Settings used for the 4090: ibb.co/dgkRFvc
Settings used for the 4060: ibb.co/bmP5kr3
I have a 7800x3D and 4090 and using triple 1440's. Monitors are 165 hz. In dry I run vsync and I am pretty much locked in at 165 hz using all high settings and foliage low and I have very smooth performance. When I jumped into a rain session my FPS immediately dropped to 80-90 range while moving and would jump back up to the 120-140 range in certain parts of tracks and I would experience some stuttering. I disabled vsync and tested again and that got rid of the stuttering, but I was still having fluctuating FPS. I then tried locking FPS with the in-game limiter. I started at 90 fps and when I tested I never had any drop in frame rate or stuttering. I then started working the FPS limiter up by 10 FPS at a time, and I was able to get all the way to 150 fps, completely solid, locked in during a heavy rain solo test session. I then jumped into an AI session with heavy rain and 30 cars at Road America. I the start I was seeing 90-100 FPS, but once the field spread out, I was back to 150 FPS, solid. Not sure if there is some sort of bug in the rain build, but it seems that locking the refresh rate with the in-game limiter provides much better and more consistent performance. Might be worth testing to see if you have the same results Dan.
4060 Replay settings?
same settings in replay and graphics for benchmarking.@@ferrari-glenn9949
4080 ?
That 4x MSAA is probably hurting your perf quite a bit. You could probably get away with everything on high if you lowered it to 2x msaa (at least on the 4090 system)
i feel like tail lights and headlights should be lighting up that spray too
that is a very good point! And its crucial when driving in the rain.... How could they missed that
They didn’t miss that, they are working on it and have said it’s not as simple as turning up the brightness
@@fan2hd277Look now 😅👍
This format is perfect. I appreciate all the hard work that goes into the edited videos -and they're good too - but I've always enjoyed the unscripted stuff because it feels like I'm in the room with you.
Thanks for getting the information out there!
Like the format. Not everything needs to be super edited. Great video.
Excellent video Dan. Thanks for taking the time to do the testing and posting the results.
I yesterday compared the rain to real life and i agree with everything you said. It seems like there are to few stages especially with the spray, there's also too much spray at low speed. The water on the windshield needs to be massivly increased, especially if you're in the spray. The rain light is a huge problem, i hope they will fix this fast and first.
The drying line is too hard to see, especially with the combination of the missing spray stages, it should be more noticeable. In my opinion its still really good and the best rain we ever had in a sim, besides the rain light not being visible enough, that should be their number 1 priority right now.
@noduj Look now…. close to perfect 😎
@@bmwM3M5M6 Much better now, probably the best they can do with the current engine.
Dan, I like this format. Very informative video. Thanks for putting this together.
Iracing needs to upgrade its game engine to DX12 to start utilizing the full performance of multithreading CPUs
Turning on SSR improves reflections, but have you ever noticed how reflections from puddles and surfaces are full of grain/noise? This leaves me frustrated, in addition to the high FPS consumption, we end up with a Grainy/Noise image.
P.S: Take a look at the Official Video Of Iracing doing a Lap Around the Autodromo do Algarve and notice the amount of noise in the reflections, sometimes the shadows even flicker
I mean, they can have the option but for anyone that doesn’t have a god-tier PC will take a huge performance hit.
@@DrDinoNuggies I'm using 4090 with 7800X3D in 4K resolution, I'm not complaining about the FPS consumption but rather the SSR failures, watch the video I mentioned and you'll easily understand what I'm talking about
@@DrDinoNuggies SSR in a DX11 based game engine where it is really CPU dependent will always be the result, we need DX12 to take advantage of MultiThread CPU's
We are paying for a subscription, we should always have the latest technology
I know that Iracing's focus is not on the visuals, but it's supposed to be a simulation, so we should try to focus a little on the visuals
Excellent criticisms. I’m loving the rain and for a 1.0 it’s great. Excited to se show they develop it as it goes along.
I was definitely impressed by the sounds. When you combine that with the feel of passing through a puddle, good stuff. When people wait this long for something they will pick it apart. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.
The sound is impressive. I have a EPOS GSX 1000 sound card and I use the 7.1 virtual surround setting, and it almost fooled my brain into thinking I could hear water splashing under the car as I drove through puddles.
