Nice article, it's fairly amazing they actually named the sim, since most of the time they talk around it in these sorts of pieces. Granted, everyone already knew what the pros were driving anyway. :)

Yep, absolutely stone cold dead. Two excellent new mods in the past couple weeks. Yup, dead as a doornail.

Coming from the #1 papy ass kisser (soon to be #1 iRacing ass kisser), I'll take that as a compliment. Sorry the cars were so tough for you to handle...... -- David G Fisher

And on a related note, saw this on last night's game. For you non-hockey fans, the guy is Marian Gaborik, an incredible player for the NHL Minnesota Wild. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yiuqY53e0o

My favorite sims:: GTR2 - ISI engine, Blimey! developed GTL - same as above RBR - Warthog See, the fact is, I'll race anything that's good, regardless of who developed it. But if you'd like to continue believing otherwise for whatever reason, that's ok too. I've purchased 7 sims developed entirely by ISI plus another 6 using their engine because I'm a giant Kaemmer-worshipping Papy-loving Iracing-asskissing fanboy. Christ, I could see saying that shit if I were one of those assholes who doesn't give anything a fair shake, but I've even admitted there are mods for your beloved rFactor that are pretty badass. No oval mods, and you have to wade through tons of bullshit to find the ones that are decent, but they're out there.

Don't care what sims you own (I own plenty too). I've read you're postings. -- David G Fisher

LOL You are the one who, completely unprovoked, started hurling insults around. Review the thread. -- David G Fisher
