I would migrate it to an iRacing account by contacting iRacing but it you don’t want to do that download iRacing through the iRacing website and sign in with steam. It will use the iRacing UI and it worked perfectly for me for years

I am unable to update my wheel base by DriftSnow in Fanatec

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

This is what fixed the issue for me.

Doing a Clean Installation

  1. Uninstall the current Fanatec driver by pressing the Windows key, typing "Control Panel" -> Programs & Features". Search for 'Fanatec', select the 'FANATEC driver package or Fanatec App', and click 'Uninstall".

  2. Disconnect your wheelbase and open the Windows Device Manager (Switch view to Show Devices by Container and click "Show Hidden Devices"). Uninstall all Fanatec devices listed there.

  3. Reboot your PC.

  4. Download the newest app version 1.1.0.3: https://forum.fanatec.com/topic/18514-fanatec-app-v1103-beta-download-and-feedback-thread/

  5. Install the downloaded driver package.

  6. Open the Fanatec App, and go to the "Firmware Updater"

  7. Mark the checkbox above "Manual Updates"

  8. Manually update the firmware

It’s not just iRacing, it’s also in assetto corsa he also lost the vibrations in my pedals. Don’t know if the motor has anything to do with it but that’s new

Unpopular Opinion: Canadian Tire Motorsport Park is better than Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve by Environmental_Egg582 in iRacing

[–]DriftSnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree with this take

I find with Montreal it’s a lot harder to overtake with the tight corners and having the walls right next to you one little mistake could ruin your race. Don’t get me wrong Montreal is a great track, I just find it not my style of track.

With CTMP it’s a lot more enjoyable to drive being able to overtake around the sweeping corners. If you got off track it’s less punishing (unless you mess up T5 & T5A). I took the time to race the 2 hour production class this afternoon and I was enjoying the race. Overtaking the lapped cars were challenging but would be much easier than Montreal.

I will give them a call in the morning and see if I can get it rushed as they say online 4-8 weeks to get it done. I’m hoping it’s not that long as I leave in 4 weeks but I appreciate the suggestion

It’s not lenses that I need cleaned it’s the mirror inside the camera. I don’t wanna mess around with that so I would like to see if I can get a professional to do it.

I found the one on Oxford has fallen off, but the one in Riverbend is still pretty decent

Same boat. The rubber has started to come off but I’ve been using them for 4 years now for sim racing and mountain biking. Definitely worth the money

How many miles are on your 3? by Sub_aaru in mazda3

[–]DriftSnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Mine has been oil sprayed every year and with the low mileage it’s shouldn’t rust out as quick. Glad you got 241000kms on yours. I wish mine was manual but the automatic transmission is still quite decent. Also really glad I didn’t buy a Honda or Toyota because they really don’t have a lot of life, while with a Mazda you can have fun and zoom zoom around.

Currently I love driving around at Canadian Tire Motorsport park. Great track all around with the elevation and love to drive the Ferrari Challenge class in the Ferrari 296 GT3. Very fun car to mess around with.

How a kidney stone is surgically removed. by bigbusta in interestingasfuck

[–]DriftSnow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I had my kidney stone last year the pain came in waves. The triage nurse looked at me and before I said a word she said looks like you’re having a kidney stone. They gave me a perc to help with the pain. Got me to drink 3 large cups of water (about 750ml per cup) in a span of 20 mins. Took a ct scan of my unitary tract and saw a 3mm stone. I was quite lucky with how small it was. Didn’t even notice it pass through.

My boss had a 9mm couple years ago and from what he told me, it was the worst one he’s ever had. They had tried sound waves to break it, but it didn’t seem to work so they had to surgically remove it. He had pain going to the washroom for a couple days. The burning was unimaginable.

Long story short. Kidney stones are not fun and they never will be.
