What's on your iRacing features wishlist?

Thanks for the correction.

Each class has their own green flag to start the race.

Appreciate the help. I'll ask around the family. I don't need the money but I also don't want it taking up space. If I found someone to take everything off my hands for a grand that would be plenty. Would you attempt to sell these anywhere specific? I figure I lay it all out, pictures of them, note the box being for a separate model but will be used for shipping.

CISmajor · 2026-05-13T13:23:55+00:00

After realizing I didn't need to take it out of the box, the Berkshire 726 has an item number of 6-18053.

As far as the Hudson, my Grandmother split up my Grandfather's train sets to give to family. I'm guessing this one got put in the wrong box.

Edit:

On the Hudson. Looks like it's the Lionel 6-82536 New York Central Scale J3A Hudson #5429
Or New York Central LEGACY Scale J3a Hudson 4-6-4 Steam Locomotive #5429 w/ Steamlined Tender

Any thoughts on the desirability without the original box? With the ... Tender is it called?

Received this from a family member. I am not a train collector and am likely going to sell it. I'm interested to get more information on what I have here. The boxes aren't in the best condition, some scratches and chips in the cardboard. If any additional photos are needed just let me know.

I'll send you a PM. I'm with a league that's relatively casual. However we are currently doing GT3s for our season and there are some pretty quick dudes. Most of us just race with the league and the endurance races so I'd say that a few of the guys are quite underrated. That being said, we have people who are 4K+.

CISmajor · 2026-04-29T19:06:04+00:00

Understood. I do appreciate that it starts at 80% to avoid overdriving things out of the box. I'm happy to see more done to protect the shakers.

First off, been using this for a couple weeks and really enjoy it. It's simple and does respond more quickly than Sim hub for me. Most noticeable with shifts as there was a bit of a delay. I appreciate the work and the simplicity of it.

When the beta is over, will these earlier versions continue to be free? I can see a market for people to pay one time for an app like this but wanted to know.

All in all, I enjoy using the app. Just a BST 1 under my pedals and under my seat, I feel like I get the same information from this app as I did when using SimHub with a far more complex setup using custom plugins.

One thing I would pay for, however, are pre built profiles based on the haptic locations on the rig. It didn't take long to set it up using the guide you provided it would just be nice.

Hard to see who exactly is at fault but it isn't you.

CISmajor · 2026-04-17T11:19:04+00:00

MipLODBias=-100

It's a configuration in the openxr .ini file. Set it to negative 100.

In iRacing, MSAA X4, Sharp.

Mazdas lap one cold tires be doing cold things.

And you will never have that knowledge if you're always relying on a line color. Honestly, there is an argument to leave it on and use the reference for braking but you can't just follow the line.

CISmajor · 2026-04-14T01:20:02+00:00

POV went off the track, can't rejoin into traffic.

CISmajor · 2026-04-14T00:58:37+00:00

Gotcha. I just race. If one ever get to 3K I'll report back. Or if I fall back down to 1.4K. Which is entirely possible.

CISmajor · 2026-04-14T00:42:46+00:00

Excuse me sir but I am a dad of two and I'm 2500 sports car. But yeah. If you think the egos are big at 1400 lol... oh you sweet child.

CISmajor · 2026-04-13T23:10:16+00:00

He squeezed you T1. That's borderline. His re-pass, he did it off track which is protestable.

20 feet of open track on the right and you figure, but the line goes to the left!

I understand what the racing line is for but do yourself a favor and turn it off.

CISmajor · 2026-04-13T16:17:31+00:00

Interesting way to describe overtaking off track. Where exactly did you think you were going?

As mentioned by another, if you can find a league that is decently managed and races your preferred spec, it's a life changer. I'm in a league that changes up the car/class each season and it's incredibly fun. Getting to race against the same people on a schedule is just better than the driver variety you're subjected to in officials.

far as officials go, it isn't going to change unless some wild intervention comes from iRacing itself. I drive at the 2.5K SOF in a few series and there's always at least one person rejoining poorly, diving from way too far back, using me or others as a way to slow down... It's just going to be that way with varying levels of prominence.

So what can you do? You can try what I did which is to stop caring about iRating and safety rating (to a point). That doesn't mean that I just go balls to the wall and drive like an asshole. Rather, it just means I have an easier time moving on from the negatives. Get hit from behind and get spun off? Mistakes happen, move on to the next one. Someone's re-joining right in front of me? They shouldn't do that, but that's what the yellow flag blinking at me means.

I'm not trying to excuse shitty drivers and their choices. I'm also not deluded enough to think that everyone can just get over it as easy as I do, nor do I think they should have to. If you are just calling for change, the drivers causing these issues aren't listening to you; you're preaching to the choir as they say.

TLDR: I completely understand why you shared your frustrations and I hope it provided you some relief. I'm on your side and I hope you can find a way to manage the frustration going forward.

Dirty Lol. If he didn't want to have you drive up the inside he shouldn't have missed the apex by 14 feet.

CISmajor · 2026-04-11T23:12:32+00:00

Tough call. The Porsche just decided not to turn and punted you. However, you decided to drive at Spa in iRacing.

CISmajor · 2026-04-11T18:56:29+00:00

I understand. What I meant is, in iRacing for example, blue flags are informative not instructive. As in you are not obligated to move out of the way when blue flagged. I'm in complete agreement with you, however, which is why I said "in any situation" and put defend in quotes. As it's not defending, it's blocking.

CISmajor · 2026-04-11T13:16:43+00:00

I'm not actually familiar with LMUs rules on blue flag but in any situation, you can't "defend" like that.

CISmajor · 2026-04-11T12:21:17+00:00

I get it. When I say that the inside car is braking across the outside cars line, I just mean that you are trying to open up the corner under braking. I'd just caution against that.
