by Katier Scott on October 31st, 2012
This week marks the start of iRacing’s 2012 Season 4 and hidden amongst the anticipation of new cars and tracks is the fact that a third ’7 day a week’ series is now available for road drivers at the ‘C’ class level.

Laughton Takes NiPS Season Opener
by Jason Lofing on October 31st, 2012
had Laughton used strategy — and a little luck — to win the 2012 NASCAR iRacing.com Pro Series season opener at Daytona International Speedway. While most of their rivals had to pit twice under green in order to have enough fuel to go the distance, Laughton and drafting partner Carson Downs only needed one trip to pit road. The two combined to lead most of the last third of the online race, building a lead of more than four seconds over Jeremy Allen and Josh Berry. It looked as if Laughton and Downs were going to decide the race in a photo finish, but the caution flew with five laps remaining just as Laughton passed Downs for the lead, and the race ended under yellow. It was so close that [...]