@@vt6020I hear this also from a Logitech headset….Sorry misread your reply. Thought you had an EXTERNAL SOUND SYSTEM, my bad my man
Great video. Love this type of feedback. More of these please.
Nice vid thanks for the benchmarks
Great video, thanks Dan!
I really enjoyed this style of video, although happy with the other ones too. Depends what you are presenting I guess, but this sort of quick initial impressions type video the conversational style is good. The rain in iRacing is utterly amazing, so immersive and interesting to drive. Yes it's not 100% perfect and I didn't even notice the raindrop thing on the windsheild until you mention it cause the spray is so "blinding" it doesn't matter, but it would be good for added immersion if they could do this extra build up on the windsheild cause like you say the wipers are basically visual only and not moving any real water.
Video was excellent. Love the commentary.
Great format 👍😊
this actually is helpful, so many videos i watched say they barely had a FPS drop , i play iracing in VR with a 4090, have my quest 3 on link with max resolution allowed by oculus , and almost all iracing settings max, i would hold a damn near rock solid 120, i booted up a race out rain to max, and was dipping way more then i was expecting for all the vids saying it didnt hit FPS much i was hit with way more of a drop then i was expecting
Great Video, much appreciated. Putting more effort into what you´re exactly showing and telling instead of the editing is great! And thanks for not putting any annoying permanent backround music in your video!
Deine Videos werden immer professioneller. Sehr cool, danke dafür!
Any Dan Suzuki content is good content.. regardless of weather! Youre epic by Default ;)
I agree with everything. Visibility is too good without wipers, but that could also be the tradeoff to prevent an "esport setting". Yes to rain light. And yes, I also agree with the poor visuals of drying wet conditions. The track looks dry, but there is a little bit of spray. I switched back to slicks too early and had a hard time for while.
I too feel the rain spots are lacking a little on the windscreen. However if you’ve ever had a hydrophobic coating applied to a windscreen you’ll know that at a decent speed you don’t need to use wipers at all. I assume race teams would use this IRL and not just car detailers 🤔😂
The format is great Dan even though I'm also one of those guys who prefers the shinier look of a wider aperture and all that stuff related to cameras, lighting and bla bla...anyways. First and foremost: THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the great and informative video and all the time you've put in for all of us mate! The format, as I've said, is great but it would be a tad better if the main camera would be a little higher and maybe slightly more angled towards you so we can all appreciate your pretty smile a lot more :D
That being said, thanks again for what you're doing, i love your content. Greetz from Berlin :)
Nice video Dan, they have to integral the rain lights in the back
Thank you Dan , this way its fine , it is more important to be timely rather edited
I’m liking this type of video by you. I’ve previously enjoyed just hearing you chat about your experience with sims and hardware, and I do prefer the more conversational style. You’re quite good at it.
Thanks 😊
Nice Vid! I think in RL, the spray is even worse, because the spray keeps hanging in the air if there are a lot of cars running together, which creates a really intense "fog"!
When you turn SSR off it reverts back to baked in cube maps for reflections
Thank you for showing a 4060 with triple 1080p with an AMD X3d prcessor, I have a 5800 (still driving that AM4 to the final finish line). It is really helpful as there are not that many benchmarks for the 4060 for driving sims.
Great video.
I feel like they knew the spray and lights were an issue so they kept the distortion from the rain on the windshield to a minimum. You are right it's not really realistic but you really cant make it realistic until the lights works better at least.
A good format Dan, easy to watch, mainly due to the fact you just have content that is relevant and don't rant on with long lead ups and telling us what you are going to tell us :) I'm finding a decent hit with VR and have to compromise my settings once again, even on a 7800X3D with a 3080, I feel it is time for the iRacing engine to get a rebirth.
Dan, the setting that turns off the raindrops on the windshield is not intended to work that way. You should not be able to turn off the rain on the windshield under any settings. There was a post on the iRacing forums where a Staff member (Michael Hinkle, I believe) stated it is not supposed to work that way and they will work on correcting it. 👍🙂
Hey Dan great video as always. Just wondering if changing the temperature and wind will make the rain more varied.
Agree with you Dan,i think in a leauge with good drivers the rain would be a blast!! But public servers on the other hand😮
Awesome video Dan, appreciate it.🦾
I manually set the VRAM in the ini file at his max (-20%) and had a good gain.
Thanks for this video.
