Papyrus Closes Its Doors

Monday May 10, 2004
Some sad news for the millions of people who love to race NASCAR on their PCs. Papyrus, makers of the NASCAR Racing 2003 Season and a number of other great racing games has closed its doors for good. EA Sports bought the exclusive rights to NASCAR PC games last year for their NASCAR Thunder series and apparently this is the result.

I'd like to thank the folks at Papyrus Racing Games for the thousands of hours of enjoyment I have received from their products dating back to the original Indianapolis 500 title all the way to their final NASCAR Racing 2003 Season. With the work of dedicated sim enthusiasts like Project Wildfire I am sure that I will spend many more hundreds of hours with Papyrus racing products.

Thank you all, and good luck in the future. Your true talents and passion will hopefully find you back in sim racing development soon.
