    I watched the IMSA race (Sebring) on Saturday, the Nascar race (Homestead-Miami) on Sunday, and then caught up on the F1 race (Bahrain) on Monday (happened Sunday). IMSA and Nascar were iRacing, F1 was F1 2019 I believe. I'll be honest the iRacing one seemed much more realistic. Not sure if it is because of the sim/platform or the quality of drivers on it, but just seemed better. If I had to rank them IMSA > Nascar > F1.

    Either way, cool to watch with nothing else much on.

    Cause f1 2019 is an arcade game, iracing is a sim.

    I trolled the market places looking for decent deals. Most with shipping wouldn’t be much less than just buying new.

    I'm sure they had a budget. A large one.

    Well, it all depends on everyone's definition of "proper." :D

    This is probably the worst time to find deals. All the publicity and people with free time

    Every time I post something about sim racing on the IMSA FB page, there are always those who talk shit about it.
    Many comments during the Sebring broadcast had people asking how to get into it.
    Some genius's were saying you can get into it for $500 and don't need pedals & a wheel .
    Those are the people I'm most worried about. I have not done an official race in two week.
    Curious to see how many have jumped into the C & D class races.

    I know some are playing and most are not. But there are a couple dirt late model series that are paying big cash. Next week is a 4000 cash to win dirt race. So far this year he has won about 7000 bucks total.

    I'm going to build me a pc very very soon.

    We're making progress over here. I have everything assembled and I'm downloading windows and the updated BIOS for the motherboard. Hopefully have a running computer by tonight.

    Ya I see I forgot to put my cousins son.

    Sorry about that. And ya they show the napcar stuff not the dirt stuff.

    Everytime they do the live broadcast on twitch, Facebook and YouTube I always share the link on my FB. It's actually enjoyable to watch. They also have a couple live announcers.

    If you watched today's race {I have not finished watching it} It was pretty entertaining.
