Not having mid 90's NASCAR stock cars in @iRacing is just baffling.

Results

NASCAR iRacing Series

Fri open: Kansas

• Hall – P 21 Top Split.  The set that I thought was more stable really started to let go around lap 40.  At one point was 23rd 2 laps down after Green flag stops.  Caution comes out, take wave around, caution comes out, get lucky dog.  Back on lead lap, but then started behind all the lappers and they wrecked in front and killed my car.  Limped it home to 21st.  I did get caught in an early accident with minor damage and wonder if it is why the long run handle went away. 

•  

• Groves – Pwrecked out-ish, self spun and then it stopped shifting

• Stephen-p
• Adam -p 
• Greg – PWrecked

• Sunday Open

• Greg pWinner winner final restart pass

Hall – p 3  Great run, finished just in front of adam.  Best non plate top split run so far.  Needed a long run to get to the top 2

• Sunday fixed 
  • Mike –p.wrecked out
  • Tyler – P9. Was not a Sunday Funday after a grueling demo derby at Kansas. 16 cautions total in my split. Managed to only get 5x and showed some late race speed. Was not thrilled with this car on the track but I’ll take a top 10 anyday.

Official Series

• ndy 500 Fixed

• Ellis – Lap 21 and push to the wall and I knocked off the right front. Surprisingly they repaired it and I was back out three laps down. There were some confusion about if I could get a lap back or not but it didn’t matter I hit the wall again and then it became undrivable but no damage to fix. 

• Rochette – wrecked out 

• Kyle Friday P6. Started P3 and dropped back to avoid the aggressive drivers. Around lap 35 got caught up in someone else’s wreck and had to tow. Needed less then 4 minutes of repairs and decided to fix it. Came back out 3 laps down and way down in the standings. Worked my way back up through the field as drivers started to leave the race and eventually got myself up to a P6.

• Ellis – Chris Macguire 

• Michigan – supercars – wrecked, then p4

• “I can read him like a book.” Leader @swilson3_ is keeping a close watch on the driver behind him, and the effects caused by the virtual air. 37 to go.
• 29 to go – caution – It’s a spin for Strauss! @Donovan gets a little help around from the front bumper of Matt Bussa and we have pit stops once more!

• Differing strategies at the front on this restart. A few drivers stayed out, while most pitted.
• RESTART 24 to go: @CVincent34 and @MalikRayTTV lead the field into Turn 1.
• CAUTION! @bobbyzalenski is hard hard in the wall! @LoganClampitt_ is involved as well! 23 to go. Steven Wilson got some damage in that.

• Restart 19 to go – dejong vincent bowlin keister kirwan lowe manes guest wilson bourdeuea salas olat
• Vincent slower on older tires fadin on the outside lane stacking it up. Bowlin going for the lead but they wreck in farther back but no caution they keep going 16 to go, bowlin and kirwin get by dejong…

• 4 laps racing side by side for the lead bowlin trying super hard pinching down anything he can do to hold it… , but garrett lowe is coming and is now in the mix….
• 9 to go – lowe takes it 3 wide for the win he had a run and shoved in in the middle between kirwin and bowlin and collides w bowlin and he goes hard to the wall, kirwin gets knocked clear but saved the car – 
• It is near the end of the race, its for the lead bowlin should have known lowe was coming and would take it, it almost looks like a spotter issue, like the spotter didnt let graham know hey inside inside…

The Entire History of iRacing…

Robin Truswell – I know I’ve done a post or two like this in the past, but they’ve always been snippets and aspects and had vitally important parts missing instead of a full-blown “report”. As far as I am aware, nobody has sat down, and compiled/written an article detailing iRacing’s “life” from “birth” until the present day, so, as I had a spare Saturday evening, I decided to do just that.

Season 3 Road Series Updates

The first of these is the renaming of the MOAR to the IMSA Pilot Challenge.

