This is what a true simulation is about:
Tire wear is 100x for display purposes. But it's still an amazing feat. Tire modeling is the most important aspect of sim racing. Just like tires in real life: "it's where the rubber meets the road". The one thing that will connect you to the feel of the road surface and eliminate that "floaty" or "ice-skating" feeling. Here the rFactor guys accurately simulate deformation, wear, heat/friction and it's affect on grip, and flat-spotting. The flat-spotting is especially impressive since no one that I know of has accomplished it this well. With iRacing 2.0, rFactor 2 and Forza 4 coming out, it's a pretty damn good year to be a sim racer! Flight sims, where you at?
