If you have no choice at all, what happens if it is not to your
liking? It may be the most superbly prepared meal in history of
cooking, but if you don't like it, then how good is it really, to you?
For example, if the most exacting physics model for drag racing on a
PC was released as a mod for rF and its performance was documented as
99% accurate by verifiable sources, I still wouldn't give it the time
of day as I find drag racing an amazing bore. However, if presented
with an 85% accurate mod of stock cars, I would download and try it
without reservation.
Choice is good.

As we know Multiplayer is diluted to the extent that pick up racing is
pretty much impossible. Whilst many leagues are successfully running
with rFactor, many have to deal with updates mid season and drivers
running in multiple leagues with varying versions and multiple installs
to avoid mismatches.
Offline the never ending stream of mods and update to mods mean that by
the time you have get to grips with a setup for the latest best ever
physics there is another version, or a new FFB setting or plug in.
This generates its own e***ment with new material to drive on an
almost daily basis.
However, some yearn for the days of more stability which mimics reality
where a driver sticks with a car for at least a season and improves and
gets to know it it intimately.
Those who put the mileage in with GPL will understand this.
As usual there is no right answer, however, those looking for a return
to quality pick up racing as we often had in VROC/GPL before it got
fragmented by zillions of add on tracks will be watching what happens
with iRacing very closely and that maybe less is more...

Easy solution: don't jump between mods every hour. You could even have
only one mod installed and pretend, there are no others!!! ;)
Oh, I have lots of milage with rF SCCS. And the thought of 20 other mods
I COULD be driving instead doesn't drive me nuts... =8^O
