I'm pretty sure it remains.
Well onto Laguna Seca this morning in the Rookie Solstice....First few laps were 1:55s but after a couple of hours practice I've broken into the high 1:49s. Now it's time to start thinking about good overtaking spots at Laguna Seca! I've driven it before but never actually raced here. I guess t2 is the obvious spot :P And on the approach to t5 maybe.
If you stop your subscription, all your stats, cars and tracks will remain until you come back.
Put a move down the inside going into the corkscrew.....that'll work
I'm likely racing MD in this next race, I'll be sure when he's lapping me to block like a mo-fo.
My computer had locked up with red bands across it for the second time, not happy 
Blackflag rule really needs some work, currently cutting the track gives you some sort of "half-black" that you need to clear off by stopping the car. Corkscrew on Laguna Seca seems to be really strict on enforcing this rule and situation where you have cars stopping on the road just after zero-visibility corner like that is just dangerous.
I just slow down untill it's cleared. I keep of the racing line, I don't see the need to stop.
yeah, I had that happen to me while I'm practicing to not be doing 3 minute laps around seca. I still hate it, the off track needs to be less sensitive. Classify off track as "4 wheels" not just 2 or 3.
I always thought that 2 wheels off is not ever considered as off track... So iRacing shouldn't either
Especially in qualifying it sucks because the lap you're on isn't legal anymore.
So we take to the streets and whine in their forums, not ours.
Fabulous plan
I will have to try that one next time.Well, you would have tried to block me like a mo-fo when I came up to lap you, except you had just spun off and were busy recovering
Just the sight of me in your rear view mirrors intimidated you into spinning. Muahahahaaaa!I didn't want to wreck the guys you were racing with.
Alternate Excuse: You were warping too much, I couldn't find you.
I'm not going to use an alien time as a reference
But I managed to do 1:00.7 after maybe 10 laps of practice. Fantastic little car and the FF is just amazing!
The credits from the annual subscription are deffinitely going to tracks.
I've basically decided VIR, Silverstone and Skippy are my 3 purchases.
(and then after that: Infineon, Homestead-Miami (The road course layouts look... interesting) and the Radical)
Maybe buying the Radical before the Skippy.

6 purchases give you 20% disco. 3 give only 10%
Does this happen to you often?
It's video driver related and I have not found a fix yet.
It sure is a hell of a sim, the Skippy is sure a blast.
If only I could play the damn thing without getting what you describe above after 10 minutes or less.
Yeah, except to make said purchases, I'd need "money", which I'm a bit short of as being unemployed
(or... <.< hmm, I could do that too :o)
With a bit of setup tweaking for the skippy I managed a 59.381 on lime rock. Best car I've ever driven in any sim so far.
Smth similar happens to me also when the PC is turned on for a long time, I start up any game, it plays for a few minutes and locks up with red bands (GeForce here, old GeForce did the same. Not ATI though).
Indeed, it is good to post complaints and improvement suggestions in the iRacing members Feedback forum aswell, the devs do post over there and are open for constructive criticism.
By the way the edge for the cutting corner rule is when you have more then half of the car off the track or off the curb. And you can clear the "slow down" penalty by slowing down for a second or two after a minute later aswell, if you cutted in the corkscrew you don't need to lift off immediately after the corner.
Some fairly reliable Solstice laptimes (magazine tests), which might be of some use:

Seems it should be a touch slower than an MX-5 on track, which is certainly going to be slower than an RX-8. The RX-8 can do a 1m50 round Laguna Seca, so that sounds about right.

So I could slow down in the slowest part of the track?
