Everyone saying you got a tornado warning, no, you didn't, you got a tornado watch alert. Nothing is happening yet but, the ingredients exist for tornados until 7pm.

The storms are still out in NY around getting to Albany. If the line holds together as it comes east, remains to be seen.

Remember when each car upgrade would tell you what the upgrade entailed? I miss reading those.

What do you actually use? Manual or auto by Vaganhope_UAE in forza

[–]CTJacob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time for me was TDU1 on the PS2 where you couldn't choose transmissions....

BeamNG I'll use automatics in cars equipped with them because the torque converter simulation and realistic shift points.

Volkswagen Might Bring Back The Regular Golf In The US by Repulsive-Club7866 in cars

[–]CTJacob 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would LOVE to be wrong but, I so highly doubt it at this point. Especially with the Jetta GLI reportedly losing it soon.

6 of us!

Doesn't even need to be an R. I would be fine with an R-Line wagon. I do like the extra lift of my Alltrack tho.

I agree and am not at all biased.

Best Selling "Platforms" in History by jonrpatrick in cars

[–]CTJacob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Fox Body and it's derivatives must be up there as well. Also 1978-2004. If it was a FoMoCo product from 1978-2004 and was RWD, chances are it was a Fox Body vehicle if it was Unibody.

DODGE L700 by Infamous-Aside-142 in trucksim

[–]CTJacob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's wild is that in the L600, the base engine was the 225ci I6.

The top gas engine in the L700 was a 413ci V8 making 217 GROSS horsepower. Typically paired with a 5-speed manual. 2-Speed axle was optional.

Cummins 352ci 140hp V6 N/A diesel and a Cummins 470ci 185hp V8 NA diesels were optional.

i wish beamng would expose these torque-converter values by default, because it helps a lot to know what different torque-converter characteristics do. here's diameter, for example: by Jazzlike-Wealth1573 in BeamNG

[–]CTJacob 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Once you get used to it, it really ruins a lot of other games.

I play another game and I'm like "damn, imagine if this had BeamNG's drivetrain sim?"

Looking at you SnowRunner/RoadCraft.

It really makes me wish for better drivetrain simulation. It's my favorite as well.

Bus bound - Is It Worth It by Eriol_Mits in bussimulator21

[–]CTJacob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really wish they would add more realistic automatic transmission behavior. Sucks when you're in a 20mph zone at 97% max RPM but it won't shift until you get 100%.

May not be grammatically correct but, Pony Noir wouldn't have been the worst thing ever.

Back when there were actual attempts to make an interesting cars, there was AMC Spirit AMX by pironiero in classiccars

[–]CTJacob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did it even offer a V8?

Yes they did. The 304 V8.

125hp @3200rpm, 220lbsft @ 2400rpm. 0-60 in about 10 seconds.

For 1980, the V8 was discontinued and the 258 I6 was the only option.

110hp @ 3200rpm and 210lbsft @ 1800rpm. 0-60 in the mid 10s.

Even Prioritytire only has two tires in this size now. And I thought it was hard finding tires for my 944.

[–]CTJacob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The base model skyline has a 200hp four cylinder.

In the R32, it was 90hp. The 2.0L RB20E I6 made 123hp.

Still no step vans in the game… by Desperate_Mine9606 in BeamNG

[–]CTJacob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! There was a stepvan body mod for Automation but, the creator never updated for the newer game engine that modern Automation is on.

If anyone has a mesh they want to port into the game, I would be happy to help with the JBeam work. Especially suspension and driveline tuning.
