I know, EVERYONE hates them, and I don't agree with all of their choices but I would still like to know what they are doing for a game. Did EA buy the rights to NASCAR? Will iRacing Buy the rights? Someone posted a while back that if iRacing made a game that it would be on-line only?..... I also saw something saying they have a laser tool that will get the track and track objects so accurate to size so that it is within millimeters. I think we deserve a new NASCAR game we can drool over.

It wont be nascar, Yes EA owns the right.. through 2010? I think? Noone knows... that didnt sign a NDA, what there game will be. The online only thing stems from Their game being called a "service" not a game. Like you would only recive an exe to start the game, it wont include any tracks. You will need to sign on to their servers, witch will require a monthly fee, Just to run on a track. Thats all Speculation. Noone knows what Iracing will put out, or how it will work. _________________ B_Sheriff AKA Bort https://www.ttracingleague.com/

Yes iRacing's product will be online-only, and has a modified, late model, and an open wheel car. So, you're getting NASCAR 2003 without the NASCAR, and without any chance to practice or race offline. I'll be the first in line to say "Nah, no thanks." https://www.iracing.com/index.php _________________ Mike Spinelli Sim Cyberworld Racing "Your home for internet racing since 1996" N2003, DTR2, ICR2/CART www.or4c.com/racing/

If you read there site it tells you that stock/late model/modified/usac sprint/siver crown will be on the initial release. Look at the partner tracks to see that they probably arent going to run late models at Dega or Michigan. I love the no practice but with a 1000 other onliner's post.............

Is the Arca series owned by Nascar? If not are they considered stock cars??

No and Yes.. ARCA is it's own company based in Toledo Ohio but they do operate closely with Nascar.. Most ARCA cars are recycled Winston Cup Cars.. Our team had a Joe Gibbs 2000 Pontiac that we ran in the ARCA series for a few years... _________________ Take care, DBH
