Why they would pay for this but not iracing is a question I’d ask before doing it TBH. Especially since iracing’s idea to sell their service by kidding us that real racing drivers are actually playing against us in the same game is a better idea. For one thing you know, level, playing field, etc.The actual technology has a lot of potential for adding to TV coverage and so on. Including in other sports, but it’s clear as day that racing games on PC isn’t a large, viable market, especially where sims are concerned.It’s difficult to see why they went with simbin unless their preferred choices weren’t interested, which doesn’t bode well.

I’ve had my ass kicked by Dale Earnhardt Jr, Tomas Scheckter, Justin Wilson and Will Power on iRacing. Or did I imagine it, as iRacing made it up?

kill4f00d: SimBin really needs to get with the times an raise the visual quality of their content.

Seems moot. IMO, the only commercially viable use for this is Formula one. Which Codemasters have probably got the license for.

The announcement here of “a racing legend” only serves to confirm that, they had to temper our imaginations…or in other words, we came up with the names of real racing legends and they’ve got an old bloke who has driven on a track before.

That’s assuming it works at all, and is commercially viable in the first place.

iracing only have 5 digit subscriber levels, clearly the rest of the sim community prefer paying £20 to buy a game outright, and want to race for free, perhaps donating occasionally when Bram moans about it.

Montoya can’t see any issues in IE though so it might be worth switching browsers for this site.

Would it be a solution if Montoya could try fixing this using Firefox?
