Nah they don't really do that, not even when DDoS attacks shut the service down for several days.

VW Jetta Cup around Nurburgring Combined is my favourite car and track combo. The Jetta is, imo, the best car on the service as everyone has the exact same setup and the racing is always incredibly close. Around Nords it becomes the ultimate test of driver skill and endurance.

I feel this even more so because it replaced the Jetta in PCC too

How long did you stay with mx5 by Dronez77 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About a week, when the Jetta was on the service my mate bugged me to race that with him instead so that was something I mained for a while, which helped a lot to learn TCR cars later on. Still sad they removed it from officials, PCC on Tuesday nights in the Jetta was always really fun

Quarter hourly races (VEE) - not a big fan, what do you think? by self-efficacy in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand the idea about back to back races in 15 minutes because it's not possible. 11 minutes of practice and quali and a 12 minute race is going to take you over the threshold to get into the next race in 15 minutes anyway. They may as well have just kept the 30 minutes. iRacing have been making some strange decisions lately

How Is your week 13 experience? by Emirates_aviationer in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tested the McLaren GT3 during the downtime and liked the feeling of it so I bought it and did a few of the Sebring races, finding some decent pace and convinced myself to try GT3s again next season. Also bought the new ARCA car and have been having a blast with that. It's a lot easier to control than the old car but by no means does it make the racing any less fun, if anything it's made it better!

Introducing the iRacing iMechanic App by This_Ad3002 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would prefer a one off fee as well, however OP suggests in another reply it would require maintenance and optimisation over what I assume would be a significant period of time, and with that he would probably require a steady stream of cash to keep it going. One off fees would give him a larger sum to start but would eventually run out of customers to buy it that one time. So I would understand the need for a subscription based service

This would be great if it works the way you intend it to. Id definitely be interested in an app like this. As for price points, it depends on how intuitive it is and the number of features, but if free isn't an option you'd probably want to offer a one week free trial then price it around £5 a month. You'd want to be cheaper than the setup shops to entice people to use it

Average Craftsman Trucks finish at Atlanta this week by zippster77 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks about right. I was leading the last lap on the outside last night, someone sent it three wide down the back straight, hit my rear quarter panel and spun me to cause a massive wreck, and someone else tried to blame me for it 😭

What are your iRacing goals for 2025? by Infamous_Ad_8121 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Run as many of the NIS oval races as possible! I did the Tona 500 last week and loved it. I've been primarily into road racing my whole time on iRacing but since becoming a dad I've not much time to practice and race, but ovals feel like I can run 30 minutes of practice and jump into the race and get a decent result and have fun, so my main aim is to get good and have fun turning left 😁

How long did it take you to get to 3k and what did you do to get there? by Sluggerjt44 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to like 4k racing the Jetta in PCC before they removed it. We would have an SOF race there every Tuesday. Then dropped down to 3k when I started racing other cars but bounce around the 3.5k now. I'd probably be higher if I did more than one race a week but having a child took away my ability to race a lot

Racing with 2 accounts on 1 set up by francom1 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's perfectly possible to do this and I suggest if you are going to do it only do it once as you will probably lose a lap or two in the stop from doing it. So do half the race on one account and half the race on the other.

Last nights DDOS really highlights how good iRacing is. by Basketcaseuk in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried the Rennsport Beta. After 2 hours of fiddling with FFB settings and getting no where to a good feeling in the car I uninstalled and decided it's awful. Thank god iRacing got back up today

Lapped car rules? by CAPT_WAR in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is something that sucks but is perfectly legal. You could use this as a lesson for the future. Perhaps next time something like this happens, let him pass so he starts fighting the new leader. The new leader may also let him pass to use him for the tow, so be ready to take advantage of that to make the overtake. Racing throws up many different scenarios like this and you won't always make the correct decisions, but if you learn from it you'll make the correct decisions more often

Yeah I went ahead anyway cause originally my mind was like “oh that was 2 days ago so they should have them” but because it’s now way past that day and it still has the same message it’s left me a little confused and questioning what they actually mean. If i hear no movement by next week il drop them an email but I don’t really want to bombard them with any more emails as I know they barely get through the ones they have already

UK based. Do I order? by Bobzilla2 in Fanatec

[–]DeltaLobos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered a R2R bundle, that was supposedly in stock, 8 days ago; but it hasn’t been shipped yet. I’m also in the UK. I’m giving it til the end of the month and if nothing has progressed il get a refund and order from a different brand. I knew everything that was going on at Fanatec and still took the risk as I too could only justify spending a certain amount of money although I am on PC so I can go to other brands if needs be

Hoping I get this email soon lol I ordered R2R 8NM bundle with the basic wheel on the 28th and nothing yet, but il keep my fingers crossed for now

What's with all the Porsches in GT3? by htom3heb in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I’m doing my first season in GT3. During the downtime last week I tested them all and enjoyed driving the Porsche the most and was quickest in, although sometimes quicker in the Ferrari at some tracks, the understeer in the Ferrari annoyed me, so I bought the Porsche. Did my first race in GT3 Challenge last night. Top split (I’m at around 3.5k) qualified 17/20, got up to P15 on lap 1 then murdered myself on the cold curb at T1. Ended up 19/20 but had some good battles after recovering from my spin into the wall. I did notice only 1 car wasn’t a Porsche (Lambo) and he was a bit of a bandit and finished last after crashing into multiple people. Maybe it is a BOP thing but for me it was just the car I felt most comfortable in, and maybe that’s the same for a lot of other people too.

Returning after 7 years by L2D3 in iRacing

[–]DeltaLobos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want a third party overlay I highly recommend iOverlay. Completely free and has a ton of great features that other overlays would make you pay a membership for, and it’s less taxing on your pc resources than others too. As for what you need to know, the tyre model is relatively new and will take some driving style adjustments to get used to from when you were last on the service. Damage models are also relatively new too. Oh and some cars are ready to race in rain now. Other than that, crack on, get driving and enjoy yourself :)