With the IMSA Pilot Challenge concept replacing the MOAR, we have also split the GT4’s and Touring Cars into separate Open series as the C level.

we have also brought back the Global Endurance Series. This series features 24 hour team events using the same vehicles as the European Sprint Series.

we have updated the start time of the LMP2 Prototype Challenge- Fixed to run opposite hours of the IMSA series on the odd:45 time GMT.

• Groves – Pwrecked out – douche didn’t want to hold his brake and came up and took me out
• Greg – Pwrecked by taking it easy in the first 20 laps and someone didn’t like my entry to the corner or where i let off and wrecked me and said I was to slow running in 3rd place.

• Sunday Open

Hall – p wrecked out on lap 30 by a self spinner car last 80 more laps but blew up

• Sunday fixed 

Mike –p.wrecked out – around lap 20 another restart, i was around twentieth, they all wreck on the back stretch no caution yet i see cars scatter, i go way low on the back stretch and power up to try to get around a guy right in front slows way down i lock them up to miss him dart to left a bit and boom there is a car sitting there sideways stopped i couldnt see and just tboned in super hard…

  • Ellis – p15 – Guy in front of me lap 8 loses it, i cannot miss i pile in 30 seconds required 8minutes optional – so many cautions i get all 8 minutes fixed – 
  • Tom – pwrecked out – ran as high as p2
  • Kyle P Pwrecked out

Tyler – P 12 finished with a 4x after a grueling race. Was not a fan of this car on this track but the team kicked butt again helping me through the race. Thanks Tifosi!!!

• Adam – wrecked out

Rochette P17 you ever drive on what seems to be a nice dry road than all a sudden you hit something that is way too slick?  Thats the way Kansas has felt in the Gen7. Super slick in T1 all week trying to practice no matter what i do. But i survived many wrecks in this 1 even in top 3 at points. But couldn’t save myself when just spun and killed a few guys in the process with 50 to go

• Thurs Open  
  • Ellis – p. Wrecked out – i was the first caution got a hair loose had it saved but somebody came up into me. 2nd caution dove really low to miss it but plowed right in- later in the race went to slow down to miss something ahead and it came around and hooked right into the wall.

Rochette P-5 slammed and put in the wall lap 1 T2 got damage fixed but still down 13 rpms. Hung in there. Though had 4th but a blinker somehow beat me by 0.005 of a sec wtf

#we want damage model

https://support.iracing.com/support/solutions/articles/31000167091-2022-season-2-patch-3-release-notes-2022-05-02-02-

I don’t know all the details exactly but ultimately there was an issue found deep inside the code that forced us to post-pone the last patch until Today. This caused significant set backs on a lot of the development work that had been done to the next gen car and other cars. Rather than push out another patch with the new build weeks away, it was determined that the best course of action would be to continue the development work and release it with the June build.

DDR 5 wont be cheap and same is true of the new motherboard. It does have PCI Express Gen 5 – this will unlock full capabilities of future graphic cards….

And new DMI 4.0 link between cpu and chip set means more and better.

i9 12900k at 650 gets the nod if your a gamer.

i5 12600k is a good value at 320$. Still a generational leap over the comparably priced ryzel 5 5600xhttps://www.youtube.com/embed/-EogHCFd7w0?feature=oembed

Coke Race – Bristol

• Pre-race interview w Elliott Sadler. And in race too. Great insight on how he is managing the day to day of ESE, including making sure these guys are using telemetry. 
• So far, so good for the Coanda crew. 
• @KeeganLeahy leads, @MitchelldeJong1 is second. Last week’s winner @bobbyzalenski is third. Already 15 laps completed!

• Lap 17 TROUBLE! @DDuval42 got loose! @GarrettManes SLAMMED into Duval. No caution. Manes has a ton of damage.
• Still clean and green. @MathesonRacing started from the pits and is currently two laps down, in danger of losing a third lap. 35 laps complete!

