SRS / iRacing Comparison?

I've done a 3-month trial (which expired last week) and tried a few cars, VR, and just 2-3 races all with the included content, but I'm thinking of going big with a 2-year membership ($120 after new account discount) after I return from my holiday travels. I'm very intrigued by the Skip Barber series that people gush about. I like driving open wheelers in VR and the Skippy sounds like it's within my skill range to control.

I vastly prefer the Assetto Corsa simulator to iRacing's because of the helpful apps I can run, the Content Manager launcher, the great community from SRS, a great variety of cars and tracks, and the free (after AC is purchased) service.

But iRacing's service certainly is nice. It's great to race hourly in the series I'm interested in instead of just certain times during the day/week. I fully understand with the number of drivers in SRS's user base, running the same car/track config hourly would result in much fewer drivers on the starting grid. iRacing's HUD is seriously limited compared to AC. You can't even reposition apps or display multiple at once - just page through them in the "black box."

I'm interested to hear anybody else's thoughts on their iRacing/SRS preferences.

I have no iracing experience, except that I did download and install it, but was halted at the subscription wanting. This was during the time I was looking for some good racers. I ended up getting into R3E, and have all content, with the exception of the latest added, three cars,... so far. So, from what I have read, which I've done a lot of, I'd be really hard pressed to consider, iracing, at this point, pushed over by SRS, and the ability of simply being able to host my own Servers in R3E (Can I host my own server in iracing,... idk. I don't think so?). So for me the iracing vs SRS, debate, or question, is an easy one. I can't consider iracing as even a side Sim at this point. SRS, for sure, so far. Now, that being said, I'm sure iracing is a very fine Sim, for those, that are knee deep into it. But as someone else mentioned, I simply don't have the time to invest, into it like that, which will also equate to a $ > time, problem for me.

SRS just makes a much better, time > $, sense to me. Content is a given.

SRS > iRACING
