BUSINESS
History
IMTS is headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. In June 2001, Perfect Line, LLC (d/b/a NASCAR Silicon Motor Speedway) was formed to purchase, for approximately $1.5 million, the assets of SEI, including intellectual property and the contents of 14 of the 15 NSMS racing centers, which included 170 simulators. SEI showed these assets on its books at
approximately $30 million. In August 2002, Perfect Line became a wholly owned subsidiary of IMTS, through an exchange of shares that resulted in Perfect Line shareholders owning approximately 82% of IMTS equity. Simultaneous with this event, approximately $2.6 million in private equity financing was made available to Perfect Line. Approximately one-half the funding was used to retire the Company’s bank note and the balance was used for working capital.
In July of 2003, management began the process of revising the Company’s business model, changing the focus from the inherited Company owned and operated mall-based racing centers to revenue share, lease and purchased simulators for mall merchandise retailers, family entertainment centers, bowling centers, casinos, sports bars, etc., as well as for experiential mobile marketing programs such as the Sprint and Toyota NASCAR Fan Experiences and the DaimlerChrysler auto show
exhibits.
In late 2004, the Company raised funds through debt financing and began manufacturing new SMS simulators in 2005 to meet the demand. In late 2005 it introduced the new Reactor simulator, a more portable, mobile and affordable model for the market.
Funding the operations through revenues from the business and through primarily debt financing, the Company has laid the groundwork for a 2008 focus on the out-of-home, multi-site interactive gaming opportunity and the experiential mobile marketing industry. A recent license with iRacing.com, owned by John Henry (principle owner of the Boston Red Sox), and
David Kaemmer (co-founder of Papyrus Racing Games), owners of the Papyrus NASCAR Racing 2003, will potentially allow the Company to complete its modeling of the multi-player/multi-site virtual league gaming, although there can be no assurance that the project will be successful.
Overview
Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. (“IMTS” or the “Company”), an Indiana corporation, is a world leader in race simulation. Operating through its wholly owned subsidiary, Perfect Line, Inc., the Company manufactures two versions of race car simulators and sells racing experiences to the public through revenue sharing and
marketing agreements for the ‘out-of-home-‘ interactive gaming market. The Company contracts with operators in major malls, bowling centers, sports bars, family entertainment centers, casinos, and with third parties for trade shows and mobile fan interactive experiences. Under team and track licenses from America’s fastest growing sport, NASCAR, simulator customers experience driving in a NASCAR racecar that simulates the motion, sights and sounds of an actual NASCAR
event. The Company owns and operates its flagship racing center at the Mall of America in Minneapolis, MN. The flagship racing center features 12 simulators as well as a selection of popular NASCAR merchandise. The Company is positioning itself to be a world leader in the ‘out-of-home’ multi-player/multi-site virtual league market, and the experiential mobile marketing industry.
The Company currently has two versions of racecar simulators, the SMS (3/4 scale of actual NASCAR race car) and the Reactor (a smaller version built primarily for mobile marketing applications). In marketing these two products it leverages its strategic relationships and proprietary assets, which include sophisticated racing simulation technology (including 2 patents, and license agreements with NASCAR race tracks and race teams), to offer a unique and affordable race simulation
experience.
The Company’s business strategy currently targets: 1) end customers in fixed site venues who are gamers and/or NASCAR enthusiasts, and 2) experiential marketing clients, including but not limited to NASCAR sponsors, who use the experience to draw attention to their product display and to collect potential customer data and drive them to a website. In addition, under a new multi-year proprietary software license agreement with iRacing.com, exclusive for the
“out-of-home” race simulation category, the anticipated multi-player/multi-site virtual league offering is expected to engage the hardcore customers to compete in leagues and competitions on a regularly scheduled basis, although there can be no assurances.
Through strategic alliances the Company currently has simulator installations in over thirty retail locations nationally, as well as eight experiential mobile marketing units traveling around the country. IMTS plans significant growth in product placement to fully exploit the available fixed and mobile marketing venues both domestically and internationally, although there can be no assurances.
Perfect Line’s race simulators, including those owned by Race Car Simulation Corp., are currently featured in the following locations:

# Denotes assets sold to Race Car Simulation Corporation with no current revenue stream to Company
* Denotes that simulators are not yet installed
!!Denotes site that CFL has vacated and Company is in process of acquiring these simulators
The balance of the 192 SMS simulators built since inception are at the Company’s warehouses or Elan Motorsports Technologies where they were built. The Company has built a total of 44 Reactor simulators.
Pricing
In the flagship racing center, an individual 6-7 minute race is priced $9.00 and quantity discounts are offered with purchases of multiple races. Other racing centers have priced an individual 4 minute race at $5-$6. Customers pay an average of $25 per hour to use a simulator during leagues and competitions. Depending on the program or package, the targeted
yield for group sales averages between $300 and $800 per hour for the use of the entire racing center. Prices of merchandise range from $16 for a hat up to $200 for high-end leather jackets. Prices for the die-cast and collectable cars range between $15 and $65. The Company’s owned and operated flagship store provides the only means to generate revenues from merchandise sales. The Company does not receive any payments from the revenue share sites for merchandise sales.
In revenue share locations, the revenue share partner provides the space and the labor, and the Company provides the simulators and the license to use the software that operates the simulators. The revenue share split varies, but is usually in the range of 50% to revenue share partner, and 50% to Company. The Company typically requires a minimum guarantee per simulator of $20,000-$25,000 per year for the SMS simulator, and lower minimums are expected for the new Reactor simulators.
Lease agreements are typically monthly flat fees, and the pricing depends upon the number of uses per year.
Pricing for the sale of simulators varies between the age and planned usage of the simulators. A new SMS sold domestically is priced at $95,000, and refurbished SMS simulators sold domestically range from $65,000-$80,000. International sales can be 20-30% higher due to the added work that is required for use in other markets. Reactor simulators are sold in the $36,000-$38,000 range excluding support software features.
The Company’s Current Operations, Recent Developments and Plan for the Future
The Company’s goal is to leverage its patented motion platform and proprietary game engine software, along with its embedded base of simulator assets, to be the world leader in the “out of home’ interactive gaming market. The Company is currently leveraging its internationally unique, proprietary race car simulation
technology with domestic focus on the NASCAR experience. The Company believes that this can be done profitably through a combination of owned and operated racing centers, third party revenue share locations (family entertainment centers, major malls, bowling centers, casinos, sports bars, etc.), mobile unit sales and leases and the domestic and international sales of its race simulator products.
NASCAR racing is currently the #1 spectator sport in America. The Company has secured licenses with many popular NASCAR racetracks in the United States, and the cars driven by many of the race fans’ favorite NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers such as Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Tony Stewart. These licensing agreements and the use of NASCAR related identities and marks provide immediate name recognition, credibility, and authenticity to the experience.
The Company has integrated these license agreements with sophisticated proprietary racing simulator technology to create one of the world’s leading race car simulations. Simulator races take place on famous NASCAR Sprint Cup racetracks such as Daytona International Speedway, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Lowe’s (Charlotte) Motor Speedway, Atlanta Motor Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, and Richmond International Raceway.
