ARCA Sim Racing '08 is a stock-car racing simulator developed by The Sim Factory LLC, a small American-based computer software company devoted to the production of racing simulation software. The game simulates the 2008 ARCA RE/MAX season.

Overview

ARCA Sim Racing is based on Image Space Incorporated's game engine, ISIMotor2, which was used in rFactor. In August 2006, The Sim Factory (TSF) purchased the rights to use the ISIMotor2 engine in their software,[1] and with the help of ISI, The Sim Factory was able to produce a realistic stock car simulation.

The software was released for pre-ordering on January 1, 2008.[2] The game originally included 10 (updated to 23) tracks that were scratch built to replicate the real life tracks.

In 2011, TSF began a Beta program for the addition of trucks to ARCA Sim Racing (known as the X-Patch).[3] The trucks were never officially released.
