Anyone else been playing this lately? I picked it up after pulling my PWTS out of the closet.

No, I've actually uninstalled it from my computer.

I'm not a fan of the driving physics vs iRacing.

I run it a lot and like it much better than iRacing. Better than RF2 also but really they all have their pros and cons. I'm looking forward to the new Miata mod sponsored by Flyin Miata for AC.

I like AC over iRacing because:
the interface is much more intuitive and user friendly. IE you can adjust your pov and triple gap on the fly in the middle of a race if you want to.
tons more cars and tracks available and really good ones coming out all the time
you can jump on an open server any time and find a race
nobody yells at you if you go off track
it supports 7.1 sound and yes it makes a big difference over 5.1

Yeah in some ways the physics of iRacing and set up parameters are better but it really depends on the car and track. For the overall experience IMO AC is better and has become my go to sim. I love being able to wind down at the end of the day by jumping in a cobra and running the lake louse loop. Oh and one more thing you can turn damage off in AC if you want to...

Have you guys got the expansion pack with the M235 and Nordschleife Tourist? It seems pretty realistic.

Yeah I did and CMS is running a race on it in a few weeks. We did a little messing around on it and you are right it's really good. Do you race with any leagues? If not you should check out CMS. It's really good guys and there's something for everyone. I like the historics, fun series and I never miss a driver development class. Really good stuff.
