You probably didn’t notice on your calendar, but today is Tim Terry day at inRacingNews. Not only did our intrepid sim racing correspondent from the Maritimes deliver three (typically) top notch reports on the NASCAR iRacing.com Tour Modified Series, the NASCAR iRacing.com Class C Series AND the NVIDIA Cup, he is the subject of a profile by Pat Healey in the current edition of The Enfield Weekly News.
