The Traxion Control Sim Racing Podcast

Show Notes

There are new details about NASCAR 26, and Assetto Corsa Rally has confirmed new stages.

These new stories spark a debate among the Traxion team about the future of yearly sports releases, what we’d like to see from Assetto Corsa Rally next, whether or not a console update for Assetto Corsa Competizione was worth it and if Pikes Peak will ever, ever, make it into Gran Turismo 7.

As ever, let us know your thoughts in the comments, and join Thomas Harrison-Lord, Tom Bunten and John Munro for the latest Traxion Control Podcast episode.
