Remember AICC? ARC's oldest series? It's back in 2024, departing from the Project CARS series for the first time ever after 11 seasons!

What's there to look forward to for our twelfth season of ARC Indycar? Well, in short, a lot. The ARC Assetto Corsa leagues are thriving, thanks in part to our partnership with The Racing Rats, our modding partner, who provide us with expert-level mods developed in tandem with real life manufacturers.


Beyond that, the server is always live- allowing our drivers unlimited track-time to practice before each event.


And the biggest news? We finally get to visit some Indycar staples, rather than the same grouping of tracks since 2016. Road Courses like St. Petersberg & Portland join the schedule, while we visit never-before visited speedways such as Nashville Superspeedway, Michigan International Speedway, & The Milwaukee Mile! And of course, the crown jewel of crown jewels returns once more- The 2024 ARC Indianapolis 250!


Other news? This is the first season in 9 years in which drivers may compete with an engine besides the real-life Chevrolet & Honda power units. This is due to the modding component of Assetto Corsa, allowing us to compete with engines from a pool of pre-selected manufacturers, selected by the league, in which team owners can choose from.


Our entry list is looking incredibly strong as of the writing of this article, with 40 drivers battling for 28 slots in each race, the largest pre-season entry-list in ARC history, with the most countries represented ever!