Management is focused on the following mission for the Company going forward:
The mission of IMTS is to leverage its strategic relationships and its proprietary assets, including its patented motion base platform and proprietary software, along with management expertise to be the world
leader in vehicle simulation, featuring experiences that are unique, authentic, affordable, real time, global, fun and competitive. Global venues for the simulator experiences range from owned and operated racing centers, to revenue share fixed locations, to corporate driven experiential mobile marketing units. IMTS intends to take a global leadership position in multi-player/multi-site virtual league competitions for the out-of-home market.
A recent major development was the signing of
a multi-year proprietary software license agreement with iRacing.com, exclusive for the “out-of-home” race simulation category. The license is specifically for the game engine software that is used in the popular NASCAR Racing 2003 Papyrus game, and
includes the multi-player, multi-site capability. As iRacing develops new physics models for race circuits and race cars for the ”in-home” online gaming market, the Company desires to license those properties for its customers in the “out-of-home” market, although there can be no assurances. The Company has its engineers working on multi-site, virtual league play featuring additional NASCAR race tracks for our over 30 racing centers. Management believes that once
completed, the multi-site, virtual league play will generate an additional revenue steam for the Company and the operators, although there can be no assurance.
The Company has made several technological improvements to the simulation in recent years, resulting in an enhanced racing experience.
MySpeedway
was introduced in 2003 on IMTS’s website
(
www.smsonline.com
) that allows customers to find their recent lap times, and analyze their results to improve their performance by comparing their times to those of other racers throughout the country. Car parameters were also introduced in 2003 allowing racers to set up their cars to their personal preferences. Adjustable parameters include traction control, anti-lock brakes, spoiler angle, steering
ratio, front anti-roll bar, engine, transmission gearing, and rear end ratio. The operating system has been updated to a Linux platform, and beginning in 2006 was available as an upgrade to race simulator operators. The new operating system is incorporated in the new Reactor simulators, and will be incorporated into all future SMS simulators. The new platform allows for each simulator to operate on one computer as compared to six, and allows for improved graphics and game features as
they are introduced in the future. New and improved projector technology has also been designed into all future SMS and Reactor simulators.
For the Sprint and Toyota NASCAR Fan Experiences in 2007 and 2008, the Company added the capability of showing a pre-race video along with the option of showing interstitial or commercial video between the races. For Sprint, the Company also streamlined the data acquisition process and added a Top Twelve leaderboard that updates in real time within the Sprint Fan Experience and on their website for those who want to compare their lap times to other competitors over the race weekend and
win additional prizes.
Management is currently discussing with potential customers the opportunity to expand its patented motion platform to full size passenger vehicles, and creating customized experiences for each vehicle. This opportunity will likely begin with trade show and at-track experiences, and then potentially grow to local dealers, although there can be no assurance. Management believes the Company’s smsRaceNet, a technology that allows one to interactively experience a live racing event in
a 3D graphics race simulation in real time, also has significant market potential, although there can be no assurance.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Company may be party to various legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s subsidiary Perfect Line, Inc. filed a complaint in the US District Court Southern District of Indiana on December 6, 2006, against Checker Flag Lightning, LLC and Mike Schuelke, seeking a Declaratory Judgment,
Injunctive Relief and Damages for failing to make the required payments (at least $559,119) under certain lease agreements between Checker Flag Lightning and Perfect Line. On April 18, 2007, the Company filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment in the amount of $357,372 against CFL on Counts II and VI of the Complaint (amounts that are owed since January 1, 2006). CFL filed its response to the Summary Judgment and did not dispute the amounts due to Perfect Line, however the case has
been stayed pending the outcome of the Bankruptcy Proceedings as described below.
A Petition for Involuntary Bankruptcy was filed by Perfect Line against CFL on June 11, 2007. CFL filed a motion to dismiss the case based upon an insufficient number of creditors. The Michigan Court allowed more time for additional creditors to join the Petition, and the Involuntary Petition was granted and a trustee has been appointed, and is proceeding to administer the estate. Perfect Line has a first position security interest in 6 SMS simulators at the Gurnee Mills location
related to a $400,000 note with CFL, and has made an offer to the bankruptcy trustee for 22 SMS simulators that were in CFL sites. Another 8 SMS simulators that the Company owns are in the Jordan Creek site, and will be installed in future revenue producing sites.
Checkered Flag Lightning was a lease assignee of Perfect Line for the Riverchase Galleria racing center in Birmingham, Alabama. Since CFL vacated this space in June of 2007, the landlord for this space informed Perfect Line in July of 2006 of CFL’s failure to pay an amount due at the end of 2006 of $204,380. Approximately half of this amount was a
previous Perfect Line obligation that was to be paid by CFL under the terms of the revenue share agreement between the parties, and the other half were more recent CFL defaults. In July of 2007, the landlord did release the 8 SMS simulators and related assets that were in this mall site to the Company, and they were removed and stored in the Company’s warehouse for future installations. The landlord’s attorney asked the Company for proposed settlement terms at the time the
simulators were removed, and Company proposed a payment plan for $109,000 of the amount in question. The Company did not receive a response to the proposal, and on March 11, 2008 (over 7 months after the proposal was submitted), the Company received a complaint from the landlord asking for CFL and Perfect Line to pay rents and other charges totaling $1,166,557. The Company is in final stages of a settlement agreement with the Plaintiff whereby the settlement amount will be $101,000, and
will be paid over 12 months.
On December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and April 15, 2005, the Company entered into three Asset Purchase Agreements with Race Car Simulation Corp.(“RCSC”), a subsidiary of Dolphin Direct Equity Partners, LP (“Dolphin”), pursuant to which it sold forty-four (44) of its race car simulators that were located in existing revenue share locations, or had
been installed in new revenue share sites. The sale is accounted for as a borrowing in accordance with the guidance provided in paragraphs 21-22 of SFAS 13. While this transaction generated an aggregate purchase price of $2,856,600, it also depleted monthly revenue share payments to the Company generated by the simulators that were sold. In May of 2007, RCSC filed a complaint against National Tour, Inc. and its chief executive officer, Johnny Capels, personally. RCSC claimed that
National Tour, backed by a personal guarantee by Johnny Capels, owed the company at least $193,000 in lease payments plus interest and other costs under the lease agreements between the parties. The lease agreements involve twelve (12) of the Company’s simulators which were part of the 44 considered a “borrowing” under GAAP guidelines, and may be a contingent liability for the Company under the terms of its guarantee to RCSC under the asset purchase agreement. The
Company has an obligation under a Performance Guarantee clause of their agreement with RCSC to guarantee certain contracted revenue share or lease payments through 2007, and also has the obligation to find new revenue share or lease partners for the RCSC simulators under a ‘Most Favored Nations” clause in the agreement with RCSC In November of 2007, the Company removed an additional 8 of RCSC’s SMS simulators from the Syracuse, NY site to Incredible Pizza sites in
Oklahoma City, OK and Dallas, TX (four in each site). The Company and RCSC had been in discussions of how best to resolve the guaranteed payments due under their agreement when on February 24, 2008, the Company received a complaint from Dolphin and RCSC seeking $685,667 and other damages from a breach of the Performance Guarantee, Most Favored Nations and Non-Competition clauses of the agreements between the parties. The Company filed its answer to the complaint on March 24, 2008,
refuting many of the claims. The Company plans to vigorously defend the claims, and will argue that the payments guaranteed under the Performance Guarantee will be paid to Dolphin on a delayed basis due to an unforeseen bankruptcy of one of its customers, and unforeseen market conditions. The Company has recently proposed a settlement agreement to Dolphin whereby their investment and anticipated return is paid in fully by May of 2010. This is accomplished by selling 12 of the RCSC
simulators prior to that date.
