Nikolos Aegeus has released a new spotter pack for iRacing, improving the simulation’s standard spotter.

iRacing members can follow the download link below, detailed instructions on how to get started with the pack are included.

Jessica, Darin & Shaun of InsideSimRacing.tv were recently joined by Image Space Incorporated's Gjon Camaj who visited the guys for an interview in an upcoming SRT episode. ISI's head-honcho did not come empty-handed though as Camaj showed off rFactor 2's user interface for the very first time. Below are six screenshots of the interface, showing off what looks like a major improvement over rFactor's much criticised UI-system.Taking a closer look, the screenshots reveal some very interesting details as the task bar gives away the version number used by Camaj for the presentation - 0.783. Also, we´re starting to get an idea on the ...
About a year ago, Team NLC announced a sucessor to their popular VLN 2005 mod for rFactor, planning to bring the 2009 season of Germany's popular racing series to the simulation.

The renders show twelve different car models sporting various liveries. While some models like the Renault Clio or the Mini Cooper S have been converted, others have been equipped with new parts such as the ...

Are you sure? The topic still says 2.0…
Paul, it is somewhat realistic. The cup teams use spotters at road courses like Watkins Glen and Ganassi Racing has been using spotters during the Rolex 24 too.

So they are allowing Mods on iRacing now? Seems to me they are deviating from their fair racing mantra.

Well Paul, you know those lazy NASCAR boys!! I guess they can’t use their mirrors as well as your IRL guys :)

iRacing has allowed the user to use custom spotter packs. I’m glad of this as I never liked the original spotters in any games. I always used the Jimmie Johnson pack, but I will give this one a go too. This isn’t really a mod in the sense we tend to think of mods. Just allowing different spotters for driver preference.
