Re: IndyCar Academy

I agree with Andre. How would iRacing experience be taken into account? As a positive or a negative? I really don't know. Don't get it.

Many people can afford iRacing. Not many people can afford a full season of the skip barber series, an entry level pro series, or a competitive effort in national level race karting (particularly under the age of 25, the upper limit for the karting shootout). In my opinion, these are exactly the people that the ICA is for.

Clearly, Andre beats my times in iRacing and in real life. He didn't beat me because he did some TV show in england. I'm not that stupid. Of course any experience helps but it's a small factor at best. If he beat me because he put more time in on the simulator, then good for him... (although I don't really think that's the case)

Just my opinion and of course anyone is free to disagree. I'm just happy for the opportunity to have participated in such an awesome event.
