I stayed there until third grade when I moved to Farmington Hills, Michigan and now I currently live in Naperville, IL where I'm attending Metea Valley High School as a 9th grader. In the past, I have participated in soccer and this year I plan on joining swimming or water polo. My family includes my 15 year old sister, a 7 year old sister and my mom and dad. I have been writing since 6th grade and have participated in many writing contests in my school and have received several awards for writing.
    My fascination for motorsports began when I was nine. The first NASCAR race I watched on TV was the 2009 Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Infineon Raceway, won by Kasey Kahne. My favorite NASCAR drivers are Kyle Busch, Dale Earnhardt Jr, and Jimmie Johnson. I have watched all the races in the NASCAR Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series since 2010. I currently have three wins on iRacing, two of them in the Nationwide car at Daytona and one in the Street stocks at Charlotte. My favorite car and type of track on iRacing is the Nationwide Series (B Class) car and superspeedways.

    Born and raised in Fredericksburg, Virginia, I have always had a serious passion for cars and motorsports. Hoping one day to become an automotive journalist for a magazine, I constantly crave the exciting competition that comes along with racing and sim-racing. Having participated in a mere test session in a Legends car at Old Dominion Speedway, I have not been able to get into any real-life competition . . . yet.

    As a sim racer, my interests date back to "GTR Evolution." My goal is to have fun and win some races. I made it to Oval Pro in 2010, but did not become very successful. I enjoy any mixed road racing competition and love racing the Silverados around almost any track.

Red Sox Buckeye 30 at Mid Ohio

June 19th, 2013

003

Story by James Prostell Jr. LEXINGTON, OHIO – Nestled in the rolling hills about an hour north of Columbus, Ohio, The Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course has been called “The Most Competitive in the U.S.” since the first laps were turned back in 1962. Despite setting the stage for battles among some of the best in IndyCar, Grand-AM, and for the first time this year, NASCAR’s Nationwide series, the track’s diverse calendar hosts races for regional and local drivers and The Mid Ohio School gives fans and hopefuls a shot at the circuit too. Just try not to mistake this openness for a lack of difficulty. A challenge to any driver, Mid-Ohio is a constant test of mental endurance and physical ability. The elevation changes and snaking curves through the esses [...]

iRacing.com Global Challenge Series Quarterly Recap: Part 3

by Jonathan Wimbush on June 18th, 2013

138
Week Two's events at Laguna Seca seem like a distant memory...

It’s hard to believe that the first and second quarters have both come and gone in the iRacing.com Global Challenge Series. Over the next few days followers of this series can look forward to updates recapping the action from the first half of the season. In this article, the finale for my three article series, I’ll be sharing my perspective on difficult it is to gain and maintain a competitive edge, and how the process can be made easier. This is based off of my experience so far in the Cadillac CTS-V class. One of the questions I ask myself each week is, “How can I do better than the week before?” Many drivers would automatically give the answer that “practice makes perfect.” I would echo the same sentiment, however [...]

Down Strikes Back

by Dylan Sharman on June 17th, 2013

74
Down was in superb form at Sonoma, taking pole and romping to convincing win.

Round Six of the iRacing.com V8 Supercar Series headed to Sonoma Raceway to tackle the Cup layout.  After last week’s chaos at VIR, this week couldn’t come soon enough as the drivers championship heats-up with Justin Ruggier atop the  standings without tasting victory this season while ANZ also extended their lead over Tatts.com in the Teams Championship. Qualifying was led by Madison Down once again as he broke the lap record in qualifying with a 1:13.027 while another strong qualifying performance by the rookie of the series Adrian Stratford saw him gain the outside of the front row alongside Down. Josh Muggleton and Ruggier started third and fourth ahead of Vail Riches and Leigh Ellis on Row Three.  Shaun Kelly led the LMR team with Jon Latham and Brad Ryan [...]

Hulbert Finds Glory at Lime Rock Park

by Nathan Lamothe on June 17th, 2013

A victorious Hulbert crosses the finish line at Lime Rock/

Week Six brought the iRacing.com Skip Barber Race Series to short and tricky Lime Rock Park.   Since the track is owned by Skip Barber, mastermind of the Skip Barber Racing School and Series, the week represented a home-coming of sorts.  Only two years after the 2.41 kilometer track opened in 1957, Sunday racing was banned after the Lime Rock Protective Association took the track to the court.   Happily, the noise issues central to that LRPA’s court case have not proven problematic for iRacing and there is sim-racing aplenty at Lime Rock on Sundays!. In this week’s 3995 Barber Series strength of field race, multiple great drivers were set to get racing. Amazingly, the difference between pole position and last place on the grid was only a second. Simon Hulbert (UK/I) [...]

