looks like theres a few Iracers on here. Dont know if you all have seen this, but Landon Cassil is hosting a $1000 qualy challenge. Here is a c&p of the email I recieved yesterday.
Charlotte, N.C. (Nov 29, 2010) – NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Landon Cassill is pleased to announce the formation of a new online competition that gives iRacing drivers the opportunity to win $1,000. The Landon Cassill Qualifying Challenge invites iRacing drivers to feel the pressure of a one lap qualifying showdown on December 18th at the simulated Charlotte Motor Speedway. The winner of the event will receive $1,000 with a $2,000 guaranteed purse paying the top 20 finishers.
“I began studying on iRacing simulators back in 2007 and it has really helped my ability to qualify at the Sprint Cup Series tracks that I had not been to this season,” said Cassill. “Each week I would host a session at the upcoming Sprint Cup Series track on iRacing and work on qualifying runs. Eventually there would be 40 to 50 drivers that would join the session and challenge my qualifying skills, so I thought it would be cool to create a competition to see who was the real iRacing Qualifying Specialist”
The Landon Cassill Qualifying Challenge will be managed in the iRacing hosted sessions by STPC ( http://www.STProCup.com ) and held on Saturday December 18th with preliminary rounds on Friday, December 17th. The competitors will be driving the Chevrolet Impala SS with a fixed setup to be provided roughly a week before the event. In the main event, each driver will run one lap, one at a time with the winner pocketing $1,000. Spectators can watch the Main Event at WRN ( http://www.webracingnetwork.com ) beginning at 9:00PM EST.
I always noticed that Landon was practicing Q runs at the upcoming Sprint Cup track.
I'm not too concerned with asphalt stuff on rfactor, if I wanna race asphalt, I'll run iRacing. I am definitely interested in running dirt though, I'll have to take a closer look at rfactor now.
Just a shame they're using NASCAR Heat for it, Tommy. :'(
I guess it depends how serious a gamer you are...I really don't care what program gets used...
They are looking into going to a different platform at some point though. It's kind of a niche thing and there isn't a huge community of programmers working on it...kinda like real-life Supermodifieds actually.
