About this episode

The episode discusses the latest updates in Assetto Corsa Rally, the FIA's involvement in sim racing, and reviews of various racing games.

Assetto Corsa Rally has added multiplayer, but how is it, and what do the Traxion team want to see from the sim next? Then there’s the FIA’s new hillclimb competition, should the FIA create such events? How about Star Wars: Galactic Racer, is it any good? All these questions are answered by Thomas Harrison-Lord, Ross McGregor and John Munro on this episode of the Traxion Control Podcast. We also answer some of your questions, have a little quiz and consider the IndyCar game, licensing costs and those suspicious Grand Prix re-releases. Let us know your thoughts and podcast questions in the YouTube and Spotify comments, or in our Discord.
