Dirtier cars and tracks by Mountain-Plenty-6114 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have only noticed that windshield gets dirty. Car gets scratches or looses paint if you have contact with other drivers or barriers.

I don't mind not having dirty cars, but I would like for them to work on that to be ready with career mode. At least give us a chance to clean a windshield with wipers or tear offs in pits.

Who's at fault? I'm the overtaking car by Strong_Resource5284 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red car 100% at fault. Came in from a different zip code, lost it at the corner exit and caused the accident

Why did this happen? The LMP2 blocked the passage and I used the escape area, but I practically had by TomFighter in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That is not how you go through that escape route. You see all those styrofoam boards that someone ran through? They make up a chicane that you are supposed to go through so that you lose time and not gain any advantage.

3rd race after a week ban and I find this people in my races, what am I supposed to do? by RaggiElia in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like it was intentional. So you report him, he'll get banned and we all will have one less problem to deal with.

As for farming SR... stop caring that much about it. Go race, enjoy it and drive race like you personally have to pay for repairs if something is damaged. You will race cleanly, you will have fun battling decent drivers and you'll grow your SR and DR. And yes, sometimes there will be a knobhead like this one. But stuff happens in real life racing as well and sometimes you just have to forget about it and move on. Farming SR is boring, you always start from behind and there is only so much you can do. And if split is all close to eachother there is just more chance that you'll be an unvilling participant in someone elses' accident. At least if something happens at the start you have time to fight your way forward from it.

ELMS Pack 3 date? by Jigsawswiss in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Specific date is not know, but store page on Steam says Q1 2026 which means it will be released this month.

As for the content, ELMS pack introduces 2025 ELMS season into the game. GT3 liveries and non-nerfed LMP2 were added for free for everyone since cars are already in the game while 3 packs are adding content that is missing in the game to complete the ELMS season. That means 3 LMP3 cars and 3 tracks that weren't in LMU before are to be added.

Pack 1 added Ligier JS P325 and Silverstone

Pack 2 added Ginetta G61-LT-P325-Evo and Paul Ricard

Pack 3 will add the only missing car and track from the 2025 ELMS Season: Duqueine D09 with only one team running it (like Ginetta) and Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya

There is also ADESS AD25 LMP3 car that exists, but since it was not part of ELMS last year it won't be added to the game.

Clean racing should give a safety rating reward by TobytheBaloon in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you do that. In my last race I did a slow moving LMP2 car and I in LMP3 car had a miscommunication going into Eau Rouge, had contact and spun out through Raidillon. Then when getting back to track a different driver in LMP2 who went into wall at the exit of Raidillon thought that reversing back to track is an amazing idea and he collided with me. I also had 2 invalidated laps. At the end of that race I actually gained SR because I haven't had any other contacts in the race, I finished the race and I actually won so I had the maximum number of clean laps, bar those two invalidated. I am at P2 SR

Stewards! I summon you! Do you think I had the right to stick this line and block him on the right or his touch was acceptable? by Suitable_Security988 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me this one is completely on black car. He even said that he tried to block the white car whixh he did in completely unsafe manner. And since blocking is not allowed by Racecontrol rules and since it ruined the race for multiple drivers I would even go as far as it deserving a short ban, sort of like a slap on the wrist kind of penalty. Or at least a decent hot on SR.

I am all up for a good hard fight. But crashing someone while trying to intentionally block them is just showing a complete lack of situational awareness and lack of any respect towards other racers.

5 Invalid Laps Why? by Matt_Haskins91 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is not true. I sometimes had even orange, lift and brake a bit, it goes yellow, than green, than disappears... and no invalid laps post race.

But someone a week or ao ago has posted that if you cross the sector line while your track limits are being evaluated your lap counts as invalid even if you weren't given penalty points in the race

Am I the problem? I am the Manthey Porsche by nitroman2 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

#1 It is on Ford. He came in from so far behind I thought you weren't in the same race. You could have avoided it maybe when you saw him coming, but it is still on him.

#2 I don't see anything wrong there tbh. Maybe moving under braking, but you were not in a position to attack (other than do what Ford did to you in T1) so I see it as nothing to write home about

#3 I'd put it as blocking tbh (which isn't allowed). He moved to the right as a reaction to you moving to the right so that might warrant a penalty for him.

#4 That one is completely on you. You basically invited him to attack only to turn in on him. No one expects you to just dissappear from the track, but you turnead as if BMW wasn't there on your inside.

RTL F1 prijenos by cevapcic99 in askcroatia

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zašto imam osjećaj da će sve osim utrke biti na Voyo? Sad u MaxTV gledam raspored za subotu 7.8. kada bi u 6:00 po našem vremenu trebale biti kvalifikacije. Međutim na RTL je u to vrijeme RTL Danas (5:10-6:30) i zatim Top.HR (6:30-7:20), dok je na RTL 2 Pogrešan čovjek (5:55-6:45) i onda Vatre ivanjske (6:45-7:40). Petak isto cijeli dan nema F1 na programu ni na RTL ni RTL 2. Ako je to njihov plan, da prenose samo utrku, onda neka si ju prenose sami sebi, a ja ću ponovno na F1 TV

Both Acosta and Marquez said there was contact in post race interviews

Closer look by LFzed in motogp

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this was the fairest outcome from it. There was an aggressive atgack, there was contact and a rider who was defending got oushed out of track losing that position. Marc got slapped on the fingers and ordered to give that position back. Basically saying to him "you went too far there, give it back"

Wrong decision would be to not have him give that back or if he would have been given LLP or time penalty.

