What's coming

More sims.
More feel.

Track Impulse launched with iRacing and now supports a growing lineup of sims, with zone-based output routing, profile sharing, a device setup wizard, GPU-accelerated rendering, per-effect audio shaping, native pedal haptics, per-lap suspension calibration, and a in-sim overlay app all shipped. Here's what's coming next. The roadmap is shaped by what users ask for most.

Auto-calibration baseline across every effect and sim
Per-lap suspension calibration is live for iRacing in v0.6.220, where the car and track learn their own range over the first few laps. Per-car engine redline memory followed in ACC, AC, and AC Rally in v0.6.223. Next, the same approach extends to ABS, wheel slip, and engine across every supported sim, so a couple of laps sets sensible levels everywhere without slider hunting.
PlannedMost requested
Bass shaker selection & per-zone EQ
Pick your bass shaker model per zone in the device wizard (Dayton BST-1, Buttkicker Mini LFE, Aura Pro, TST239, and more). Track Impulse then knows each shaker's useful frequency range and response curve, EQs the output so flat feels flat, and unlocks higher-frequency effects on capable shakers, up to 150Hz instead of the current 80Hz ceiling.
Planned
Per-car effect profiles
Different car classes behave differently under the shakers. Save a dedicated haptic profile for each car within a sim, so GT3, LMP2, and open-wheel setups won't need constant re-tuning. The per-car detection groundwork shipped in v0.6.223, so saving a full profile per car is the next step.
Planned
First-launch interactive tour
A guided in-app walk-through on first install that highlights each card, demos each effect with hold-to-test, and helps you build your first profile. The v0.6.201 setup guide covers device and routing setup; this adds a tour of the effects themselves.
Planned
Buttkicker amp auto-compensation
Auto-detect Buttkicker LFE Kit USB amps and apply the recommended -10dB compensation that most users miss.
Planned
In-app feedback & bug report
A one-click bug report button that captures your current config and the last 30 seconds of telemetry, then bundles it into an email so issues get diagnosed faster.
Sim pipeline — next titles in line Ordered by demand
In progressNext sim
BeamNG
High community demand and a natural fit for tactile transducers, with its soft-body physics driving rich suspension and impact detail. Reads BeamNG's own telemetry output for per-wheel suspension and surface feel.
Planned
American Truck Simulator
Now that Euro Truck Simulator 2 has shipped, its SCS stablemate is next. The same telemetry plugin SDK carries over directly, so engine rumble, load shift, gear changes, and surface texture all map across with little extra work.
Planned
EA Sports WRC & Dirt Rally 2.0
Two rally titles using the Codemasters UDP telemetry feed. The surface-detection tuning developed for AC Rally carries over directly, so gravel, tarmac, snow, and mud each get their own character.
Planned
rFactor 2
Reads the rFactor 2 internals shared memory plugin for chassis-level telemetry. The detailed tyre and suspension model unlocks a tactile feel close to LMU since they share an underlying physics lineage.
Planned
RaceRoom Racing Experience
R3E exposes a shared memory feed similar to ACC. Suspension, kerbs, slip, ABS, gear, and engine all map cleanly. Popular with GT3 and DTM fans.
Future
Forza Horizon 6
Less common in dedicated sim rigs but high community demand, reading the Forza data-out UDP telemetry feed once it ships.
Phase 2 — Hardware Q1 2027
In developmentFlagship
TD-8 hardware module
A purpose-built 8-channel USB device for Track Impulse. Plug in, select it from the dropdown, and race. No driver setup required. Hardware-optimised for the 10–80Hz shaker frequency range.
Planned
More pedal haptic devices
Following the Simagic HPR integration shipped in v0.6.104, support for additional pedal haptic hardware including Simucube ActivePedal, Simsonn VAM/VAM Pro, and SRP V-P kits. Each device gets the same direct-USB telemetry-driven approach, no audio channel required.
Phase 3 — Platform 2027+
FutureTop-voted
Turbo spool & wastegate effects
A dedicated rising-frequency effect tied to turbo pressure and RPM, with a sharp release on lift, for the spool and flutter you feel in a real turbo car.
FutureTop-voted
Surface type detection
Modulate road texture character based on what's actually under the wheels (gravel, cobble, dirt, painted lines) using the terrain data already exposed by AC Rally, AMS2, and others. Aimed at rally and mixed-surface racing.
Future
Telemetry replay tuning
Record a lap and replay it inside the app to tune effects against the saved telemetry rather than driving the same corner ten times. Visualises what each effect was outputting at every point on track, so you can find missed effects and dial in sensitivity without leaving the rig.
Future
Wind sim output channel
A dedicated speed-driven output that can drive cooling fans via a USB amp. Adds wind-sim support without forcing you to run a second tool alongside Track Impulse.
Future
Damage & contact effects
A sharp transient on wall and car contact, plus a sustained low rumble for broken suspension or damaged components, so you feel a hit or a problem without looking at the dash.
Future
Effect preset library per car class
One-click presets that load sensible baselines for GT3, LMP2, F1, hypercar, rally, and other major car classes across every supported sim. A starting point that's already 80% of the way there before you tune.
Future
Profile discovery & ratings
Extend the existing cloud profile system with browsable categories, ratings, and sim/car filtering so you can quickly find a dialled-in setup for your specific hardware and car combination.
Under consideration If demand is there

Ideas we'd build if enough users ask. Vote on the feedback page.

In progress
Mobile companion app
Adjust haptic settings from a phone or tablet while seated in the rig, no need to alt-tab or leave the seat to tune.
Idea
Per-track quirks database
A community-maintained list of "this kerb at this track is buggy in this sim, override active" so Track Impulse gracefully handles known sim bugs without users having to figure them out themselves.
Idea
Multi-PC sync
Settings, profiles, and licence follow you across rigs. Useful for people running both home and event rigs, or replacing hardware without rebuilding their setup from scratch.
Idea
Discord rich presence
Show your current sim, car, track, and live latency figure on your Discord profile while you race.
Idea
Plugin SDK for custom effects
Let advanced users author their own effects in a scripted language with access to telemetry data and the audio pipeline, opening up effects beyond what ships in the box.
