there are some screenshots and info available at
www.operationsports.com, can't remember the precise URL, but you can check
the Screenshots page and they will be available there.
Hope this helps ;)

concept.
Also, FWIW, GT Interactive Software Corporation has entered into a
long-term global publishing agreement with IMS Properties, Inc. for
the Indianapolis 500 and its sanctioning body, the Pep Boys Indy
Racing League. As a result, they *may* be producing a historic Indy
500 simulation.
For the best info I have on all this at this point in time, check out
