The cts-v league sounds good to me.. I was going to wait for the thread to post my intentions.. but I got impatient ;)

I've been looking hook up with Mr. Red on iRacing, so count me in (tentatively). I'll be waiting to see the track list and race time before committing.
 
There was some guy who was drifting a legend around lanier in a practice at speed. I'd catch up to him in the corners and then try to pass him, then I ended up just wrecking trying to stay off of him, at least it was just a practice. I'm just gonna wait until the next South Boston week before I start racing again because I still suck at lanier.

I'm also now doing better in the MX-5 to the point that I'm sort of happy, I'm running fairly consistent 1:04-1:06's @ Okayama short course

I am also on my new account so I'm back to Rookie Oval 2.50 :lol:

Since I created my new account, iRacing isn't accepting the debit gift card I used for the old account. Is that common or is there a way around it?
 
did you use up your debit gift card on the old account?

If it has a 0 balance on it, i don't see why you can use it here.
 
I used it on the old account but I can't seem to use it on this account, it says please use a different card. I'm pretty sure there is still plenty of money left for the mustang and two tracks I wanted
 
It's a deterrent for people to not open multiple accounts. It says in the rules you aren't supposed to have more than one account under the same name, so I doubt they are going to be very helpful with that. You can probably go into the old account and delete the card from the file and then use it with the new account.
 
i am also pretty sure that they will delete your old account once it dies. don't think its very ethical (And possibly illegal) for iracing to keep your card details once your old account expires.

try to change and delete as much old stuff in your old account - address, card details etc.
 
They keep the account information like purchases and stats indefinitely, but the credit card info, yeah they probably delete that.
 
I made a "dummy" account to give iRacing a try, after that i decided to create another full on dedicated account, with the same card. So I guess it should be alright to use the same card since I did it.
 
It's been a day now so I'll give it another try but how do I go back into my old account when it's deactivated?

edit: it still doesn't work

is there a way to change my card on file?

I wonder if some body could help me, having abit of a brain fart!

I read afew pages back about a iRacing plugin/stand alone app too analyse race data, and for the love of god, I can't remember what it was called!?

For some reason I have iRace in my mind, yet a search on Google doesn't show anything.

Thanks Josh! That message made me feel quite good. I miss racing with you too.

The problem has been I have been too cheap:guilty: I still have only purchased one car (mustang) and no tracks. My membership expires in two months and I was hoping for a promotion($) of some sort before renewing.(crossing fingers)

Once my membership is renewed, I will more likely pick up one or two more cars, and some tracks. Right now I have mostly been racing the SRF (Spec Racer Ford), the miata, and been dabbling in the ovals.

I see you and my friend Wayne have been doing quite well in the Skippy. I am starting to think I should have bought that car instead of the Mustang.. but the Mustang is actually quite fun, and feels the most similar to GT5.

iSpeed a $15 donation or greater removes the advertisement.

Roush, there shouldnt be any issues, have a look at the post before yours and give Tuck a message as its worked for him.
 
Stupid mistake of mine, the card only had 15 dollars, so we'll see if my new one works

Two more noob questions: I know it's 2 dollars to host a race but is it free to join a hosted race?

And what is "studied" on your friends list

It was the iSpeed one, I remember some one mentioned lap analyser and that's the thing I want to try out.

Yeah that tool is amazing. It's helped me a great deal. I do not think I'd have won my race in the Star Mazda w/o it. It shows you *exactly* what you're doing wrong (or rather, differently from someone that's faster)

Don't forget to use this guide
 
Studied people are other racers that you want to keep easy access to, but they aren't really friends.

Joining hosted races is free.
 
Man those look sweet, any idea how much? I didn't look to hard for price or availability.

I read that guide a few weeks ago, it is awesome. Now I compare someone faster then me and in the analyzer I can see where I am making mistakes. It is a great tool at a very decent price.
 
Woo! 5th and one lap down and -.12 irating in my first mazda race! :lol: I started dead last and on the first lap some guy just plowed into me. I got 4 spins, 3 contacts(only one was my fault) and numerous off tracks, but I had FUN :lol:!

and those headsets look sweet, I went to gamestop today to look at headsets, I was looking for the turtle beach 7.1 surround sound ones but the guy there was so fixed on trying to justify the wireless stereo sony head set instead. but he was helpful in a way

edit: finished 2nd in the very next race with one car contact at the beginning when one guy spun and I had nowhere to go, I hit him so hard he flipped, and I got nothing but a car contact 4x. +.18 safety rating now which puts me at 2.62. otherwise the race was flawless.
