Shortly after the release of Grand Prix Legends the sim racing community looked forward to another title that promised to offer a similar insight into historic racing. Trans-Am Racing ’68-’72 ultimately never released, a victim of a publishers shady dealings, but as a part of my research I uncovered a VHS of a never-released trailer for the game. Watch the trailer and read about what sim racing missed out on.

Traxion.gg (owned by Motorsport Games, who also own rFactor 2 developer Studio 397) today previewed the upcoming Monza release and BMW M4 Class 1 (DTM) car with an online race. The car and track both look superb and it is really nice to get another car of this quality for free. Monza will be €8.99.
Below is an edit showing a hotlap and race footage. The original livestream is here. At the end of the livestream they also announced, sort of, the BMW M4 GT3. There was no ingame footage, or unless I missed it any explicit mention of it being licensed, but it would be a bit weird if they randomly chose to show the real car being built. Thankfully about an hour later the car was confirmed via a tweet by BMW Motorsport for “later this year.”
