Need Another Racing Game?

Take a look at SuperCharged -- on Kickstarter now.

For many of my readers, the title of this post is a rhetorical question... but why this one?

I'll be honest.  I've never played SuperCharged.  But I know Jim Dietz.  In fact, without Jim Championship Formula Racing would never have happened.  Jim loved Speed Circuit and wanted an updated version and signed me on to do that for Jolly Roger Games back before Ultra Pro bought the whole kit and kaboodle.

Now Jim is back to publishing games, but with a twist. Game sales now help fund the Jim Dietz Foundation for supporting current and future teachers.  Read more on the Foundation's Web Site.

We all have gotten used to treating Kickstarter as a pre-order system -- and I certainly do that myself.  But the original idea of Kickstarter was to allow regular folk to support projects they believe in.  And F1 history is something I find really interesting, so I'm in.

Check it out.

Thanks.
