The legendary NASCAR Racing 2003 Season might have finally met its match with the new ARCA Sim Racing that's set to come out soon.

And actual ARCA drivers played this game. The explanation by Michael McDowell (actual ARCA racer) of the game's mechanics and realism is so awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYnCaoOp-yU

What do you guys think?

I'm not one for watching oval racing on TV, but I'd probably get a kick outta this game. The dynamics and gameplay look well thought out too. Huh... Interesting. I wonder how long it would take for me to get bored of going left all the time though:whistling::lol:

Have you played it yourself LF??

This looks like a thing they tried to do a while back with a NASCAR / rFactor setup. They actually had paid drivers with sponsors and all. :eek:

LOL, there will be road courses introduced in the future. I haven't played it but I know beta testers who loved it.

Ya the developers went "all out" on this project LOL. I think they even have an "official" ARCA sim league that'll have professional broadcasts

Ya, this looks very promising. Although NASCAR '08's graphics are far superior. I think ARCA will be a much better simulation overall.

I didnt really see anything on the site about the game specifics. Do you pick the actual drivers and race with them like you do other race games ?

I think it'll be like rFactor where you pick servers
