Best bang for the buck home cockpit frame? by
GaryR
I'm looking for a friend that has a great wife and wants me to set him
up. I'll be using a real racing seat and most likely a G25 Wheel with
a real Momo wheel (350mm wheel) and a billit aluminum seqential
shifter afapted to it for starters. I have this one in mind for now,
looks solid and very...

iRacing's poor customer service and is overpriced. by
RobertMcTigue
After a year on the iracing service I find it to be fair at best. A
"premium service" price should produce "premium service". Paying for a
5 star hotel and getting 2 star service is iracing!! Aside from the
few glitches in the software, there protest system is setup so the
steward can talk down to...

iRacing - my opinion based on a short sampling by
jeffareid
A neighbor used the PR-RADICAL-ONE-MONTH try out iRacing recently and I got the
oppurtunity to do a few test sessions at various tracks.
The Radical drove OK, but some of the cars, have deliberately diffcult setups
that can't be fixed. The SRF (scca Spec Racer Ford), was particularly difficult
to...

iRacing Costs by
David Fisher's Left Testicle
Personally, I think it's too expensive as it is and they need more payment
plans. I don't mind paying for the content but i think the monthly sub is
too high, especially if you don't get much time a month to race.
A pay-as-you-race scheme would capture a whole swath of new people, imo.
Any...

iRacing Transmission and Drivetrain? by
David Fisher's Left Testicle
Has the above been put right yet? iRacing is supposed to be a training tool,
yet it allows flat shifting and has a homosexual auto clutch. It's about
time they forced the use of a clutch.

Blue Flags In rfactor by
David Fisher's Left Testicle
So what do the blue flags in rFactor actually mean?
According to most of the microbial life on the open servers, the blue flags
mean you have to pull over and slow down to let the faster driver though.
The poor little ******s seem incapable of overtaking anything without
ramming it off the road...

GPLRank Challange Tracks? by
APLer
I have decided to try to go the for "super ranking" (all the tracks and
cars therein) in GPLRank - as my time for the norschlieffe seems to have
stalled around the 9:00 mark - and I find that some tracks - notably
Anderstrop for one cannot be gotten to without "web page registration"
something I...

The good parts about iRacing (I'm done ranting now) by
jeffareid
After visiting my friend doing the free trial again, I did notice that
the drivers are quite courteous, at least with the rookie Soltice
events, so the SR factor seems to be helping. I think it would help more
if its formula was actually explained. For NR2003, laps per incident
is easy to figure...

NFS Shift - wondering how sim like it will be? by

The team working on NFS Shift includes 25 former GTR employess.
EA has the money, the people, the resources, and apparently
access to quite a bit of real world data to create a very
good sim-oriented game. In the case of Undercover, an arcade
game, in the video interview with Marc DeVellis, he...
