Quote from racer hero :

I've been practicing some quali runs for Milwaukee, but can't get under 26.8xx. Any tips just to get me started?

my best is a 26.7 in prac. If that's my time then you should be certainly a bit faster.. I'll look for the set I have used. I think I already added it to the download area of our site Ken.

you don't need a mic at all?

Quote from DaveWS :

After having another shocker in the Mazda, (god that car just brings up all of iRacing's flaws, I'd like it to go burn in hell for eternity please) I decided to use $15 of my remaining $25 credits to get the Jetta. Man. So much more fun. I've only done a few laps at Laguna, but it's nice to be able to push a car without it snapping away from you before you have a chance to see what happened. In fact I might get Sebring for next week...

my only gripe with the jetta is that the sound isn't high enough.....

Quote from racer hero :

This week, Milwaukee Mile is next week.

am looking forward to this week in the mazda

Quote from racer hero :

Nope, ran over the curb too high in the fast left before the uphill, and spun it sideways, i was right behind him and had no where to go.

Ken, you were blisteringly quick in your first practice with a 1:20..... brilliant!

Despite spending the majority of his driving career in front of Gran Turismo, GT Academy winner Lucas Ordonez and teammate Alex Buncombe scored their first race victory at the Zolder circuit in Belgium last week, behind the wheel of the RJN Motorsport Nissan 350Z.

Not bad at all....

Quote from carey :

NK-pro. My reasoning behind this is purely feel, in that it’s the only racing game that has given me the same connection, which you have in real life between the car and the track. Of course this is just my opinion, but I’ve noticed that relative novices (that I know) say the same thing, which’s unusual as normally sims divide opinion and don’t unite drivers of differing levels.

yeah, I know what you mean.... from a feel point, NKP is excellent and the tyre physics are superb (let's hope LFS takes note from how awesome Nkp tyre physics are when they update). iRacing though is a complete package and from that point I do think it's excellent (though still needs work!!)

Quote from carey :

but it isn’t the best sim out there, so it certainly doesn’t justify their double whammy subscription model.

I'm intrigued... what is the best sim out there for you, and why?

Quote from keiran :

Just tried to play the new public beta and get this error when I press drive to move onto the actual game. "This application has failed to start because X3DAudio1_6.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Also a Microsoft .NET Framework error, Cannot access a disposed object, Object name: 'SaveReplayDialog'.

Any ideas?

you do have your .net u to date?

I can't get the hillclimb to work in this public beta....

in case anyone's not seen it, here's the video of the press conference for the launch of indycars on iracing

http://www.facebook.com/video/ ... v=123400255826&ref=nf

you've got to love the man from dallara saying how iracing are pushing them harder than the teams for information on the car. also justin wilson is a damm fine spokesman for iracing

thanks for the link. Just watched the whole thing..... Justin was very honest it seemed.

Quote from anttt69 :

Sorry to sound like a nub but does the race week end tonight (sunday)?
Last i heard it was Tuesday swap over.

for us Brits, last race is 10pm and then you get to race the next track at 1am..... prac and quali follow that...

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :

I think I may have said this one before, but Brotherhood (taegukgi) 9/10

thanks... will try to get this.....

Quote from PMD9409 :

Finally they add what we knew was all coming...

Now when I go to an Indy Car race I don't have to try and set a fast time in a TurdFactor simulator, it'll be iRacing FTW!

I think we'll have to wait a long time for some of the tracks like the airfield tracks....

the Indy was always going to be coming since they started to sponsor the indycar website.....

really good to hear it's on its way for Autumn though. Maybe it'll get here at te end of this season with the Corvette

Quote from pb32000 :

10GB/day is quite a lot to be downloading though.

I think its 10 gig a month usually!

Quote from danowat :

If anyone can point me in the direction of a cheaper, non F.U.P., high download limit, and preferably no limit overnight, ADSL2 product, I would be a happy bunny

have a look at http://www.thinkbroadband.com/

Quote from danowat :

I use Eclipse too, get 50GB on peak, and no FUP off peak, bit pricey though, £29.95 a month.

I download ALOT, and as far as I know, its the cheapest package available that gives you no FUP.

You get what you pay for I guess, I get top notch service from them.

that's good to know. I can't get much more than 1.5 meg dload speed due to where I live but I have the old evolution2 package and thats unlimited.

Just wondered... who do you use in the UK for broadband and what do you think of them?

I notice a lot of packages now offered by broadband suppliers now have a usage policy, limiting the amount you can download a month too.

============================

Provider: Eclipse
Have been with them for 6 years and they've been great. Fortunately, I got the package before they changed to a usage policy system and it's been excellent.
Cost: £15/month

Quote from Willem-racer :

thats a hell of a long time ago
and 20€ is way to much imo.

the only thing that's noticeable is that Rockclan gets off his arse to try and arrange stuff and all you can do is whine! The person that looks a muppet is you !
