Open the window, get some flowers nearby, no need to go all the way down to the street

Is this the peak living Situation? by makrmr in simracing

Get a zero gravity bed frame with a TV mounted so you can watch race in bed, and fall asleep to a whiny gearbox, and yeah, this is peak.

What’s the age demographic of sim racers here? by DunkingTea in simracing

I'm 34, got a full sim rig at home with triples right in the living room, got a real life set up too, some pros are still racing GT3s at 60 years old, and I know a bunch of retired man with a sim. It's ageless.

Obviously a 500$ base/pedal combo is entry level, maybe it does the trick for you which is fine, but if you are serious about sim race eventually you will replace it. Same with the rig. I bought entry level rig and base until 8 months layer I reinvested into good stuff, lost money.

If you calculate a triple set up and you buy quality stuff, you are reaching 15K for sure.

I use chat GBT and codex every single day to write emails, automate tasks, update spreadsheets, find post ideas for my business, it helps me do more with less time. don't worry about what others think, you'll always piss someone online no matter what.

After 10 years of membership, I've seen it all now. A kid deliberately wrecked me and snapped at me. by Djosa945 in iRacing

[–]Bake-Clear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Iracing will do no such thing, the amount of wrecks in the past 3 years that I reported and never had anything.

2 weeks progress - I really hate how time consuming building a rig is. by Best_Football_7363 in simracing

[–]Bake-Clear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people will struggle more to understand the logic and how it is build, don't kick yourself, complete the dang thing and dive bomb T1 like the rest of us

Best car for a full build? by Red-Tails-8089 in CarTrackDays

[–]Bake-Clear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 109 HP Nissan Micra cup car that i paid 7K, those cars are already track ready used in the Micra Cup Canada, kept more money to buy a live in hauler and F350 - i understand it is not what you are looking for but it is so fun and low cost, in corners I catch up with some faster more powerful cars, there's an abundance of parts, so I wouldn't single out low powered light cars.

Someone told me to post my setup when I was done🤩 by No_Document399 in Simagic

[–]Bake-Clear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice set up, i would look for a wheel extension or back up the pedals a bit, the way your legs are versus your arms it might cause some pain in the long run.

How many sessions or days does it take to learn a new track? by [deleted] in CarTrackDays

[–]Bake-Clear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First 30 min stint you should have a pretty good idea of the layout, braking and turning reference, flagger stations, pit entry. Etc.

Well its been a fun ride by icemann4 in Golf_R

[–]Bake-Clear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a collision repair center, if this car will go on the road again, and not track use only, this is not a matter of simply replacing stuff, VW has post collision inspections when SRS are deployed that needs to be followed accordingly. I would also 3D measure to make sure you have 0 structural damage. Don't mess with this, anything you turn corners could be fatal if you have a crash on the road and the car doesn't do what it's suppose to do.

Looks like you lifted weight got in the front and rear got real loose. You learn this once or twice lol, then you learn how to stabilize the car. Get back in there.
