Der iRacing-Patch vom Mittwoch, der zweite für die Saison 2022, ist nicht lang, aber er ist wichtig für die Zukunft der Simulationsplattform. Die in Zusammenarbeit mit der NASCAR für das Saisoneröffnungsrennen Clash am 6. Februar entwickelte Kurzstrecke Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum kann ab heute offiziell in iRacing genutzt werden. Darüber hinaus wurden die NASCAR NEXT Gen-Fahrzeuge, die an zwei Sonntagen auf der Strecke fahren werden, auf den neuesten Stand gebracht.
Bereits im September 2021 wurde bekannt gegeben, dass die Pop-up-Rennstrecke im historischen American-Football-Stadion den Kalender der NASCAR Cup Series mit einem Exhibition-Event eröffnen wird. Ähnlich wie bei der jährlichen Chili Bowl, bei der die Strecke keine feste Einrichtung ist, wurde die Strecke im LA Coliseum in nur wenigen Wochen nach dem Ende der College-Football-Saison 2021 gebaut.
Ein großer Teil der Vorbereitungsarbeiten erfolgte in Zusammenarbeit mit den Leuten von iRacing und ihrer Technologie, um den Veranstaltungsort zu scannen, zu erstellen, zu bauen und umzugestalten sowie ihn ständig mit Talenten der eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series zu testen, um die endgültige Version zu erhalten.
Viele dieser Fahrer der eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series werden ihre Saison 2022 am kommenden Dienstag (1. Februar) mit einem eigenen Clash-Event am Veranstaltungsort eröffnen. Die Erweiterung der Simulation am Mittwoch gibt auch den Fahrern der NASCAR Cup Series die Möglichkeit, die neue Strecke zu testen, bevor die eigentliche Veranstaltung stattfindet.
Außerdem können sie das fertiggestellte Rennpaket für die Saison 2022 nutzen. Die NASCAR NEXT Gen-Rennwagen sind seit Mai 2021 im Dienst und blieben relativ unangetastet, während die Entwicklung in der realen Welt weiterging. Jetzt, mit dem endgültigen 670 PS-Motor über konische Abstandshalter sowie einem 4-Zoll-Spoiler am Heck für die meisten Rennen der Saison, werden iRacer endlich die richtigen Zahlen haben, um rauszugehen und Rennen zu fahren.
Zu den weiteren Aktualisierungen der Simulation gehören die Aktivierung der NVIDIA Reflex-Unterstützung sowie weitere ausgewählte Fahrzeug- und Strecken-Updates. Der Rest der Patchnotizen ist, wie immer, unten aufgeführt. Lasst uns in den Kommentaren wissen, was ihr von der neuen Strecke und dem aktualisierten NEXT Gen Auto haltet!
Changelog iRacing 2022 Season 1 Patch 2
SIMULATION
--------------------------------------------------------------
Graphics
NVIDIA Reflex support has been enabled.
- - When enabled in the Graphics options (on the top right), and when the Simulator is GPU-bound, this option reduces Simulator to render latency by enabling low latency mode in the device driver. When enabled with “boost mode” it also keeps the GPU clock rate higher when the Simulator is CPU-bound, which can help a little bit too. Enabling NVIDIA Reflex in the Graphics Options can help reduce this latency, mainly when the Simulator is GPU-bound. When CPU-bound, there is not much Reflex can do.
An additional graphics-related system meter, named "T" has been added to the user interface.
- - The T-Meter measures the total frame time from when the renderer started generating the frame until the GPU completed drawing it. It is not the same as the R + G timer, because the CPU queues frames to the GPU and they can pile up, also the GPU is running in parallel with the CPU.
- - The maximum pre-rendered frame widgets are hidden when Reflex is enabled, since it takes over and keeps it near zero.
The NVIDIA Reflex option is disabled by default if the GPU/driver does not support it.
Spotter
A new setting, “[SPCC] textDurationFactor=1” has been added to the app.ini file.
- - This value is the multiple for the length of time spotter text messages are displayed on the screen (ie: a value of 2 leaves spotter messages on the screen twice as long as the default value of 1).
TrueForce
TrueForce support has been temporarily disabled while we await a patch to GHUB.
- - All Logitech G923 users will need to recalibrate their steering.
- - If desired, you can manually turn TrueForce support back on by manually editing the “app.ini” file and setting “[Force Feedback] trueForceEnabledForcedOff=1”.
Reworked Logitech TrueForce support so users will no longer need to recalibrate after the system is enabled/disabled.
- - That’s right! This is hopefully the last time you’ll be forced to recalibrate by an update!

Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum
NEW TRACK!
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, a short asphalt oval, is now available for purchase and racing!
More than 100 years ago, one of the United States’ most iconic sporting venues was commissioned as a memorial to veterans of World War I. Since then, the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has hosted just about every event imaginable, from the Summer Olympics (three times as of 2028, which will become a record for any facility at that time) to the Super Bowl, and has served as the home stadium for numerous professional and college sports teams in football, baseball, soccer, and rugby. The stadium has even hosted dozens of major off-road motorsport events, with trucks and cars jumping in and out of the Coliseum entrance every lap.
In 2022, NASCAR became the latest major league sport to join the venue’s legacy with the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum. A quarter-mile circuit constructed within stadium walls will see the annual preseason all-star race of the NASCAR Cup Series leave Daytona for the first time. The track was designed and tested by iRacing in cooperation with NASCAR in advance of the unique event, with top real-world and sim racing pros all logging countless laps before both its release on iRacing and real-world debut. The change in venue also leads to a change in format, with qualifying heats to build the feature grid in a manner similar to a local short track race.
Now’s your chance to take the wheel in a unique part of NASCAR history in one of America’s most iconic sporting venues. See if you’ve got what it takes to conquer the Coliseum quarter mile!