The performance difference between wet and dry races are more significant than other CZcamsrs have suggested with their less extensive testing.
Think I'll be purchasing a new RyzenZen 5 cpu later in the year.
I don’t run iracing, but I have to say the rain looks great! Awesome video thanks!
I invite you to try, you’ll love it after 1 hour
Le stesse prove le ho fatte da subito come te... Meglio se lo "dici" tu che hai più voce di me 😉
Complimenti per i tuoi video e dirette !
Good fit!
I was little bit concerned about performance with VR, but it seems like it was not that big fps drop if you keep SSR off. It is very immersive and I love the sounds in rain like when you drive over puddle and stuff the sound is very well made in my opinion. I have only been driving for couple hours, but im impressed.
What VR setup do you have? I'm running a 7800X3D at the moment with a 3080 doing some testing of a new PC and in my Reverb i get solid 90FPS in the dry with 2800x2450 Res in OpenXR but as I enable rain I lose 20FPS, quite a decent hit
@@wayneshephardI lose like 10% fps, but thats nothing compared to other sims I have tried with rain. Others have been absolutly unplayble on my setup without tweaking settings all the time. I got quest 3 and rtx 3080 with 5800X. I didnt need to change anything to keep 90fps, but I have some settings low so I can supersample the picture. I dont need any fancy graphics, I want just clear picture without any blinking edges and pixels.
@GuppyMilk334 cheers for the info and replying, I have thought of moving to the Quest 3 as the support for Reverb is dwindling and I hear they are very good. I'll have a look into lowering my settings, I run 16 Aniso and 4AA so I might drop to 2AA I hear that is a good frame lifter
I’ve got a Reverb with a 5600x and 3070ti. I’m using OpenXR with pretty low settings, but I had to drop the Reverb to half rez to have a smooth experience. I’ll have to give it a try with SSR turned off, like Guppy said.
@vt6020 it's quite the dance to get it right but i played a lot today and I've got the OpenXR res to 2800x whatever the second figure came to.... and 16 anisotropic with 2x AA, no filter, 3 mirrors, no anti aliasing selected, hdr and sharpening on and it looks great and runs well, perhaps un heck hdr with your configuration and you'd be pretty right with a resolution around 2300 to 2400 as the first figure in the custom resolution option. I have a 5600X with a 3070 aswell, great combo
We need pit macros to choose which tyres are to be put on at the next pit stop (bit of an oversight) - iRacing are looking into it
Hey Dan, if we’re in a race and it’s starts dry and then starts
raining, how can we assign a button on our wheel to change to wet
tires when we pit? Haven’t been able to find this info anywhere and I
don’t see an option for this in the auto text chat
I think it's always so sad when you drive with these amazing physics and then people come into a stream and just say "it looks like shit, not playing", like yeah it doesn't look like Forza Horizon 5, but come on, this looks super realistic on high settings with 1440p or 4K, graphics really are no issue, especially inside of the car. The only things that are really ugly are trees and grass outside of the track, but during the race you have no time to look at that anyway.
The issue with the drying track is that somehow there is way too much spray while the track is entirely dry visually. In your example there is no dry line because 90% of the track is already dry. I did some AI races and they actually have a very clear distinction of a dry line forming, but somehow it's still causing spray and very little grip. In real life, as soon as there is a dry line slicks will instantly become optimum and wet tyres will completely overheat. In iRacing you have to somehow wait until 90% of the track is dry, where real wet tyres would have blown up already and spray would have disappeared 15 minutes ago.
Also, I agree the change we need for visibility are rain lights, not a reduction of spray. Some ACC drivers like Jardier argued the spray is too much, "you can't race closely", completely missing the point that you are not supposed to race closely during heavy rain. If you look at any real racing in heavy/moderate rain, the cars have to make a gap to get out of the spray. You are supposed to either leave a gap or switch lines to see. ACC drivers are really used to just follow 0.1 secs behind one another in a big long train, that's not how real wet racing is. I'm super happy iRacing finally gave sim racers a real rain implementation, it changes the dynamic of a race completely, it's about surviving and being brave while seeing close to nothing, it's not a long train like in the dry.
What I learned ... Simracers will always complain no matter what 😅
@@DanSuzuki 100% sad but true.
