iRacing Trucks - Week 4 Daytona- Racing Recap and Points Breakdown

This is my recap from week 4 in the iRacing NASCAR trucks fixed series.  In this episode I work with iRacing pro Andrew Fayash on the secrets of speed that lay within Daytona.  We work on the outright speed that is required to get a good qualifying run in.  From there we move on to some of the tricks or skills required in pack racing that you would find at Daytona.  After a long practice session, and a good qualify run. it is time to get down to business and do some racing.



We recap the 5 races of the week and then break down the points to see how we did for the week, towards our season long goal.

I would like to thank Andrew Fayash III for all of his help in preparing for this weeks track.  You can check out his you tube channel where he has cool videos from both iRacing and real life dirt track racing that he does:

Hi Shaun,

the thing with the SR-boost is actually pretty easy. When you cross an X.00 threshhold the system doesn't multiply your gain/loss with some arbitrary factor but simply adds an +/- 0.4 SR.

So if you have a SR of 4.03 and you loose 0.04 SR points the system will take 0.44 points and you're at 3.59 instead of 3.99. I think this was implemented so people going from one license to another have a bit of a buffer and go clearly to the next level i.e. after fasttracking.

Hey Shaun:

I was hoping to participate in the next race and on Simracing System it says it's at Fuji. Which version of Fuji should I download.

Thanks!

Sean,
I am all signed up and ready to race in the Carrera Cup, except for one thing.  How do I obtain Road America?  I do not have it in AC as one of my tracks.  Where is it?

Great review, you've convinced me to buy one of these for my rigsmile

One question, do you think the mounting brackets could be inverted (and swapped left to right) to mount it from the top?
