One of my all times Vince. If i posted all the trucks/cars Ive run yall would be lookin at over 150 or so pix from 2 years of this. And believe me the story is nuts...I got time to spin a yarn dont I?
Back in 2010 Melina was getting back from her ACL injury and was doing the .com chats. Well she and I had become pretty good friends at this point...and we talked alot on twitter. Well a friend of mine did up a special WWE truck dealing with Cena and Melina...Cena on the bed cover and Melina on the tailgate. Well Melina FLIPPED over that truck calling it "badass" and frankly that about sealied the idea of these trucks. Well what fully sealed it was the fact Melina agreed to even DESIGN one for me to race in the 2010 season (5 starts in it - 5 wins). After that it EXPLODED!! The Bella twins did up a truck, Brooke Adams currently has one in the shop. Even NON WWE and TNA stars have designed rides form e to run. But I always love the wrestling rides cause they take on a personality like Ive never seen before. its fun to run these BELIEVE ME

I've always loved the phrase "spin a yarn."
Anyway, awesome work based on the photos you shared. I have a soft spot for Camaros, so of course I like the Cena Camaro, but the design on the Cena Corvette looks awesome, too, even though I'm not a big Cena fan. The truck does look badass. No CM Punk vehicles yet?

Kudos to you for the work done, though. Hope you'll stay active.

Hi, and welcome to the Forums. Good intro, I enjoyed it.
Now, by racing is it on a game? 'cause these are all from a Video Game, you can tell by the graphics. Not that it takes away, 'cause I do online Wrestling, and I love it. Yes I do. Please make a CM Punk car and an Alex Shelley one! Show some love, broski. :haha:
nascar fan and wwe fan? Insert white trash joke here. Welcome to the forum partner, always great to see a new poster.
Ok so it looks like theres a 4th in the running to be made...CM Punk. First 3 in the running were Stone Cold, Triple H and for some reason AJ. A team mate of mine actually did a Punk up for himself a while back so I'll see if he can slap a big ol 3 on it for me.
Dealing with the fact of it being a "Video Game"...yes and no. Its a SIMULATION. In essance the rides handle like their actual counterparts. So a Cup car is tougher to drive on a road course than my Camaro. And an Indy car and F1 car are kings of roadies but on ovals are tougher to control than a Cup car.
For those who want to get in on this...Vince... it all depends on what youre willing to spend and do. Theres 2 big ones out there - iRacing and rFactor. iRacing is a constant subscription depending on what you want and its based on a class level. Its whicked popular and alot of pros use it. Tony Stewart was on it back in july before the race at New Hampshire. rFactor is a one time buy (or if you know someone with the exe...well...talk to me about that in private or on twitter) and thats it. The mods and tracks are free through tons of websites where as with iR you must buy them to keep up. Each one has a TON of leauges that run them and 97% will say you must run a wheel (depending on what you want anywhere from $80 to $1500 or more - no joke) but the big thing is to make sure your pc can handle it. If ya wanna get going with rF either PM me here or hit me up on twitter @ Big_Thor_Dawg and Ill hook you up with whatever ya need. I got a ton of links ready for those who want em

yeah i hear ya man...i had to drop $740 on my new gamer system last year because my acer crapped out. and another 230 for the wheel. Well worth it tho
Sweet, can't wait to see the new vehicles. Well, aside from AJ. That one I couldn't care less about. :haha: The others should be pretty awesome, and of course I'd be especially excited to see the Punk outcome.
