If my math holds up we have been scheduled to run 3,201 miles over 2,247 laps. Google Maps tells me that’s the number of miles covered by … Read the Rest »

Wednesday’s NASCAR iRacing Series race at Talladega Superspeedway went green from start to finish, requiring us all to pit from full speed, and the sim racing was great.

NASCAR iRacing Series Week 9 – Pratt’s Motor Speedway (Richmond) Recap

April 28th, 2015 by

This was a messy week for all and that included Falcon Racing. We did pull out a 10th place finish, but the car was destroyed in the process (16 INCs – most of any driver in my Fixed Race). It started well and it looked as if we could cruise from the outset as we … Read the Rest »

NASCAR iRacing Series Outlook: Auto Club Speedway

March 18th, 2015 by

We did not have this track in 2013. It was one of two tracks we did not have in the first season. (I think the other was Kansas for the first race of the season.) As a result we ran at Iowa and Rockingham. I did very well at those two fill-in tracks coming home … Read the Rest »
