iRacing 2023 Season 4 Patch 4 Released

You don’t expect major changes towards the end of an official season, but there are some important tweaks to note with iRacing 2023 Season 4 Patch 4 released.

The main updates have been for the New Damage Model, as it applies to the GTP Class, NASCAR Next Gen, and the Ferrari 296 GT3, which means some parts will break more easily and others will stand up to damage a little more.
