    Maybe a new feature for AMS?
    As I know, over 20 years ago, there was a CART game in which the visor got dirty and you could wipe the dirt away with the drivers hand. Wasn't it also in RACE07 / RACE ON?

    For this episode I had the actual time and date for the real-life vid (9/29/17 - 18:02). I plugged that into AMS 2's historical weather - the sky was perfect, and the sun was in the correct position - but it seems autumn comes slightly early to AMS 2 :whistle:.

    Again, for this episode I had the actual time and date for the real-life vid (6/9/2018 - 10:19). However the historical weather was wrong - it was raining in sim at that time - so I changed the weather to overcast to match.

    He is awesome - also making gestures, while doing it. Check this one out - the video is really shaky, but he calls the whole 30 minutes. At one point he says "If you have to be somewhere at 3:30 in the morning, you might as well be in a 962 at Daytona" :D

    awesome. the camera shake on the banked sections make it look like he's time travelling, which I guess he basically is...The cueing is actually really helpful, shows you just how patient you have to be with these cars.
