iRacing - weather?
Had a quick browse over the site but couldn't find any info on this - so
what's the go with weather implementation? Is there any or any planned? Or is it still in the "not worth the cpu grunt" category or too hard basket? |

Based on forum discussions I think they plan to add weather, but I don't have any idea about time frame. -- Pat Dotson |

iRacing - weather?
No weather, no full flag system, and no pit stops so far as I understand it.
All are things to come later apparently. Consider iRacing a never ending paid Beta, this has both good and bad elements.

I believe it is forced cockpit view as well for those that prefer other
views. It will always be evolving as I understand what they are doing, adding more and more as time goes on, you can't think of it as a traditional boxed sim. I find their site lacking on these details, I really don't think those of us outside the beta testers really understand what is and isn't included.

Here's the catcher, the checkered flag will cost the most, and if you don't have it, you can't win ... ok, just joking |

The more you force people to sim (i.e. force realism upon people instead of force people into fantasy in order to compete with the other fantasy prone losers) the better! |
