Feature Dynasties

"We did it!!!!" Anderson shouted over the radio to the team and crew just after a dominating win at Bristol this past weekend in the Spring 250 Mile Race in Thunder Valley! "We had a good car all weekend and from the drop of the green flag I knew it could be a special day if we could just avoid trouble."

The team gave Anderson a phenomenal car and they drove to their first season and career win in the NASCAR Cup series in 2020! Locking into the playoffs with a win is sweet! So much pressure relieved and the team can look to string together more great finishes starting with Richmond next week.

Another important accomplishment this week is the team gets the early season monkey off the back after a really tough outing at Phoenix a few weeks back, showing that the short track program was not in as much disarray as originally thought.

We go to Texas Motor Speedway for a longer 250 mile event at our home track looking to have another solid 1.5 mile race. All of the races we are simulating are at 50% distance of the real life event in NASCAR so this is as long of a race as we will see in the season at 250 miles. Things work out well for us on pit strategy at our home track and timings of the cautions of which there were many. We bring home a 10th place finish. Some good racing with Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott and others along the way. Moving to 13th in points after this event, and a string now of 3 consecutive top 10 finishes. This is a solid recovery after Phoenix where we felt low a few races into the season.

However, no time to get comfortable as we have to go to the Concrete Jungle in Thunder Valley next week at Bristol and get the monkey off our back early on in the season at the short tracks.

Here is the replay from Texas 250 miler

Dynasty: davidan

Oh So very very close, but yet so far away. The team came into Homestead Miami off a solid top 10 finish at Atlanta the week before as we are in race 2 of a three race sequence on mile and a half tracks, with Atlanta followed by Homestead then our home track in Texas.

This week we had the race covered off heading to a comfortable victory, yes a victory in the race as we had a great long run car and a solid lead with just a few laps remaining. Unfortunately (for us) a caution came out to setup a Green/White/Checker finish and we just couldn't hold on to the victory as we over drove in and couldn't hold off the hard chargers.

However, still a solid run another top 5 finish (2nd of the early season) and we move up to 18th in points. The team now knows that perhaps ambitiously we can win a race this season to get into the playoffs. We will see if we can continue the momentum next week at Texas!

Dynasty: davidan

We are 5 races into the season and after coming off what the team viewed as an early season saver at Atlanta here is how things are looking.

We currently rank 20th in the standings after Atlanta with 1 top 5 and two top 10 finishes to date, and while we are not qualifying great we are averaging just outside the top 20 and that includes two DNF's. So consistently will be our big driver moving forward.



Looking upwards and what we can expire to, this is the top 8 in standings after 5 races thusfar in the season.



We move on next week to Homestead where we get to tackle another fun Mile and a Half Circuit that we are optimistic about going into after the race this weekend at Altanta.

Onwards and Upwards!

It's early in the season and it seems unthinkable to say a race is a must for a good finish to save the season right? Well, that's exactly how we felt coming in to Atlanta for the "Folds of Honor" 250. With 2 early season DNF's at Phoenix and Las Vegas during the early season west coast swing we felt like another poor finish would bury us and take months to dig out of.

Pleased to report the team managed excellent pit strategy to pull off a top 10 in Atlanta. We didn't have a top 10 car on speed, but we did manage to get a bit better life out of the tires than some teams and the cautions fell in our favor. So, we leave with a top 10 and some new life after this race early on in the season.

The Kings lose another close one, this time to division rival Portland Trailblazers. The Kings once again played collectively good defense as they forced another foe to shoot just 40% from the field, however the turnovers and fouls caught up to this young team.

Baby steps for the Kings is what head coach Rick Adelman is hoping can lead to success, the 56 year old head coach, who just shared a lot of success with the Kings before the league wide redraft of what is now known as the SGBA. Adelman was just at the top of basketball circles, but is now looking to reshape the Kings once again.

Billups. Odom. Harrington. Ginobili. Dixon. Fred Jones. Roger Mason. Kwame Brown. Matt Barnes. The young foundation for this Kings team features players that are 26 years and younger. The Kings had the disservice of picking in the back half of a fixed draft, but Adelman and first year general manager Richard Bowman have put a together a squad featuring youth, balance, diversity, and they're both looking forward to building something special with this core.

Kings fan should not be discouraged despite the 0-2 record, the Kings are playing competitive basketball and will look for their first win as they play the Memphis Grizzlies on 11/2.

