Motorsims Announces SCCA Can-Am Sim for Early 2000

Motorsport Simulations has announced SCCA Can-Am, a PC CD-ROM racing simulation due in early 2000 that will run both online and as a stand-alone retail game. It’s the first title under Motorsims’ long-term partnership with the Sports Car Club of America, and it follows the company’s AMA Superbike title, which is about to launch.

The game sets out to simulate the road-racing endurance battles that made Can-Am one of the most popular series of the early 70s, when famous chassis and engine manufacturers combined on open-cockpit, closed-wheel machines. It runs on Motorsims’ in-house engine, built from the ground up as an online racing network tuned to what sims demand, and it will include the SCCA’s popular SpecRacer Ford series as a training mode. Vintage Can-Am monsters in a proper simulation is an easy sell around here; early 2000 already feels far away.