On June 2, 2008, the Company received a complaint from Universal Studios, LLC as a result of defaulting on a $25,000 payment due on March 1, 2008. The Plaintiff is seeking $194,000, which is the $150,000 due plus penalties. They have called seeking a settlement agreement, but no settlement offer has been drafted at this time.
As of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is not aware of any other material legal actions directed against the Company.

None, not applicable.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the consolidated results of operations and financial condition of the Company. The terms “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us” are used in this discussion to refer to Interactive Motorsports and
Entertainment Corp. along with Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp.’s wholly owned subsidiary, Perfect Line, Inc., on a consolidated basis, except where the context clearly indicates otherwise. The discussion and information that follows concerns the Registrant as it exists today, as of this filing, including the predecessor of the Company’s operations, Perfect Line, LLC.
Overview
The Company has significantly reduced its operating losses from $588,918 in 2005, to $41,909 in 2006 and $154,595 in 2007. Since inception on May 31, 2001 and through December 31, 2007, the Company has accumulated aggregate losses totaling $10,160,262, which includes the net loss of $796,960 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the net loss of
$598,154 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, and the net loss of $8,765,194 for the period from inception to December 31, 2005.
The Company has funded its retained losses through the initial investment of $650,000 in May 2001, $400,000 of capital contributed in February 2002, approximately $2.6 million received in August 2002 from the sale of Preferred Stock, $700,000 borrowed in March 2003, $604,000 in net proceeds borrowed between February 2004 and June 2004, $2.9 million borrowed in
December 2004, net proceeds of $855,000 borrowed in September of 2006, net proceeds of $450,000 borrowed in September of 2007, $1.257 million received in the form of deposits for the placement of race car simulators in revenue share locations, or for the future purchase by third parties of racecar simulators and $871,649 by delaying payments to its vendors.
The Company has a history of losses, and the report of our independent accountants issued in connection with the audit of our financial statements contained a qualification raising a doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company currently is relying on prospective debt financing arrangements, and on simulator sales revenue using its
existing simulator inventory to offset its operating costs and debt obligations over the next 12 months, or until enough revenue share simulators are in the market to provide sufficient to cover these costs. As such, there is risk that the financing will not be available, or available on terms acceptable to the Company, and there is risk that the timing of the simulator sales will not coincide with the need for cash to cover operating expenses and note payments. If no meaningful
financing is secured by the Company in the near term, it may jeopardize the Company’s ability to maintain agreements with creditors to hold off taking actions against the Company for payments due. See further discussion under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Risk Factors” below.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company had total revenues of $4,384,880 compared to $5,351,298 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. The 27% decrease in revenue is due primarily to a decrease in simulator sales in 2007.
Review of Consolidated Financial Position
Cash:
The Company had $133,731 in cash as of December 31, 2007, compared with $216,323 at December 31, 2006, a decrease of $82,592. This decrease in the company’s position of cash during the year ended December 31, 2007 was due principally to payments to vendors and general
operating expenses. See further discussion under the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below.
Trade Accounts Receivable:
At the year ending December 31, 2007, the Company established a reserve of $78,776 for a portion of the debt owed the Company by Ultimate Racing Experience. The Company continues to pursue the collection of the debt owed the Company by Ultimate Racing
Experience.
Inventory:
At December 31, 2007, inventory increased by $64,739 from December 31, 2006 levels due primarily to the reclassification of simulator parts in non-depreciated fixed assets to simulator inventory held for sale. Simulators in inventory increased by $69,739 from December 31,
2006, levels to $310,357 at December 31, 2007. Merchandise inventory decreased by $5,000 from December 31, 2006, levels to $8,495 at December 31, 2007.
Notes Payable:
On December 31, 2007, the Company had an aggregate balance of $3,689,128 for Notes Payable. The balance consisted of $50,000 in related party agreements, $600,000 on the Ropart Note Payable, $1,286,729 on the 2004 Race Car Simulator Corporation (“RCS”) borrowing, $122,500 on the 2005
Agreement, $671,180 on the 2006 Agreements, $475,010 in the 2007 Agreements and $483,709 on other agreements.
Deposits on Simulator Sales:
During the year ending December 31, 2007, the Company recorded all or a portion of five simulator sales transactions. This activity resulted in the decrease of deposits on simulator sales of $7,935 to $1,011,158 as compared to the balance at December 31,
2006.
Other Liabilities:
Accounts payable, accrued payroll and payroll taxes, sales taxes payable, unearned revenue, and other accrued expenses fluctuate with the volume of business, timing of payments, and the day of the week on which the period ends.
Review of Consolidated Results of Operations
Revenues:
Revenues are comprised primarily of Company store sales, revenue share sales, and simulator leases and sales.
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007, decreased $966,417 or 18% to $4,385 million as compared with $5.351 million for the comparable period in 2006. This was the result of a combination of a strong simulator sales in the twelve month period ending December 31, 2006, and soft sales in the twelve month period ending December 31, 2007. Management believes that the timing of the sales transactions will balance out over the course of the next six months, but there can be no
assurances.
Cost of Sales:
Cost of sales as a percentage of total revenues was 19% and 24% for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, decreased by $425,300 or 34% to $835,904 compared with $1.261 million for the comparable period in 2006. The primary reason
for the decrease in cost of sales is the soft sale of simulators in 2007.
Gross Profit:
Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues was 81% and 76% for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Gross profit was $3.549 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $4.090 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $541,173 or 13%. The
decrease was primarily the result of lower simulator sales in 2007. Management believes that the timing of the sales transactions will balance out over the course of the next six months, but there can be no assurances.
General and Administrative:
General and administrative expenses decreased $428,131 or 10% to $3.704 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $4.132 million for the same period in 2006. The primary reasons for the decrease in general and administration was a $159,233 decrease in payroll related
expenses, a $21,098 increase in occupancy expenses, and a net decrease in other operating expenses of $289,997. The decrease in other operating expenses is mainly attributed to decreases in Research & Development of $114,569, decrease in Credit Acquisition Fee of $95,000, decrease in Depreciation of $91,997, decrease in Insurance of $31,664 and an increase in bad debt expense of $91,249 .
Operating Profit:
The Company had a $154,595 loss from operations during the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to a $41,609 loss for the same period in 2006.
Interest Expense:
Interest expense was $626,692 and $556,245 for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Income Taxes:
For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company’s income tax expense was minimal because of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company did not record a provision for income taxes. No income tax is due for this period because the
Company has net operating loss carryforwards from prior periods that fully offset the tax provision.
