Isn't it really odd that they never talk about _what_ simulator they run ?

Well, in that article (and in that ESPN video *** special they had
awhile back) they were talking about multiple sims. If you saw the
ESPN special it was kinda funny when they were talking to Elliot
Sadler about preparing for Sears Pt and they showed him playing
Thunder 2004 on his xbox, driving straight through the grass in every
corner while being amazed at how realistic it was.

I dunno what Stewart plays, but I guess everyone knows what Earnhardt,
Nadeau, Truex, and Majors are into. There was a nice segment on the
Texas edition of Nascar 360 that had Dale and TJ racing trucks online
in Jr's sim room.

Well if you back up to the main sports page...they have an article
about Thunder 2k4. That is why I linked right to the article...to avoid
*** confusions about which story to read. :)
You can bet that EA employs folks to feed stories to the press.
