PC gaming's best input device just got a little bit better!

As usual, you can purchase directly through our website at www.trackir.com.

New TrackIR Enhanced Games!

GRID™
Following in the footsteps of its TrackIR Enhanced predecessor DiRT, Codemasters® recently released the highly-anticipated GRID. Many TrackIR users clamored for support in this title, and their efforts were rewarded with full 6 DOF implementation. Enjoy the Ego engine's awesome graphical power from the seat of muscle cars charging through the iconic streets of San Francisco, prestige marquees competing in the legendary Le Mans 24 Hours race, and drift cards racing around the docks of Yokohoma.

iRacing™
Where would one of the most advanced racing simulations in the world be without TrackIR? Fortunately, you'll never have to know! Offering a diversity of drives that would take an entire career of real-world racing to assemble, as well as a physics engine and tire model that reproduce the feel of each car with absolute fidelity, few other simulations approach the realism that iRacing offers. TrackIR's 6 DOF support is the perfect complement. Brought to you by iRacing.com Motorsport Simulations®.

FreeSpace 2 Open™ and Beyond the Red Line™
FreeSpace 2 Open—the newest iteration of the classic FreeSpace 2 space sim and the primary project of the FS2 Source Code Project—is completely supported and maintained by its talented and dedicated team of community developers. Its engine is also offered to independent game developers for the creation of stand-alone conversions like Beyond the Red Line. Named Moddb's #1 Indie Game of the Year in January 2008, BTRL is based on the popular TV-show Battlestar Galactica. Both games, which are free to download and play, have 6 DOF TrackIR support.

Project Torque™
Invictus Games' new free-to-download, free-to-play MMO racing game now features 6 DOF TrackIR support. It appeals to street racing fans and circuit racing fans alike with both Project Torque-unique and real-world vehicles. Experience the thrills of racing through the streets of Tokyo or around a German racetrack, cruising the English countryside, or off-roading through Hungary. Did we mention it's free?

Euro Truck Simulator™
Euro Truck Simulator is a first in simulation—a truck simulation game in a European setting, with European long haul trucks. Drive cargos from Rome to Berlin to Madrid to Prague—and many more cities—in meticulously modeled vehicles. With TrackIR Enhancement, Euro Truck Simulator enables you to navigate a realistic depiction of Europe with even greater immersion.

CFS3™
Many thanks to Tom Milligan and the gentlemen at OBD Software for their assistance with implementing Windows Vista support in CFS3.

Events

Ex-Lan
Noobs were pwned. Frags were bountiful. Competition was fierce. Business as usual at the NaturalPoint-sponsored Ex-Lan v7.0. Rumor has it that TrackIR was a huge hit, with a demo that blew attendees' minds. That's what we like to hear.

LANcryption
NaturalPoint was proud to sponsor one of the premier LANs in Southern California—LANcryption. The event was a smashing success, and one lucky winner was excited to take home a free TrackIR. At least, we think that's why he's excited.

Software Update
We are pleased to announce a new beta release of the TrackIR software (4.1.036 beta 1). As always, we look forward to your feedback and hope you enjoy using its new features:

• Updates Russian language translation
• Updates German language translation
• Offers support for CFS3 to Windows Vista users