Plus, and this is important, we’re not even 3 days into the release. The awesome thing about iRacing is the amazing team that constantly works on improvements, and so we would expect the rain to get dialed in over time. For me, having something at launch of this quality is absolutely impressive. An achievement to be sure.
@@nickmathews6226 More players = fuller splits. Unless you are driving GT3, IMSA etc, many series are fighting for participation.
@@drchtctindeed tones of series are close or are already dead.
Hello Dan & thanks for the video.
Since I don't always have time to test all the configurations on Iracing, I have a question about the rain.
I have to put the graphics setting off SSR and shadow in low details to have at least 80fpf (3 screens x 1440),
I can't even see the water on my windshield,
Do you think that I am penalized on my chronometric times due to lack of visual details during the transitions from the sun track to rain and vice versa?
Thank you for your response 😀
Good day
I like this format a lot better than they heavily edited
Awesome Video Dan! Very informative. I think Iracing knocked this one out of the park. Yes they need to tweak a few things but its Great!
SSR does not change the water reflections anymore :) You can turn it off now. I have sent you best perf setting on mail.
Thanks
Thank you 😊
Rain hype lets goooo
Any changes to dry physics at all?
(sorry if I missed that in a video)
They have said they are working on the taillight brightness and it’s not as simple as just turning up the brightness.
It's a little bit of a blunder not including rain lights when you are implimenting rain...
Have you ever used a product called ‘Rainex’ on your road car windscreen? It’s like a polish. The water just beads off the screen and you don’t need to use your wipers at speed. All race teams prep their windscreen with stuff like this.
Yes, use it all the time 😊
I tried ssr on high at misano vs nord and notice that on misano its hard to spot the puddles where at nord its extremely noticeable. Could this be a new track thing ? anyone else notice this?
I like a good mix of video styles: I love the edited videos since they are more enjoyable to watch (especially for product reviews and stuff). However, the effort must be insane to do this for all videos. So that kind of "comfortable talking" videos is pretty cool as well. Basically what @dralanquan is saying ;)
i think the format fits the topic at hand, for something as game update such as this, its perfect, but for lets say cpu review more "official" highly edited fits better
Thanks Dan. What earplugs is that you are using?
Xenns Top - they are awesome!
Question, did you rerun the Graphics Configuration after the update? I did, then reset my triple screen settings, turned off the auto FPS and set max FPS to 163 (refresh is 165), and the lowest I saw in a full race at VIR was 100 FPS. At Nurburgring I was getting over 140. This is in line with what I was getting pre-update, so I really saw no FPS Loss. Something to consider doing if you did not.
Yes, did that :)
Helping out a buddy with a new build- from what i understand you would choose a AMD7800x3d over a 14700k? ( its for triples 1080p with a 4080s)
Absolutely!👍
I wish iracing runs Unreal for graphics, while keeping their physics and everything else the same. That would make graphics sooooo much better, while performance will stay top notch.
@DanSuzuki if you're on windows 10 and you disable e-cores you will get much better performance, i got about a 25% increase in cpu limited scenarios. My friend who was on w11 had much higher fps already and for him changing core affinity had no effect so it probably has something to do with the w10 task scheduler.
It's gonna be carnage in top split too 😅
Now iracing can go one step further and put in real world weather and lightning. So if for example if Monza is dark in real life then it's dark in the sim, if its raining its raining. Then the subscription may be worth not playing LMU or ACC!Not sure how the tyres would work though maybe put in race if it rains, or some good weather forecasting in game.
Maybe the day night thing would be hard because depending on where you are in the world you may be always driving some tracks at night but weather they could definitely do
The new weather system in iRacing has the option to use real time weather for the time and place anywhere in the world. It's up to the host/iRacing admins to decide which races are "realistic" and which will use some form of scripted weather events.
Dan thanks for this video all time top ... for you car in the rain Use RAIN X .. its not more necessary de whipers .. the same nin Iracing
Yes, I have rain X on my car - it’s awesome 😊
I think the fps are realy good
I have a shit PC but iracing still runs smoth
I don't understand why I haven't seen any races with rain since week 13.?
It’s murder in VR. I thought something was wrong with my machine. Heh. They need to provide separate settings for rain for all the settings, not just SSR. I go from maintaining the required 90 fps pretty much all the time in the dry with everything but cinemas maxed, to rain making me have to turn so many things down and use the OpenXR toolkit to enable foveated rendering to get 90 fps sometimes. This is with a 12900KS and 3080 Ti with an HP Reverb G2.