Net Loss:
The Company’s posted a net loss of $796,960 and $598,154 for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of funds available to the Company are receipts from customers for simulator and merchandise sales in its flagship owned and operated racing center, percentage of gross revenues from simulator races and minimum guarantees from revenue share and lease sites, the sale of simulators, proceeds from equity offerings including the $2,610 million
received in August 2002, proceeds from debt offerings including the $700,000 in Secured Bridge Notes and warrants issued in March 2003, the $604,000 in net proceeds from Notes and options issued between February and June, 2004, the additional loan of a net $100,000 from one of the existing Bridge Loan note holders, $2.9 million borrowed in December 2004, $122,000 from the 2005 Note, net proceeds of $855,000 borrowed in September of 2006, net proceeds of $427,500 borrowed in September of
2007, loans from shareholders, credit extended by vendors, and possible future financings.
The Company believes that it has generated a significant interest in its simulators, and that some combination of revenue share agreements, lease agreements and simulator sales agreements with both the original SMS simulator and the new Reactor simulator will be sufficient to fund the daily operations of the business until a larger scale, multi-site virtual league format can be established, although there can be no assurances. Current prospects include family entertainment centers,
bowling alleys, cruise ships, sports bars and large retailers.
The Company been pursuing for some time a form of debt or equity financing sufficient to eliminate cash flow concerns while the SMS simulator inventory is placed into the market and to complete its development of the multi-site league play, although there is no assurance that such funding will be available, or available on terms acceptable to the Company.
The Company has experienced periods of tight cash flow due to the unpredictability of the timing of SMS simulator sales. While management’s preference has been to install its SMS simulator inventory into revenue share sites in order to establish long term ongoing revenue streams, the Company’s cash needs have required that the Company enter into
purchase agreements from time to time, and may need to continue to do so in the future.
During the year ending December 31, 2007, the operating activities of the Company used net cash of $310,260 compared to net cash used of $735,985 for the comparable period in 2006. The drivers for the decrease in cash used from operations can be attributed to the increase in accounts payable and the amortization of the Dolphin financing agreement.
During the year ending December 31, 2007, the Company used $121,143 of net cash in investing activities compared with $84,956 of net cash used in investing activities during the comparable period in 2006. The decrease in cash from investing activities is primarily related to the placement of simulators in revenue sharing sites.
During the year ending December 31, 2007, the Company generated $348,811 of cash from financing activities compared with $684,084 of cash generated during the comparable period in 2006. The decrease from financing activities is primarily related to the payments on notes.
Cash flow from all sources (operations, investing activities and financing activities) was insufficient to fund the company during the year ending December 31, 2007, and resulted in an $82,592 reduction in the Company’s cash position. This compares with $136,857 in cash reduction for all sources for the period ending December 31, 2006.
The Company has funded its retained losses through the initial investment of $650,000 in May 2001, $400,000 of capital contributed in February 2002, approximately $2.610 million received in August 2002, loans from related parties including net proceeds of $687,500 received in March, 2003, and net proceeds received between February 2004 and June 2004 totaling $604,000, $122,500 in loan proceeds from the sale of the 2005 Notes between October and November, net proceeds of $845,000 in loan
proceeds from the sale of the 2006 Notes in July, net proceeds of $855,000 borrowed in September of 2006, net proceeds of $450,000 borrowed in September and October of 2007, $1.011 million received in the form of deposits for the placement of race car simulators in revenue share locations, or for the future purchase by third parties of race car simulators, and credit extended by vendors.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had cash totaling $133,751 compared to $216,323 at December 31, 2006. Current assets totaled $672,202 at December 31, 2007 compared to $726,018 on December 31, 2006. Current liabilities totaled $4,528,626 on December 31, 2007 compared with $3,843,284 on December 31, 2006. As such, these amounts represent an overall decrease
in working capital of $739,158 for the year ending December 31, 2007.
Inflation
We do not expect the impact of inflation on our operations to be significant.
Risk Factors
The Company is subject to certain risk factors due to the organization and structure of the business, the industry in which we compete and the nature of our operations. These risk factors include the following:
Operating History, Operating Losses, and Accumulated Deficit
Perfect Line, LLC was formed in June 2001 for the purpose of acquiring certain of the assets of SEI, a bankrupt corporation, and modifying and improving the mall-based business model under which SEI operated, as more fully described under Overview above. While the concept was a modification and improvement upon the prior model, the modified
mall-based business model was only in place for less than two full years, but also proved to be unprofitable. It is for that reason, among others, that the Company designed and implemented a revised business model focusing on revenue share and lease agreements with operators, and the sales of the race car simulators. Perfect Line is subject to numerous risks, expenses, problems, and difficulties typically encountered in establishing any business. For the 5 months ended December 31,
2001, Perfect Line had sales of $3,533,402, and a loss of $719,854. For the year ended December 31, 2002, Perfect Line generated net sales of $9,636,278, resulting in a net loss of $2,189,220. For the year ended December 31, 2003, Perfect Line had net sales of $7,557,978 generating a net loss of $3,525,581. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Perfect Line had net sales of $5,769,104 generating a loss of $1,235,419. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company had net sales of
$4,838,988 generating a loss of $1,095,074. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company had net sales of $5,351,298 generating a loss of $598,154. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company had net sales of $4,384,880 generating a loss of $783,367. This overall financial performance resulted in an accumulated deficit of $10,146,669 as of December 31, 2007 for the Company. Management believes the revenue from its owned and operated flagship site, upcoming sales revenues from
the new Reactor simulators, upcoming new sales and installations in revenue share and lease sites and revenue from potential new revenue streams (multi-site leagues and full size vehicle simulation experiences), will return the Company to profitability in the near future, although there can be no assurance. Absent some form of financing, the servicing of debt will likely continue to hamper the Company’s ability to achieve a net profit even though operating costs may be
covered.
Dependence on Discretionary Consumer Spending and Competition
Much of the revenue anticipated by the Company will ultimately be the result of discretionary spending by consumers and from experiential marketing budgets from major sponsors within NASCAR. If the current trepidation in the economy continues for an extended time or worsens, either overall or in the locations in which Company racing centers
and revenue share sites are located, the amount of discretionary spending may be reduced which would have a negative effect on the Company results from operations and its financial position. In addition, if the popularity of NASCAR diminishes, or if experiential marketing budgets are reduced, it is likely that the Company will experience a similar reduction in simulator usage, merchandise sales and mobile Reactor purchases and leases that will have a negative impact on the Company and
its future.
There is considerable competition for consumer entertainment dollars. The Company feels its patented technology, high-traffic, premium locations, licenses with popular NASCAR teams and tracks, and the ability to take its driving experience to the public through the activation of mobile Reactor experiences, create significant points of
difference between the Company and its competitors. However, there can be no assurance that these factors will be sufficient to assure successful product development into the marketplace.
