Where did it go WRONG with Project Motor Racing? Turbulent Launch Explained by The Creators

Wednesday, March 11, 2026 • Duration 01:01:59

Project Motor Racing’s launch was… sub-optimal, to be kind. Graphics issues, strange collisions, unreliable multiplayer and an uninspired career mode were layered over inconsistent driving dynamics. A hot mess, Traxion delivered a 5/10 verdict. Since then, however, a spate of patches, updates and hotfixes have tried to quell our concerns, and later this month, a ‘Patch 2.0’ will be released. To understand what went wrong, and what the future holds, here’s a frank interview with Kevin Boland, Founder and Chief Development Officer at PMR creator Straight4 Studios.

A turbulent time for the racing game industry

Wednesday, March 4, 2026 • Duration 33:41

Well, it's official. After pumping up Nacon's tyres two weeks ago, then last week covering its possible financial challenges, it's gone into insolvency... Sorry folks! Here, Thomas Harrison-Lord and Tom Bunten discuss the possible fallout and why it doesn't automatically mean the end. Then there's the related Rennsport and Nacon breakup, and another split, in the form of Maverick Games and Amazon - but neither spells the end either, and they analyse the new screenshot of the latter. Tom Bunten's initial iRacing Arcade impressions are also brought to the table. For sim racing fans, there's a new iRacing season on the way, and the duo go through your latest feedback.

Season 2 · Episode 11

Monday, August 9, 2021 • Duration 41:55

GRID Legends is a blockbuster new racing game from EA and Codemasters that centres around an extended reality story, but what came before this 2022 release? Lots of other GRID games, of course! In this episode of the Traxion Podcast, we run through the TOCA lineage of the GRID series, which of the main GRID games we think was the best and why you should care about the future of the franchise. It’s a patchy history, filled with amazing ideas, lots of solid racers and one outstanding release. Here then, is why you should pay attention to GRID Legends and why we hope it’s a return to form.

Sim racer turned REAL racer with Rudy van Buren | S02E10

Season 2 · Episode 10

Monday, August 2, 2021 • Duration 36:08

Rudy van Buren has twice finished on the podium this season in the highly competitive Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland, but his career path to this point has been far from conventional. Starting out in karting, Rudy then focused his effort on sim racing, where his natural talent shone through. This culminated in two GPVWC titles in 2017, the Superleague and International Touring Cup and winning the inaugural World's Fastest Gamer competition to become the McLaren F1 team's simulator driver for 2018. The 29-year-old Dutchman came third in the GT Pro Series and become a Mahindra simulator development driver in 2020 - a role he still holds today, with aspirations of having a test soon. In our latest podcast episode, Thomas Harrison-Lord speaks to the talented esports and motorsport competitor on the differences between sim and reality.

What we'd like to see in the new NASCAR game | S02E08

Season 2 · Episode 8

Monday, July 19, 2021 • Duration 42:54

Last week, Motorsport Games spoke to IGN about the upcoming NASCAR game, the first in an all-new series that replaces the existing NASCAR Heat franchise. Utilising the tyre and handling physics of PC-sim platform rFactor 2 and the Unreal game engine for graphics, a selection of static images has been revealed showing off the new look and additional attention to detail. Not much else has been revealed, other than the working title of ‘NASCAR 21’ and the inclusion of a detailed paint booth for customer paint scheme creation. Joining us this week is NASCAR expert and journalist Justin Melillo to comb through the finer details of the details, plus a look back at the Heat series and a current round up of official NASCAR content within existing titles. Think of this as a current NASCAR-in-gaming state of play plus our hopes and dreams for the upcoming release.