Get to Know . . . Casey Malone

Malone carries the colo(u)rs for Trucking in the NiSWC.

This week, I interviewed an iRacer who is 20 years old and was born in Mansfield, Texas.  He currently attends Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas and has been on iRacing since September of 2010.  Now, he drives the #92 Garry Mercer Trucking Chevrolet SS for Last Row Motorsports in the NASCAR iRacing.com Series World Championship. If you haven’t guessed by now you should probably start watching the NiSWC races, and you should read the title of the article! Since joining the iRacing.com service nearly three years ago, Casey Malone has impressed many other iRacers . . . and himself.  He has started 256 oval races and has won 41 times, the first of those coming on his first day on iRacing in the Legends car at South Boston.  If [...]

Red Sox Dry Lagoon 30 at Laguna

June 14th, 2013

86
002

Story by James Prostell Jr. MONTEREY, CALIFORNIA – There’s a classic saying that “the only constant is change,” and few tracks embody that statement quite like Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. In fact, the name Laguna Seca translated from Spanish means “dry lagoon,” suggesting that at one time this land that has put sports car, IndyCar and motorcycle racers to the test was submerged under water. Moreover, the current track layout has only been used since 1988 – before then drivers blasted around at breakneck speeds for about half a lap. One thing that hasn’t changed over the years is the corkscrew. Known innocently on the map as turns 8 and 8A, the tight left combined with a blind right (and a sixty-foot drop!) has tested the mettle and metal of [...]

Goke and Sanford Go Big in Texas

by Matt Kingsbury on June 14th, 2013

114
Brandon Trost leads a pack of IndyCars into Turn Three at TMS.

The sixth week of the iRacing.com IndyCar Oval racing took place at Texas Motor Speedway, “The Great American Speedway.” The drivers took to the venue’s 1.5 mile oval where they would battle spinning their tires on restarts coming through the quad oval. The corners are banked at 24 degrees and provide a tremendous amount of grip for the IndyCars, allowing the leader to control the bottom lane and making for minimum passing opportunities. The iRacing.com IndyCar Oval Open Series 3150 Strength of Field race saw 19 drivers register for the event. Home town hero Brad Sanford (Texas) blasted his #8 Dallara to the win leading 20 of 100 laps after starting from the third position. The race itself was calm and saw just three caution flags for 12 laps and [...]

iRacing Artists Make Their Mark in NASCAR

by David Phillips on June 14th, 2013

5,042
The paint scheme on Dale Earnhardt Jr's car was designed by JD Laird, one of many artists who have used iRacing as a gateway to work in NASCAR.

Since iRacing.com opened its virtual doors for business in 2008, the online racing service’s meticulously modeled race cars and tracks have proven to be valuable tools for professional race drivers, be they established stars like NASCAR’s Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Brad Keselowski, emerging talent like Nationwide Series Rookie of the Year Landon Cassill or Conor Daly, who drove for AJ Foyt Racing in this year’s Indianapolis 500. But drivers aren’t the only iRacers using the world’s leading motorsports simulation service as a gateway to the professional arena.  Much like drivers who move-up the racing “ladder” from online to real racing, artists Guy Driggers, JD Laird, Kevin King and others are plying their craft in professional circles after serving their apprenticeships designing paint schemes for virtual cars on the iRacing service.

iRNC Shines at Sunny Laguna Seca

by Joe Pisciotta Jr on June 13th, 2013

102
Fittingly, a track officially named "Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca" is visited twice a season by the IRNC series and is popular with Mazda drivers.

Week Six saw iRacing.com’s inRacing News Challenge mixed-class series head to sunny Monterey, California to tackle the very popular road course at Laguna Seca.  This 2.2 mile eleven turn circuit provides iRNC sim-racers with several elevation changes and the infamous “Corkscrew” proves to be the most challenging sector on track.  The best racers in the world have tackled Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway, from Formula One (demonstrations) to full-on MotoGPs and are always quick to point out how difficult this course can be. Last week in Solstice there was a new leader after Lime Rock and in Mazda the two-time champ extended his lead.  This week there is a new leader once again in Solstice and the reigning Mazda champion continues to impress. Pontiac Solstice The Solstice battle has been so [...]

