It might, except that in one case we're talking about $150 bucks a year and in another, $20. So that the unfamilar sound of it totals $120. And let us remember, iRacing wasn't the first to do this online thing, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Still, I have little interest in this rFactor thing. It sounds half-baked, as if a child saw a man doing somersaults in the street, and decided, on a whim, to do the same. Alan

For now all I have to do is install a plugin and keep racing as usual, both online and offline. And unless I want advanced options it won't cost me a thing. It will be interesting to see how popular it is and where it goes. Larry wrote:

All well and good if you're willing to put up with software that's half-assed in every way, has the worst netcode since forever, and has about 2 actually acceptable car types. Ten bucks a month is a very low price to pay for somehting where you can really race something that's remotely realistic :) I hope the people who cough up the $20 have fun with that ISI "simulator". -- Scott Moore Western Dirt Racing Association http://www.wdra.net > > And let us remember, iRacing wasn't the first to do this online thing, and > I'm sure it won't be the last. > > Still, I have little interest in this rFactor thing.

Congrats! It's just amazing how much crap you can say in two short paragraphs. At least your favorite series knows how to behave: "No derogatory or distasteful statements on any racecar or hauler permitted at any WDRA racetrack No driver or pit crew member shall subject any WDRA promoter or official to threats, abusive or improper language at any time." So, in return: Keep diggin' in the dirt, redneck!