Hmm for me the performance hit in vr is not much more than 10% with rain(ssr off). With ssr on I got almost 50% performance hit and it’s unplayable if I don’t turn off almost all other eyecandy. (Pimax crystal, 12700k rtx 4090)
@@christiandoninger5951 I’ve since figured out that after my last reinstall I neglected to use the OpenXR tweak utility to turn down my resolution slightly, as I usually have it. After doing that I’ve no complaints about rain performance. It is slower in the rain for sure, but I can now compensate with some settings tweaks and it is fine.
SSR High cost so much FPS but kinda feels like mandatory in rain.
I disagree, I’ve been running on high end graphics with SSR off vs High, but all other graphics on high/ultra, and it’s barely a difference to me.. there’s still reflections everywhere and I can see all puddles just fine
@@TheDrSwank and what resolution are you using?
Is it possible that the GTP is broken on wet surface ? Yesterday at Sebring ALL LMP2s were faster that doesn’t make sense to me. It’s like driving on ice with the GTP but with LMP2 it’s drivable.
Braking in GTP wet is just gg
Idk if it's broken but it's so easy to die
I suspect the drop in performance will be significantly less for anyone who was mostly bottle necked by CPU performance, which in the case of iRacing, is most of the user base.
I think the switch to relying on the GPU, is a sign of the new talent the iRacing team brought in to help with graphics issues.
4:26 yup that’s what it’s like in real life, you can’t see shit, it used to terrify me.
Have you tested with HAGS off? Surprised to see you have it on.
Yes, it costs a few % of performance when you turn it off - at least on my systems.
Surprising! That sentiment is not widely reflected in most sim titles. I'll have to try it again on my PC. For the longest time it's caused issues pretty much everywhere (ACC, RF2, DCS, MSFS, etc) Will try! Thank you,@@DanSuzuki
turn HDR on even if you dont have an HDR Screen. The tailights are much more visible even with no rain.
To the windshield: yes, it looks very unrealistic and does not fit to the rest. But as this is an eSport game and a realistic windshield that reduces visibility mainly by lightrefraction might need a lot of calculations and so decrease FPS a lot. And turning such an effect off would be unfair. And the most important thing in Simracing are FPS and latency.
So i guess that iRacing didnt manage to optimize a good Windshieldeffect till now.
But I am really surprised how good all that Tempest System is right now.
Do you have a dule pc set up ?
yes!
Damn, seems like i've been chasing a ghost. i got a 4070 super today and paired it with my R7 5800x. first time i boot up the sim and set everything to high/ultra, and got like 160fps constant in the rain and since then been struggeling with FPS until i saw your Video and found out its pretty much the same. But how in the first place did i get so much fps? D: anyways, great format. Thanks for the good comparisons and helping me cool down my sanity xD
Single or triples ?
@@bmwM3M5M6 triples 1440p
@@TheIdelight Nice high fps you got there then wow !
Reduce some graphics settings, to get higher fps. High fps, with low latency, more important than looks, in simracing. I still don't understand, why a lot ppl playing maximum graphics...
Agree. I run high graphics mainly so that the stream looks as good as possible 😊
Using a 4070 ti super on a otherwise 4 year old build with 64gb ram. Maxed settings and pulling easy 140fps with rain.
which monitor/resolution?
What games are better than Iracing? I just got into racing a couple years ago
PUBG 😛
They should tone down the spray coming out the back, it doesn't add anything in terms of driving dynamics. It's only going to cause a backlash even if they add Rain lights as they'll need to reduce the density for it to be shown
Something weird going on on your end I'm afraid. I9 9900 + 2080S + G2 Reverb, stable 90fps at 100% resolution in a full race. The rain hardly affected performance and I read the same results from a lot of other people. Which REALLY surprised me, I was expecting a huge fps hit like rain in AC and AMS2 does.
Across 3 PCs? 😅 sometimes you need to actually do benchmarks and not just look at the fps counter - we had many reports of very similar drop of performance on my discord
@@DanSuzuki Without I just got 90fps, almost no overhead. With rain it stays at 90. If I get 90fps on my potato pc in vr then yes.. something very weird is going on on your end. You'll find a lot of posts on reddit and the iracing forum from people with the same experience - rain hardly affecting the fps at all. Maybe it's a specific issue with certain cpu's or gpu's but in general the rain hardly affects performance.