A Golden Weekend

by Michael Self on June 12th, 2013

56
Self (third from left, back row) joins fellow iRacers on the NASCAR Next roster.

In racing there are good weekends, there are great weekends, and seldom, there are the unreal golden weekends.  I can’t say there’s been much reflecting over the last 24 hours because, well, there’s hasn’t been much to reflect on.  I had a golden weekend, without a doubt the best weekend of my racing career, and a weekend that may never be matched by myself — or anyone — again. The Golden Gate Racing Team has had plenty of momentum over the last year, but nothing like it has now.  Coming off our win at Brainerd two weeks ago the only thing on our mind was getting back into the thick of the battle for the NASCAR K&N West Championship, and start points-racing now that we had our first win of [...]

Rosenow Reigns at Oxford Plains

by Ray Kingsbury on June 12th, 2013

163
The field dives into Turn One at the start of the SoF.

Burris and Majeski Reignite Battle Oxford Plains is an interesting short track with great history and a unique layout. One way in which this track is different is that it does not have an actual straightaway and so requires drivers to continuously turn left. It is also different in that on the outside lane on the front “straight” contains a pronounced dip, resulting in an off-camber entry into Turn One for drivers who prefer diving down to the apex. With some drivers not even bothering to use fourth gear, loose race cars could be found in abundance and those who did use fourth gear often times found their right front tire had been ground to almost nothing by the end of the race. Considering Oxford is in the shape of [...]

Mustang Points Race Tightens at Summit Point

by Jeff Jacobs on June 12th, 2013

118
Points leader Vedran Broz won his only race in Week 6 but a low points value allowed other drivers to close the gap.

The season overall points standing grew even closer in Week 6 of the iRacing.com Mustang Cup, with several sim-racers taking advantage of crucial mid-season wins to reel-in leader Vedran Broz.  This week featured 16 official racesat Summit Point’s short course – a first run on that configuration for the Mustangs.  While the number of online races were far fewer than at Daytona the week before, 14 different winners took home top honors and points in their effort to climb the points standings. Out of the 144 sim-racers who tried the Mustang FR500S around the West Virginia track, Todd Honczarenko had the best results with two wins in two starts and the top points (120) earned for the week.  Olivier Sackhouse was also perfect in two starts, claiming 115 points.  Points [...]

Alfalla Finds Victory Lane at Pocono

by Jason Lofing on June 12th, 2013

1,286
Alfalla got the best of Ottinger at Pocono to score his first win of the season.

It took eight races and a lucky break, but Ray Alfalla is finally back in the NASCAR iRacing.com Series World Championship victory lane. Alfalla survived the early carnage and took advantage of a huge mistake by Nick Ottinger with 11 laps to go en route to his win at Pocono Raceway. It looked as if Ottinger had sealed-up the win when he passed Alfalla with 20 laps remaining, but Alfalla tried his best to keep the pressure on. With 11 laps to go, Ottinger pushed it a little too hard and slid into the wall on the exit of Turn Three, allowing Alfalla to retake the lead. Ottinger quickly tried to close back in, but a yellow flag would trap him in second position and set up a three lap [...]

Huttu Edges Luis for VIR Victory

by Chris Hall on June 11th, 2013

150
Luis led the opening ? laps, but Huttu led the one that pays championship points.

Virginia International Raceway played host to the eighth round of the 2013 iRacing.com World Championship Grand Prix Series, where Greger Huttu further extended his lead at the top of the standings. The Finn, who now holds a 114 point advantage on the leader-board, edged his way to the top spot in a battle of pits stops during the closing stages of the 58 lap race. With a pole-setting time of 1:22.850, it was Hugo Luis who led the 35 car field of virtual Williams-Toyota FW31s when the green flag dropped, with Huttu alongside. Maintaining his position at the front, despite a first corner attack from the current World Champion, Luis kept Huttu at bay to until his first pit-stop on Lap 24. With Huttu following Luis’ My3id FW31 into pit-lane, [...]

