You can see his controls in the bottom right corner.

that video looks awesome

Quote from Jertje :

I'm so stoked they decided to keep the grids at a decent size!

yeah.... totally! Makes a massive difference, especially as this series should be close racing. My SR took a massive hit in the first race. I was punted off at turn two by a very over zealous ISR presenter

Still a lot of fun despite the car being wrecked. The Jetta is a real feel car

Quote from PMD9409 :

So it's just $1 to host, nothing to race?

If so, I'm expecting LM's on road courses the first week its out!

I remember reading something on the forum that was saying ages ago that there would be very little flexibility in what you can and can't do and it would have to mimic current series.....

What I want is Jetta and Late Model multiclass

It's going to be such a difficult balancing act I think. Too many private leagues and it will upset the apple cart for regular races and attendance.

+1


StableX: He's a guest driver just there for one race and getting no points, so there is no age restriction. Think of GTAL where they have guest drivers from IGTC/MoE, same basic concept.

yeah, I realise that but I'd have thought they'd want to give the guest slot to someone in the same age range to show it can work

Info on the series: SCCA

No I'm pretty sure it's 16-26 and to be a resident of North America.

aaah, ok..... weird they went with someone older for the guest spot...

Quote from S3ANPukekoh3 :

What is iRacing? How much does it cost? Is there a free demo version?
And is it any better than LFS or rFactor is your honest opinion?
And is it regularly updated..?

I've heard about it and some people seem to think it's quite good...

you can still go to http://www.radicalsportscars.com/racing/virtual-racing and sign up for a free month's trial. You need to add your credit card or paypal but you can cancel that in your account page once all setup for the month.

It's different from LFS and rFactor. LFS still has the best community of any sim but for racing, iRacing has the best environment I think.

It's updated at least once every 3 months.

The best offer on the table right now is $60 for 6 months including the Lotus 1979 F1 car. Additional tracks and cars work out to be between $15 and $25 each.

Quote from Gabkicks :

you have to be 26 or under. i forget the minimum age...

I'd be surprised if it was under 26 when they're sponsoring the iRacer this weekend in a guest car at Road America and he's 30.

you mean at Road Atlanta?

ROFL... I'm a little shocked they chose the DP rather than the radical or the Lotus... for the Pro Series.....

Quote from PMD9409 :

3rd in DP, and 3rd in CoT

Good enough?

Thats fantastic mate..... not easy in the level of skill I have seen by some... particularly as thats in both disciplines, thats awesome!

What??????????????? CTRA has closed? OMG... no way... must have been bcos their head admin didn't use a real sounding name

any LFS people won a pro race yet?

Quote from obsolum :

with my G25 using anything else than cockpitview... which isn't available in FM2 Using a steering wheel with a chase view is just way too awkward IMO.

totally right....

Quote from The Moose :

Yeah..i wish Tjeerd hadn't put that in the vid.... After seeing the possibility of Suzuka, Adelaide is perhaps a bit of a let down Still, it's a great track and a really nice conversion (imo )

We were asked to make it by one of the guys that were involved in making the track we converted it from.

I'll do my best to persuade the guys to do Suzuka. I'd love it in nKPro

the key to a succesful NkP change is the netcode...... has that all been rewritten?

nice

Quote from PMD9409 :

I know this is stupid to ask, but does anyone have a good Daytona set for the CoT?

I know its a long shot, but the set I have is not that great (Pro series demands alot).

only got a good set for the Silverado m8, sorry

good luck guys...

I did a Silverado race at Daytona today... man, that is really good fun and extremely tactical! Very close racing indeed!

Just did my first mazda race and crashed out with someone else at lap 7. With no resets allowed, I was out for the race

Lost 0.5 SR too for that. A class licenses really are not forgiving for SR -

2.12 SR now after losing 1.2 in SR for the license upgrade. Oh well, at least I'm allowed to keep my name there ***cough***

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :

Just had my first Truck race @ Daytona tonight, finished 3rd and only had about 3 yellows....



...but F*** me sideways with a large bargepole, that was intense. Being that close at that speeds lap after lap for 32 laps straight, siting nicely in 5th place but noticeing the 2 leaders are slowing in the last 5 laps. The leaders on the last lap at the last turn run out of fuel, then all hell breaks loose and I have to make a choice while running at 180 odd mph, ended up losing a possible 2nd place cause I di not have the nerve to keep it full on.

good on you mate. I can't drive that thing... I find them too loose and twitchy.