Significant Capital Requirements and Need for Additional Financing
The Company has been and continues to build back monthly revenue share and lease payments that were given up as a result of the asset sale of 44 simulators to Race Car Simulation Corporation in three asset purchases totaling $2,856,600 in December, 2004 and March and April of 2005. The Company is also recovering from the loss of approximately $1.1 million in
claimed damages as filed in its complaint against CFL and Mike Schuelke. The Company is currently using its inventory of used SMS simulators and building new Reactor simulators to install within revenue share, lease or purchased racing center sites to meet the installation demand. At December 31, 2007, the Company had built, or partially built, 192 SMS simulators, of which 77 had been sold or were in the process of being sold, 24 were at Company owned and operated sites, 63 were in
revenue generating sites or in inventory ready to be installed in revenue generating sites, including 2 at the Company’s engineering office, and 28 were in the process of being repossessed by the Company from the CFL bankruptcy. In addition, the Company had built 44 Reactor simulators with 38 installed in mobile experiences, 5 in fixed sites or trade show application and 1 used by Company for trades shows and rentals. Reactors are typically purchased with advance payments that
cover manufacturing costs so that no financing is required by the Company.
Going forward, simulator sales (both SMS and Reactor) require an advance that will cover the manufacturing costs, so no financing is required for these installations. Financing will be required to manufacture the revenue share simulators that will be owed by the Company and installed into a revenue share partner’s site. The Company continues to seek financially viable revenue share and lease partners for financing these installations, secured by simulators as collateral and
minimum guarantee contracts.
Management has been and plans to continue to sell SMS simulators from its inventory base if necessary to cover cash flow needs until cash is built back up from any combination of revenue share, lease or new Reactors, although there can be no assurance that the demand will continue, or that the orders will come in a timely manner to meet the Company’s cash needs. The Company sold 8 SMS simulators and 14 Reactor simulators in 2007.
The Company has a history of losses, and the report of our independent accountants issued in connection with the audit of our financial statements contained a qualification raising a doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company currently is relying on prospective debt financing arrangements, and on simulator sales revenue using its existing simulator inventory to offset its operating costs and debt obligations over the next 12 months, or until enough revenue share
simulators are in the market to provide sufficient to cover these costs. As such, there is risk that the financing will not be available, or available on terms acceptable to the Company, and there is risk that the timing of the simulator sales will not coincide with the need for cash to cover operating expenses and note payments. If no meaningful financing is secured by the Company in the near term, it may jeopardize the Company’s ability to maintain agreements with creditors to
hold off taking actions against the Company for payments due
Dependence on Revenue Share Operators For Timely Payments
The Company relies on the timely payments from its revenue share operators in order to meet operational cash flow needs. The Company has also made certain performance guarantees and “most favored nations” obligations (installation priority) to Race Car Simulation Corporation (see Part 1, Item 3 Legal Proceedings). The Company continues to incur
damages from the default on payments from CFL related to their assigned mall leases and revenue share agreements from around the country (see Part 1, Item 3 Legal Proceedings)
Dependence on Updated Technology and Licenses/Leases
The Company will likely have a need to routinely update and upgrade its simulation technology. If the Company is not able to retain appropriate personnel with the skills and ability to maintain its simulators, it will likely have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company will also need to routinely upgrade the appearance of the simulators to
closely approximate that of the then current NASCAR sponsors. This updating may involve significant time and expense and, in certain instances, require additional license agreements from new teams and/or sponsors. The Company will also need to renew existing licensing agreements with NASCAR teams and tracks. The Company currently has executed either contracts or term sheets with many of the prominent NASCAR Sprint Cup teams and race tracks. The Company has incorporated to date six
NASCAR tracks and over 30 NASCAR Sprint Cup car images into its proprietary software. The Company has the rights to many more prominent NASCAR tracks, and plans to add tracks to its software once funded.
Dependence on Small Number of Key Management Personnel
We do not have employment agreements with any of our employees. Our future success depends, in part, on the continued service of our key executive, management, and technical personnel. If key officers or employees are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, our business and our ability to raise capital could be harmed.
Our business is especially dependent upon the continued services of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, William R. Donaldson. Should we lose the services of Mr. Donaldson, our operations will be negatively impacted. The loss of the services of Mr. Donaldson would have a material adverse effect upon our business.
Officers and Directors Have Limited Liability and Indemnification Rights
Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in the management of our affairs. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws, however, provide, that the officers and directors shall have no liability to the stockholders for losses sustained or liabilities incurred which arise from any transaction in their respective managerial
capacities unless they did not act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated the law, approved an improper dividend or stock repurchase, or derived an improper benefit from the transaction. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws also provide for us to indemnify our officers and directors against any losses or liabilities they may incur as a result of the manner in which they operate our business or conduct our internal affairs, provided that the officers
and directors reasonably believe such actions to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests, and their conduct does not constitute gross negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary obligations.
Market and Capital Risks
Future issuance of Common Stock of the Company, including the exercise of currently outstanding Warrants and the issuance of shares to Ropart Asset Management as part of their compensation for the 2003 Bridge Note, may lead to dilution in the value of our common stock, a reduction in shareholder voting power, and allow a change in control.
Stock issuances may result in reduction of market price of our outstanding shares of common stock. If we issue any additional shares of common or preferred stock, proportionate ownership of our common stock and voting power will be reduced. Further, any new issuance of common or preferred shares may prevent a change in our control or management.
The Company has 10,000,000 authorized shares of convertible preferred stock (with zero shares outstanding) that may be issued by action of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may designate voting control, liquidation, dividend and other preferred rights to preferred stock holders. Our Board of Directors’ authority to issue preferred stock
without shareholder consent may have a depressive effect on the market value of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, under various circumstances, could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control or other take-over attempt and could adversely affect the rights of holders of our shares of common stock.
High-Risk Investment and Restrictions on Marketability
Our common stock has traded on the Over-the Counter Bulletin Board since August 2002. The bid price of our common stock has been less than $5.00 during this period. As such, our stock is subject to the penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission that require brokers to provide extensive disclosure to its customers prior to executing
trades in penny stocks. These disclosure requirements may cause a reduction in the trading activity of our common stock.
Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Penny stock rules require a broker dealer prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules,
to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require
that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer makes a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receives the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.
Because we are subject to the penny stock rules our shareholders may find it difficult to sell their shares.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries
Indianapolis, Indiana
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We were not engaged to examine management's assertion about the effectiveness of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit as well as a deficit in stockholders’ equity. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 15. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

INTERACTIVE MOTORSPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp was incorporated in Indiana and began operations on August 3, 2002. Perfect Line, Inc. was also incorporated in Indiana, and began operations on August 2, 2002.
Effective August 2, 2002, Pacific International Holding, Inc., a Utah corporation (“PIH”), which was originally organized in 1986, changed its state of domicile and name by merging with and into Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. (the surviving entity), an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization. Per the merger agreement, each share of PIH common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective
date of the merger was cancelled and converted into four shares of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. common stock. Although it had been in a variety of businesses for over 15 years, at the time of the merger, PIH had limited operations.
Subsequent to the merger and effective as of the same date, the Company acquired pursuant to a Plan and Agreement of Exchange all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock of Perfect Line, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“Perfect Line”), from the Perfect Line shareholders in exchange on a “share-for-share”
basis for shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock. As a result of the share exchange, the Perfect Line shareholders held as of August 2, 2002 Company shares representing approximately eighty-two percent (82%) of the Company’s capital stock. Also effective as of August 2, 2002, the members of the Board of Directors of Perfect Line were elected to replace the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and the executive officers of Perfect Line became
the executive officers of the Company.
Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Perfect Line, Inc. (the Company), (1) owns and operates one flagship racing center featuring 12 SMS simulators and offering licensed NASCAR-branded entertainment products, (2) has ongoing revenue share agreements with third parties allowing them use of our NASCAR racing simulators and proprietary software, (3) sells its simulators and licenses its proprietary software to third parties, and (4) leases
its simulators and its proprietary software to third parties.. The cornerstone of the Company’s revised business model includes the expansion of the revenue share and lease base of operators, the prospect of offering the race center operators a multi-player, multi-site virtual racing league concept and the sale or lease of it new Reactor simulators for mobile marketing applications. In revenue sharing, the Company enters into an agreement whereby the Company is entitled to an
agreed percentage of the revenue generated by the simulator, subject to a minimum due each month.
As Perfect Line had revenues, operations, and business activity, for financial reporting purposes, Perfect Line is considered the acquirer, and therefore the predecessor, and the Company is considered the acquiree for accounting and reporting purposes. Due to the fact that the merger is being treated as a reverse acquisition, the equity of the Company has been recapitalized for financial reporting purposes. The operations of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. have been
included in consolidation from August 2, 2002 until December 31, 2007.
All information in this Form 10-K is presented from the perspective of Interactive Motorsports and Entertainment Corp. and its subsidiary Perfect Line and not from the perspective of PIH.
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has historically incurred losses, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include adjustments relating
to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
INTERACTIVE MOTORSPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
b. SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
The most significant estimates made by management are determining the estimated useful lives of the fixed assets, determining the obsolescence of merchandise inventory, and assessing the realization of deferred tax benefits relating to the Company’s net operating loss carry forwards.
c. CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2007 and 2006 include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Perfect Line, Inc. and Race Car Simulators. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
d. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all demand deposit balances and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
e. CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The Company maintains a demand deposit account where the balance in the account may at times exceed the FDIC insurance limits of $100,000. At December 31, 2007, the amount exceeding the FDIC limit was $33,731.
f. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Account receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a quarterly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Account receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are offset against the allowance when received.
At December 31, 2007 and 2006 the Accounts Receivable balances of $203,095 and $229,506 are net of a $78,776 and $238,781 reserves for uncollectible accounts related to old receivables.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
g. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
The Company records its property and equipment at cost and once in service, depreciates it using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective asset classes as follows:
Computer Hardware/Software 3 Years, Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment 5 to 7 Years
h. LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the related asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the assets. To
date, no adjustments to the carrying amount of long-lived assets have been required.
i. MERCHANDISE INVENTORY
Merchandise inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market as determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company reduces the stated value of inventory for excess quantities or obsolescence in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If
actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional reductions in stated value may be required.
j. MANUFACTURING INVENTORY
Manufacturing inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market as determined by the first-in, first-out method. These inventories consist of completed simulators that are ready to be installed in a site, as well as various components of our simulation system that have not been allocated to a specific site.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
l. CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS
The Company records all costs associated with the acquisition of components and build out of new sites in Construction in Progress. Once the site build is completed, costs associated with the build are recognized as a cost of sale or capitalized as Property and Equipment, and are depreciated as noted in paragraph (f) above.
m. DIVIDENDS
The Company has not paid any dividends and any dividends that may be paid in the future will depend upon the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors. The Company does not presently intend to pay dividends at any point in the foreseeable future.
n. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND UNEARNED REVENUE
The Company recognizes revenue for its services at the time the services have been rendered. In the case of gift certificates and customer deposits for group events, these amounts are deferred and recognized when the associated services are rendered or upon expiration. During 2003 the Company began a program of selling some of its new or used simulators. The Company has outstanding as of December 31, 2007, deposits of $1,011,158 relating to these sales. The Company’s policy is to
recognize revenue on a percentage of completion bases throughout the procurement and installation process until all terms of the contract have been met and no obligations remain for the Company to perform. The percentage of completion for any given sales contract is determined by the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated cost for each site build. Costs incurred consist of purchased components, outside services, and outside contract labor cost.
On December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and April 15, 2005, the Company and its two subsidiaries entered into an agreement to sell 44 of its race car simulators. The purchase price of $1,536,600, $720,000 and $600,000 respectively was paid in cash by the date of the agreement. In addition to transferring title to the simulators, the Company sold a management agreement to provide services for the term of the contract and sold 5,161,500, 1,080,000 and 900,000 common stock warrants,
respectively, which are exercisable for 5 years at $0.10 per warrant. The purchase agreement is being treated as a borrowing in accordance with the guidance provided in paragraphs 21-22 of the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 (SFAS 13). The purchase price is being amortized over a five year term with an annual rate of 15%.The annual amortization of the Dolphin borrowing decreased notes payable and increased net income by $474,031 and $408,382 for 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The annual revenue recognized was $706,432 and $706,432 for 2007 and 2006, respectively, and was offset by an interest expense of $232,401 and $298,050 for 2007 and 2006, respectively.
o. NET LOSS PER SHARE
The computation of net loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. The Company calculates loss per share pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (“SFAS 148”), Earnings Per Share. Basic loss per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during each year. Diluted loss per share amounts assumes conversion, exercise, or
issuance of all potential common stock instruments (stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock). Potentially dilutive securities including preferred stock, warrants and stock options are excluded from diluted loss per share during net loss periods because these securities would be anti-dilutive. The Company has excluded 12,494,414 of dilutive instruments at December 31, 2007.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
p. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates of the date of enactment.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the
period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with
the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statement of income.
q. ADVERTISING
Advertising expenses were $53,140 and $57,751 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
r. WARRANTY POLICY DISCLOSURE
The Company accrues a liability on the warranty of simulators sold for the cost of future repairs. In general the warranty covers the cost of parts, labor and travel for a predetermined period of time ranging from six months to two years. The warranty is determined by the Company on a per contract basis.

NOTE 5 - DEBT AND CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS
On February 2, 2004 and June 6, 2004, Perfect Line, Inc. issued notes bearing an interest rate of 9.6% payable in the total amount of $750,000. Each note came with an option to purchase common shares of the Company equal to the amount of notes purchased divided by the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of issuance. The notes became due on February 2,
2005, and $260,000 of the notes was paid in full at that time. A note holder of an additional $344,000 of the notes elected to receive a cash payment of $16,000 and exercise options granted with the note purchase for full payment of the note per the terms of the 2004 Agreement. The note holder of the final $146,000 in notes has been repaid $58,500 as of April 17, 2007, and the balance was assigned to two unrelated third parties, one in the amount of $75,000 and the other in the amount
of $12,500. The term of the note was extended by 24 months, and the pre-payment terms were amended to reflect that there will be no pre-payment option, while all other terms remained the same, including the expiration of the option 30 days past the maturity date.
