CHANGE LOGS:

iRacing BETA Interface (03.01.13-beta)

– The iRacing BETA Interface may now be used to download updates while iRacing is down for maintenance, similar to how https://members.iracing.com/download works for the classic membersite.

AI Races

– AI drivers no longer sharply turn to the left when the green flag flies when using rolling starts.

– AI drivers have received some new pace lap training which should make them less aggressive on the throttle in slow corners.

– Official iRacing AI Seasons will now be generated when the iRacing BETA Interface is first launched.

V7 Tires

– Tire parameters have been adjusted to reduce the likelihood of roll-overs.

– All V7 Tires now have simulated tire warmers to mimic warm-up laps.

Cautions

– – Currently, this feature is in the final stages of testing, and we will have this feature ready for you as soon as we can!
