And all of that for a 'pricing issue'.... (if you read the iRacing status website)

I struggled a lot with the dirty air, when I was behind someone. Just couldn't get back down in turn 2 without spinning out. I didn't have the time this weekend to do some public races , which didn't help either. But in the end still p4, so I guess not too bad after all.

Nascar Racing 2003? First online racing for me was with Nascar Racing 4.

I'm in there somewhere. Good old days with the pacecar that did not ghost thru you.
I think Jeroen joined around NR2002?
Sadly the old forum from simracing.nl is offline :(.Nope, I never bought NR2002. I started with NR2, then NR3 (but only offline) and then skipped a few titles until NR2003. I think it was during our first year in college, probably around September 2003.

iRacing asked on Twitter to share your oldest screenshots. While browsing I found some old NiS screenshots from 2013, with a familiar name... Feempy
Early NiS days were fun. The Saturday morning split was basically a league.
Does anyone else have old screenshots?
Brings back good memories. I can't remember if it was this race, but i do remember us having some great side by side battles.
It also make me feel old btw

I already have one. But thanks!
If you have a Watkins Glen one on that other hand....

I can't remember we had this little tire falloff the last time we ran here... I think my long run pace was pretty good, but the lack of tire degredation and the dirty air made it really hard to pass anyone. So I had to take a bit of risk with the pit strategy, but luckily it worked out and could salvage a 2nd place finish.
Carletto7777 I don't think Maik Albrecht was in this race..

I don't think the lack of stages is the issue. The Xfinity race had no stages and that was actually quite enjoyable to watch.
I think it's the car. Look at it this way, the Gen6 car, from a couple of years ago, was made for the (bigger) ovals. Big side panels and a lot of stability and downforce in the turns. The result was that racing on the (bigger) ovals got really boring, no passing and no incidents. But the racing at the short tracks and roadcourses was actually quite fun, while the car wasn't really build for that.
So NASCAR responded and tought the racing at road courses is fun and might attract a new crowd, so let's design a car for that: The Next Gen, with really good brakes, big tires an extra gear and a diffuser. The result is that the car is so good at road courses the races get boring (same issue at the short tracks), but now the racing at the bigger ovals got better, while the car wasn't designed for that.
So the conclusion, NASCAR should design a car that does not fit either road courses, short tracks or the bigger ovals and we should have good racing again.

We still haven't been able to get a working replay. Could anyone send one to class-b@virtual-oval.de
Thanks in advance!

Sorry @ Jeroen for that contact dive
I had to try something and locked my tires up (that was stupid..!)
Yeah that was a little bit optimistic
I was really struggling with my pace, so i get the frustration. The whole weekend I could run 1 decent lap, but then the laps after that, I lost 1-1,5 seconds driving 1.32 seconds lap times... it's like I cramp up when I brake for a turn and loose all my speed through the turn. After Frank got by, (got the position back thanks to some lappers) and Roland got by, I finally found some speed again and could keep up with Roland, until he made a mistake.
So p5 in the end. Pretty happy with that considering how the whole weekend went.

official.

I'm such a big idiot... A few cautions before we actually came in I was thinking of a fuel only stop, so I unchecked my tires. Then when we actually came in I forgot to check them again and basically made a double pitstop and had to restart at the back of the field....
Gratz to Daniel for the win and a strong start of the season so far.

Terrible race from me. No point coming up with excuses. I'm just sorry....
-
I think this was by far the worst setup I have ever driven. I think I was the slowest on track for the first 10-20 laps but I knew I was still turning the wheel to much, because this car just would not turn at all. The tires weren't as bad as Gabi's, but still ended with 22% RF after a run of saving tires, except for maybe 5 laps...

I won't race tonight. I am away with a couple of friends on a holiday weekend.

Apologies to everybody involved in my wreck. Thought i took the conservative road in the cold tires by not cutting the dogleg, but barely clipped the yellow line and the car snapped...
