    Understandable.

    Then, what about IDR and Lada TCR? Will those cars be released for purchase on the store or it is another one off program?

    Same for Porsche 911 RSR, is it another one off esports and it is gone sort of content?

    Honestly, it is getting really annoying as IDR competition is a year ago. Why can't licenses be signed for general purchase too?

    The simple answer is money. The RSR will be released into the store, just not right now. The IDR and Lada are 100% up to VW and Lada I imagine, but that not official, one of the devs would have to clarify that.
    But think about it this way, why would Sector 3 want to waste so much time to make something to not then release it to the general public, selling the car can only be good for them.

    I don't recall any other announcement than the RSR and Daytona coming. I presumed it was to be for purchase.

    Wasn't Lada TCR just TC1 car with different physics?

    I'll bet this is driving people mad - Look at the "just added to the store" on the left hand side! Can't click it or see it in the store though :(

    Yep, my profile also shows Daytona added to the store, but it is not a working link.
    Is this done on purpose to raise 'hype', or in preparation for proper release? I must say, the general lack of info from anyone in the know is not very inspiring.

    It's probably a side effect from preparation for the "go" of the store. The same situation occured with Zhejiang for several users. So it's basically "primed" for the store already, but still awaits some update before the actual option to buy is deployed finally. (In this case it's about some ad banners and minor tweaks on the track, to get an approval according to Georg Ortner on a stream by him).

    I think the hang up is waiting on the nAsCaR folks to find a black Crayola to sign off on the Daytona Oval o_O

    I live in the south, and whenever I tell someone I watch IMSA and IndyCar, they get confused. They can't seem to wrap their minds around the possibility of anything other than NASCAR existing.

    Might not be as easy ;)
    You can live in the south and still be further away from daytona than if you live at the hudson bay which seems to be considered as part of the arctic ocean :D

    I live 35 minutes from the Speedway but I am pretty sure I would not get an answer.

    I suspect the car and track will come at the same time and the car is not going to be be put up for sale until after the Porsche Competition Race#3. I believe that happens tomorrow?

    As a British guy, the idea of NASCAR amazes me.. To race in sims it's as dull as it gets, but to go and experience it in the flesh one day is on my bucket list.

    I want this:


    ..We had some good sun here over the w/e, and my neck's a little red. - I'm halfway there, right?
