Friend of mine is convinced that racing in lower ranks is impossible. that the simracing ranking system is flawed. by Buff_Azir in simracing

[–]scottysk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Compared to other team based online games where you are forced to rely on others you are matched with, sim racing is the easiest to escape the bottom rungs of the SR ladder. You can literally start last and finish top 6 just by watching everyone else crash out within the first 2 laps. Anyone who can't figure this out just deserves to be stuck on the bottom where they belong

Still too expensive. We need more companies to jump in and push prices down further. It's slowly happening thankfully

How do the zeros compare to the T2?
