Groundbreaking news unfolds as we announce The Chicane Podcast will be at the first-ever US Sim Racing Expo in Chicago this September! This historic event brings together the biggest names in sim racing hardware and content creation under one roof, with confirmed appearances from SimCraft, SimuCube, GSI, Heusinkveld, Matt Malone, The Sim Pit, Lawrence Dusoswa, and many more. We've secured a special 10% discount code (CHICANE10) for our listeners, making this landmark gathering even more accessible. 

Beyond this exciting announcement, we dive deep into practical gear discussions that can enhance your sim racing experience right now. We compare wind simulator options across price points—from high-end SRS Hurricane systems to budget-friendly 3D printed alternatives—and explore their immersion benefits beyond just cooling. GT7 enthusiasts will appreciate our hands-on look at the new GT Race Engineer app, bringing much-needed race engineer functionality to PlayStation users through sophisticated WiFi connectivity.

For track enthusiasts, we spotlight Road Atlanta's flowing 2.5-mile layout and surprising 50-year history, while also answering listener questions about 3D printer recommendations based on our collective experience with different Bamboo Lab models. The episode culminates with a moving revelation: after 14 years of friendship that began on Xbox in 2011, Jason and Eric will finally meet in person at the Chicago Expo—a testament to the meaningful connections formed through sim racing. Will we see you there too?
