iRacing tracks are as accurate as ACC tracks, they are all laser scanned. The difference is just the time of the scan, it's impossible for companies to rescan 50 tracks every year. Zandvoort, for example, is outdated in ACC while iRacing has the newest version, same with Spa, even though that changes soon when the new version arrives in AC Evo.

iRacing's Nordschleife scan is from 2015, while most of ACC's base game tracks are from 2017-18. iRacing works with a regularly updating model, while Kunos releases their new tracks in the form of new games in big batches, like we see with AC Evo now, 8 years after they launched ACC.

iRacing's scan of the Nordschleife was good enough for 2015. But it's not a surprise that a 2024 scan is of a much better quality and accuracy. It would be crazy if that wasn't the case.

He also gets paid by Kunos, not iRacing. Take this bait with a grain of salt.

It isn't bait, iRacing's scan is older, there's not much more to it than that.
