iRacing Initial Impressions?

Did they used to be around during DTR2? They sound familiar. Guy named Roadrunner.

Not sure about that. Id say its probably the biggest dirt league they have right now wish I made more money and could put the time and money into it just not doable for me.

Just seen on the site CNB that they have a DTR2 points standings so you may be right.

Yep, that’s them. Them and EVR were the good ones at DTR2.

DTR2.....that brings back some memories. I was a sophomore in high school and broke my right arm playing basketball, and I'm right handed. I somehow mastered playing that game with with keyboard arrows, and only using my left hand. It must've done something for me, cuz I won 2 years back to back at Eldora race simulators. Now in the words of Randy Quaid, I look like a monkey fookin a football when I try it.

Yep, that is the same Team VLR. They've been around since 2004 but just switched from dtr2 to iRacing this year actually when dirt came out.

By far the biggest and most competitive dirt league in iRacing, and probably asphalt as well. Way more cars than any other series and way more people watching their races than any other series including the NASCAR Peak Antifreeze series which is crazy.

Tonight they're racing at the new Knoxville that came out last night in sprints so who knows it might go over 100 cars :O with everyone wanting to race the new track. There are guys who struggle to finish in the top 50 at VLR and go to other tough series and win easily. Racing with them it's like racing against Lucas Oil competition on steroids if you compared it to real life.

iracing handles so different from dtr2 but I'm surprised how many people from dtr2 have picked it up so well

They also have invaluable information on what changes do to the different cars to help you learn to build your own. Example loose in do this,this,this etc.

The Chili Bowl is being added to Iracing along with Midgets. Iracing is sponsoring Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell at the Chili Bowl. I wonder how much Iracing spends on this advertising, real curious about the Lanigan deal.

Hopefully team VLR series races chilli bowl. Watched there whole series and those guys are top notch. Would be amazing to see them on that track.

I'm sure they'll do a Chili Bowl race at some point. They also are supposed to do a huge sprint car series I think here maybe in the summer time. The old SPR guys in rFactor hosted an annual chili bowl as well
