Assoluto Racing has made the jump to Nintendo Switch after 10 years as an iOS and Android title.
And as for the rally stages resetting you back to the start line if you crash – with all your elapsed time still counted – I don’t know what to say.
There is no dedicated Switch 2 version, so playing the game on Switch 2 sees you using ‘boost mode’ where you’re seeing the docked version of the Switch game playing at 1080p on your handheld.
Overall, Assoluto Racing on Switch has some merit in its smooth driving engine and car licenses, but even if it was free to play, I wouldn’t recommend it.
Score: 3/10 “Not the Gran Turismo-style game Switch is crying out for”

His talents on the ovals that primarily hosted the eNASCAR Coca Cola iRacing Series events is matched with his growing love for circuit racing.
Therefore, when Lowe wanted to evolve himself as a “hybrid racer”, he turned his head to the NASCAR Euro Series and its combination of pure racing and door-to-door battles.
With the support of his sim racing team BS+COMPETITION, Lowe joined the NASCAR Recruitment Test to prepare for his V8GP debut in 2025.
“I chose the NASCAR Euro Series because road courses have always been a lot of fun for me,” said the Gastonia native.

Indian Truck Simulator is a new trucking title from indie developer IronFort Studios.
Slated for a 2027 release, it’s available to Wishlist on Steam now, Using real National Capital Region map data, the game replicates the vast and intricate road network around India’s capital city, New Delhi.
The game will apparently feature mechanics like driver fatigue, which increases in hotter temperatures and at night, with players obliged to stop at roadside cafes for food.
A handy GPS system will also help you plan your way around New Delhi’s maze-like streets.
Thankfully, like the SCS truck sims, the longer highway sections will appear in abridged form.

There’s a dearth of contemporary motorcycle video games, and specifically, arcade-style motorcycle games.
Electronic Arts is trying to plug that gap with a re-release of Road Rash, and so too will Lowside, an upcoming solo-developed title.
It’s being developed by the creator and owner of Race Sim Central, Tim Wheatley, who has previously worked for the likes of iRacing, Motorsport Games and Straight4 Studios.
It aims to combine a low-poly visual style with accessible physics, for both present-day gamepads and a classic mouse input style.
For Lowside, there’s the expectation of up to 49 on-track rivals, race lengths of up to 40 laps and tyre compound selection.

At the qualifying rounds of the F1 Sim Racing India Open, there was something quite special about the atmosphere.
Through Mumbai Falcons and its association with the F1 Sim Racing India Open, he is looking at sim racing as a starting point for something much bigger: a structured pathway that could help discover and nurture India's next generation of racing talent.
I caught up with Ameet Gadhoke to discuss the future of sim racing in India, the school programme, how the transition to real-world racing could work.
AG: Sim racing can help develop important aspects of racing, including racecraft, reflexes, strategy, and an understanding of racing lines.
The F1 Sim Racing India Open ties into MFRL’s One in a Billion Hunt initiative.

Yes, Arma Reforger’s Rally DLC is available now, adding three rally car variants of recognisable Eastern-bloc favourites from Škoda, Lada and Trabant, including: Šárka 105 RS Sputnik 600 RS Dana 2001 RS A tractor.
Announced back in September, the Rally DLC adds a new Time Trial mode to Bohemia Interactive’s military sim, with players racing the clock to beat their own and other players’ stage times.
Although there’s no concurrent multiplayer mode, players can at least chase the ghost of the fastest leaderboard time.
In a neat touch, AI spectators can also apparently right your car after a big off, much like they do in Richard Burns Rally.
However, driving physics has not traditionally been Arma Reforger’s strong suit, so until we get a chance to playtest the new DLC, we’ll reserve judgment.

A practical reference for global buyers evaluating aluminum sim racing rig brands in China.
An aluminum profile sim racing rig uses extruded aluminum sections and reinforced connectors to create a reconfigurable chassis.
Wheel mount, pedal mount, shifter mount and monitor mount can be repositioned; a sim racing cockpit with seat can be added; a foldable sim racing rig can serve entry-level space constraints; a heavy duty sim racing rig can support direct-drive and force-feedback hardware.
A foldable sim racing rig can serve first-time buyers, while an aluminum profile sim racing rig with a monitor mount, shifter mount and racing seat can serve higher-torque systems and multi-screen immersion.
The same modular logic supports an esports venue that needs a multi-position sim racing cockpit, a retailer that needs a display chassis, and a home buyer who needs an adjustable sim racing cockpit with seat.

Having selected ‘create’, a list appeared at the bottom left of the screen with his name and the empty slots.
The server will then appear on a list for anyone else who selects the same Sprint Race.
Once we were both ready, John clicked on ‘start session’, and the event loaded in.
Four Sprint Races could be selected on this particular game build.
Further activity types will be added (Time Attack sits alongside Sprint Races for now), details of which are for a later date.

Because of this, we have implemented automatic rate limiting and IP banning for out of normal requests.
Their existence is against the EULA and Privacy Policy, not because we’re trying to stifle creativity, but because of important service stability and legal concerns.
Other AI-created add-ons shouldn’t be affected While this statement and the associated changes are aimed at limiting stat-tracking programmes, several Le Mans Ultimate community members raised concerns about other community-created projects.
Traxion has confirmed with Motorsport Games that third-party AI-created add-ons such as fan-created career modes or broadcast tools are not affected.
“While we do recognise that many of you would like a public API, it’s not something we can support at this time,” it concluded.