I agree on the rainlights, either those has to be fixed or they need to tone down the "milkyness" of the spray, maybe lower the opacity a bit so you get atleast a chance of spotting other cars, on single monitor with low FOV you can't follow anyone cuz you can't even get references from the side of the track....
VR: pimax crystal(3000x3550)+5600x(3ms)+rtx4070super(7ms) 120fps stable dry, zero gain with 5800x3d. Now I am scared to try with rain.
a 4070s for the crystal is a bottleneck. I have a 12900K with RTX4090 and run at full resolution iracing with 120 fps stable. My problem is now the CPU :)
@@fan2hd277 i see almost no visual dif. between full and 3000x3550 :)
tested, for rain sweetspot is 4080+5600x for 120fps
I actually think the drying track looks really good. A track can be damp, look dry but still kick up a lot of spray. I saw this first hand at Portimão last year. You'd swear the track was dry when looking at it, but the spray kick up was still quite large. Maybe iracing could tweak the spray amount just a little but other than that, I don't think there's much more to do in that area.
of course but there has to be a dry line. Especially with 25+ cars on the track there will ALWAYS be a dry line sooner or later.
4080 super 13700k 32gb 5800mhz ram and if i set SSR to high rain only i go from 162fps to 85 to 90fps without it you cant even see the water without it on thats a deal breaker and need optimisation fast.
That's weird. I don't use SSR and see the water, also on my windshield.
RT reflections please. and dlss = ) ssr is a bit off putting to me
The engine can't handle it, they need to modernize it much further to be able to utilize modern GPUs and CPUs then add RT, because you will have probably 20 fps with the current engine with RT
yikes. thanks for this info@@B4JALT
11:42 Being able to remove the rain drops will work for people who find that the wiper blades cause them to experience motion sickness. Emree mentioned in a recent video that the wipers gave them a headache after a while.
RIP to my 7800x3d & 4080 😢
I feel like if people don’t get used to the rain with everyone crashing then it will just be like when the series is at Monza for the week and the numbers drop because no matter how many times people race at Monza or in the rain you will always get them idiots
I dont know why nobody is mentioning it, but I am mostly disappointed, that there is not like a big jolt on the wheel and like natural, sudden slowing of the car once you hit a puddle. You definitely have hit a Puddle on Autobahn at some point, you know what I mean. In iRacing you lose grip or you aquaplane, but there is no physical pushback of water
Top split will not cause allot of problems.
Meanwhile ive seen owen fly this week🤣🤣
Peoples irating is going to drop a lot more than framerates😂
that they nailed the physics side of the rain is nice but because the gfx effects are so bad it is not realistic in terms of immersion! Especially what you pointed out about the visibility when the track is drying out. Also no sign of water on cars. iRacing needs a new gfx engine! It is not possible in 2024 to continue with such an outdated engine. This games kills CPU's and literally bore out GPU's. They need to use multicore CPU's better, especially with the rain.
People like this come everywhere now and find mistakes. Like the spray that doesn't come from the wheels. This is not a mistake but extremely well implemented. When the track dries out, the water that is deeper in the asphalt is sucked out by the undercut. So everything is completely correct. It's a shame that people are always quick to complain about mistakes without really looking into them.
100 FPs
I'm on a 78003dx/4080 machine and this honestly looks like garbage compared to CSP/Pure mod on AC. I've always been willing to give up graphics for the multiplayer but this is insane and it seems like it's going to get worse as they keep piling on top of this code with new features....I guess I could always get a 4090 or 5090
It’s nothing wrong with the spray , if you done that in real life you would know better , the visibility in real life is bad! You can’t see much when you behind someone by close!
For a subscription based sim, it should have the best graphics and always up to date. No excuses, they are ripping us all off. Woo hoo to a 2008 subscription game in 2024

@deadmanwalking1930 says the Dev over here 😅😅 how do you know how easy that is. You can't just move a game over to a new graphics engine it's not that simple. Also iracing must be doing well as its a business and they've never felt the need to drop prices.

40% less fps on my pc would be carnage hahah
It sucks, it was fun at first but some leagues it is every other race. It is not fun to have to drive as slow as you have to in the rain ALL the time.
