iRacing Mosport – Reality Check

Posted on November 6th, 2009 in iRacing – 15 Comments

A week ago, iRacing added Mosport Raceway to the lineup of tracks in their online racing simulation. As with all their laser-scanned tracks, the virtual version of the famous Canadian track is very accurate.

You can check for yourself by watching the official track comparison video below, showing the virtual and the real-world version side by side.

Located north of Bowmanville, Ontario, Mosport is one of Canada’s most famous motorsport venues. The 4 kilometer track layout includes 10 turns and is one of the very few classical racetracks that remained almost completely unchanged over the years.

    The in car video is very poor, it’s virtually useless if trying to make a decent comparison, I stopped watching it half way through.

    Lol. You’d think they would be able to dig up a decent real life video given their affiliations with the real deal. The track looks superb though.

    the iracing track is really good, but, why the wheel don’t move?

  • Suarez10

    You can choose to have it moving or not.

    The track matches in every frame, I dont know if the bumps do though, but yes quite impressive.

    I tried some months ago the trial but it asks for the visa card, so I quit the process.
    I wanted to give it a try..

    you dont need this videos, iracing tracks are using laser scanning, so are the most real tracks ever.

    In every one of these comparison videos. “They” choose not to show the steering wheel movement comparison! I wonder why?

    This is one bad-ass racetrack, in reality and in iRacing!

    Maybe because they’re being made by the same guy, who happens to have his steering wheel off? :cool:

    Because that camera view doesn’t show the wheel movement.

    you are completely wrong…that camera don’t show the steering weel, is fixed, the steering wheel is moving only in cockpit view

  • Slimjim

    Where are all the shadows from the trees.?.. if they were added it would make the track much more realistic…and is that a real engine sound.? :weird:
