| How the Mazda MX-5 in PCC Gained Me 300 iRating – iRacing’s Hidden Gem Just Got Wetter | 03 Jul 2025 | 00:17:30 | |
Comment on the show?..send me a text! Not every race is won with horsepower. Sometimes, it's your mind that wins it for you. In this episode of the Lone Road iRacers Podcast, we’re diving into a series that’s become my proving ground: the Production Car Challenge. Driving the Mazda MX-5 Cup this season, I’ve gained over 300 iRating, not by being the fastest, but by staying smart—and staying clean. But just when I thought I had it mastered, iRacing threw in a curveball: rain. Late-race showers, shifting grip, and chaos in every corner. Let’s break down why this combination of momentum racing and unpredictable weather is one of the best experiences iRacing has to offer. Our second subject on todays podcast, we’re taking a deep dive into one of the most extreme, misunderstood, and underutilized combinations in sim racing: Monza with the Oval configuration. It’s fast, it’s furious, and it’s a time capsule of motorsport history that most drivers skip over without ever giving it a second thought. But why does Monza have an oval at all? And how does it fit with the more commonly used GP layout? Today, we’re diving into the legacy of this legendary hybrid track and what makes it so brutally challenging in iRacing.

| Power and Precision: Ferrari 296 Meets The Bend in iRacing | 05 Jun 2025 | 00:28:45 | |
Comment on the show?..send me a text! Welcome to The Lone Road iRacers Podcast, where the virtual rubber meets the real-world road—and today, we're taking you on a ride that celebrates both cutting-edge performance and Australia’s rising star in motorsport. In this double-feature episode, we dive into two of the most exciting additions to the iRacing service: The Ferrari 296 GT3 and The Bend Motorsport Park. One is a masterclass in Italian hybrid engineering; the other, a sweeping circuit born in the South Australian outback with global ambitions. First up, we head Down Under to The Bend Motorsport Park, a track that’s quickly earned a reputation as one of the most dynamic circuits in the world. From its sprawling International layout to the technical East and West circuits, The Bend brings a fresh challenge to sim racers. Long straights, complex braking zones, and fast-flowing sequences—it’s a track that demands respect and rewards precision. Then the Ferrari 296. It's not just another prancing horse—it’s a revolution on wheels. Ferrari’s first rear-wheel drive hybrid GT car blends a screaming twin-turbo V6 with electric precision, redefining how we think about speed, power, and agility. We’ll explore its road-going roots, the race-spec 296 GT3, and how it stacks up against GT3 mainstays in iRacing. It’s fast, it’s furious, and it’s surprisingly refined. But does it have what it takes to dominate the sim? Together, these two additions aren’t just content updates—they’re game-changers. Whether you're a GT3 warrior looking for your next ride or an iRacer who loves learning every inch of a new circuit, this episode will have something for you. So buckle in—because today, we’re merging passion and precision, Maranello and South Australia, horsepower and handling—all on the Lone Road. Let’s get started.

| iRacing: why we race! | 29 May 2025 | 00:17:31 | |
Comment on the show?..send me a text! Welcome to The Lone Road iRacers Podcast. I’m [Your Name], and today, we’re stepping away from our usual breakdowns of track guides, update analyses, and hardware debates. Instead, we’re going to ask a question that hits a little deeper: Why do we race on iRacing? At first glance, it’s simple. We race because we love motorsport. But the real answer? It’s layered. Emotional. Personal. Because if you’ve ever found yourself prepping for a race like it’s a Grand Prix, or felt your heart pound on a quali lap, or replayed a close finish for days… you know this sim is more than just pixels and physics. It’s a part of who we are. So today, it’s just me and you. Let’s spend the next 40 or so minutes diving deep into what really drives us — mentally, emotionally, and maybe even spiritually — when we hit that race button.

The show where we dive deep into everything iRacing—from the thrill of the perfect lap to the frustration of getting wrecked by a poor rejoin. I’m your host, Guy Robertson, and today, we’re tackling one of the most infuriating issues every iRacer faces: the bad rejoin. We’ve all been there—you’re battling for a top position, everything is going perfectly, and then out of nowhere, a backmarker crashes into you because they didn’t rejoin the track safely. You lose your position, your race, your sanity... and it can take a real toll on you, mentally and physically. But it’s not just about frustration. It’s about how these moments affect your confidence, your racing mentality, and even how you approach future races. So, what can iRacing do to prevent these accidents? And what should the driver who causes the incident do afterward? We’ll explore all of that and more today. Plus, stick around for a special announcement at the end of the show—we’re planning a live podcast episode to discuss potential solutions with you, the iRacing community.