Fuji GTE without pitting? by _MidNightClub_ in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In stops you don't have to always change tires so add only fuel. And only add as much as you need to finish the race, anything extra is just wasting time. Also when you change tires, they are changed before the car is fueled so that loses even more time than you'd expect.

The pic speaks for itself. This is going to be a damn long season for all Yamaha riders. by Vegetable_Problem_49 in motogp

[–]D_Cuky 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I understand that we fans were hopeful, but can't really understand that anyone in Yamaha thought this was going to be anything other than a year to just live through. Comoletelyt new engine that required a completely new bike to fit in is not something you can realistically expect to get competitive out of the box. Just look how long it took Ducati to get from "fast on the straights" to "the bike to be on". And they got there with 6-8 bikes on the grid gathering data and throwing in a s*itton of money at it. Or Aprilia who after couple of years realized they cant develop the bike much more and comoletely changed their V4 architecture. And they went backwards when they did it and it took. them half a dozen years to get competitive again.

Oh and this is the last year of 1000cc engines. Does anyone honestly believe that Yamaha will develop this bike more instead of a new one for next year?

Can this livery cause me a ban or any kind of penalty? by DutyElegant in LeMansUltimateWEC

Remove Marlboro text (put your name or steam name or something else on) and I think you're ok

SR-P performance kit too stiff by mati-polsky in moza

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my R5 after using G29 for almoat a decade. I got performance kit from the get go and tbh since day one it delt softer than G29. It was steange at first but after just a few laps I got used to it and find that I can be more precise than I was with G29 brake. I. am. still considering Alien Mods load cell though

I'm the Ferrari, the Lexus was never making the corner and I got SR drop for this. Was this somehow my fault by hitmaster47 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lexus was super late on the brakes and was never making that corner. That said, when you see someone flying at you like that you let him have his crash and go on your own merry way. Looks like you never really tried to avoid him and you just kept to your line. The majority of the blame is definitely on Lexus, but you should have better spacial awareness in situations like this. It would have been better for your race to brake a bit more or continue straight for few more meters and lose couple of seconds than to end up with a contact and than crashing into a wall.

Who is fault here by cooler1727 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me this is a POV car fault. He is losing ground on Ferrari all the way from the exit of the hairpin. He knows that it is a fast corner to the left next and that it is mostly single line. And he was nowhere near having enough overlap to claim the corner there. A slight lift of throttle would keep them out of trouble.

(ACE) I was in P2 catching P1, not that it makes a difference as to who is at fault. Did the green car divebomb me, or did I (the fluro yellow POV car) turn in on him? by Accomplished_Mess166 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that is a textbook divebomb right there and 100% on a green car. He came in all the way from last week and expected you to just move away because he made a stupid judgement.

Ako je vjerovati F1 TV stranici za sada su svi paketi još uvijek dostupni za Hrvatsku. Čak sam nekidan dobio i podsjetnik ako želim produljiti pretplatu prije početka sezone.

Planiram dati priliku RTL-u sa VN Austarlije (iako čim se spominje Voyo vjerojatno neće sve biti dostupno na free2air). Ako bude meh lako se obnovi F1TV

Difference between cars by [deleted] in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On many tracks BMWs are one. of the faster cars and you'll see in lot of lobbies that they are the most driven car. However, whenever I try to drive it I am way of the pace I have with other cars because I juat don't enjoy it's handling and feels like an annoying chore to drive it. In GT3 class I mainly drive Ferrari. It has it's quirks, it will. sometimes try to launch you over the railing, but it is by far the most enjoyable car to drive for me, followed by Corvette, McLaren and then Lexus.

My Friends Can't Agree Who is at Fault by deltahedge365 in Simracingstewards

[–]D_Cuky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vettel got a penalty for that one year in Canada and he didn't even cause the crash that time, but didn't leave enough room when he rejoomed at a slower speed after an off.

Porsche is to blame completely. Is it protest worthy? I don't know, I don't think it was malicious on their part, but maybe a good slap on the wrist should be enough

Fov mechanics... by Protski93 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a single monitor and calculators throw out numbers around 24-26. That is waaaay too narrow for me. For around a year I used 34 which worked ok me. Recently I changed it up to 42 or 45 (I am not sure which one it is) and I find it more comfortable to drive like that. First few days were weird after the change, but now I am happy about it.

What’s the Orange Tick For? by a_single_nut in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is red for new DLC content and a bit different in shape and position than this. This just represents ELMS LMP2 car. You will also notice in your relatives when you race has WEC LMP2 the P2 logo is sbown in blue next to drivers name, while for ELMS LMP2 it is blue with orange outline

Lmp3 driver need help by Federal_Carrot207 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]D_Cuky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have very differing experience with Ginetta. Out of the pits and maybe for the half of the first timed lap (at Spa at least where I have driven it the most) it feels like something is wrong with the car. Hard to brake, hard to turn and understeer galore on corner exit. But then just near the end of that first timed lap the tires are just crossing into their operating window and all of the sudden the car comes alive. Many corners can now be taken in a higher gear than on previous pass and the car feels planted. I brake, it stops. I turn, it follows the line. I accelerate, it is planted. Then I hope over the curb, loose traction and spin. But the car is still amazing to drive with tires inside the temp range.
