After a season of F3 I moved to 3.5 and it feels much more like an F1 car. Driving it well is more challenging but also more satisfying, plus you get like 8 DRS a race to use. As my goal is to get the F1 experience one day, it is my choice. Currently after finishing a race, 40min later the next race starts, which is totally fine for me. The only thing that is an issue is there are no splits, so usually 1-3 guys tend do lap me and I need to get out of the way. This is fine as this is something I need to learn, but can make races a bit less eventful, as there are only few guys with my pace to really compete on eye-level. HOWEVER the big plus is that there are no crash festivals at turn 1, and people drive much more respectful. As this is the biggest killjoy for me in F3, F3.5 is a way better experience. And I think many people have fled to F3.5 for this reason :)
okay here is my honest review: in the end I don't care how good this car is, because anyway I have so nasty drivers every single race regardless of which split I'm in, and I hardly complete first 2 or 3 laps due to somebody just spins right in front of me (mostly in traction phase, many people don't know how to put their foot on the gas pedal). Quality of the race is competely nowhere somehow. If you have not bought this car, I strongly reccomend you NOT to buy. I like the car itself don't get me wrong, but you cannot race this I'm sure as well. The more you try to be clean the more you gonna frustlated. I almost think about quitting iRacing completely. Generally quite small number of entries might represents this well. And the fact that this car is absolutely quick and on the other hand this is B license race, the chance of encountring the driver who don't know what he is doing is quite high unfortunatelly. This race must be at least for A license and should not be open for amature drivers. Letting amatures drive this cars is in my opinion a huge mistake. Sorry to be so negative, but it is my honest feeling.

40fps? Time for a new graphics card, mate.
Funny you should mention that, new PC arrived today!
@@E53-f7z congrats!
F3 feels floaty and weak for me, i wish this or ir18 was more popular
Yeah there seems to be a bit of an aversion to any of the higher powered open wheelers, not sure why.
@@E53-f7z I suppose they aren’t cars that you can floor it and hope you’ll come on top. You need to be precise with those.
@@erelster worst thing is when racing online people don't know how to control them
thnx for the review. Hope there are enough ppl still playing this one as i am sure going to give it a try
I would just double check official participation stats in the forums first. I don't think it's getting a lot of action sadly.
