Virgin Becomes Speed Demon
Two racing titles, endorsed by the Professional SportsCar Racing circuit, are part of Virgin's sponsorship deal.
Virgin Interactive has set its sights on burning rubber. It's now sponsoring the Professional SportsCar Racing Inc. circuit, which means that Virgin signs and stickers will be found all over racetracks in the Exxon Supreme GT series. This also provides the company with a chance to develop games based on the circuit's cars.
The arrangement calls for Virgin to create two racing titles with the endorsement of Professional SportsCar Racing - the first game, tentatively titled Professional SportsCar Racing, is scheduled to be released in late 1998 for both the PC and PlayStation. It will feature aerodynamically accurate cars such as Ferraris, Porsches, Corvettes, Acura NSXs, McClaren F1s, and Ford Esperantes.
