    I can see that rf2 has released new Porsche gt3 Cup 992. Any chances to see this in ams2 in near future? Updated gt3 version would be also nice to see, but it seams Reiza has license only for old machinery?

    We have the new McLaren, but also hope we see the new GT3 cars and maybe GT2

    Yep, stock price was $5.28 (after the reverse spit) on the day the new equity injection of $2M (option up to $10M) was announced a couple of weeks ago. It then fell to $2.45 by Monday and looks like it may drop below even that in the next few days. Whatever we think, the market is so far saying that the new equity is not going to save MSG because it just cut the tiny remaining piece of the company's value in half again.

    I'm curious to hear his take on this and Connor Daly's podcast about the situation.

    "Can we have Indy 500?"

    *MSG hovering over with legal hammer*

    "No, we have Indy 500 at home..."

    Indy 500 at home:


    *Meanwhile Liberty Media doesn't care at all*

    Just because Rodger Penske has been successful at some things doesn't mean he can't be absolutely terrible at other things. He and his organization have zero idea how to navigate the gaming medium and this deal with MSG shows his and his decision makers ineptitude.

    I don't understand why the FUSA 22 was canned, it's a generic version like the fultimate yes? Anyway just let me have it and I won't tell anyone honest!

    There’s always two sides to a story. You or I or 99% of the people outside of the people who signed the msg contract know. Penske isn’t in business to piss people off or he would be a multi billionaire. The marketing guy they fired may be the reason for this blunder, who knows, you don’t, and either do I. Big picture iracing , msg ams2 rf2 is a pebble in the road. A sim or simcade isn’t going to determine the make or break for Indy car. The guys in irqcing are throwing tantrums like a 7 yr old

    I quoted speculation from 2.5 years ago and added track maps.

    It maybe was postponed due to what happened with Indycar and MSG or they told them they aren’t allowed to release it and are waiting till MSG goes belly up

    If it's in the development update thread then it's most likely pure speculation/ fantasy wish list .

    Repeating yourself doesn't make your point sound more correct. With your logic Elon Musk is incapable of failing with his purchase of Twitter, but we know that isn't the reality. I'll repeat myself since you seemed to ignore my point. Someone being ultra wealthy and effective at one form business =/= being effective at other forms of business.

    Most businesses do not understand the gaming medium despite it being more profitable than the movie and music industry combined. Automakers across the board squander opportunities to cash in on their IPs. You are seriously downplaying how impactful and effective marketing in this platform and how it could help IndyCar. Honestly it just seems like your riding IndyCar and Rodger as if they will acknowledge you for your loyalty to them. IndyCar is not benefiting from this exclusive deal, fans of IndyCar are not benefiting. The only entity benefiting is MSG and they have shown multiple times that they are not a competent company. You can blame the marketing executive that was just fired, but IndyCar has a history of poor decisions being made and this is just another one no matter how small you try to claim it is.
