New season, new car, new paint, rusty admin needs to post some pics before I forget how.   The sidepods have a tricky piece (of four), I am overjoyed that I managed to size and align the stripes almost perfectly.  |

Nice livery. Did they change something on the skippy? I haven't driven it yet. I do enjoy the new 1600.

I only recently tried and bought it, just how things played out, not due to any changes that I am aware of. TestDrive sold me on it, unsure whether I would have bought it without driving it. Imagine a 100 yard slide at full opposite lock that was savable or maybe rF1 Historic without the "ghost slides". My gut feeling is that people racing the Skippy tend to be serious about racing cleanly.
I like the FF1600 but even top split Week 13 was messy races so the 15 minute Rookie series for it has zero appeal and the D (I think) license series has 8 or 9 tracks that I don't have while I have every track except 1 or 2 for Skip Barber.

The skippy is fun. Didn't realize it wasn't included in the base package. I've had it for a long time & I was sure you had it Tom. Oh well. The craziest car on the service is the Lotus 49. Now that's a beast. Twitchy as all hell.

I'll look for the Lotus 49 the next time that TestDrive is up.
Getting comfortable with the Cobra 289 in rF1 Historic GT & Touring cars was my sim racing breakthrough so I actually like twitchy. I also weirdly am not by motorcycle headshake, at least not on dirt or on a track so there is probably something wrong with me; well certainly many things lol.
I'm stunned that so few of the ESR core group have embraced iRacing, especially the lower powered and slidey cars.
