If iRacing and Dale Jr are working on it, it’ll be at least a decent sim.

Not just luckier, but also smarter. Believe it or not, there actually is a little bit of technique to Superspeedway racing. The trick is timing, patience, and being knowledgeable of what kind of car you have. Then the luck part comes into play. (As it sort of does almost anywhere else.)

As a Kyle Larson fan, I will say that he’s incredibly talented. Not sure if he’s as good– let alone better than– as Jeff Gordon, but he’s likely in the ballpark as far as talent goes, but as a driver, he tends to do some things that are a little not so smart, and even borderline chaotic. I think if he can race smarter, and figure how to close out races he dominates, he can easily be at least a 3-time champion if we still had a Winston Cup format. Under what we do have though, someone who races as carelessly as Robby Gordon could win a championship now.

IMO, it’s at least an improvement over NASCAR ’08 AND ’09. Those games were huge disappointments, and while I haven’t played NASCAR Kart Racing yet, (yes, that’s a thing) it’s safe to say that between those 3 games, it ended the EA Sports NASCAR games tenure with a whimper. NASCAR the Game 2011 was a little bit of a let down, but I think that’s also because the EA Sports NASCAR games gave people such high expectations. Having played games like the NASCAR Thunder games, NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup, and even NASCAR ’07, our expectations were high.

​@@timechanger9162Yeah, I haven’t been playing NASCAR games lately, (I think the last one I purchased was Inside Line for the Xbox 360, and I had to get rid of my Xbox and games at the time, because I needed money) but in the context of things, I’m not by any means expecting NASCAR Thunder 2004 or NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup. I do however expect at least improvement over the garbage we got after NASCAR ’15.

However, he drives on the edge of insanity and that has cost him multiple times. If he could back down a notch and settle for a top 5 instead of checkers or wreckers, I believe he be even better. However, if he cranked it down a notch, he’d not be Kyle Larson.

I mean it is iracing so it should be. I’m not expecting it to light the world on fire but it’ll be good. Look at what they did on the dirt side of things. It’ll be good
Not perfect
Good

Has his hype train died down somewhat, sure, but it’s still there. The fans finally had something to cheer about again recently. The last 3 weeks have been massive for him and he looks like his Champion form again.