• LAP 50: @KeeganLeahy continues to lead. He’s in a must-win situation for the @eNASCARCocaCola@iRacing Series playoffs. Still caution-free so far.
• LAP 53: They’re racing three… and FOUR-wide at the virtual

• It took 60 laps, but the leaders have finally caught lapped traffic.
• It looks like the high line is the place to be. 
• @KeeganLeahy can’t get around @znovak15 and now @MitchelldeJong1 is waiting in the wings to take advantage. 95 laps complete!

• Caution! Lap 102. Looks like @BBryant53 spun after contact with @Blade_Whitt
• Bryant stays on the lead laps and @jmullisracing gets a fortunate break with the Lucky Dog.,

• RESTART LAP 108: @23XIRacing teammates @KeeganLeahy and 
• @MitchelldeJong1 lead the field
• Biggest mover so far is @swilson3_, currently up 20 spots from 32nd to 12th.

• Two playoff drivers that need to turn it around and quick are 
• @jmullisracing and @BBryant53. 32nd and 33rd respectively, they’ll be in a must-win situation at Dega if they finish as they are.
• “Do you think in a million years that you’re going to be able to pass like that, Vicente?”@CaseyKirwan23 was not happy with this attempted bump and run.

• Got word ryan luza is running on a generator has no power.
• @mbussa75 is coming back through the pack, P13 currently. He came into this race as the fourth man in the Final 4 by points… He’ll need a little more to stay there if points are on his mind.

• Into second and aiming for the lead, @LoganClampitt_ is on the move! Just over 50 to go at Bristol!
• Race leader @KeeganLeahy pounds the fence with 50 to go.
• 63 to go: @LoganClampitt_ challenges @KeeganLeahy for the lead.

Race leader @KeeganLeahy pounds the fence with 50 to go.

Will that open the door for playoff foe @LoganClampitt_?

• Don’t look now, but the defending Bristol winner @RyanLuza is closing in. Now within two second of the Top 2… he only has 25 laps to catch them!

• 17 to go: CAUTION! @BowlinGraham crashed after contact with 

@vicente_salas14 And there’s a crash under caution! @znovak15,

Season 4 Build – Yay or Nay [Mike]

“Its a meh build”

“Not much sexy in this build. I’m happy for Hickory. The GT3 cars feel a lot different as well as the indycar. I feel I can attack harder into the corners than I could. The GT3 cars always felt like they had no grip going into the corner, than no power coming off”

“If they waited for Mt Washington until build week it would’ve seemed better”

“I think because the cup car wasn’t effected at all that makes it less too”

Season 4 is here! What addition/change are you enjoying the most in the new season? 🤔https://t.co/ABNN3IAOlq

Season Wrap Up Stats; a whole new system! [Brian]

Hello fellow stats nerds. You might remember me from the end of season stats that I’ve been posting up into each official series forum section… for like the last 3 years?

As you can expect, doing this was a fair amount of effort and since I’ve been focused on investing my time into developing and supporting my iRacing Reports Discord Bot project, I concluded that doing the end of season stats stuff as I had in the past wasn’t an efficient process.

Over the course of the last season I’ve been working on a whole new system to generate and share end of season stats for official series. You can now access season wrap up stats from 2021 Season 3 all the way back to 2017 Season 1 for all official iRacing series and special events over at this website:ihttps://iracingreports.com/seasons/Statistics and analysis of iRacing drivers and official series results

Use the filters at the top of that page to help you find the series/season you’re interested in.

I can still generate custom outputs for teams/drivers, that include specified people in all the tables and highlight their dots in the charts. This will become a bundled feature for my Discord Bot supporters for 2021 Season 4 onwards.

Fri open: Richmond

• Ellis –   DQ’d- w six to go. Kept getting run over from behind for some reason tonight like three different times. I spun off that road and hit the wall and the wheel spun quickly in my hand got a card up in it in it like sprained my thumb. 

