One of the guys in there said a friend of his was racing about 2 weeks ago and Dale Earnhardt Jr' was in the race with them and of course Smoked the field. Man it would be cool to run with one of the real cup drivers

Most of your Cup drivers are running on iRacing (www.iracing.com), which is the most professional, realistic simulation ever produced. Dale Jr., Dinger, Labonte, David Green, Michael McDowell and Marcus Ambrose are on a small list of drivers that race professionally in the NASCAR world that use it.

iRacing was brought to life after Papyrus Racing Games lost its license to produce "NASCAR" racing games in late 2002. The last game they produced, NASCAR Racing 2003 Season is still widely popular and up until the end of the calendar year in '08, Dale Jr's DMP League still raced the sim. The likes of Jr., Brad Keselowski, Denny Hamlin, Martin Truex Jr and TJ Majors, among others ran in the league, all of which I have had the opportunity to call races for and interview on the now defunct Sim Racing Network.

Though I haven't ran on track with Jr (though I have with Denny a few times), I have had the opportunity to talk to him off track - a snipit can be found here:
