The Corvette and Spa are a good combo IMO.
Said after the race I didn't deserve to win as I wouldn't have caught him but that didn't do much.
Like my buddy says, its sometimes better to be lucky than good.
If I recall don't you get it for free now since you pre-ordered it and you got credits/money back that people will use anyway.
I'm pretty tired of that iRacing charasteristic, it's stupid how long they take to get content out. From the time a car is announced to the point where it comes out it has already been retired from racing, pretty pathetic really.
Can't wait for Asseto Corsa to finally come out!
I'm having the worst luck I've had in awhile now... My oval SR is tanking big time, and my Road IR has been getting bent over for the past few days.
Anyone know how to improve connection stability? I've DCed from my past few races... At the grid... Before I'm fine and after I'm fine, but the when it's time to grid I have disconnected the past few races in a row!
Any ideas?
Dump the wireless connection - this is the number 1 cause of connection problems.
No.2 is housemates downloading torrents.
No.3 is probably a dying ADSL box - how old is yours ?
After that, what's running in the background in windows ? There's an app which kills unneeded things for when you're gaming, but I can't remember what it's called...
Has your PC been ok before ? Maybe its a bit underspec, and you'd be better off turning down some of the GFX settings.
That's all I've got.
2013 Season 3 Schedule
Why are they dropping the GT challenge? That is the only series in iracing I actually try and compete in the championship.
Because they said it robs the GT classes in proto and GT and grand am...
So, they got rid of it... I was under the impression they were only getting rid of the mclaren from the group... But I was wrong![]()
Mac KTo be fair, the tracks this season in pretty much every series are good.
Happy to say that I've officially joined the iracing community![]()
polarbear345Just in time for the new season fights!
...and week 13....
I see they've shortened the Grand-Am races by 5 minutes. They shorten races every season, why? To attract more people? It's meant to be the most 'hardcore' sim but they keep doing things like this. I don't mind if they want to make iit accessible to more people, but why not add things to make it easier, not take away things that make it harder.
I think they did it so the GT challenge people aren't left kicking and screaming (which they obviously are)
It makes the races the same length as the GT challenge races, which they got rid of, so those drivers have an easier time adjusting.
They also did it in the proto/GT series.
Ok I see. They couldn't adjust to an extra 5 minutes?
It's not that I'm really worried about missing out on 2 laps, it's just that it's the trend they're going with. I've been on iRacing less than a year and I've only really raced the Mustang, V8 and Grand-Am and they have all had their races shortened in that time.
Yea, the majority have been shortened for sure.
Seems there may be a push for longer races though... Maybe they'll add a 80 minute plus series?
Yea, probably not, but it would be cool!

I would like to at least 2 races be longer endurance style races. Maybe 80 to 120 minute races with a pitstop. Only do this at the most popular tracks like Watkins Glen and maybe a Daytona road. Just to mix it up a little. The V8 series this season had something like that with some sprints and longer enduro style races.
