Oceanic Sim Racing Bathurst 12 hour - Interview with Mike Koroleff

🏁 The OSR Bathurst 12 Hour is back! In this episode of Locked On iRacing, I sit down with Mike Coralliff, the man behind one of the biggest endurance events in Australian sim racing — the Oceanic Sim Racing Bathurst 12 Hour. We dive into how the event started, what makes it different from other iRacing endurance races, and how it has grown into one of the most authentic sim racing experiences you can take part in. From live race control and safety cars to signed trophies from real Bathurst 12 Hour drivers, this event is about as close to the real thing as you can get in sim racing. Mike also shares some incredible stories about attending the real Bathurst 12 Hour, meeting drivers, getting trophies signed by racing legends, and even bringing real commentators into the broadcast. 🤯 We also break down some of the major changes for this year’s race, including: 🏎️ The introduction of the Porsche Cup car as the second class ⚖️ Balance of Performance adjustments 🎯 A new Super Pole format 🚨 Full course cautions and live race control If you're a sim racer, endurance racing fan, or a Bathurst tragic, this is an episode you won't want to miss. And if you're thinking about entering the OSR Bathurst 12 Hour in the future, this will give you a great insight into what makes the event so special. 👍 If you enjoy the episode: • Like the video • Subscribe for more iRacing content, race recaps & sim racing discussions • Let me know in the comments if you've raced the OSR Bathurst 12 Hour! 00:00 🏁 Intro – Bathurst 12 Hour Weekend 00:19 🎙️ Why this episode took a while (Braden cameo pending!) 00:35 🇦🇺 The OSR Bathurst 12 Hour explained 00:54 👋 Introducing Mike Coralliff 02:00 🏎️ How the OSR Bathurst 12 Hour started (2021 origins) 03:26 🏆 The growth of the event & the trophy tradition 04:15 🏁 Learning from the real Bathurst 12 Hour 05:00 🔧 Garage tours & insider knowledge from real teams 05:36 🎤 Real Bathurst commentator joining the broadcast 07:10 🏆 The incredible story behind the signed trophies 09:02 📸 Meeting drivers & getting trophies signed 10:56 🚗 Racing the event yourself – my experience 11:46 🔥 Why this race is more realistic than official iRacing events 12:16 🚨 Race control, safety cars & full course cautions 14:02 ❤️ Why organising the event is worth it 15:30 🏎️ Why the Porsche Cup car replaced GT4 17:18 ⚖️ Balance of Performance challenges 18:17 🏔️ How the Porsche Cup works around Bathurst 19:48 🏁 New Super Pole format explained 21:00 😂 Wild ideas for future qualifying formats 22:04 😴 The aftermath of running a 12-hour event 23:00 📦 Shipping trophies to winners 24:23 🏠 Life after race weekend 25:03 🙏 Sponsors and supporters 26:06 🏁 Final thoughts & wrapping up
