I personally do not like the price of iracing. However from what I’ve heard from my fellow gpl’ers, they feel there is little difference between gpl and iracing. However they have praised the FF and quality of the track. but as for physics some people still prefer GPL over iRacing. iRacing will appeal to the racers who think sim racing is real life even tho it will never be if that’s what iRacing are attempting. I’m interested in iRacing however the pricing is a deterrent.

As for hacking iRacing, watch out David Kaemmer is notorious for sue’ing people. He was jealous of redline’s GTP mod for nascar 2003 which totally rocked so he made redline strip it down.

All the players who will pay for it will see (or wont). Calculate all the costs together and you will shoot iR to hell. THIS Game is real, blah real, blah blah real! BLAH. and iRacing 2 is more real then? o.k.

The problem for me on iRacing is not the montly fee, it’s the monthly fee AND the fee for the content! Imo one of both would work quite good but both together is just working for freaks. I don’t have enough time to play for that money. Next thing is, it’s coded for real race drivers as training simulator, so it *must* be quite real as Dale Earnhardt,Jr and other real Race Drivers train with it. That’s a fact which makes iRacing much better physicalwise than rFactor. But for me, rFactor is my choice, because it’s modable :P :mrgreen:

Maybe they could let you buy blocks of track time. Then when I am busy and can’t race I don’t feel like I am paying a sub that never gets used.

I have tried iRacing … and it is fantastic, but no way am I paying for it monthly … I am ready to buy any sim that comes out but I want to own it …. play when I can with who I want… some of us have jobs and familys, and a monthly sub would be a waste of money.

If iRacing would release a off the shelve version … I would buy it in a minute … hint hint iracing …!!!!!!!!!

my 2 cents

sure iRacing was like rF 1.5 with improved phisics and ffb. However There are many thing iRacing doesnt have like realtime weather, realtime damage etc. for me rfactor is more than enough, i’ve seen 97% gamers in my country prefer to choose NFS series or GRID, they thought GRID has the best graphics and physics ever

2008 is the 5th year for rFactor… MP test demo came out in 2004.
The horizon line is much higher in iR, according to this video comparison. I think I can feel the track better this way.

The RFactor version looks much better. The IRacing track reminds me of GP3 graphics.

Well, as someone aready said, rFactor has been out for 3-4 years now and still does the jobb better than most of the competition. iRacing will not be successful due to the pay to play fact. I think Blizzards idea will not work on a our small community ´that is simracing. Sure some will cough up the money, but I´d say it will fail..

The stuck up “Few Lousy Dollars a month” brigade are welcome to iRental and their extortionate pricing.
When you read the RSC iRental forum and see wankers like a bloke called Cliff posting insults to anybody who dares disagree with him about iRental, you realise that you dont want to be part of this community anyway, regardless of the price.
