iRacing crash highlights 105: Indy 500 Special

[@phildestroyer1236]

I feel bad for the guy who was just pacing thru the crash in 3rd gear and just got squeezed and crashed. Anyway, love the video!

[@iRacingSam]

Yeah, a lot of people did a good job of trying to avoid it but got caught in it anyway. When a car towards the front of the field spins at turn 1 lap 1 there is usually going to be a big mess.

[@NexBS2022]

I think it's because they are packed together and some of them panic and lose control leading to chaos

[@ApsyrysClips]

nice video, I was in split 30 with a sof of 1788 and apart from a dude spinning out turn 2 on lap 1 taking out 4 people, we got only 3 other cautions with minor incidents

[@iRacingSam]

Thanks. Yeah, higher SOF doesn't automatically equal cleaner race or vice versa.

[@jphuffine88]

Lol that was me avoiding the crash at 0:44

[@MarcusDoughty15]

That’s some good driving right there to avoid it 👍🏻

[@CostanTheOne]

Nice vid :)

[@NexBS2022]

8:10 dude oversteered and lost control of his handling :(

[@iRacingSam]

Yep, and caused a big mess. Always going to be a bad when someone up front does that at the start.

[@Campino612]

Is it possible as newcomer in iRacing to drive the IndyCar Series or does I have drive other series before? The Indycar is the only serie which is interesting for me to buy iRacing.

[@iRacingSam]

If you want to run in official races you would have to work you way up through at last rookie and D license. It doesn’t necessarily take that long and is part of the process. If you find a league that is running the Indycar they make their own rules and may be happy to accept rookies.

[@NexBS2022]

Is this a multiplayer race setting with real ppl racing?

[@iRacingSam]

Yes, iRacing is almost exclusively online racing against real people, they only recently added a bit of AI.

[@iixxNJxiii]

My split was all on IR,I think cuz I didn't qualify. I would always crash so didn't set time, im not very good on ovals lol did better in tune race

[@iRacingSam]

I don't race ovals much either. Glad your other race went better.

[@vipxrtxstic3825]

[@iRacingSam]
