You can always favorite cars for a personal list of cars for online. But of course it's just luck whether anyone else has them favorited at that time. You can always request they do though.
Racing tuned cars is fun on-line but it varies too much, they are all over the place in terms of the amount of tuning done, performance and what cars people have, it's rarely a fair race, fun yes - a great alternative, but not fair/even.
My point is that the variety of on-line racing is out the window unless we use stock cars.... so if i want to set up as a host with the following limits....
race 1 - everyone in a 458
race 2 - everyone in viper
race 3 - everyone in a f430
race 4 - everyone picking a random car around 500 bhp
race 5 - everyone pick a ferrari of any kind
race 6 - everyone pick a super GT type car
race 7 - everyone pick a Le-Mans type car.
...this is all completely out the window!
It's the 50 default cars - which are all quite different.
OR
it's a wing a prayer and a bunch of misfitted, tuned cars - ie an un-organised mess.
Never mind that a lot of people seem to have no favourites.
Never mind that , like I said - they even have the limiting options in there. I can go in and limit it to only rally cars.... BUT... I'm limited to the ones in the 50 default recommended set.
It's ludicrous.
I don't know how anyone who has played much online racing before hasn't done races like those above at least some of the time, and to be honest in my experience this is MOST of the time.
Back in PGR people would always mix up what people could chose from - that was the whole point of the server having a "host" who picks options. Does iRacing have a random crap-shoot of cars in each race or is it all generally about the skill of the driver? (I've never played iRacing).
Again, I'm from a motogp/project gotham racing background, and the tuned stuff online is a welcome addition, but where are the basics??
Where is "arcade mode" online? I'm a mystified about this.
(but Im serious

) because they are to dumb...
