I wasn’t debating why they look like it, I was posting an ugly disproportionate car.

the.cosmic.pope: gonna have to disagree on that, Aussie racing cars are meant to be humorous/cute-looking. It’s like comparing a low-brow movie that knows it’s low-brow and revels in it to one that takes itself seriously. Besides, the Aussies’ link to their road-car counterpart involves more than stickers

Anyways, sorry to have wasted so much space beating a dead horse, I just don’t think NASCAR and its road-racing subsidiary cares about the ‘car’ part of auto racing anymore.

100% agree with Siggs

Do not have super graphics, but looks VERY real.

The Riley is one of the better looking ones…the new Lola DP on the other hand is one of the ugliest cars I have ever seen.

erale,

The reason for pre-ordering DLC is because if you order 3 iRacing items at once, you get a discount. And for those who have all of the new content, there currently there wasn’t enough new items to get the 3 for the discount. So making the DP available for pre-order allows people to get the discount on all of the new items.

Sound quality is poor in the videos, but the sound is still pretty generic. Give us more brutal sounds.

What’s the point in pre-ordering DLC?

Oh iRacing, they sure know how to render beautifully the ugliest things on 4 wheels.

Seriously, can anyone name one other racing vehicle more ungainly and disproportionate than a DP or COT?
