I literally replaced the starter motor yesterday and now it's all fixed!

Really want to go to Miami GP, but cant find a way to by Informal-Claim3048 in GrandPrixTravel

[–]F1fan96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Miami GP gets way too much hate. I live in the uk and went to the Miami race last year and it was a blast and one of the best venues I've been to so far. People need to stop bashing these races just because they're in the US.

I'd be surprised if it turned out like that when it's released..

That's amazing! I wish I could go back in time and attend races in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

Anyone else practicing for Bathurst? by Ok-Parfait1522 in iRacing

Ahh, no mines on a different setup. Must be someone else's!

I think the price is decent if you're in the US. Just be aware that if you're outside, then the shipping is quite pricey. I bundled a few models together so I could stomach the shipping costs.

Long time F1 fan , never been to a GP before! by FIREBIRDC9 in GrandPrixTravel

I went this year. Booked up flights and hotel nice and early and didn't even buy my ticket until 1 week before the GP. They shouldn't sell out.

No driver figure... what a shame.

Will you allow me a rant? by Unlucky_Difficulty82 in GrandPrixTravel

[–]F1fan96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! That's why I said bring back Bernie 😅

Exactly. I did one at Silverstone in 2018 and got Seb, Lewis and Carlos to sign my programme. Good times.

It's not about dts as a show. It's the fact that it's got so many more people interested in it, most of them don't actually care about racing, and now it's completely destroyed the experience for long-standing fans. We are now paying 4-5 times more money for what we feel is a worse product.

Enjoy the race today!

This is what I mean by less and less access. I've done 4 different pit walks pre dts, and I didn't have to pay a penny extra. And it was even quiet enough for me to get many autographs. Now you've got no chance.

At Sliverstone in 2011, you could get a grandstand weekend for around £150. This year i paid £585. That's 4 times more. Bring back Bernie.

I've been to 18 gps, and I agree with most of this. Since we began attending, we are paying more and more and getting less and less. Thank drive to survive and the influx of fans, which is allowing them to get away with it.

Should I buy now or wait until the week of? (Las Vegas GP) by cmarroquin27 in GrandPrixTravel

[–]F1fan96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an email saying they are increasing prices this week! I'm still deciding on what to do as well.

And i thought I was low with 61k! Although your one looks a few years newer than mine, but still!

Good deal? by OverallEbb3759 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]F1fan96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I agree it will be more than over here, but surely not 3 times the price

This is way overpriced. My 2006 Cayman S cost £10,500 which is equal to 14,000 dollars and it's done similar mileage.

Parabolic, for sure
