Grand Prix Legends

Description

Grand Prix Legends is a highly accurate racing simulator based upon the 1967 Formula 1 season, cars and tracks.

More of a simulation than a game, such is the extent to which the physics and behaviour of the cars (which were notoriously difficult to drive anyway) are emulated, this is a serious PC racers choice. To get the best from Grand Prix Legends you require at least a steering wheel and pedals. Graphics are either Direct 3d or Glide (3dfx).

You can take part in practice, single races (with variable opposition) or the full 1967 Grand Prix season racing on classic tracks like Monaco, Rouen, Kylami, Monza and the 174 corner, 14 mile long old Nurburgring circuit.

Internet & network play is also supported.
