I’m mainly a Sim racer for endurance events and was curious how many others there are out there that mainly focus on these events. I find shorter sprints a little too punishing in that one mistake/incident can cost you the entire race whereas enduros can be a little more forgiving.
I find personally a lot of satisfaction in doing the strategy as I’m not necessarily the fastest driver, but it can come up with some good strategies to find time over a long race.
What about anyone else? Curious to hear about your experiences and opinions!
From my experience doing 6-12h events in ACC rain can really add an interesting element to racing in general. It’s quite terrifying when your entire field of vision is nothing but grey! We did a 9h at Imola earlier this year and I think 6 out of those 9 hours were wet, it was a very difficult race but very rewarding if you manage to keep your nose clean that whole time!
I’m looking forward to the introduction of rain in iRacing, it definitely mixes things up setup wise in some cars! Though I must admit I’ve only limited experience in iRacing
I did a 6hrs of Bathurst once, no rain but ACC is def more of a workout to drive than iRacing regardless, with how much more effects and noises and ffb you get. Can’t imagine doublestinting as much in ACC as I usually do.
I run irFFB for iRacing and with some tinkering I’ve got the FFB to where I reckon it’s comparable.
There are some folk who’ve soloed entire races, they’ve gone down in folklore in some communities haha.
