Redline Racers
Virtual racing team gets sponsored by Thrustmaster
Although most of the media interest in professional gaming has been centered around competitions using first person shooters like the Quake series so far, there is also a big community based around motor racing games. Now British virtual racing group "Team Redline" have announced a sponsorship deal with Thrustmaster, which will see the hardware giant funding them "to enhance the team's performances and provide the support and backing necessary to keep us at the top of sim racing". Having recently won recent "Grand Prix 3" and "Grand Prix Legends" competitions, the team is now "looking forward to a successful future".
