I'm just wondered why we couln't burn our rear tires on ICR 1 or 2.

When you see how much we could burn them in NFS for example
how could you explain the fact that the more powerfull racing cars
couln't, on simulation, because in true life pilot burn them a lot.

TIA,
Vince.

Yes, this was a fundamental missing element that I noticed.  As ICR II
is supposedly a true simulator (and in every way looks the part), I
can only assume Indycars don't have a clutch or neutral gear.  Oh to
be able to build up to 12,000 RPM with the clutch in, shift in to
first and just dump it.  I imagine that would be pretty exciting to
watch.  Maybe more importantly, if you spin the car, you need some
kind of mechanism for dis-engaging drive so that you can perform a
nice neat spin turn.
