NASCAR live online Sim Racing

[68RT4ME]

Just wondering if there are any online simulation racers out there. I've been Sim racing online since 2000. With the new NASCAR season about to start, allot of leagues will be starting up as well. This year, most online leagues are changing over to the COT's too. The current PC Sim game that is still widely used is NASCAR Racing 2003 by "Papyrus" as it's still considered the best game around though other companies have tried their hand at making their own Sim Racing games and basically SUCKED at it, i.e., "EA Sports" but since they bought the license to make the official NASCAR racing games, no one else can do so till the license runs out. But, that's another story.

Anyway, if your a Sim racer, post up as to what league your in, how long, equipment you use etc... Here is my setup. I use a TSW (Thomas Super Wheel) CUP set up and my Sim was made by a guy I raced with from Marco Island, Fla. He custom builds them in whatever color you like and with whatever seat you want. I use a Logitec 5.1 surround sound system unless I'm on Teamspeak with a teammate. I go with the headphones and boom mic so we can speak live to each other. Plus, the wife gets a little peeved when I race with the speakers turned up. Sounds like I have all of NASCAR in my room with me...lol






Link below is to some sim racing with the COT's (Not my league) for those not familiar with online sim racing. It's live, real time action and yes, you have to create you own setups to be competetive. Most races run 35% to 40% of an actual race

Just wanted to revive this topic. It's a new season and this year the league I'm in switched to a new Sim called RFactor, VHR Stockcar Racing. If we have any Sim racers, drop me a PM and we'll talk. The league would like to add at least 8-10 more member/drivers.
