Editor review
Junction Circuit is a sim-leaning circuit racer that rewards the player who reads weight transfer. Twenty-four tracks across six championships plus time-trial ghost mode.
What works first is the throttle modelling. Different throttle positions produce different acceleration curves. Players who feather rather than mash post faster lap times.
Weight transfer is the second pillar. Hard braking shifts weight forward; acceleration shifts it back. Reading the load is part of the lap.
Twenty-four tracks across six championships. The progression respects the player.
Tested across maybe forty hours over six weeks. Adelaide tram commutes plus weekend at-home sessions. Gamepad analog stick is mandatory.
Where the design earns its high rating is the ghost-trial mode. Compete against your previous best laps with a visible ghost car.
Where I would push back is the AI in race mode, which follows the racing line but does not adapt to your driving.
Four-and-a-half stars. Strong sim-leaning circuit racer.
