Great to see a Site with a longer memory then the last year of hype.
Love the simulation list where I could find a lot of my old freinds.
2 suggestions. I did not see 1999 Rally Championship(Mobil 1) and It would be nice If the user profiles had the same list as checkboxes It could serve as a forum classification of some kind.
I was surprised how many of those games I have!
Very nice place to come home to.

Really glad you've looked at the site. I know a lot of people come in for the news posts, etc, but I don't think many visit the other areas yet (not too surprised, they are very WIP).
There's a lot of things I simply haven't gotten to yet, and I try not to make myself burn out by basically going back and forth to different software, eras, genres of racing, etc. I do own Rally Championship so it's certainly one I will get to. Do you have fond memories of it? What stood out for you?
The idea with the "museum" section of the site is that you should be able to find a car and see every sim it's ever featured in, same for tracks. But also I want to list every sims major feature so you can see (as an example) which ones simulated rubber build up at all, which were pre-determined rubbering, which were dynamic, etc, so you can see even who was first.
The only one I have basically 'finished' entering is Indy 500.

You can see a full write-up, the cars, the track, and those cars and track link back to Indy 500.

There's plenty more we're working on adding over time, the sim museum is a WIP very much.
Glad you're enjoying it

The forum format and the encyclopedic content of a good site are not very trendy. This is not the instant gratification of soclal media. You may endup with a bunch of old guys like me.
RC2000 is not as much a simulation of the cars but of the places. I still play it for the sake of the long rides in the dark.
It took me a long time to have the money to buy a decent PC to run the game.
Games would improve faster then my icome in those days.
Wow! a site with an historian. great idea.

Oh ABSOLUTELY forums aren't the thing to have. People want the instant nature of Discord, etc. But I am finding it such a shame that great information is just lost forever. You have a constant cycle of the same question being asked over and over because nobody will use Discord search in a live chat. And of course Google doesn't index Discord either... Over time I have begun to realize it's a very wasteful way to discuss things in terms of history and the ability to archive information.
