I see .. good software but not as strong underneath as you would
expect for the money or as perceived & touted by the far right
either.

As with most things, it isn't for all people. Different people get
different value out of various products and services. It comes down to the
individual deciding for their own needs if it is worth the price at the end
of the day. For me I feel it is. If you are someone that wants AI or other
specific features then iRacing defintely isn't for you, but that could be
said for any sim if you want very specific features. It is not the be all
and end all sim the far right claim, nor is it the pos ponzi scheme the left
makes it out to be. One thing is for sure, regardless of if you like it or
not, it seems a number of people both within and outside of the service feel
it is important enough to continually bring up, so it certainly remains on
the radar be it good or bad, when other sims and games come and go...

Let's face it - it is 2nd to none as a pure simulator but the HUGE
difference is the community aspect, forum and add a mix of real life drivers
and it's a clear winner - what more could you want?

Oh, and by the way, the Pro series, which is a feeder (top 50 qualify
for iDWC) for next years inaugural iRacind Drivers World Championship (iDWC)
is presently running. See Towler, Huttu, McLean, Purdy, etc going head to
head is a bit of a treat to say the least!

So what else is there that even comes close to stacking up to this? And
I'm serious - been out of the loop for a while. Is there anything else even
close?

as titled by you and other iponzi investors?. not sure i have ever
seen them in actual race cars performing at a similar level? so to
others, they're good at iracing, nothing more, than say the worlds
best mario brothers gamer? but i am sure it is entertaining, no more
than other race sims recorded before i imagine.

Who gives a **** about actual race cars - this is sim racing. What are
you doing wasting your time in this fantasy newsgroup stupid?

Forgot to mention - winner of iDWC gets money and prizes to the value of
$10,000 (and believe it or not, that's not monopoly money either).

the sim is shown and sold as the worlds most advanced based against
reality, in fact clearly it's not. can't be in current state and is
limitedly better than its predecessor which is 8 yrs older?

pro series only means they are the best at exploit racing not best at
racing because to be fast means bizarre unrealistic setups. when they
race real life this was reflected in depressive result

Like they were ever trying to pretend this meant they could be F1 Champs
were they? Sim racing is a sport unto itself bozo!

Pretty funny when the ****** thinks everyone else is the ******!