On December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and April 15, 2005, the Company entered into three Asset Purchase Agreements with Race Car Simulation Corp.(“RCSC”), a subsidiary of Dolphin Direct Equity Partners, LP (“Dolphin”), pursuant to which it sold forty-four (44) of its race car simulators that were located in existing revenue share locations, or had been installed in
new revenue share sites. The sale is accounted for as a borrowing in accordance with the guidance provided in paragraphs 21-22 of SFAS 13. While this transaction generated an aggregate purchase price of $2,856,600, it also depleted monthly revenue share payments to the Company generated by the simulators that were sold. In May of 2007, RCSC filed a complaint against National Tour, Inc. and its chief executive officer, Johnny Capels, personally. RCSC claimed that National Tour, backed by
a personal guarantee by Johnny Capels, owed the company at least $193,000 in lease payments plus interest and other costs under the lease agreements between the parties. The lease agreements involve twelve (12) of the Company’s simulators which were part of the 44 considered a “borrowing” under GAAP guidelines, and may be a contingent liability for the Company under the terms of its guarantee to RCSC under the asset purchase agreement. The Company has an obligation
under a Performance Guarantee clause of their agreement with RCSC to guarantee certain contracted revenue share or lease payments through 2007, and also has the obligation to find new revenue share or lease partners for the RCSC simulators under a ‘Most Favored Nations” clause in the agreement with RCSC In November of 2007, the Company removed an additional 8 of RCSC’s SMS simulators from the Syracuse, NY site to Incredible Pizza sites in Oklahoma City, OK and Dallas,
TX (four in each site). See Part 1, Item 3 Legal Proceedings for details on the complaint filed by RCSC.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company may be party to various legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s subsidiary Perfect Line, Inc. filed a complaint in the US District Court Southern District of Indiana on December 6, 2006, against Checker Flag Lightning, LLC and Mike Schuelke, seeking a Declaratory Judgment, Injunctive Relief
and Damages for failing to make the required payments (at least $559,119) under certain lease agreements between Checker Flag Lightning and Perfect Line. On April 18, 2007, the Company filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment in the amount of $357,372 against CFL on Counts II and VI of the Complaint (amounts that are owed since January 1, 2006). CFL filed its response to the Summary Judgment and did not dispute the amounts due to Perfect Line, however the case has been stayed pending
the outcome of the Bankruptcy Proceedings as described below.
A Petition for Involuntary Bankruptcy was filed by Perfect Line against CFL on June 11, 2007. CFL filed a motion to dismiss the case based upon an insufficient number of creditors. The Michigan Court allowed more time for additional creditors to join the Petition, and the Involuntary Petition was granted and a trustee has been appointed, and is proceeding to administer the
estate. Perfect Line has a first position security interest in 6 SMS simulators at the Gurnee Mills location related to a $400,000 note with CFL, and has made an offer to the bankruptcy trustee for 22 SMS simulators that were in CFL sites. Another 8 SMS simulators that the Company owns are in the Jordan Creek site, and will be installed in future revenue producing sites.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)
Checkered Flag Lightning was a lease assignee of Perfect Line for the Riverchase Galleria racing center in Birmingham, Alabama. Since CFL vacated this space in June of 2007, the landlord for this space informed Perfect Line in July of 2006 of CFL’s failure to pay an amount due at the end of 2006 of $204,380. Approximately half of this amount was a previous Perfect Line
obligation that was to be paid by CFL under the terms of the revenue share agreement between the parties, and the other half were more recent CFL defaults. In July of 2007, the landlord did release the 8 SMS simulators and related assets that were in this mall site to the Company, and they were removed and stored in the Company’s warehouse for future installations. The landlord’s attorney asked the Company for proposed settlement terms at the time the simulators were
removed, and Company proposed a payment plan for $109,000 of the amount in question. The Company did not receive a response to the proposal, and on March 11, 2008 (over 7 months after the proposal was submitted), the Company received a complaint from the landlord asking for CFL and Perfect Line to pay rents and other charges totaling $1,166,557. The Company is in final stages of a settlement agreement with the Plaintiff whereby the settlement amount will be $101,000, and will be paid
over 12 months.
On December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and April 15, 2005, the Company entered into three Asset Purchase Agreements with Race Car Simulation Corp.(“RCSC”), a subsidiary of Dolphin Direct Equity Partners, LP (“Dolphin”), pursuant to which it sold forty-four (44) of its race car simulators that were located in existing revenue share locations, or had been installed in
new revenue share sites. The sale is accounted for as a borrowing in accordance with the guidance provided in paragraphs 21-22 of SFAS 13. While this transaction generated an aggregate purchase price of $2,856,600, it also depleted monthly revenue share payments to the Company generated by the simulators that were sold. In May of 2007, RCSC filed a complaint against National Tour, Inc. and its chief executive officer, Johnny Capels, personally. RCSC claimed that National Tour, backed by
a personal guarantee by Johnny Capels, owed the company at least $193,000 in lease payments plus interest and other costs under the lease agreements between the parties. The lease agreements involve twelve (12) of the Company’s simulators which were part of the 44 considered a “borrowing” under GAAP guidelines, and may be a contingent liability for the Company under the terms of its guarantee to RCSC under the asset purchase agreement. The Company has an obligation
under a Performance Guarantee clause of their agreement with RCSC to guarantee certain contracted revenue share or lease payments through 2007, and also has the obligation to find new revenue share or lease partners for the RCSC simulators under a ‘Most Favored Nations” clause in the agreement with RCSC In November of 2007, the Company removed an additional 8 of RCSC’s SMS simulators from the Syracuse, NY site to Incredible Pizza sites in Oklahoma City, OK and Dallas,
TX (four in each site). The Company and RCSC had been in discussions of how best to resolve the guaranteed payments due under their agreement when on February 24, 2008, the Company received a complaint from Dolphin and RCSC seeking $685,667 and other damages from a breach of the Performance Guarantee, Most Favored Nations and Non-Competition clauses of the agreements between the parties. The Company filed its answer to the complaint on March 24, 2008, refuting many of the claims. The
Company plans to vigorously defend the claims, and will argue that the payments guaranteed under the Performance Guarantee will be paid to Dolphin on a delayed basis due to an unforeseen bankruptcy of one of its customers, and unforeseen market conditions. The Company has recently proposed a settlement agreement to Dolphin whereby their investment and anticipated return is paid in fully by May of 2010. This is accomplished by selling 12 of the RCSC simulators prior to that date.
On June 2, 2008, the Company received a complaint from Universal Studios, LLC as a result of defaulting on a $25,000 payment due on March 1, 2008. The Plaintiff is seeking $194,000, which is the $150,000 due plus penalties. They have called seeking a settlement agreement, but no settlement offer has been drafted at this time.
As of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is not aware of any other material legal actions directed against the Company.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely that not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2007 and 2006:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES (continued)
At December 31, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7,285,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2007 through 2024. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2007 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in the future years.
The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

NOTE 14 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
In March of 2007, DGI, Inc., an Indiana corporation managed by and under majority ownership of William R. Donaldson, purchased fourteen (14) Reactor simulators for $574,000 from Perfect Line and subsequently leased the simulators to Sprint Nextel (12) and Toyota (2). Mr. Donaldson is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
NOTE 15 – GOING CONCERN
Since inception, the Company has financed its operations through debt financing and proceeds generated from offerings of its stock. The proceeds from these transactions have been used primarily to fund research and development costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses.
The Company has incurred substantial net operating losses since inception and negative cash flows from operating activities through December 31, 2007 resulting in an accumulated deficit of $10.2 million. During fiscal year 2007, cash decreased from $216,323 to $133,731, largely due the continued interest paid on debt.
