Direct drive wheels aren’t cheap. This is an accepted sim racing truth, like death, taxes, and lag bumps ruining your final lap. But one company is aiming to change that, and it’s taken one important step towards making that goal a reality.

Whoopsies. While Forza Motorsport 7 players have two more days to wait for the next car pack, it seems Microsoft has let the cat out of the bag early. We’ve got the full contents of the next car pack right here, and it looks like a good one.

Get ready for America’s motorsport this week. For our latest Forza Motorsport 7 Photo Mode Competition, we’re focusing in on NASCAR.

Forza Motorsport 7 players clamoring for the next game update will have to wait a little longer. Turn 10 has confirmed the car pack is coming Thursday instead of tomorrow.

After three Le Mans victories and six World Championship titles, the Porsche 919 retired from competitive racing last year. Now it’s doing a victory lap — or more appropriately, laps, as it travels the globe in 2018. The goal? Outright lap records at some of the world’s greatest circuits.

It’s time for another round of our Project CARS 2 Photo Mode Competition. We hope you like McLarens and Mitsubishis!

Get ready to get dirty. Milestone has announced the next title in its motocross series, and it arrives in less than three months.

Kylotonn Games kicked off the month with an update for its two-wheeled game. The latest TT Isle of Man patch is out on PS4 and PC, and it brings some welcome improvements to the title.

Turn 10 is keeping with tradition and has released the latest batch of DLC clues. With seven new cars touching down on April 10, the guessing game has begun.

In news that should surprise few, Polyphony Digital has scheduled a new Gran Turismo Sport update for early next week. Likely leading the charge is Audi’s Vision GT concept.

UPDATE: The original Instagram post by Girardo & Co has been deleted.

PC players of Project CARS 2 found a surprise this morning. Slightly Mad Studios has pushed out the latest update — dubbed 5.0 — on the platform first, and it comes with a bonus car.

It appears 2017’s F1 esports championship was only a taster. Earlier today, Formula One announced the 2018 competition, and it promises to be an even bigger event than last year.

The biggest esport initiative in Forza history has started. With over $250,000 in prizes up for grabs, the 2018 Forza Racing Championship season should provide plenty of close racing.

With less than week until its reveal, Audi has shown a new glimpse of its upcoming Vision GT car.

With the first quarter of 2018 done and dusted, Xbox is kicking off Spring with a sale. Naturally this means plenty of savings in our favorite genre, and we’ve collected all the best deals here.

Is it April already? According to the calendar, and a bunch of bizarre automotive news bits, it is.

On days like today, Fox Mulder’s “trust no one” warning feels especially relevant. It’s April Fools’, and that means plenty of tall tales. The crew at Turn 10 is embracing the trickster attitude however, with a variety of silly events opening up in Forza Motorsport 7 today.

The smell of burnt tires is in the air. The 2018 Formula D season starts in a week, and we’ve teamed up with one of the stars of the show to bring his newest car to GT Sport ahead of time.

Now that’s certainly unexpected. The latest GT Sport update brought Tsukuba to the party, and with it, a subtle ad… for another sim racer.
