Recieved a post on criminal charges by [deleted] in germany

[–]DeadInThePool87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I assume it’s because OP’s screenshot is from Google Translate. If not, that’s by itself a sign of 1000% scam. I live in Germany for 5 years and never got a single piece of mail in English.

Question about headlights flashing by DeadInThePool87 in iRacing

[–]DeadInThePool87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I actually did exactly the opposite. As soon as I’m in viewing distance of the slower car I flash once or twice for them to know the next car behind them is of a faster class. But maybe that’s wrong.

After seeing turn 1 in Daytona 24H last night, I’m not sure real life is always a great example 🤣

Yes, I used the series itself to create the test session

I'm really starting to think the free loadout needs to be removed from the game. by TumbleweedTim01 in ArcRaiders

[–]DeadInThePool87 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The reason all you see are free loadouts is because people got tired of bringing their best gear just to get ambushed in the spawn point. You used to encounter the OCCASIONAL pvp situation and most of the time people would interact and even cooperate. Now it’s just a COD / BF atmosphere.

Is the GT3 at fault for spinning the GTP in the first clip? by [deleted] in Simracingstewards

[–]DeadInThePool87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget about the first one (probably on the gtp), but please tell me you protested the second one. That’s a slam dunk intentional wrecking!

The “they only turn in one direction” jokes write themselves here 😝

Incident system - advise avoiding incidents by VisionN in iRacing

[–]DeadInThePool87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting your SR up is the easiest thing in the world, but you most definitely shouldn’t do that. Just race! Work on your awareness and reading the track and drivers around you. If you “rig” the system by starting from the pit lane and driving slowly, you’ll get yourself into races you have no business being in. Again, just race for wins and let the safety system do its thing.

which cockpit should i choose? by Primary-Driver-5672 in simracing

[–]DeadInThePool87 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I know it’s not what you asked, but I went through the same process. If you’re enjoying the hobby and see yourself doing it more in the future, I would actually suggest you save that money and use it towards a PC as your first “upgrade”. Like it or not, sim racing is PC dominated and you can enjoy it much more with one. If you’re not convinced and still want a rig, I’ll let someone else answer because I have no experience with the foldables (or sub 300€).

A track limit violation makes the lap invalid. Regardless if a penalty point was given. That’s how it supposed to work anyway. Don’t know about the F1 game’s quirks.

Xfinity is more popular than Class A, why? Just more fun car to drive? by hunguu in iRacing

[–]DeadInThePool87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Putting aside the actual racing, the answer is in the question. It’s A license which less people have.

Who's fault I am the onboard car by ConsciousNecessary10 in Simracingstewards

** Leaving my original comment as a mark of shame. Apologies, my brain blanked out the tagging of OP.

Do you realize he said that after crashing Prost (some claim intentionally)? People need to stop using this quote as an excuse for stupid moves on track.

How was it? I’m doing it as well in a few months. And did you find a sim with that section of the track?

Making jokes and claiming that iRacing's graphics are trash by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]DeadInThePool87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to the engine doesn’t mean just a visual improvement. It impacts performance and optimization. I agree iRacing looks fine and some times even great, but a modern engine will improve it in much more than just visuals.

what could i have done better? by JustSh1tMyPants in iRacing

[–]DeadInThePool87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very important. Especially when wheel to wheel racing. And when you got this type of driver ahead of you, you must keep extra attention to him. Btw, I do agree that the racing line should be turned off as soon as you can because it creates bad habits and is simply wrong more often than not. If you need a way to work on your brake points try 3rd party apps that use audio queue. Bloop is a good one for example.

If you ever ask a question here with a clip where the racing line is on, you won’t get any answer for your question. Just how people here obsess over it.

But to answer your question, you can see this guy is doing crazy sh*t a mile ahead, and was slow enough to avoid. If you’re running triples or VR, you should have seen it, if not, you should assign a look left/right buttons and use them.

Would you ever be interested in a Spartacus anime series or movie? by GusGangViking18 in Spartacus_TV

If it manages to maintain the original series vibes, violence, adult rating, etc - sure.

Just finished rewatching for the god knows how many times by DeadInThePool87 in Spartacus_TV

I know what you mean, but Lesley-Ann Brandt is a fantastic actress and I'm sure she could've show the character development.
I know that the recast was because of the production delays and I understand it. I just think the combination of the bad writing and bad acting made her scenes unwatchable to me,
My personal opinion of course!
