iRacing

[Swarley]

Alright, finally getting the hang of Laguna Seca. Took me awhile to wash away how I brake/downshift in Forza and relearn it for iRacing. I kept downshifting where I would in Forza and it would just make the rear end unstable and push me around.

So now that I'm starting to get the hang of it, I ran a 1:56, 1:54, 1:54 and a high 1:52.

This game... I'm in love.

So these official races, do they run all week until the next one comes up? Like is Laguna Seca available to run all the way up until next Tuesday when it has Summit Point on the schedule?

Yep. Usually the schedule switches at around 6pm on Monday nights.

I'm pretty sure people aren't going to want to even touch Forza anymore.

Like I mentioned before, I have no desire to test and tune my car for the RR races anymore lol. I still look forward to Sundays just b/c it's a great group of guys. But yeah. This game just beats Forza's dick in the dirt with how much fun it is to drive.

Can be said for most of these PC sims games. So hard to go back.

Forza is still fun and I dont want to stop Sunday Nights...especially since we have more guys now

[Garrett67]

No, we won't stop. I love you guys. /homo

I am pretty sure I will never really be "good" at iracing so after a while the shine may wear off and frustration may take over.

That's the great thing about being sucky at one point. I've been used to it, so as long as I'm able to battle people on track, regardless of winning, it's still fun for me.

this is the setup I mentioned during the sunday night racing for forza:







- fanatec forza motorsport CSR wheel: compatible with PC/XBOX360/PS3
- club sport pedals with pedal tuning kit
- logitech G25 pedal adapter cable
- CSR shifter set (both H pattern and sequential shifters)
- CSR wheel stand

Guy wants $350 but I talked him down to $250 but still unsure if I want to sink all this money into it not to mention extra cars and tracks you have to pay for

Trust me , you'll be good. So will Swarley. He has already matched my best time at Laguna and I've been doing this non stop since I got the game.

$250 would be a great deal. I hope I didn't sound too critical the other night about the plastic on the top and bottom of the wheel rim, b/c you rarely, if ever, will put your hands there. The grips they do have at 9 and 3 are incredibly comfortable. That's definitely a good setup for $250.

As for buying more content, you really don't have to do that until you get up to a higher license and can run more series. The MX-5 races are all on base package content. Even if we used the $10 one of us may get from a referral to open our own league, we'd still just use the base content to run our races for awhile.

[jms493]

Thats a really good deal pepper. Jump onnl that. You could always sell it when u are bored with it.

$250 is a steal for that setup.

No crash video yet. Sorry Garrett lol. Here's my best lap around Laguna Seca so far (1:52).
