iRacing has published a very exhaustive development note and there are many things we will talk about. New cars are coming in the S2 2024 update and we already know what are the chosen to extend the current roster.

We also have a handful of exciting new racecar additions…
Last season we were excited to add the Super Formula SF23, which has been received extremely well on the service. In March, we will keep up this momentum with the addition of the Dallara 324, which is essentially the little brother of the SF23. In the real world, variants of this car are raced in the Super Formula Lights series and the Euroformula Open Championship. In iRacing, this car will be positioned at the C level.
It’s been some time since we’ve added a new dirt car, and we are really excited about this latest addition. The dirt Micro Sprint will join the service and is well-suited to some of our smaller dirt ovals. This car is a blast to drive, a great way to learn dirt racing, and will have its own Rookie series. It will also be provided to all iRacers for free!
On the pavement side of oval racing, we are excited about our partnership with SRX and the addition of this great racecar. This car will be positioned at the D level and has both pavement and dirt tracks on its schedule.
We always do our best to keep our NASCAR fleet up to date with the latest yearly real-world updates, as well as any available improvements made to our physics modeling. It’s always tricky because we tend to get the data from NASCAR fairly close to the start of the racing season. A few weeks ago, we released updates to the three Cup graphics models. We will follow this up now with physics changes that will more accurately reflect the 2024 cars. Additionally, the Trucks have been the subject of extensive aerodynamics analysis, and should see a significant update in June. Finally, the Xfinity Series Ford Mustang will have its identity packages updated to reflect the 2024 season.
INDYCAR will see similar improvements. In collaboration with INDYCAR, we will be updating the Dallara IR18 with modifications to the car model to bring it up to date with the 2024 season car.
