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.
