I'd say he drat near didn't make it this far, but let's face it, he shouldn't have made it to half his age.

Considering the dozens of almost fatal crashes he's had, along with killer bee attacks, bulldozer wrecks, and spending a month in the hospital at age 79, I think he might be too badass to die.

Monaco is also going to use a different track layout to the GP.

The Monaco track is great because it uses a total of zero parts that make Monaco a cool unique track.

Should have put the money toward an official game that isn't Grid or Forza. A well made indycar game would own.

Iracing is awesome and all but yeah you pretty much already have to give a poo poo about motorsports to be into it, I was thinking something more in the "Simcade" area like Codemasters F1 games or Forza whatever else is like that. Something that isn't 200 bucks plus montly fees to have a career mode, and could be played with wheel/gamepad whatever. Something you could pick up and enjoy, but you could also get super into the career mode and such.

I think it could work really well, as long has it had the right people behind it.

Easiest way is to fund iRacing to scan St. Pete, NOLA, Belle Isle, & Toronto to complete the schedule. I really wish I could go to Media Day tomorrow, but my boss won't let me have the day off

Iracing already has a much better track selection than real life indy though. Plus Laser Scanning the street circuits would be a huge pain in the rear end. (nothing that 25 mllion could not fix though lol)

Edit - Hardcore fans already give a poo poo that's the thing, and plus that's like 5 percent of people.

I'm just saying that those two actually would market their games fairly well.

I don't think you'd get the same type of effort from those that are currently making the NASCAR series or Code masters IMO.

I'm just saying if the games poo poo it doesn't matter how well it's marketed. Thinking like that got us the last 3 nascar games.

Yeah it's been a local favorite for awhile now since the CART and IRL days. It's like a fixture pretty much and it would suck if we ever lost it, hopefully that doesn't happen for a long time.
