yes! iRacing is especially good at this because series are so well compartmentalized. I started running a few stock car stints to relax between my road racing runs (not having a go at anybody!) and that got me started with oval racing!

What a great event #LeMans24Virtual was! Good format, high quality production, good sporting level and awesome racing.

Same place, same time, same rocket, new attempt! 50% favorable weather for GO. T-10 – at Cape Canaveral, FL
30% GO chance for SpaceX CRS-18 due to thunderstorms. All-in for a lucky sucker hole around 18:24 EDT lasting just enough to squeeze it up! – at Cape Canaveral, FL
State of affairs is such that I can't tell whether this is someone playing with dummies on a high scale production system or "art":
