For next season, there will be new ways of repairs for some iRacing cars. This will mean that in long endurance races, we will be able to go out on track with a drivable car after all repairs have been made. This will still be with the current damage model and not the new one. We leave you the post in the iRacing forums where they explain more about it.
Official notes by Greg West:
With the Season 4 2021 release, members will see notable updates to the manner in which LMP1, LMP2, GTE, GT3, and Supercars are able to repair damage.
The systems updated include both steering and aerodynamic damage. The user experience should now be greatly improved notably in endurance races where steering can be completely repaired so the steering wheel is straight while aerodynamic damage can be repaired as well. The end result is an accident may require a lengthy pitstop but the car will have the opportunity to be competitive after the repairs have taken place.
We are excited to have these updates applied in time for the Bathurst 1000 and Petit Le Mans special events that are the next endurance events on the calendar.
See you on the track!