We come off a top 15 finish from Fontana on the West Coast Swing and take the momentum (not) into Phoenix. Unfortunately we get sent pretty quickly back to the drawing board at this short track, the first of the season as we DNF pretty early.

Driver, David Anderson was quoted with "Just didnt feel right from the moment we unloaded from the hauler. I can't say it was all in the car, I was just struggling with the package and the track and didn't feel confident"

The team spent more time this race unloading and loading the car from the hauler than they did on the track. So we need to flush this one and head on out of the West Coast for now and to Atlanta to try to rebound.

However, this will be a critical track to focus on rebounding as we will be back here later in the season and it could be for high stakes in the playoffs should we play our cards right.



We have also shared a few pictures of the rig being used for the Dynasty! Enjoy!

It was opening night in Sacramento as the Kings took on the Cleveland Cavaliers in what ended up being a back-and-forth affair until the closing seconds. Sam Cassell and Brent Barry proved to be too much for this young Kings squad, as they routinely came up with big baskets anytime the Kings threatened to take the league. Peja Stojakovic also posted a nice 14 points while shooting 40% from downtown.

The Cavaliers were able to bully the Kings when needed and ended up shooting a staggering 33 free throws, which led to loud boos from the fans in attendance. Lamar Odom helped the Kings rally in the 2nd half, but it wasn't enough.

Coming into this season, the Kings are expected to compete for #1 overall pick in next year's NBA Draft, however, Rick Adelman believes his young core will surprise a lot of spectators this season. Adelman believes young outcasts Chauncey Billups and Lamar Odom will thrive in an organization that is committed to them. Billups has bounced around the league since being drafted #3 overall by the Boston Celtics in 1997, the Kings are his 5th team in 5 season.

Lamar Odom came into the league with a unique skillset back in 1999 when he was drafted #4 overall by the Los Angeles, however, despite all the physical tools and solid play, Odom has floundered on Clippers team with no direction. Adelman believes both Billups & Odom have what it takes to lead Sacramento in this new era of professional basketball.

Despite dropping their first game, the Kings were competitive and most importantly this young team bought in and was playing tough on both ends of the floor. It'll be interesting to see where the Kings end up this season. Could they end up sneaking into the playoffs as #7, or #8 seed, or will they win the LeBron James sweepstakes? We'll just have to wait to find out.

The west coast swing for the 2020 NASCAR season continues and I manage a 15th place finish to recover from the DNF a week before at Las Vegas. A good battle with Corey Lajoie and John Hunter Nemecheck in this one. Fontana is a track that it's important to manage tires and pit strategy even more than you normally would. I was able to do both and it paid off. While we were not the fastest car we were consistent and had a solid run.



This helps with the sting of the DNF the week before and helps us to hopefully not fall too far back early on in the season. We will have Phoenix next week a track we definitely need some work on.

We go from a top 5 at Daytona to start the season with Spire Motorsports and the David Anderson #78 Entry to an unfortunate end at Las Vegas with a DNF. Wish we could say it was due to something out of our control, but in this case it was simply driver error. David while racing hard with Jimmie Johnson for a few laps, gets high off turn 4 and into the wall , with a hard bounce off and an impending accident with oncoming traffic leads to a DNF.

Ok, it's been a while since I did anything with my Dynasty, so better late than never. Playing some NASCAR Heat 5 on XBOX Series X with a Logitech G920 wheel and pedals. I am an experienced simracer so I am using hard and expert settings wherever possible with minimal to zero aids. All races are run at 50% their published distance so in my case it's the Daytona 250, but that's so that I can do them in one setting, with no pausing, etc.

Also I will take only one shot at each race, if I DNF I dont restart it. That's the way it will be.

I am chasing something, hopefully a spot in the chase with this longshot team! Only have to win one race to get there!

As for the driver, I am David Anderson all races are with me in the cockpit cam primarily.

I race the AI the way I would want to be raced and make it as an authentic of an experience as possible. I am actually quite pleased with NASCAR Heat on XBOX Series X with my wheel settings dialed in. I have all the core content plus DLC, so hopefully the most authentic experience the game can provide on the XBOX platform.


Planning to run and hopefully blog as many of the races as I can, within the 2020 season in game. I have signed on with Spire Motorsports to drive for them along with Ross Chastain as my teammate.

First race of course is the biggest one, the Daytona 500 where we very much overachieved with a 4th place finish.
