    I've practiced with Chad McCumbee in SK modified and Ryan Truex in Late Model.

    Danica Patrick may have an account there, but she never touch it.

    I'm not sure if Jacques Villeneuve has an account.

    Danica could be using test mode though.

    Yeah I think a number of them probably use it as training to learn tracks only not race in competitions. With that said I have raced with Dale Jr. a couple of times when I was in the BETA period with iRacing -- now I am never in races with him because our iRatings are so different. I also one time raced in a Truck Race at Phoenix against Bobby and Justin Labonte at the same time which was cool. I actually beat Bobby

    That is true... I have read some where that Tony Eury Jr. gave her racing software to practice on. I don't know if it's iRacing or NR2003.

    You can add Eric McClure (#24 Team Rensi Motorsports Ford) to the Nationwide list. He finished 17th at Daytona this year. I've raced with him a couple of times in the Late Model Tour. Nice guy.

    I ran with Dale Jr, Martin Truex and Kevin King at Daytona and California as a guest(not by them)a few years ago with NASCAR 2003, I finished 5th and 3rd, then last year I ran against AJ Allmendinger in another league using ARCA at Pocono, AJ finished 2nd and I finished 4th. AJ was pretty good but I think Tim coulda won that race.
    Kevin King was in another league. He was on steroids or something He won both races and was never even threatened at Cali.
