  • Simracing News! Corsair Shook and The Kings of Simracing Are Back! Traxion.gg is Alive!
    Jun 5 2024

    We're back to talk about sim racing news! While our segment isn't fully ready yet, we're making great progress. The big news, of course, is about Traxion! After Grind Finder acquired the Traxion IP, we couldn't be happier to welcome them back to our screens. Their exceptional journalism and remarkable video presentations bring a refreshing perspective to the sim racing community.


    However, one question lingers: will it be like before, or will Grid Finder evolve Traxion into something even better? There are many questions that need answers. Personally, I have a good feeling about it and can't wait to see what this new chapter holds for Traxion.
