Welp, if you didn't get a wheel yet, you can get a brand new G29 now for under $300, barely. I guess Amazon dropped the price. I don't know how long it will last.

Shock can't drive with a wheel or from in-car. Do you have to use a wheel?

Shock is going to be in trouble then LOL. I know some people who drive with a console controller and do pretty well at it. I don't recommend it. A wheel is going to work a lot better for you.

You do have to drive in-car. There is no choice on the driver's view because they stress realism and simulation. In the previews I've seen so far there are no mirrors which I like. iRacing has its own native automated spotters and in-game voice chat. You can also have your own spotter so I don't know if that will be disabled for dirt racing or not.

Maybe Shock can pay your iRacing subscription and get you to spot for him.

I've always used a wheel (MOMO) and in-car view. I won't need a spotter because I will suck so bad. Maybe one just to tell me leaders are coming around to lap me but hopefully they'll have the blue flag in the game.

No blue flag but there is a black box on the lower right corner of the screen. Hit F3 and you can see a list of the cars around you. The guys in red are about to lap you. You're about to lap the guys in blue. You won't suck if you try it for a while you get fast.

I know a guy that's using a MOMO right now. In fact he has two of them.

There are guys over on iRacing now that ran DTR2 for a long time. Impact is active and there's another guy who I think runs Indy cars now. I can't recall his name or nick on DTR2. He ran in one of my leagues for a while. When I first started, ICE sent me his whole setups folder and it helped a lot. I have help files and short track car setups on my site and I'll help anybody coming from over here if they want to get started when dirt comes out or any time. Come in my Discord server if you need help. I'm usually in there in the afternoons and evenings. There are lots of tips and tricks with the interface, the settings, and the iRacing website that I'd be glad to try to help anybody with. Ancient history, but when I was in EVR we always tried to help people new to DTR and DTR2 because that was our thing. I still like helping people out on iRacing and I welcome it.

Volusia Speedway has been added to the list of tracks and a new video was just posted a few minutes ago.

March 29 is the latest word.

If you are an existing member , will they give you the basic dirt package foe free? I am not a member yet, wondering if I should just wait for the dirt release.

No you might as well wait. I think you'll get a couple of dirt cars and a dirt track free when you sign up whether it's now or later, plus a bunch of asphalt stuff.

Also, when you join you can go over to osracing.net and scroll down an look over in the left sidebar. You will see an iRacing Promo Code over there. Right now the promotion is 40% off for new members and I'm pretty sure that's still a good code. That is NOT an affiliate link. iRacing does not have an affiliate program. However, if you put my email address in as the referral at checkout, I think iRacing will give me 5 "iRacing dollars." iRacing dollars can't be shared directly, but I'd be willing to purchase a couple of iRacing dollars for you and share the wealth. :lol: I won't put my email address out here in the open because I don't care for spam, but it's jeff at the same domain as my website (osracing.net).

There is a ton of little things that you learn over time as you get started on iRacing, from wheel configuration to turning off that race-ending 2 minute fuel fill to finding stuff on their website. Anybody that needs any help, join my Discord linked in my signature. Voice or text chat is good with me.

Here's the latest dirt video from iRacing featuring Christopher Bell on the 410 Sprint Car.

iRacing's Tony Gardner posted a major iRacing dirt update today. To summarize: Dirt content will be available for presale Monday. The dirt build will roll out on Wednesday the 29th. If you buy the content before Wednesday, you can run test sessions offline with the content while iRacing is down and deploying the build which will take several hours. Personally, I'm getting it all Monday to get that head start on learning these cars. There are 2 free cars and one free track. Read it all here:
