Have we become so obsessed with iRating, Safety Rating and results that we've forgotten why we started sim racing in the first place?

In Season 5 Episode 5 of The Lone Road iRacing Podcast, Guy asks a simple question: if iRating disappeared tomorrow, would you race differently?

We look at iRacing's Track Day concept, mixed-class racing and the return of legacy cars as a possible way to put FUN back at the centre of sim racing.

🏁 Also in this week's PULSE:

• iRacing Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta
• Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH in endurance competition
• GT3 Regional Tours
• Track Day and legacy iRacing content
• SimRacing Expo Charlotte and what it tells us about the growth of sim racing
• Looking ahead to Sim Global Expo at the NEC Birmingham in January 2027

And in iRacing Agony Uncle, Steve races exclusively in VR and has switched OFF the virtual mirror for greater realism.

There's just one problem...

Sometimes he doesn't see the car alongside him.

So where should we draw the line between immersion, realism and situational awareness?
