The ASRS Camping World Truck Series is just seven races away from crowning the 2009 champion. But already the focus is on 2010 and the changes that the season will be bringing to the division.
The most noticeable of the changes will be the new bodies, as the series switches to the NCTS09 mod from Team Om3ga. That change will change the image of the series entirely as the trucks take on a brand new look. The NCTS09 mod is also heavily support by the community with sites like Elite Paint Designs (http://www.elitepaintdesigns.com)working on entire carsets of the real NASCAR trucks of the mod.
The second change for 2010 is the addition of Pocono Raceway, the tricky 2.5 mile triangle nestled in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. Pocono offers a change of scenery as the series heads away from the Auto Club Speedway in California and the glitz and glamor of California for the quiet mountain town of Long Pond, Pennsylvania.
In the words of the late Billy Mays; "And that's not all". Along with the updated body styles and the addition of Pocono, many of the tracks on the schedule will be getting a facelift. With quality sites like Revamped Reloaded and Safer Barrier Project, the tracks are nearly all updated. With the recent release of a Memphis update as well as updates to Milwaukee, Nashville Super Speedway and O'Reilly Raceway Park, by BurninAsphalt.com and 3MN5 (http://www.freewebs.com/trackdownloads) and Kentucky, Iowa and Gateway on the way every track on the schedule should be updated to the most recent standards, both graphically and physically.
The 2010 season already looks as if it will be an exciting season of racing, with many changes on the horizon before the season takes the first green flag.
The American Sim Racing Series has seen continued growth since its birth in 2002.
