  • Getting Started in Sim Racing Primer
    Getting Started in Sim Racing Primer You are interested in simulation racing (sim racing) but you don't know where to start or how to get started. The purpose of this primer is to provide a good starting point for you to use to make the plunge. Like real world racing, sim racing provides the excitement of driving door-to-door competition. Also like real world racing you can spend a small amount of money getting started and as you progress in experience and increased interest, you can spend a significant amount. Sim racing is "scalable", which is good because as your experience and interest grows, there are more and better hardware and software options available to you. Sim Racing Software Titles Popular software sim racing titles are Assetto Corsa, Project Cars 2, RaceRoom Racing Experience, DiRT Rally 2, Automobilista, rFactor 2, and the most popular and most followed title, iRacing.com. For the second half of 2019, PCA Sim Racing will continue to use the iRacing sim platform. The pricing varies considerably and you can spend as little as $35 USD or much more depending on the title. A suggestion. Look at the recommended column. The minimum requirements are really minimum and most drivers will not be comfortable with the low end settings very long. Sim Racing Hardware To get started, you will need a recent game console (Sony Playstation 4, Microsoft Xbox One) or a moderately powered Microsoft Windows 10 based PC computer. PC computers that can run modern sim racing titles can be the same computer you use for Internet video viewing at home, or you may decide to purchase a new computer.
