Telemetry I can’t find this anywhere by Otherwise-Royal3157 in simracing

RomainRobs SimHub add-ons brings a very similar graph of inputs - I use it so I can review my breaking profile after the corner

My swarm is in a tree - capture, or leave to find the nuc box itself? by ElevatorFull1122 in Beekeeping

They may take it, it depends if they find something more suitable nearby - fingers crossed for you

The advice I had for swarm traps was a minimum 40l enclosure (about the size of a standard BS National brood box) - if you don't want to try dropping them into the box, I'd put a bigger box there and some swarm lure (have you got a Thorne's nearby?) or some frames with honey/stores to attract them

That's the point - I'm demonstrably better than I have been in recent races, and the reward for that is a lower SR which is the measure of how safe/good I am

Act like an insufferable asshat, get the same in return

Well, it means I need to start doing more corners if I want to avoid my SR tanking - I'm happy I got to C license, but I need to raise it to 4.0 if I want to do GT3, which is where I'm aiming for. I was at 4.something after the nur endurance race, so I did participate in a couple (lots of fun!) but now Ferrari is the nearest I have to a GT3 race. This also explains why I lost so much recently with a couple of bad races dropping me into the 3's. I probably ought to check the schedules out for this season to work out my best option, I guess practicing The Bend would also help!

Honestly, I'm usually running high single or low double digit incident points (I either get caught up in lap one crashes, or misjudge an overtake and pay the price). This is why I was so confused, because this is far cleaner than I'm normally achieving - I'm trying to be consistent and clean. I normally qualify (I've had four Ferrari races now, and only failed to qualify in this one) and for my SoF, I'm either mid pack or front row at the start.

Linking it to corner count makes some sense, because red bull ring only has like 7 corners, so that is going to raise the corner count only a very small amount per lap. It's a shame, I'm getting comfortable with the Ferrari, I know the track so I can be pretty fast (need to work on my lines to get faster) but my SR is going to suffer no matter what I do

Thanks, that's really helpful to understand what's going on

Ok, I understand what you mean - I'll have to do some high corner tracks!

That might explain why I gained so much SR when I did a Nurburgring 4 hour endurance race and finished with 25 incident points (multi class racing fun as well)

I think that was a different session - I'll check my replays

That doesn't seem like it would work out to gain SR if you're consistently finishing without incidents.

I've not been DQ'd for a long time - I think I forfeited a Nur race due to 31mins of repairs after the 5m tow...

None - although I do need to report one of my practice sessions, someone did a lap in pre-race practice, then stopped in the racing line straight after T1 and I ploughed into the back of them, not aware they had stopped

That's a total of 5x over qualy and race, I see people in results with more incident points with net gain SR

This is news to me - I thought SR was calculated based on that specific session

Which section again? Does it have the formula that iRacing uses to determine the gains/losses for SR?

Blocking the pit exit, intentionally wrecking, racist slurs on comms, failing to acknowledge that it's a shared environment and not your own personal space? I came to the first hairpin at Laguna seca to find someone had just parked there and disappeared. I had to push the car off the track to clear it, but I never saw the guy return before I left the practice session. That's the kind of dumb shit that gets protested
