    ARCA Sim Racing 2007

    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.

    Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtI9w...eature=related

    Informational Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aauh...eature=related

    Main Site: http://www.arcasimracing.com/

    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

    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.

    Looks like a pretty cool game. I still have to get NASCAR '08.

    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
