You seriously think iRacing won’t get it to us eventually? They know what’s wanted because they probably want it themselves.

We get the truck now because it was started earlier than the other cars that are coming.

I think I would be happy with 50 oval cars and 1 Lotus 79 though (and Mosport and Spa, Mosport is coming for sure.)

Think about it..the owner of iRacing co-owns a Nascar team so big suprise there. However there is a F1 ‘79 car coming, Daytona Prototype Riley car coming, Spa-Francochamps track and other European tracks as well as a lot of road courses. iRacing was officially released a couple months ago you guys should relax a bit with the bashing.

Expected the Yellows to be NASCAR based. This is clearly trying to be a NASCAR Sim, without a license. Most of the tracks already, got a truck in-game, and the COT announced.

Lol, I am surprised it wasn’t mentioned. Also how the cautions work like NASCAR, lapped cars pit on the lap after lead lap cars, double file restart with more than 10 to go, etc.

I don’t want to turn into an iRacing basher, but it is staggering that a premium racing sim didn’t have basics such as engine damage and pitstops, let alone stuff like weather.

Perhaps it should make us more understanding that sims which sell for a much more modest price don’t always have all the features we would like.

Nascar and yet more ovals … Still no reason for me to have a look at this game.
