RD iRacing Road Series

[William Nowell]

Simple question, Would you participate if race department started a MX-5 series? I think back to how much fun I had in the mini races on race on. I think the MX-5 is just as if not more fun. I know it is a rookie car, raced on only 2 tracks but with a wider selection of tracks and some good drivers that race department has, I think this would be a lot of fun. So vote maybe we can persuade the powers to be to act on this before some other site does.

Hate Road At in the Star Mazda, F1, Ford V8 etc beacuse it´s such a hard track for me. It seems like the curbs want to take your life. Atleast they try to

But, in the Mazda i think we will have some serious fun!, i haven´t signed up yet since i don´t know just yet but i´m quite sure i can take part.

Oke might be me but whats up with the gearbox of that mazda?
I thought this might be fun but i cant drive that box without auto clutch or something, feels really off to me not even hour car at home does this.
Might need to check my controller?

I can shift the Mazda like any real car I have driven, tbf I find it much easier than that..

Road Atlanta is one of my favs on iRacing. Mostly raced here with the Star Mazda and the MX-5 when the car was first released. The track is great with its fast flowing corners. I do agree with you Hampus that alot of the curbs are brutal but the one corner that is always tough for me in the Star Mazda to be consistent is the left hander after T1 and the S-turns. Catch that one wrong with too much curb and you'll be sliding towards those walls. But with the MX-5 think that it'll be a blast just need to get good acceleration and momentum out of the corners and especially for the long straight. Easier said than done.

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Yea the Mazda has a way of producing some of the best racing, no matter the track so i´m looking forward to this for sure

Got a good straight too so there will be some nice drafting there

 

[George Pilkington]

I have started to see what it takes to make custom skins for iracing. Once I get a bit more into it I might be able to make custom RD skins for everyone. I'll let you know how it goes.

 

[Don Davis]

[Will Marquez]

Niiiice one Don!

 

[Don Davis]

I'll be out of town for the first race. Will all the races count for overall points, or will we have a drop race?

 

[Will Marquez]

Good question Don. Everyone will have one dropped race which will determine your overall points at the end of the season.

 

[Flavien Vidal]

Nice!
I thought we had to complete all 6 races... Since I don't have brands hatch and can't buy it for now
It's good news!
