It will be worth $20/month to be in a place where there's no possibility
of you showing up FFS! LOL.

I smell a DK Plot!

Stop waving your pink hanky in the air like anyone cares, fop.

So, you expect it to be released and then never be updated ?

The monthly fee pays for it's constant development.

That's kinda the point I was making. I was being sarcastic

Don't worry, as soon as his mommy realizes he is wacking off on his

rock... me, i'll just kill filter him and his BS.

I got you Larry. I think Tim is winding up into full marketing mode, too
big an opportunity to miss

Anyway back on topic if the wife complains about the cost of iRacing I
will refer her to the cost of maintaining her hair. Given my folically
challenged status I must have saved more than enough to justify my
measly hobby...

....and I always imagined you with long flowing blond locks... perhaps
on a beach somewhere?

Lets do a few comparisons to what we have become accustomed to and what
may now be.

Accustomed to -

Patching and searching for patches
new mod installs and finding
new track installs and finding
mismatches online

and basic mass confusion and headache, especially for the budding rookies.

iRacing may delete all of the above (apart from installs which will be
greatly dependent upon choices). I don't know of any time in the history of
sim racing that getting down to the driving/sport has been as effortless as
it may now become - that's what we'll be paying for and I believe it will be
WELL worth it!

Brings back memories of the very early days of GPL - 11 tracks, 1
Lotus and lets go racing! But even that had teething problems getting
online races happening.

Pardon my ignorance and laziness to search the iRacing site - what is
the situation with weather implementation?
