fun fact the oxford plains pit road is used in real life exactly as it is set up on iracing, including the double sided stalls on the infield. They actually have live pit stops in a 250 lap SLM race with 40-45 cars every year and the pit stops are show itself.

But wait a second! Dirt races don’t even use pit road! The tires never get changed in the race; and the races aren’t long enough to get re-fueled ever! There’s no reason to even consider dirt pit roa- wait a moment…

for Pocono North, IRL they use the entry to the nascar pitlane as the exit and the front straight as a the entry. So makes sense why iracing just did the acess road

I think the charlotte dirt track pit road is like that for a technical reason. If it just went straight down the middle, you'd end up skipping a bunch of the checkpoints on the track and you'd get disqualified instantly. I could be wrong though.

The reason for the squiggle back pit at Oxford is 1. It's there in real life 2. They didn't want to move the flags and in between used to be where emergency vehicles parked during races. Other advantage is during long races there's enough room to park retired cars out of the way. I wish it had both sides for iRacing honestly lol

Even in iRacing, if you slow down and hug the top like they do IRL, it won't send you flying lol I watched Sheldon Haudenchild go up over at that exact spot sideways a couple years ago. Was sitting in the pit grandstands before I worked there. He went completely over and landed on his wheels at the bottom of the hill. Came back out with just the tip of one of his wings bent lol

That is weird that a hosted session at Oxford Plains only uses 35 of the pit stalls but AI races at that track use all 45 pit stalls. When you mentioned the right side stalls were painted but not useable I was confused because I had raced there and had a right side pit stall when starting at the back of the grid. iRacing should update the stalls used if they are already there somewhere in the sim.

So weedsport irl, i think you said it but the pits are actually over there. Years ago though they use to use the infield as the pits area for 4 cylinders and the street stocks/pure stocks or whatever they called them and the main pit was in turn 1 where you see the ambulance on iracing. Be glad we dont have to come in and out there

How on earth are you supposed to know on which lane your pitstall is at Oxford Plains?! Also what you seem to be forgetting for the usage of those pitroads in official races are penalties. I already had to use the pitlane on Wild West Motorsports Park myself after an accidental jumpstart for example. So it‘s not that far fetched to end up in those.

i won’t ever understand why iracing doesn’t utilize real pit areas such as garages or off track places like (dirt charlotte) for example. the outer part of the track is used is damage occurs. then the chili bowl. that might be hard to turn, but it’s realistic. they’ll trade images if things in garages and stuff as well. make the “simulator” more realistic

You forgot the most stupid out entry in all of iracing! Knockhill RX😅 Wild west pit road is necessary for serving penalties on jump starts but it gets even much much better: In rallycross you get a post race penalty for jump starts or doing wrong joker laps. All of those things happen frequently. But in knockhill you have to drive through the pits in order to serve the penalty. the pit entry is blocked with stones so you get dqed, you tow or you find a way through the stones which actually some people have done somehow.
