Hi everyone,
My cousin introduced me to a free program that is like steam that I am going to be using. It is called discord and you can download it here. discordapp.com/download This would be a great way to help keep our fellowship time but allow race related conversations to be able to happen. I don't want to lose the fellowship time I just think it might help with some issues that we as admins have had to deal with trying to get the races to run smoothly like clearing black flags and finding out who caused a caution.
The Discord server name is "Racing For Jesus"
If you need some help to download or sign up please feel free to ask me.
Here is a link to the Racing For Jesus Discord server:
discord.gg/y9N2zKt
Complete introduction to using Discord:
FYI, Discord Nitro is an additional service that you can pay for but is NOT needed.
Here is a short tutorial on how to test/setup your mic:
support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020641332-Mic-Testing
Here is a video on how to setup your audio settings:
youtu.be/fnMKZB6zTcQ
This video shows how to make the screen overlay work. The only thing I've noticed different is when you go into your Discord settings and scroll down to App Settings in the menu it mine doesn't say "Game Activity" it says Activity Status! Everything else works like the video shows!:

        I've had Discord for quite some time, but I've never been able to get the Overylay to work in iRacing.  This video shows how to make it work. The only thing I've noticed is when you go into your Discord settings and scroll down to App Settings in the menu it mine doesn't say "Game Activity" it says something different.  Everything else works like the video shows!  I've posted a link to the video below:
