Hey guys I just started after I'd given up on LFS due to too much bitching and people taking it way to seriously.

iRacing seems to be a much better game overall, but some of the driving by the new guys leaves a lot to be desired (got taken out twice by the same guy in one lap last night lol)

So who plays and for how long, what do/don't you like about it?

I personally am not a fan of the Safety rating and after the last race I did last night my SR is nearly back to where I started :whistling:

anyway feel free to add my as a "myracer"

They redid the tyre physics not too long ago yeah. It's still not amazing, you can slide the cars a little.. But no drifting. Really depends on the car as well. I've got a fanatec cswv2, cspv1, th8r

I used to do a fair amount of online racing, I have used iRacing a bit a few years ago, made it up into B grade but then PC passed away, then some never really got back onto into it. I will put up some pics of my set up. The SR rating can go south if your are in the wrong place at the wrong time, but that's racing I guess.

Came across this a few days ago. Heaps of fun, especially with a G27, but you wouldnt want a swear jar in the room..

After playing something like Forza 4 or GT5, you wouldnt think fanging a caged MX-5 around a track would be much fun. But wow, im hooked so far!

Hi see an old post but thought id give it a shot.

Recently started an I racing account. Loving the game, have been promoted to B licence only after 2 weeks. Love the game, am now running in the skip barber F2000 car series. I also run alot in the MX5 single series events and for a bit of carnage the Oval series hahaha. Man i always get punted ionto the walls in that hahaha best finnish was 3rd, and best in road is 3rd. Still a noob but enjoying the Wheel and everything for my PC just got a basic ferarri wheel with 2 bedals and padel shift.

Feel free to add me

Luke Emerton.

Anyone still doing this, since last post have won 2 weeks in a row in the official V8 supercar series and have had a stack of top 5 finnishes. My iRating is now up to almost 2000 at 1954. Oran Park this week and then one more week next week.

Bathurst is also being released in 2 weeks time so all you motor heads should come have a look.

1 month subscription to play is 15 but if you bulk buy for 12 months its only 70. Worth it if your a big racer like myself. Loving the game. Starting to also work on my oval license.

If your interested in watching the top V8 simulator drivers the Monday night races are broadcast live starting at 845pm EDST and the main race is on Live at 9:15pm EDST. Great to watch with commentary and all. As i said Oran park this week, some action always guaranteed.

Link here http://v8sonline.com.au/

Hope to see you all out on track.

Yep I'm still going at iRacing. Loving the Mount now they have it! Have made it now to A class in road and now trying my hand at oval racing. Don't think I'll ever get sick of this Sim! Bought GT6 a few weeks ago and the novelty wore off quick and went straight back to iRacing. And again if anyone wants to add me on iRacing feel free :)

bought Phillip island track last night and the VW tdi for some FWD love :P felt right at home. flat shift sequential is pretty cool too. just a shame diesel means the gear ratios and revs are all over the place.

I can't see Bathurst on the track list, is it released?

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