Rochette P10 few people in my and Mike’s split had server issues. I had issues got booted under caution made it back down 3 laps. Enough cautions made it back to lead

• Sunday Open
  • Greg pwrecked 
  • Hall – p wrecked early 26th

• Sunday fixed 
  • Mike -p11 – got involved in several wrecks that were not my doing but soldiered on. Got a drive through for too many incidents but still had a decent run
  • Tyler – P8 – ran my normal, did not qualify and started in the back. Took my time and chipped away at the guys killing tires. Finished with a 8x dodging the disasters but finished strong. Thanks to the team for helping with pit strategy and when to push it. 
  • Brian – P13 ran pretty well all night.  Stayed in the top 10 until the GWC when I was dive bombed and the car pushed me up the track allowing several cars to pass.

• Race Bristol: 

• Wed Open:
  • Hall –p21.  Absolute wreck fest.  Sloppiest Top Split race since Martinsville.  5 times unable to avoid wreck, and twice it was severe damage.  Climbed to 21st by survival even with the BF at the end on the 5th impact.  Just took the lap penalty and lost no spots.  Iracing’s hamsters had a stroke twice during the race, and the second time the glitch that was happening to everyone took a lap from me.  For as tough as it was, 21st not horrific.
  • Ellis – p26 – was working inside lane and a guy got under me and got turned
  • Kyle P – P9 Started 14th and worked my way to the front. Ran consistent top 10 and then last 28 laps i hammered down and worked my way up to 5ht. Lap car lost it with 2 to go and i got collected was down 400 RPM but got to restart 3rd. I tried to block the low line and keep a top 5 but just didn’t have the power. Only received a 4x the whole race and kept the car straight until that last caution.
  • Greg PWrecked by Server issues
  • Rochette P engine dun gon blown up after some damage in a couple of cautions 
• Thurs Open  
  • Ellis – p.2 – led the most laps – this one hurt – almost had it won – ran off the tires

Dynamic Track, Where There Art Thou?

Bryan Black33 Tweeted about his regrets in missing the dynamic track changes in iRacing. Chris Overland was among those who commented his agreement.

I try to keep things positive but man do I miss dynamic track on iRacing. The game felt so alive & I wish the NASCAR industry could have experienced it during the PI. We were searching everywhere for grip & heat naturally balanced most lanes. Would love to be part of the solution

https://twitter.com/bryanblack33/status/1435130022457663489?s=11

It was literally perfect, track heat determined the fast lane, as the sun went down shadows would cool different parts of the track and create new grooves, and there was no single “fast” line. I miss it so much. https://t.co/ANyhLe81jX

iRacingReplayCapture

Yvon Cognard posted in the forums that he created an open source command line application allowing the capture of multiple camera angles from a replay where you can record the whole replay or configure specific ranges. It controls OBS and creates a single clip by camera angle, making the video editing synchronization easy. Writing scripts, you can also control the camera live, as it plays, and avoid editing.

You’ll find the application and more details here:

Results

NASCAR iRacing Series

Fri open: Darlington

• Ellis –   p2 – Led some laps and just had nothing for the winner – on the longer run he would gap me for sure – he would have a 10 second lead and I would short pit and wipe it out but eventually he would get by me and drive on – great run to back up my win
• Greg – PWrecked from lead with 100 to go
• Hall – P12 top split.  Should have been top 10, but self made mistakes threw it away including missing the pits on green flag stop.  Insane long run speed.
• Rochette P7 had speed stayed in top 10 through the first green flag stop when cautio. Came out just as i was leaving box putting me a lap down, moss the lucky dog for the next caution decided to take a wave around which did not work in my favor as i somehow ended 3 laps down for what was probably the longest green flag run i ever had in a nis

• Sunday Open
  • Rochette- P3 definitely had a great car again but lapped cars that wanna race ya and also not understanding what a wave around is kept me behind em 
  • Greg p Back problems

Hall – p wrecked out by a clue less lap car

• Race Richmond: 

