I think I ask this question about once a year, but I always forget the
answer. I miss driving down the corkscrew at Laguna Seca in that old
Papyrus sim. I'd even settle for a mediocre IRL sim as long as it
includes the Brickyard. Anything decent out there now or on the
horizon?

Pretty much the only chance to get a (hopefully)great CART sim, and for free!

I'm checking this WIP almost every other day. Can't wait for it's release...
Meanwhile, you could use this addon:

using the Indycar update.

The best you can hope for is that sopmeone makes such a mod for rFactor.
Last Indycar sim fell short because the dicks at Codemasters forced it out
the door before it was ready for prime time. They released it with no
mirrors on the cars even.

Try looking at Cybercup.com.
We ran a 10 race IRL series over the winter.

Mindycar and Champcar or CART your SOL.
There are a few odd ones by small teams in development but they are so
disorganized, scattered and small I don't think the sims will ever come out.
Most mods never see the light of day in the computer world. IDT looked for a
while, but it's been years and no news other than a few average screenshots
which were not that good imo for a so called retail product. It was suppose
to be out by now but I don't think it will happen for a long time, they are
trying to lay to many eggs in to many nests :-) If you know what I mean.
I do miss those ICR2 and Rendition 3D card days. I did re-install ICR2 once
a few years ago..all 6 megs of it lol. Even with the rendition card 3D
version it looked horrible on my old PC. The card died about 20 mins after
that..therw out the entire 10 year old PC :-)

One of the best simulators of all time if you can get a copy of this
gem - Cart Precision Racing. A true classic long remembered by all in the
sim community.

That game was a big pile of crap lol. The one made by M$ and TRI?
TRI gave it like what..1 patch and left it for dead. The AI was horrible and
online..or modem I can't remeber was non-functional.
More like long forgotten and buried. Thank god it was horrible.
You sure your not thinking of Indycar Racing 1 and 2? That was a classic.
