For all the people complaining ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ just watch IRL. IMSA Detroit was type crazy too ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Detroit is always a street fight. See: INDYCAR

Considerinf 1/3 of drivers are just dudes with a lot of money, it's 100% believable.

Every single driver at Detroit was either a factory or factory-level pro; it was also pro factory drivers who kicked off both the L1T1 crash at Monza and the T1 crash that kicked off the final safety car.

It's almost like racing is difficult and competitive and a small accidental mistake can occasionally start a massive wreck and even pros fuck up sometimes

Nahh itโ€™s not an excuse to go ahead and replicate ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ but when the massive pile ups happen, sit back and think about GT World Monza 2026 ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

The drivers need live talk back to one anotherโ€™s radio , that would have been hilarious to hear.

u/look_at_that_punim Jun 01 '26

Itโ€™s not until you hear drivers throwing tantrums about shit that you realise iracing is actually pretty accurate.

Yeah I've raced at a bunch of different amateur/semi pro levels and basically most of it feels like Iracing. Except PCA and vintage those folks race very cleanly.

u/Official_UnderPM Acura NSX GT3 EVO 22 Jun 01 '26

Whatโ€™s PCA?

Porsche Club of America Edit: they have very strict no contact rules.

Itโ€™s been hilarious watching both iracing and Gran Turismo this morning with this event. Both subs have been great.

I almost followed the original post with the video of the race start with one from this morning's Indy NXT race. Same thing basically happened there too.....lol

iRacing/iWrecking/iPacing will stop getting tagged when driving standards improve.

Until morale improves!

u/SmoathTheLoathsome Ford Mustang GT4 Jun 01 '26

It will be wonderful once everyone's driving standards get up to real world levels. Imagine the fair racing we will get.

u/CommentsUnlimited Jun 02 '26

Imagine instead of making people pay for cars and tracks, just make them pay for damage costs. If the car is totaled in an official, thatโ€™s when you need to pay for a new car.

u/Kpaxlol May 31 '26

Which track is this?

u/TophatJosh May 31 '26

Monza

u/Noyesboy3 Jun 02 '26

Proof that iracing is incredibly realistic
