Rain 🌧 is great for newer iRacers like myself because this is forcing you more experienced set in your ways drivers to drive a completely different way. I am learning for the first time in iRacings physics and to me it feels better than the dry feel.

@lilfurbal 3 ай бұрын

This race is legit incredibly difficult. You seem to pull it off like a pro though, hahah, very nice job. This weather condition is more challenging than actually having a decent rainfall and random areas are super slick and you can't really tell where those areas are by looking at them.

at 18:50 Jim tells you the safety license and rating of the car ahead, it was really nice for me to hear this because I added it and it hasn't even been released yet! 😃 The next release candidate / beta should have a bit more rain support in it, I hope you enjoy it and don't forget to read the release notes for all the new features, like reputation warnings and experimental fuel (if you're feeling brave).

Thats great. iRacing recently suggested they have not yet opened up the API as much as we might want. So we are unlikely to get messages, telling us how long till rain. Is that correct?

Hi Dave, there has to be a setting to put the HDR option for us on youtube, I have an OLED panel and I could see that you were using HDR because the colors were more on the green side , which means that the feed is HDR but no option selected on the player(youtube) for HDR.

Nice race! I was surprised to see my name in the grid. Tough conditions out there 😂 Imagine, I gave you a position twice. I spun lap 4 or 5, came back, made the three wide and spun in the same lap. It was the same corner like my first spin 😂😂 Oh dear, that was fun! Keep Racing!

@alegriasims3766 3 ай бұрын

In light of how difficult this is, two questions: 1. Won't people start avoiding these races due to how big a hit SR takes, and ruin participation? 2. How big of an advantage is it to have a DD wheel in these conditions? I've got a T300 and get uncontrollable spins out of nowhere, and dunno how much is lack of skill and how much lack of equipment. Thanks!

Hey, Dave. Perhaps you can make the standings at the top left a little larger. They can be difficult to see on a phone or when viewed not on a large screen.

@skipjrracing 3 ай бұрын

The graphics on a damp track could use a ton of work. The spray going on/off between sections of track that don’t look any different is just weird. Really there should be zero spray on any parts of the track that aren’t visibly reflective with standing water. Hope this stuff gets tightened up a lot because IMO it feels great to drive on, just terrible to look at.
