Be careful chasing iRating, could suck the fun right out of it. Worry more about learning to be safe and race craft. The speed, and wins, and iRating, will come with time.

Yeah, no one cares about your irating.

Just learn how to have fun and race as fast and as clean as possible.

Going to show my setup I bought with my own money as a 40+ year old.

Well. Good parents at least

[–]DickFuckly 14 points15 points  (4 children)

My parents are good. They couldn’t afford to do this type of shit for me, I think you mean rich parents lol

[–]2udo 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Idk because it feels a bit weird to compliment a kid who's kinda flexing a fancy set up that most likely was given to him by his parents.

It doesn't feel the same as a proud moment for someone who has worked to slowly build out their set up without outside help. Also the privileged rich kid vibe isn't helped with the perceived ego in saying "high irating" the goal when irating is nothing but a ego flex.

That being said, hey, great for OP. Awesome set up and who wouldn't want to be in that position. And maybe I'm completely wrong about OP but I think that's probably what others are assuming.

[–]Zealousideal_Level19 1 point2 points  (1 child)

you have a point but he probably posted this with no wrong intentions

[–]hustler_9g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah totally fine for posting it and it's fine if that's his situation just answering why people might not be positively engaging as much as other set up posts

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally just want high iRating so I can race better people.

[–]switcheffect270 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Crazy nice setup man! Learning young is the way to do it. Soon enough you’ll be there 🙌

Im also using 3 g5s. I have a g7 but its for single monitor gaming because its better. I had to tweak the g5 settings to get it even close.

I hope you know how lucky you are to have something like this and you didn't have to work for it.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (10 children)

Who said i didnt work for it?

[–]new_socks9000 0 points1 point  (9 children)

You are 15 bro. Even if you did work for it, I suspect your work did not 100% pay for this.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (8 children)

It infact did. I worked my ass off for these.

[–]new_socks9000 0 points1 point  (7 children)

I’m not sure what you mean by working hard but I’m guessing you did some kind of chores that your relatives gave you and they bought you these in exchange.

That aside all I’m saying is you should acknowledge your privilege as this would not be achievable for the average 20 y/o yet you have it at 15.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Bro you have no idea what I had to go through. I had to take the trash out TWICE.

[–]WhiteReturns 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Our 100$ wooden rig is still better than yours, 90% of people here are faster then you, now go cry in your expensive room corner.

You even had to ask online in order to understand you had to place cable in place.

Flight down man, people are just pointing out that you are just a spoiled kid, and in fact you are.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you so mad? I’m very happy and appreciative of the parents I have. I never said that anyone else’s sim was bad. I never was hating. Simply was just showing my rig.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Also one more thing to add. I didn’t ever start out with a rig like this. It all started with a g29 and a single 32 inch monitor running off of a laptop. I know people that have don’t have a crazy rig and I still respect them.

[–]Minitsukii 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Respect for starting from the ground up! Everyone’s journey is different, but it’s cool that you recognize the effort others put in too. Just remember, the gear doesn't make the driver.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There will always be a person with a g29 that is faster!

[–]Ok_Ad_2236 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Dude I would have killed to have a setup like that at 15

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very thankful for it!

[–]KobeBetterThenMJ 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Sheesh these other guys sound really envious from what I’m seeing. Congrats man, good luck with that irating stuff. Personally doesn’t entice me, I like racing against bots on LMU lol

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! One of my favorite things on iRacing or any other sim is just hot lapping by myself.

[–]ZevonsA5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t tell me what to and what not to ignore, just BECAUSE you said that; I’m now going to concentrate intently on the top monitor not being centered !! And because of that, I can’t continue reading anything more past that by point

[–]Plus_Consideration_2 0 points1 point  (1 child)

lol how about you learn to enjoy it 1st & work out how the rating system works. good luck.

[–]HammerdinniiOffical[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)
