iRacing.com – New Build Coming Up

Posted on January 10th, 2009 in iRacing

A new development build of iRacing.com’s online racing simulation is scheduled for the end of this month, just in time for the start of another iRacing season.

According to the iRacing staff, the new build will include plenty of improvements in terms of content and features. Content-wise, the biggest addition will be the long-awaited release of the Chevrolet Impala SS NASCAR COT stock car together with one or two new tracks.

Much more is in store in terms of features as informational blue & yellow flags will be added to road course races. Also coming up are open practice server sessions, a new replay system and spotters for a more realistic oval racing experience.

Furthermore, the icense progression math will be changed, allowing easier progression to higher classes. And finally, iRacing will be launching a new club structure with 36 clubs in seven regions – More news on that will follow.
