    Say it ain't so!! LOL! A hundred years ago (ok, early 2000s), people used to love to rag on me for sim racing here in Lake RASN, now all the guys do it? They even train using it? OMG!!! LOL What started with Papyrus NASCAR Racing '99, and later NR 2003,
    and later morphed into iRacing has now become what we do when a virus has us scared out of our whits.

    Who'da thunk it?

    Yeah -- I rememeber there was controversy when Scott Speed actually got banned from the circuit for racing dirty in iRacing or one of the online leagues.

    When you look at some of the really high end stuff they have, now,
    it has gone bonkers compared to a Thrustmaster wheel, and Papyrus first sim.

    I remember doing DTR online with some guys on RASN until wee hours!!
