    Its here and its the coolest thing Iracing has ever done. the cars are amazing. the live track changes are unlike anything I have ever seen in a sim. IRacing has set the mark with this. I urge all with access to not hesitate. it is so cool.

    I tried the Beetle Off road car a couple days ago. It was pretty fun.

    Looks like no o nes posted for a while, has anyone tried a 6dof on iracing sprint cars?
    Im struggling to find the limit of traction as the tracks go slick with the 410 cars, i was wondering if building a 6dof brushless rig might make it something i can relate to (i ran a 600hp sprint car pre covid 19 lol)

    Yes ive run it on the 6dof. The 6 dof helps with the traction loss but not to much with the feel of the grip. Visual is probably the best way to find grip. The 410s usually end up rim riding the cushion as the track dries. I suspect they will adjust the speed of track usage next build as it changes pretty fast these days.

    Thank you for the response, glad to know that before i spend $3000+ building a 6dof, although i will build one eventually, i guess i need to run a heap more laps on the rim of the wall! Or ill just stick to stock cars & 305s, thats always fun :)
    I think the track follows what real tracks do when you have 40+ sprint cars, however it goes away quickly when theres only 10 or so.

    If you are up and running check out the IRX Cars. They are great with motion and have good participation so its easy to find a quick race.
