Welcome to the American Stockcar Union or ASCU. The first season roster will be based off of the 2024 NASCAR Cup series roster with a few major differences, but first some more details on how the League is done.
1. Charter system: The charter system will resemble the NASCAR Cup Series charter system where there are 36 full time spots.
2. Points and Playoffs: Point System and Playoffs will be conducted the same way NASCAR Cup Series does it
3. Champions: There will be two champions; The Overall Champion and the Playoff Champion.
Overall Champion: The driver with the most points (Non Playoff) at the end of the season.

Breaking News: Jenkins to run full time in the 60 car the remainder of the season, and Hallie Deegan will start her stint in the 21 car at Cota.

 

[RJSIMRACING]

Cota cancelled because the AI doesn't race well on the track, tried multiple times and just ended up parading around the track under caution.
Breaking News:
Brad Keslowski to retire from full time racing after the season to focus on improving RFK Racing, he has said that he will run part time next year. While no announcement has been made it is believed that Rex Jenkins will race full time for RFK next year but what number he would be running remains a mystery at this time.

To make contracts more confusing Trevor Bayne is set to race the #21 for the remainder of the season.

Rumors: Team Hezeberg is rumored to be trying to come to ASCU, Daniil Kvyat is believed to be their driver.

Unfortunately Bristol dirt is canceled because the ai is terrible there, and the caution problem at Cota was happening there to.

Unfortunately Bristol dirt is canceled because the ai is terrible there, and the caution problem at Cota was happening there to.

Try turning off 'full pace lap' if you have it on, that can sometimes bug the AI on dirt tracks. Also, you might try the version on this page, I'm pretty sure this one works ok but it's been a while since I've used it.

I don't know what version I have, I do have full pace lap off, I downloaded the 2023 season track pack, I am not really worried about it either as I am working on a shorter schedule for season 2 2 and tracks not working helps me narrow the list down
