iRacing pretend racing against real racing drivers

[dan]

I raced a field of 35 real life radical racers this afternoon and won, which was nice.

The coverage/commentary they're doing is actually surprisingly decent.

How did this come about? One off or are you doing this regularly?

[dan]

I regularly race the radical in iRacing so I applied to join this when it was announced. They're running the series for the regular real life radical racers who have nothing to do so 35 of those are automatically in. They ran a pre-qualifying session for nobodies off the internet which I was quickest in so I got into the race. I'm automatically through to the next round in 2 weeks now.

A friend did the iRacing N24 last weekend, came ninth overall and first in class. He'll be doing iRacing Le Mans in June. F1 esports has been entertaining, more so than the real thing imo.

Good effort
I’ve been watching esports since 6pm non stop
F1 is great as usual.
Then saw Indy on iRacing where Pagenaud braked mid corner to wreck Lando on purpose - he’s getting proper roasted over it online.
Then catching up on the All Star Series just because Vettel participated and I wanted to see how rusty he was, which was very

Haven't got to the race yet in the recording but that's very cool indeed. Well done Dan!

Will you even qualify for Indycar so you can beat Lando fairly

[Ascender]

Top effort!

Taken out by a professional racing driver. Cunt.

19:50, if anyone wants to see it. Nudged

So is that it? Over and out?

[dan]

I pitted for repairs and came back out in twenty something, I was having a lot of fun clawing my way back up and got to 15th before a backmarker drove in to me and terminally damaged the car so that was that.

Better make sure I start the next one out in front.
