They broke Dirt Road (rally cross) and Dirt Oval into separate licenses about a year ago. I'm still D class in rally but wanted to get my C in dirt oval because the Chilli Bowl comes to iRacing next month and they're going to do a special event for it and now I can take part.
The Fanatec CSL McLaren rim has analog paddles that can be mapped 4 different ways, including as a gas and brake. I have one, I use the paddles as either analog look left/right so I can partial "peek" over, or in the bite point mode for standing start hacks. I doubt you'd be a champion road racer with it but I bet you could run Indy again and be competitive. Worth a look, would require a Fanatec base but the CSL can be had cheap and its 95% the CSW I hear.

Frustrating night tonight. Running the Nationals on Pocono, having a bitch of a time finding the speed in T1, and on that track 1 mistake = an eternity. Tried running Skippys at Donnington... I officially suck on Donnington.
Was in practice feeling good, smooth, get into quali to see I'm 10 seconds off the pace . Turn 4, 7, and the chicane I'm just too timid with and it costs me so much time. 4 especially, too timid and you lose a TON of time, so it must be taken fast... but it seems if I get it even a little bit wrong I'm off exploring the greener parts of the track.
Had a decent run in the trucks... but they aren't official so it isn't helping me with my next license heh.
Wait, Dirt is a separate license?
It's not just oval and road these days?
I have not even logged into iRacing in like..... 3 years. OMG.
It's not that I don't like it. I LOVE it. I was one of the original alpha testers. It's just my health hasn't afforded me the ability to use the damn pedals effectively.
Still looking for a good hand-control wheel kit.
Yeah, every track has atleast 1 big jump along with a good mix of dirt corners and asphalt. They're all built inside existing tracks which is nice because you don't have to buy anything else. It's a lot of fun. They also have off road stadium trucks coming.
I have a T500. I’ll have to see is they work.
Decided to bump this since iracing is seeing a surge of popularity these days. Any new players out there? I signed up a few weeks ago and am currently at a Road C license but I really need to practice and get my pace up. Since I missed out on 8 weeks of season participation by a week or two I am mainly just planning to get my feet wet in IMSA Pilot and Sportscar. If I get to B license I might try VRS Sprint so I can avoid some of the multi-class annoyances.
I resubbed for a month recently but I can't really do much right now because I don't have money for the cars/tracks I don't own yet. So I'm stuck in rookie races, and those get old fast. :/
I still do a few laps from time to time but I haven’t raced in a while, one day I hope to get back to doing regular races every week.
