Yes im currently getting used to the Ford Falcon V8, i was enjoying the mustang alot but after spending hours and hours in a left hand drive i would then go out in my RHD Z and be a bit too close to kerbs thats why i started with the Falcon.

Yes it is definitely fun and cheap compared to real racing/training. I do love the accuracy of the tracks too.

Im certainly learning a lot more in the falcon which is good though i think it will be a few weeks more of practice before i even think about TT/Qual/race etc

Hello fellow iRacer

Yep ive been using it for a couple months now, i enjoy learing how to handle the cars/tracks etc but i find i have to put soo much time in to be competitive

Not sure if its saved my butt but i am definitely more comfortable if the back steps out

Hello,

First post but just had to say something when i saw this.

I had an evo 8 (was a 260 remapped to 350bhp )just before i got the Z. Performance wise it was amazing and i loved the car. Servicing is 4500 miles and costs way too much. Especially when it needs the big service and the engine has to come out etc. I used it as an everyday car (same as i use the Z) and though it never failed to make me smile, i did feel that it was just a money pit (it seemed to spend more time in the garage getting bits done than driving it)which took some of the enjoyment out of it. I know many people dont keep up the service schedules however if you dont then things will go wrong. Just my personal experience but the Z feels a lot more indestructible (probably in my head though lol).

Anyway to cut a long story short, for me the running costs were way too high compared with the Z.

The evo does make you feel like a driving god in some respects however its only because it compensates for my lack of driving talent. For sheer enjoyment i do prefer the Z, though everyone is different.

Anyway good luck with your choice
