If you ever played Papyrus’ seminal Grand Prix Legends then you’ve read his name. Rich began working as a tester on NASCAR Racing (1994) and was with Papyrus at the end. In this interview, published in 2022, we discuss his time at the legendary studio and the design of Grand Prix Legends, including initial feelings of hurt at not being asked to join iRacing.
As a direct ancestor of iRacing, the ‘Grand Prix Legends engine’ had multiple stock car racing false starts, before eventually releasing as NASCAR Racing 4. The original NASCAR 3, cancelled and replaced by one that used NASCAR 2’s engine, is barely remembered.
Nacon have posted a second gameplay preview showing some onboard and chase cam footage from a section of the Snaefell Mountain Course in the upcoming TT Isle of Man – Ride on the Edge 3 title that is due for release in May, 2023.
The video description reads:
This time, it’s Peter Hickman’s turn to get on his bike and show you a new section of the Snaefell Mountain. At over 186mph on his BMW M1000RR, Peter Hickman dances on his bike from Ballacraine to Cronk Urleigh.
TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3 will be available May 2023 on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch.
A new screenshot was also posted over a week ago but I didn’t want to make a news post for it alone. So here it is:
New (second) trailer:

If you want to see a full lap based on the same laser scan, here is my video showing the full thing in the first TT Isle of Man – Ride on the Edge release. Obviously the new title has different visuals and physics:
