Automobilista 2 is about to let sim racers fly: Developer Reiza Studios has teased Stadium Super Trucks to be coming to the sim soon.

A fan favorite of the first release in the series is coming back: Stadium Super Trucks are on their way to Automobilista 2. These trucks are made for short-track racing, usually on street circuits known for more docile forms of racing, but incorporating ramps for huge jumps.

Created by former IndyCar and NASCAR pilot Robbie Gordon, Stadium Super Trucks have often been part of IndyCar weekends after their 2013 debut season. However, the amount of races on the series' schedule has decreased dramatically in recent years, with the 2024 season only consisting of two rounds in total, one at Long Beach, the other at Adelaide. Thus far, only Long Beach appears on the 2025 schedule from April 11 to 13.


However, after Reiza's latest teaser, sim racers can at least get their fix in AMS2. 'Soon' can mean a lot of things, but Reiza's Lead Developer Renato Simioni mentioned new content to be added "pretty much every month" when talking to OverTake in late January, so the Trucks could indeed be just around the corner.

It will be interesting to see what other content they might come with. Could Racin' USA Pt. 4 finally be about to launch? Recently, community members had spotted hints about NASCAR-style stock cars and additional ovals to be on their way to AMS2 as well - with Stadium Super Trucks being a US series at its core, it could be a good fit.

On the other hand, their spirit would also be in line with an Adrenaline Pack Pt. 2 - part one included rallycross and Formula Dirt content, so it is likely that the Stadium Super Trucks could be the follow-up to that pack.

Yep, been looking forward to this for ages. Hopefully it is indeed soon by a more traditional definition of the term as opposed to the typical game developer one.
 
AI working for RX content, with Joker lap, and all the RX Project cars 2 content could be good, but at this moment Project cars 2 and the RX content do a far better job.

Really wish they would flesh out the IMSA content. Missing cars, missing tracks. Really disappointing they get the license for the series and leave it unfinished. Hopefully, they aren't done with it and release more content at a later date.
I don't think I ever read a mention that they're done with IMSA. Like you, I'd like to see the full IMSA grid in the game. It's probably a question of being able to license the missing cars. Maybe some of the licenses are more expensive or difficult to get.
 
I assume they're fulfilling their previous promises of Adrenaline Pack 2 and Racing USA Pt 4. Then probably back to IMSA.
 
They might be good for a one off fun race if you want to have a mess about with friends, but really aren't something for competitive racing.

Fun to watch when you're at the track though as I found out in November at the Adelaide 500.. Though they nearly got banned after the first day as two cars crashed in practice, one of which decided to throw its fuel tank across the track on fire :confused: which may explain why they are seen less and less, they've got the reputation amongst race organisers IRL as being a bit of a liability!

Sadly, can't upload videos, but here is a shot of Robbie Gordon mid-flight coming out of turn 7, 8:30am on Thursday morning, one way to wake up the neighbourhood i guess!!

Where are the new tracks? Release more tracks that will be suitable for Formula 1, LMP, GT3 and many other classes of cars. They produce specific cars that only fit specific tracks, these tracks are not suitable for all other classes of machines in the game. Bravo! As always nothing is finished. When AI improvements that they promised? When will all mistakes in the game be corrected? No one will even buy it. Why would you buy it? To drive around a couple of laps and never ride these super trucks again? You can get old while the developers do something good with this game. They decide to add only the most unpopular content to the game. Another unpopular class of cars to which will be 3 track. To release all this junk the developer will spend a lot of time. Have they seen that even in the iRacing this class of machines nobody plays?