Hometown Hero

by Jordan Hightower on June 11th, 2013

86
Week 6 Texas P1

Texas Motor Speedway played host to Week Six of the NASCAR iRacing Class C Fixed Series and a hometown hero was able to make his way to victory lane during the week’s top Strength of Field event. 2,202 sim racers took the track for at least one race during the week, each looking for a trip to Texas’ victory lane, but only one could lay claim to victory. The 1.5-mile speedway provides some of the closest racing that iRacing has to offer, but this week it provided more of a challenge than usual. Since this series runs a fixed setup (everyone has the same setup), some drivers had concerns that the setup was too loose, which made the Silverado more difficult to drive compared to other big speedways on the [...]

New Alien on the Block

by David Phillips on June 10th, 2013

400
Won't get fooled again . . .  Brown takes the high road to the NiSWC win at Charlotte.

iRacers beware:  there’s about to be a new alien on the block.  No, he’s not from Scandinavia.  He’s from . . . Texas; Corpus Cristi to be precise.  But he plans on moving to Roswell, New Mexico in the future.  And unless you’ve been living in a cave for all or some of the past 66 years, you’ll know that since a UFO crashed near Roswell in 1947, the desert town has been long been ground zero for speculation about extra-terrestrials. Some would say Joey Brown has already proven his alien status in sim-racing circles, witness the fact that he finished ninth in the 2012 NASCAR iRacing.com Pro Series or that he scored his first NASCAR iRacing.com Series World Championship victory at Charlotte in just his seventh start at the [...]

Binder Blows Away Competition At Lanier

by Scott Kelly on June 10th, 2013

sprint cars

The iRacing.com Sprint Car Series made its stop to Lanier National Speedway for Week 5 of the 2013 S2 season. A track available to all, not to mention one of the favorites within the iSCS community, the garage was packed for this week’s activities. Powerhouses and rookies alike made their way to the laser-scanned .375 mile oval, which has unfortunately closed its doors in life away from sim motorsports. The action lives on in iRacing.com’s servers, however, as 111 gridded entrants were seen in the 9 races that were made official for points scoring during the week. In this week’s qualifying sessions, it was Fred Lampela who was seen at the top of the charts by week’s end, with his fast time of 12.559s. Ever so close behind was 7-time defending [...]

Lukaszka is Dover’s “Top Monster”

by Tom Moustakas on June 10th, 2013

108
Close-quarters racing + Dover's challenging racing surface often equals sheet-metal damage.

Week Five brought the NASCAR iRacing.com Class A Series (fixed setup)  to the first state in the Union and Dover International Speedway.  With its unique combination of concrete surface and steep banking, it’s no wonder the track has earned the nickname “The Monster Mile.” Qualifying: For the second week in a row, Pro-licensed drivers topped the qualifying charts in the NiCAS (fixed setup). NiSWC competitor Brian Schoenburg (California) wheeled his Gen6 car to a 22.796 second lap around the concrete mile. New Pro driver Brian Day (Mid-South) was second best with a 22.808s lap, and NiSWC driver Danny Hansen was third at 22.809s. Kevin King (California) was fourth best at 22.820s and Matt Bussa (Illinois) was fifth at 22.833s. High SOF Race: The top SOF race of the week happened [...]

Get to Know: Case Brinksma

by David Ifeguni on June 10th, 2013

193
Brinksma had nearly 100 wins to his credit on iRacing.

iRacing.com has thousands of members racing its virtual cars on its laser-scanned tracks, but how many of them can say they race real cars on real tracks?  The iRacer I interviewed this week has been racing in the real world since 2010 and has won championships in both sim racing and real racing. This week’s featured driver is Case Brinksma. Since joining the iRacing service in 2009, the 16 year old from Chino, CA he has started won 97 of 634 oval races, and has finished in the top five in nearly half of those races. Not only is Brinksma up front at the end of his race, he’s fast before the green flag, witness his 118 career pole positions. He is also in the small group of iRacers with [...]

Fritsche Charges, Narrows Moreira’s Lead

by Katier Scott on June 10th, 2013

98
Watkins Glen is always a popular venue on the CTC calendar.

It was business as usual as the field moved to Watkins Glen with Gernot Fritsche taking maximum points in the week’s Classic Team Championship battles, narrowing the gap to series leader Nuno Moreira by 11 points. Watkins Glen is usually a popular track, often boasting the highest participation of the entire season for any series, and this week proved to be no different as 159 drivers took part in 18 online race starts during the course of seven days. Peter Duggan, David Ballew and Jean-Francois Boscus made the most starts during the course of the week, each registering seven starts, although only Duggan was able to win any of his races. He finished with three victories but poor results elsewhere resulted in him only scoring 101 points while the other [...]
