Sim Racer Magazine Vol 1 Iss 8 Zurück Ausgabe

WELCOME TO THE SEVENTH ISSUE OF SIM RACER!
Welcome sim fans!
It’s another packed issue, and we’ve gone a bit Forza-themed this time, with our attention on Forza Motorsport 6, Forza-branded equipment from Fanatec, and even a retrospective look at the older games. This is the first time we’ve had a chance to cover this series, so I think it was worth doing properly!
The Fanatec review represents the first deeper look into sim hardware, with the aim to cover more high-end equipment in this way over the next few months. We also had the chance to test Thrustmaster’s new T150, and we might be giving away one in a competition in the near future... watch this space. As promised, we have the beginnings of some virtual race coverage this issue, with the first report from the Virtual Endurance Championship. This should become a regular feature, hopefully along with other series too! We also have a chat with Hugo Luis and Wil Vincent of RaceSpot TV to find out more about the joys of sim broadcasting.
And in the world of real racing, Luisa was at the Italian Grand Prix weekend, and secured not one, but three interviews for us, including a fascinating chat with Mario Isola at Pirelli. The usual track guide is here, along with some further rallying tips, as I’m sure many of you are getting stuck into (or perhaps stuck halfway up a tree in) DiRT Rally’s recent Finland update.

As this is the last issue of 2015, I’d like to thank everybody for supporting the magazine this year. 2016 promises to be a revolutionary year for sim racing, and I can’t wait to find out more - see you there!
