About 

DRACAR is a gaming league dedicated to all things racing!  We race board games, combat strategy games, digital racing simulators, R/C vehicles and anything else we can get our hands on and race!

The DRACAR National Series is an open-invitational series to anyone who wishes to participate via webcam and chat room.  Visit the DRACAR Message boards and leave a message to include yourself in any of the DRACAR National Series events or email dracos@dracar.org

DRACAR started in 1999 as a Car Wars league and expanded each season to include R/C vehicles and racing simulators.  

For the 2002 Season, DRACAR will run events using board games (Formula De, NASCAR Champions, Car Wars), card games (Car Wars the Card Game), and XBox racing simulators (NASCAR Heat 2002 and Off Road Test Drive).

Two series will be offered:  DRACAR National and DRACAR Southwest.

DRACAR National will invite anyone, anywhere to play DRACAR across the internet via WebCam and chat room for the board games, and directly online via GameSpy Arcade and XBox.

DRACAR Southwest will be an in-person Series held at the remaining Strategicon conventions, GAMEX in May and GATEWAY in September.

The Gibson Cup Series

Held on an annual points-accumulation basis, driver's compete within the circuit to become "the Gibson." Each series' champion gets his/her name engraved on the fabulous Gibson Cup trophy. "The Gibson" status is awarded to the driver with the highest total score of points across every series and gets a 1/24th model of their car displayed proudly in the base of the trophy for the subsequent season.

Gibson Cup Prizes:

The points winner in each Gibson Cup series is awarded a personalized trophy and has his/her named engraved on the fabulous "Gibson Cup" trophy.
