Shortly after the release of Grand Prix Legends the sim racing community looked forward to another title that promised to offer a similar insight into historic racing. Trans-Am Racing ’68-’72 ultimately never released, a victim of a publishers shady dealings, but as a part of my research I uncovered a VHS of a never-released trailer for the game. Watch the trailer and read about what sim racing missed out on.
Video game development is full of names that have made groundbreaking steps you’ve never even heard about. Shawn Nash is a behind-the-scenes pioneer responsible for SODA Off Road Racing’s incredible physics, Papyrus’ graphical advancements and iRacing’s use of laser scan data for the physical track surfaces.
This interview with RSC, published in 2021, details his early life and career, through both his own company, Papyrus, Electronic Arts, to his time at iRacing.

A couple of days ago the RSC YouTube Channel passed 8000 hours of viewership on YouTube. This was helped a lot by the recent Dakar Desert Rally Review video which currently has 6,847 views and 563.7 hours watched. We’re not a big channel by any means (and most of the videos are extremely short), but it’s quite nice to hit this 8000-hour milestone. The best way to support the channel is by subscribing, which basically raises the likely minimum views any posted video will get.
The next big review will be the Logitech Pro Direct Drive wheel, so please subscribe for that. I’m also planning to try to acquire an RTX 4090 upon release and will do some direct comparisons between framerate on all the big sims with my current 3090. Fingers crossed they don’t sell out too quickly… If I don’t get one within the first day or two then I’ll probably not do that video. In the meantime I also have a few Richard Burns Rally stages to edit and upload.
