Re: iRacing broadcasts
WGI ended up being a clean race, with no mayhem on lap 1 so my early pit strategy didn't save much. I switched from the Elantra to the Audi RS3. The Audit steers like a tank but it's faster on the straight. I was about .3 faster per lap with the Audi. I tanked qualifying so I could pit coming to green, still had one guy behind me and he got a black flag for passing me before green. Still managed a P8 out of 18 cars. At 39 seconds behind the leader after 40+ minutes I was pretty happy with pace.
Last Monday I ran a race with the new TCR league. It was a train wreck. Got caught up in someone else's mess twice, both requiring a tow. Still managed to finish ahead of 9 cars. I am spotted a few times and mentioned once or twice, but the results tower display on the left only goes from 1-35 so literally no way to track my progress. https://youtu.be/2nkpqVK10-U?si=8tPvivef7BPsqLVN
The new Mustang league starts officially next Tuesday evening. They have color coding for the class and a league sponsor. I tried the teal wrap but couldn't take the clash with the red, so this is what I ended up with:
Mustang debut on Tue 1/13 coverage starts 9:10 PM. There are 46 drivers registered so I am not expecting much air time. Good news is the AM class is smaller so there's a chance to be competitive there. I've practiced Imola with this car a fair bit, though I'm not sure how I'll do since this event is two 20 minute sprint races. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUfsQ9WY_Ek

Last Monday I ran in Alpha Touring Challenge at Charlotte Roval. Video link here: https://youtu.be/G5OP5EJXeYI?si=1IxOgUJDBh6YZk9P&t=2044 Standing starts were awful I have to learn how to launch the car, but lots of respectful driving in these two sprint races. Admittedly I don't get much coverage in this video.
The American Muscle Series races this past Tuesday at Imola went pretty well. In the second race I was in a pack of the top 4 in AM class and had a chance to win the class. Broadcast crew is not good so far.
Up next is XSLR league with the touring cars at Daytona road course. Coverage starts tonight at 8:10 PM: https://www.youtube.com/live/sX3mUiivoG0

Re: iRacing broadcasts
Again I ran a race in Alpha Touring Challenge on Monday that they broadcast on Tuesday: https://youtu.be/Yc5pv5zBFSY?si=YnF81ARJQHfW51ak&t=2055 All the practice was dry but the rain came for the race. Luckily I practiced in the rain a little.
The American Muscle Series Brands Hatch race was decent - had to take evasive action lap 1 but did not damage the car. I did get some coverage for making a good pass in that race.
Up next is Sunday 1/25 at 8:10 PM where XSLR will go into the final phase of the season which is open wheel racing. We start at Road Atlanta and will be running the F3 car. It's crazy fast and I'm not too good with it yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8Efkg54xhQ
