    Silver Crown looks fun.

    Have they fixed the issues they were having with it?

    And it looked like you were dealing with a really loose car man, good job keeping it from spinning.

      i dont know if they have fixed the 1.5 mile tracks with it.

      The cars was ok, loose if i got on it too hard, but later on in the run it was tight, had to use up so much brake just to get it to turn and then steer it with the throttle.

        April 25,2009 - Volkswagen of America and iRacing Announce Internet-Racing Path to Real-World Pro Series: iRacers To Qualify for Jetta TDI Cup Driver Selections
        Since before the service opened to the public last year, professional and amateur real-world racing drivers, including last year’s Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup champion, Josh Hurley, have been using iRacing.com’s motorsport simulation service to learn new tracks and get up to speed before testing sessions or races. Today, a partnership between Volkswagen of America and iRacing has been announced, which will see an iRacing-organized internet racing series serve as a portal to the real-world Jetta TDI Cup series.

        iRacing’s virtual Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup series will kick off during 2009 Season 3. The online series will be open to all members with a Rookie 4.0 or higher competition license and will feature the Jetta TDI Cup car (which is currently under development) as well as several of the tracks from the real-world TDI Cup schedule.

        At the conclusion of Season 3, the top ranked driver in the series meeting Jetta TDI Cup entrance requirements (between the ages of 16-26 and a resident of the United States, Canada or Mexico) will earn a spot among 100 aspiring professional racers invited by Volkswagen of America to compete in the Driver Selection event for the real-world 2010 Jetta TDI Cup series. From those 100, 30 series entrants and five alternates will be selected. Should the virtual Jetta TDI Cup qualifier be among them, he or she will enjoy a FULLY FUNDED season behind the wheel of the iRacing.com-liveried Jetta TDI Cup entry.

        Next year, iRacing becomes even more central to the Jetta TDI Cup driver selection process. The virtual Jetta TDI Cup series for 2009 Season 4 and 2010 Seasons 1 – 3 will be the primary gateway to the Driver Selections event. Top-ranked iRacers from all four seasons will receive invitations to attempt to qualify for the real-world series’ 2011 season and compete for the $100,000 champion’s prize.

                I might be coming back soon. I have some people who are pretty much willing to buy me anything for graduation. So I'm going to see if they will get me a gaming computer. Which means I will get to play this awesome game again.

                  Sorry for the double post

                  I didn't know they had mixed class racing, that's completely awesome.

                              Can't wait till I get in that car.

                              Random question- are you running a top of the line type machine? I ask because I can't run shadows anymore (I was able to before) or else it'll lock the game up.

                              The tech person offered no real insight as to why I could get it before and not now. She just said most machines cant run with shadows on- thats fine but I was capable of running them.

                                That's pretty strange. Is it a hard lock-up where you have to reset, or can you ctrl-alt-del out of it?
