The Traxion Control Sim Racing Podcast

Which pricing model is the best in sim racing? We didn't pose that question, a Traxion community member did.

In this episode of the Traxion Control Podcast, we try to work out the answer, plus set our Forza Horizon 6 expectations, explain embargo races and award the best April Fools' gags.

Let us know your thoughts in the YouTube and Spotify comments and if you have any questions for the team!

This week, with the Tom's away at SXSW in Austin, the Scots have taken over!

From the outside looking in, it's been a quiet start to the year for the world of sim racing, with more casual games taking centre stage. But, as is often the case, things are very much bubbling beneath the surface.

In this episode, as well as covering the current happenings with Le Mans Ultimate, iRacing, RaceRoom and Project Motor Racing, John Munro and Traxion Senior Editor Ross McGregor dissect the latest Forza Horizon 6 reveals, and discuss your favourite rally games.

As always, let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below! And if you have any questions, we will endeavour to answer them in future episodes.

Project Motor Racing’s launch was… sub-optimal, to be kind. Graphics issues, strange collisions, unreliable multiplayer and an uninspired career mode were layered over inconsistent driving dynamics.

A hot mess, Traxion delivered a 5/10 verdict.

Since then, however, a spate of patches, updates and hotfixes have tried to quell our concerns, and later this month, a ‘Patch 2.0’ will be released.

To understand what went wrong, and what the future holds, here’s a frank interview with Kevin Boland, Founder and Chief Development Officer at PMR creator Straight4 Studios.
