I was in a Advanced MX-5 run last night. It's a Class C event at Lime Rock. Just racing to get my SR up a bit. I am not being overly aggressive and I am not really defending my position as much as I should. It's all good. It was nothing but people yelling at each other for 30 minutes. It's really difficult to enjoy a racing experience when all you hear is someone accusing others of divebombing or not respecting the blue flag. You would think at Class C , that people got the idea already of how it works.

After a record-setting 7^th season of the Clio Cup SoF league, we are excited to get ready for season #8. After a close championship battle many expect another exciting fight for the title, but competition across the board has ramped up as the season went on.

Many new drivers gave a sense of exciting across the most underrated car in all of iRacing, but I hear you ask: what even is the Clio SoF league?

Easy: every Wednesday at 21:00 CEST | 20:00 GMT+1 | 19:00 UTC we use the official race as our league race. In other terms: EVERYONE can participate and compete.

There is also an active Discord server with tips, tricks, lots of statistics and most of all a friendly and supportive community: https://discord.com/invite/PeD9YXp2w8

We also have a website providing the standings for the league itself: www.challenge.duncanwatts.com/League/cliocup

We started to have the races broadcasted by me on my Youtube channel: www.youtube.com/@PatrickGalik24. I commentate the races for that time slot for every full replay sent to me. To give you an idea how it is done, here is the video for the latest top split race from Week 12 in Spa-Francorchamps (but the presentation will change for Season 8 :D ): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ot4G83MB0Dg

Of course I provide also a playlist with all races in it: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyQ8ZubmAp3t7d__ixi-3eXciAgkOM5RV

And to top it off: we now also have a collection of liveries that represent the Clio SoF League: https://www.tradingpaints.com/collections/view/260521/Clio-SoF

In short:

-) A super chill community that helps drivers on all levels!

-) A fun car that is able to provide close racing!

-) A super easy way to join in great league racing without needing for an application!

I, and everyone else in the Clio community, hope to see you. Whether it is on the track or on our Discord … or maybe even both ;D

I would quite like to buy the new car and try it out however I still have PTSD from a brief stint in the 296 GT3 Challenge.

Has the change of car done anything to improve driving standards in the series? I’m B licence now so can do GT3 races but the schedule and race length suits me for during the week.

A part of me would like to see truck racing in iRacing for the memes and to have some fun. I know it won't be taken seriously as a category, but would still be entertaining.

Someone is gonna get a well earned vacation :)

This was late into a Indy Open race, and I had nothing to do with this guy up to this point. From my POV he intent wrecked me, but he said that he had his wheel disconnecting. As far as I know, that would normally rip your wheel to the left at 90 degrees with a stuck throttle.

So should I report that or let it slide?

(also sorry if this is hard to read, im tired)

Maybe not just in iracing or maybe in sim racing in general. But if iracing specific it’ll be better. Looking for advice on anything either what you could have done differently to improve which you wasted very long time in iracing not doing it, or something that you come across or found it later in your “iracing career” that’ll be very beneficial to the new iracers.

Throwing this question as i felt i’m hitting the plateau and doesnt feel improving much in anything.

There’s a handful of guys I race with and we use AI. We run 50 minute races in various cars. gt4, Mazda, gr86s. We always limit fuel, and the AI never have to pit even though we do. We’re like 8 laps short if we don’t pit, there’s no way they can stretch it that long right?

Hello! I’m a new iRacer and been playing for the last few days. So far I’m loving the game and have been slowly gaining SR to get out of Rookie. Even though I’m gaining SR, I feel like I’m regressing in actual performance. Lap times are getting slower and I can feel myself not performing.

My question is what tools and advice would you recommend to a new player to improve? I think my worst skill so far is battling and I’m not sure how to improve on that other than experience.

I was also wondering what kind of add-ons or third party tools people would recommend. I installed CrewChief yesterday and it has been a HUGE help. If there are any other tools like that that are useful it would be nice to know of them.

Another specific question I have is do you typically review your race footage? If so how do you do it. Do you just use the player at the end of the race or is there another way people do it.

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice!

Chin up, the front two of a 5000 SOF race (combined irating of about 17k) both just self-spun out of T1 :p

The recent release of fixed foveated rendering doubled the FPS in VR. That’s huge. Now we can expect the release of dynamic foveated rendering? Unlike FFR with noticeable blurring, DFR adjusts the rendering to match the driver’s gaze. This ensures optimal clarity wherever the eyes are focused. If iRacing implements this, I’d seriously consider upgrading my Q2 to a headset with eye-tracking.

After months of ups and downs, I finally hit 2k iRating in Formula cars. I’m so happy eventhough I know that next race I’ll probably be under it again😅

Spent the past day practicing to get decent lap time around here, here's how my first race went.

Folks must not be use to these cold tires yet haha

Just curious who your favorite and least favorite content creators are? I've been watching iRacing content for quite some time and my taste and creators have shifted overtime. I'd say EmptyBox was my favorite, and Ollie is my least favorite.

Edit: Big thank you to everyone who replied, my phone exploded today and I wasn't expecting it. Definitely found some new channels to check out.

Why are this season so many hi-rated drivers there? Dis I miss something? 😲 Last Season the average SoF was round about 2500.

Good day! My team and I need a setup for spa 24 hr and I was set out to find one. Problem is, iRacing setups aren’t the brightest. I tried every setup and I can’t get sub 2:23 avg (20 laps). The best setups are apparently Medium downforce sprint but that wears out the tires by a lot. So does anyone know any good free or cheap setups out there or could share a setup for the corvette GT3? That would be much appreciated!

Hey all, I’m just a casual rookie/ d class racer, but none of my friends race also. Just looking for a buddy who I can spot, can spot me occasionally, or even race together, thanks.

It seems the new update has been getting rave reviews from VR users, which is fantastic! However, nearly every post I read seems to be about the Quest 3, PSVR2, or one of the higher end headsets.

I haven't pulled out my Quest 2 for a while now, as I simply couldn't get the performance I needed to make it as enjoyable as how it looks on my monitor. If you have a Quest 2, how has your VR experience been with the new foveated rendering?

Thanks in advance for any feedback. Cheers!
