For AC, you don't have to use the H-shifter; the flappy panel works on every vehicle.

The main distinction with Iracing lies in its simulation focus. Compared to other games I've played, it offers the most realistic driving experience. It comes at a higher cost if you're seeking just a game, but for those who want to race and immerse themselves in the racing lifestyle from home, it delivers a unique challenge. You begin at the lowest level, progress through stages, and your performance impacts your license status—winning or placing in the top three earns points. The downside is limited car choices; if you don't like the included vehicles, you're charged $12 per car and must buy more tracks separately. The monthly subscription adds to the expense, and ownership is purely digital with no AI drivers. Finding races can be tough at times. The tracks are highly detailed and extremely accurate, making it rare to find Dirt-style cars in other racing sims. Overall, it provides nearly every driving scenario you could imagine.

You're right, I remember it took me a while to get used to driving the Miura without the H-Shifter. It was about two years ago.

yeah, the controls are very configurable, there is a tick box to turn the H-Shifter on and off, why you would want to if you have got one, who knows, can't beat a bit of heal toe.

Let's clear up some iRacing misconception here: 1) You don't need 2k+ worth of shit to have fun.. I have a G27 steering wheel with Fanatec peddles, hardly 2k. 2) All cars can be driven with auto-clutch so floppy peddles work just fine 3) Yes its a bit more expensive but you are paying for iRacing actually going to real tracks, scanning them with lasers and then building them to exact detail. Seriously.. I have friends who use iRacing and race in real life, the tracks are realistic enough to be used for race prep 4) There is a fair bit of variety of cars, true you can't own everyone but the base content will keep you busy. MX5 Cup will get you through rookie, SRF can be run after promotion out of rookie. 5) Buy content in groups for maximum discounts, then as you get more content you get hefty discounts for how much you own and when buying it in groups 6) If you lose a race you don't lose license points. Here is some education: a) Points for finishes. This is determined by iRating. iRating is based on how well you finish against the competitions iRating. Each race has what's called a Strength Of Field, SOF for short. This is based on everyones iRating. When you finish your iRating will be added to or subtracted from. In a race your number is where you are against the competition, I.E - if you are #8, you are the 8th out of how many are in that race. So if you are #8 out of 10, and finish top 4 typically you will gain iRating.. 5/6 will be about even, 7th or worst you will probably lose. The points for finishes are determined by SOF, higher competition, more points in a race. b) Safety rating - This is determined by how many incidents you have and is key to getting you out of rookie. Race clean and keep in on track and it will go up.. have high incident counts every race and you'll be stuck in rookie. Also in a standard race 17 incidents and you are out. Incident can be contact, running wide on a corner, turning in too early and cutting a corner, etc. Depending on what you want to do its all available now.. ovals, dirt ovals, road courses and rally cross. I highly recommend it for long term fun. If you are going the road route MX5 Cup in rookie then do the SRF series to learn how to race.. SRF series typically has 3 to 5 free tracks per season and tries to double up a paid track to maximize your purchase.
