    So realistic it's almost a professional tool more than a game. Still the best realistic racing experience out there.

    iRacing is one of the best racing games you can experience online: deep like no one else and full of contents, it will make every pro driver happy. It's not for anyone but it's still worth a try.

    An impressive game, but not one that will be to everyone's tastes, especially not those after a quick thrill. [Sept 2010, p.88]

    iRacing is a very tough simulation and can only be recommended to gamers immune to frustration. Only real motoring fans should pay a monthly fee and even more for additional packs. The graphics give the impression of an unfinished beta, but at least the atmosphere between the players is always friendly.

    By far, the best racing simulator I've ever "played". Not only the physics, car response and tracks are brilliantly simulated, but everythingBy far, the best racing simulator I've ever "played". Not only the physics, car response and tracks are brilliantly simulated, but everything that involves competition (points system, race splitting, safety rating...) really works, and make you feel close to real live racing.

    It costs quite a lot of money (note I'm not saying expensive) but it is worth it. They are improving it all the time, and all those laser scanned car&tracks, and physics must be payed somehow. They are trying to make money as any other company, of course, but I feel part of my money is used to make the thing get better. Anyway, a lower subscription fee would be great.

    There are some good promotions for new people, and if you like racing, you should definitely give it a chance.    … Expand

    Average Sim at an extremely overpriced price. All in all, iracing is fine. I have the free content and other cars with accoun from a buddy.Average Sim at an extremely overpriced price. All in all, iracing is fine. I have the free content and other cars with accoun from a buddy. For me the conclusion remains:
    - Graphics: Mediocre to outdated.
    - Physics: All right. Accident physics immensely unrealistic. Cars sometimes fly 10m high.
    - Sound: Mediocre.
    - Multiplayer: Good. Matchmaking is good. Netcode could be better. Cars sometimes disappear when other drivers have a bad ping.
    - Reputation: Extremely exaggerated. There are many equally good or even better alternatives. You surely know the alternatives. ACC, rF2, AC, AMS, AMS2, ... (definitely a matter of taste - but iracing is definitely not a non-plus-ultra anymore)
    - Price: The price borders on audacity. Can you even take it seriously? This is why I rated it so badly. It's just an average sim that's being marketed way better than it is.    … Expand
