Censorship??

Apparently, a few thick-headed retards are unable to comprehend the English language, in reference to:

Voicing concerns and opinions on Iracing forums only attracts people who label you as a "whiner". We started IracingSucks.com to compile all of the problems and shortcomings of Iracing. We also want to provide Iracing members with a place to voice their opinions and concerns, without fear of ridicule or censorship.

For the slow learners who most likely never completed their education past the 2nd grade........this site is for Iracing members who believe that Iracing is mismanaged. They can express their un-censored viewpoints, concerns and frustrations, without being attacked by the koolaid drinkers and labeled as whiners and crybabies.

This site is NOT for Iracing members who attack others for complaining about Iracing mismanagement issues. And in case you haven't figured it out yet........its because of YOU, that we created this site! If we were able to express our concerns and frustrations about Iracing mismanagement in the Iracing forums without being attacked, we would have never started IracingSucks.com.

Don't Drink The Koolaid!

There are many Iracing members who are old enough to remember Jim Jones, the founder of Jonestown. We see a lot of similarities with Jim Jones' followers, and the Iracing members who stick their heads in the sand, and ignore the serious management issues within Iracing.

For those not familiar with Jim Jones, he was the founder of one of the most notorious religious cults in modern history. In 1979, he convinced most of his followers to drink koolaid-laced cyanide. 918 people died in Jonestown, most of which had been brainwashed into believing anything he said.

In the Iracing forums, there are many people who are able to forgive and forget the habitual mismanagement of Iracing staff members, despite overwhelming evidence that Iracing repeatedly mismanages their business. And thats what Iracing is......a business. Apparently, the staff at Iracing doesn't seem to understand that. In fact, in any other corporation, these staff members would have been given the boot a long time ago for their incompetence.

We are amazed at how many people keep giving Iracing a break, saying "they are doing the best they can", and "golly gee-wiz, they are good guys, and we shouldn't question their screw-ups."

Essentially, these people are just like the followers of Jim Jones. They have drank the Iracing koolaid, and are willing to put up with Iracing's incompetence. NEWS FLASH: While many members have drank the Iracing koolaid, many more have not. They are still thinking clearly and logically, and see that Iracing has major problems in the way they manage their SIM service.

Editors Note To All Iracing Koolaid Drinkers: You can blindly support Iracing on their forums, but you are not welcome here, if all you do is criticize those of us who are still thinking clearly.

The Iracing Daytona 500 Debacle

The Daytona 500 was billed by Iracing to be a huge event for serious sim racers. Instead, it was a huge disappointment to Iracing customers. At 7:00 PM EST, Iracing servers completely crashed. No one could even access the site. How did this happen? We saw over 1300 drivers waiting to access the race server prior to the crash.

One would have thought that Iracing would have had a plan in place to handle the increased demand on the servers for "the big event". Instead, in true Iracing fashion, they underestimated the bandwidth demand on their servers. Iracing's Tony Gardner posted a message in the Iracing forums stating that: "the number connections exceeded what was configured. Systems were configured along the network path to contend with a large number of connections however we had a system that failed and therefore had its configuration exceed capacity. It is third-party software with few hooks for monitoring resource usage. We did our best to infer usage and had over configured the limits by a factor of three."

You know, I'm just a dumb country boy.......but it would seem like Iracing would have limited the number of connections to prevent the server from crashing! They say that they configured the limits by a factor of three.....great! What was that factor? If it was 1000 users, Iracing should have capped the number of people who could sign up to race by that number! Instead, they allowed an unlimited number of users to connect, and CRASH!

We could cut Iracing a break, if their lack of planning were an isolated case. Unfortunately, this is a continuation of a pattern of mismanagement by Iracing staff members. Its a slap in the face of the people who have invested a lot of time and money in Iracing, and we plan to be there every time they screw up, to call them out, and hold them accountable.

Why We Started This Website

We purchased the domain www.IracingIssues.com, because of Iracing's repeated failure to properly manage Iracing. We recognize that there are a lot of great features in Iracing, and do not suggest that Iracing is alltogether terrible.

We equate the creaters of Iracing to the typical "mad scientist". They have the technical skills to create a great thing, but they don't have good business heads on their shoulders. Simply put, they often times lack basic commen sense. They tend to ignore their customers, and fail to communicate important news.

So why should we care enough to create a website? Iracing isn't a $40.00 box of software. Many people have spent close to a thousand dollars on membership subscriptions, tracks. cars, etc. Voicing concerns and opinions on Iracing forums only attracts people who label you as a "whiner". We started IracingSucks.com to compile all of the problems and shortcomings of Iracing. We also want to provide Iracing members with a place to voice their opinions and concerns, without fear of ridicule or censorship.