The Company recorded a net loss of $796,960 in fiscal year 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $133,731 in cash to fund operations.
The Company is dependent on available cash and operating cash flow to finance operations and meet its other capital needs. If such sources are not sufficient, alternative funding sources may not be available. The Company believes that cash on hand plus the additional liquidity that it expects to generate from operations will be sufficient to cover its working capital needs and fund expected capital expenditures over at least the next twelve months.
INTERACTIVE MOTORSPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 15 – GOING CONCERN (continued)
The Company has a history of losses, and the report of our independent accountants issued in connection with the audit of our financial statements contained a qualification raising a doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company currently is relying on prospective debt financing arrangements, and on simulator sales revenue using its existing simulator
inventory to offset its operating costs and debt obligations over the next 12 months, or until enough revenue share simulators are in the market to provide sufficient to cover these costs. As such, there is risk that the financing will not be available, or available on terms acceptable to the Company, and there is risk that the timing of the simulator sales will not coincide with the need for cash to cover operating expenses and note payments. If no meaningful financing is secured by
the Company in the near term, it may jeopardize the Company’s ability to maintain agreements with creditors to hold off taking actions against the Company for payments due.
NOTE 16 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 18, 2008, the Company entered into a Second Lease Amendment, Security Agreement Amendment and Early Expiration Agreement with Universal CityWalk. The agreement released the Company from any future obligations under the lease and allowed the Company to vacate the premises on February 15, 2008. The parties agreed to a settlement and release fee to be paid in
installments between February 15 and July 1, 2008. The first $25,000 was paid in January, and the second $25,000 was due on March 1 and has been delayed (See Item 3. Legal Proceedings).
On February 6, 2008, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Secured Bridge Note with Ropart Asset Management due December 31, 2008 and increased the note amount from $600,000 to $800,000, and the collateral was increased by 2 SMS simulators.
Payments on notes due in first quarter of 2008 with Mall of Georgia and Mall of America had been missed, and the Company was in communication with both landlords seeking more time to complete proposed financing before making payments. The landlords have been agreeable as of this filing, but there is no assurance that their agreeable position will continue until payments are
made.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and
directors; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human
failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate,
this risk.
Notwithstanding the existence any material weaknesses in internal controls, we believe that the consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 and our consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’
equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with GAAP.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only our management’s report in this annual report.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Mr. Donaldson has been a major influence in the international racing industry for over 25 years. He served as the Executive Vice President of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (“IMS”), the largest spectator stadium in the world, and concurrently served as President of IMS subsidiaries, IMS Properties and IMS Events. At IMS, he was on the executive
management team that initiated such events as the NASCAR Brickyard 400, Indy FanFest, the Senior PGA Tournament held at Brickyard Crossing, the Indy 200 at Walt Disney World, and the launch of the Indy Racing League. Donaldson also managed the Inaugural NASCAR Sprint Cup event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and he managed the launch of the Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta, and the American and European Le Mans Series. He has extensive experience with domestic and international television
broadcasting. He has a Bachelor of Arts degree from DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana.
Mr. Smith is a successful entrepreneur, whose business interests and ownerships have over his professional life, spanned a wide variety of products and services. With over 38 years of experience in business development, marketing, sales and finance, he provides a diverse level of knowledge and expertise to the Company. He was the founder of Catalyst Marketing Corporation, a public company that, under his leadership, grew to become one of the most successful telecommunications marketing
agencies for products and services of industry giant, MCI, which was later acquired by WorldCom. In 1991, he co-founded Tampa Bay Financial, Inc., a former venture capital firm that specialized in micro-cap, first stage corporate investments and, one year later, was selected as a member of the prestigious “Who’s Who of American Business Executives”. Mr. Smith has successfully engineered the turn around and revitalization of several troubled public companies and has
also been involved in capitalizing and taking many young private companies public through a reverse merger strategy.
Mr. Agajanian literally grew up in the sport of auto racing, with his family running racing teams and racetracks. He now owns Motorsports Management International, a multi-faceted company that is an industry leader in the areas of event representation, corporate consulting, and sponsorship negotiation. For the past 10 years, Mr. Agajanian has served on Motorsports boards such as the Automobile Competition Committee of the United States (ACCUS), the American Motorcyclist Association
(AMA, Vice-Chairman) and United States Auto Club (USAC) Properties. Mr. Agajanian’s company has been involved in securing hundreds of sponsorship arrangements and is the only company in the United States to offer star race drivers premium representation services in corporate structures, pension benefits, trusts and estates and contract negotiation. NASCAR SPRINT Cup star Tony Stewart has been represented by Motorsports Management International, and Agajanian also previously
represented Jeff Gordon. Mr. Agajanian’s car ownership division has entered cars in the Indianapolis 500 for 36 consecutive years and now owns one of the premier teams in the NASCAR Busch Series.
The Company has no standing or separate audit committee, but rather the entire Board of Directors functions as the audit committee. The Board of Directors has determined that due to the size of the board of directors, and the limited resources of the Company, it is in the Company’s best interest to have the entire board function as the audit committee.

Because the Company has not compensated directors to date, the equity awards table is not included in this document.
Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities
Indiana law authorizes, and the Company’s Bylaws provide for, indemnification of the Company’s directors and officers against claims, liabilities, amounts paid in settlement and expenses in a variety of circumstances. Indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted for directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing or otherwise. However, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

PRE-APPROVAL POLICY FOR AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
The Company does not have a standing audit committee, and the full Board performs all functions of an audit committee, including the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services before the Company engages an accountant. All of the services rendered to the Company by HJ & Associates, LLC after
March 18, 2004 were pre-approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
The Company contemplates working with its legal counsel to establish formal pre-approval policies and procedures for future engagements of the Company’s accountants. The new policies and procedures will be detailed as to the particular service, will require that the Board or an audit committee
thereof, if one is established, be informed of each service, and will prohibit the delegation of pre-approval responsibilities to management. It is currently anticipated that the Company’s new policy will provide (i) for an annual pre-approval, by the Board or audit committee, of all audit, audit-related and non-audit services proposed to be rendered by the independent auditor for the fiscal year, as specifically described in the auditor’s engagement letter, and (ii) that
additional engagements of the auditor, which were not approved in the annual pre-approval process, and engagements that are anticipated to exceed previously approved thresholds, will be presented on a case-by-case basis, by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, for pre-approval by the Board or audit committee, before management engages the auditors for any such purposes. The new policy and procedures may authorize the Board or audit committee to delegate, to one or more of its
members, the authority to pre-approve certain permitted services, provided that the estimated fee for any such service does not exceed a specified dollar amount (to be determined). All pre-approvals shall be contingent on a finding, by the Board, audit committee, or delegate, as the case may be, that the provision of the proposed services is compatible with the maintenance of the auditor’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions. In no event shall any non-audit
related service be approved that would result in the independent auditor no longer being considered independent under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There were no fees in 2007 which were not pre-approved by the Board of Directors. All services described above under the captions “Audit Fees”, “Audit Related Fees” and “Tax Fees” were approved by the Board of Directors pursuant to SEC Regulation S-X, Rule
2-01(c)(7)(i).
