rfactorcentral to become simraceway.com

Interesting, and potentially a bit scary. Obviously if a private company paid $$ to aquire rfactorcentral, then they expect it to make them $$$.


Press Release

Some interesting tidbits on the company that bought it:

"Ignite Game Technologies, Inc. is a start-up founded in early 2008 to establish a new form of online gaming – video games that offer very high value prizes ($100K)."

and

"The company is now testing its first product – an online racing game in which you can win real versions of the supercars you race in the game."

Wow, that's really interesting. I'm glad they are keeping the current services free. I'm going to be interested in seeing what kind of paid services they offer.