• Wed Open:
  • Hall –p13 tough top split, green flag running except early caution, climbed from p22 start
  • Ellis – p.17 – was loose on the 1st caution and took a guy out. I moved forward and ran top ten pretty much as high as 5th. About 35 to go a guy on the inside came up into me and 5 minutes damage.
  • Kyle P – P4 Started P9 and hung out in the top for most of the race. About halfway through I slid through turn’s 3 & 4 on a restart brought out the caution. Fell back to P-19 and worked my way up to a P4 finish. With Stephen L getting a P3 in the same split.
• Thurs Open  
  • Ellis – p.4 – Ran back half of top ten basically. At one point I spun off but saved it and worked back up – I was on outside once and they checked the guy behind me hit me, knocked me down into inside car, which wreck him. Turns out to be the same guy i wrecked on Wednesday. Later he came out many laps down and waited until I came around then ran hard side be side with me pushing me up in the corners… I eventually let off to get away from him. 

Rochette P13 caught in late wreck blah

Camera Update

Davis Tucker announced in the forums that next season you will be able to hit ctrl-z any time when out of the car and then use the mouse to move around the world. The mouse changes your orientation, left/right buttons move forward and back, center button + mouse movement makes you strafe, and the scroll wheel changes elevation. They have an existing ctrl-z camera already, but it requires the camera tool be up and it does not use the scroll wheel or center button.

A fun read featuring the legendary Dave Kaemmer!

Dave Kaemmer, CEO of iRacing, sat down for an interview with Cnet Roadshow discussing iRacing, it’s history and future and comparisons with other driving games.

His thoughts on the comparison to other racing titles he said, “Every racing game manufacturer talks about how realistic they are, but from my biased perspective I think that’s all bullshit.” 

Most racing games, Kaemmer mentioned in the article, create a fantasy aesthetic where you, the player, are really, really good at driving — even if you’re not. “The reality is if you get a Ferrari and you don’t know what you’re doing, you’re going to crash it very quickly.” 

Kaemmer isn’t dishing details, but says iRacing’s long-awaited rain model is nearing completion, and that there’s much more to come: “I’ve been in an R&D phase now for a while. I’ve got a pretty big set of changes that I’d like to make that I think will make good improvements.”

• Hall = P11, top split, nice finish for car 27, even had an unplanned 4 wide moment
• Rochette P5 caught in some wrecks miss timed pace car on getting damage fixed was 3 laps down but comeback kid my way through back to lead lap and  landed another top 5 

• Sunday Open
  • Brian – p4 Screwed up qualifying. Set was stable and fast. Stayed consistent and worked my way up to 2nd, but settled in at 4th
  • Rochette- P11 Man Richmond fun to race but i got used and abused this morning got wrecked 3 times 16x and 17th after the checkered going through the grass on avoiding a wrecked at the line.

Race:  Tally

• Wed Open:
  • Hall – p12, taken out buy a guy diving below the yellow line, luck on a GWC to get a lot of spots back
  • Tom D. P wrecked
  • Ellis – p.1 – Ran top 5, never passed anyone to the right side, basically slowly gained positions through pitting and pit strategy. Led the most laps all the way to end. Late caution for a GWC I didn’t want to see had me on fumes. Another GWC would ruin me but never came thanks to DB Bowman. Check his twitch at twitch.tv/dbbowman to see my win… I owe DB a case a beer big time as he did not challenge me for the win, but agreed to push me and finish 2nd….Class act  – Two wins in a row. Check out his twitch 
    • The winning move was the last GF stop, he got up beside me and was positioning to beat me off pitroad, but I had a very perfect stop and got off first…

• Thurs Open  
  • Ellis – p. 4 – forgot to change out of the q set – so lost a lap taking tape off. Eventually got a lucky dog and worked my way back up – good fuel strategy put me up front near the end just had a bit of damage and couldnt pass at all…
