and down again

 

[David Barry]

And I was just about to buy the Lotus too, hopefully it will come back up before too long I'm really looking forward to trying that thing out.

 

[Simon Trendell]

Back up..

It's like a Yo-yo

The last lap of my first Lotus 79 race.. despite being my first I only got 4 inc points.. amazingly.

 

[James Yates]

Few screenies of the Lotus 79 at VIR Full:

 

[Mark Birney]

Awesome, looks like fun

Sounds are a little iffy though

 

[Simon Trendell]

It's just the deeper sounds that are missing, theres alot of rumbling around 6-7k rpm which is really cool

 

[Mark Birney]

Yeh, I suppose it's only the first few days of the Lotus.

 

[Simon Trendell]

Best crash ever!!

iRacing - proper clutch simulation?

As I will most likely get a iRacing subsribtion as birthday present i wondered if iRacing was simulating gear box systems properly.
I mean if I drive a h pattern car and dont use auto clutch, will i have to push the clutch properly and slowly release it again for each shift or is it as unrealistic as for example in all the Simbin titles where each car has the same 'shifting physics'?

 

[Mark Birney]

Woah, I hope he's ok

Shouldn't the wheel have come off there?

 

[Sander Hogendoorn]

Updated set attached in first post

 

[Kevin Ascher]

Anyone?

 

[Simon Trendell]

The clutch/gearbox modelling is actually worse than SimBins, but it's one of the most requested "Improvements" that are wanted, the issue is simply that they won't release the feature without it being as perfect as they can make it, unfortunatly that means that were still with a modelling that means flat upshifts, no need for a clutch, using the paddle shifters in a H-Pattern car and you currently cannot stall any car.

Thanks Simon
