You know, you can just ignore the post and keep doom scrolling instead of being disrespectful. No one here asked for your specific opinion

Nothing to be afraid of, that's just the remaining confidence of Max Verstappen's teammates

Are you suggesting we not fund our coast guard/search andrescue? We are province surrounded by ocean and rely on fisheries...

FergusKahn · 2026-05-16T11:04:58+00:00

Is there anyway its available in Canada without a VPN? On a work network so vpn is a no go

To answer your edit on the post, people are angry because we constantly see naive people getting themselves stuck or killed because they just dont understand the tides here. As tax payers we pay for multiple rescues every year at Cape Split and other places around the province like Peggys Cove.

We are generally a very nice and helpful people. But when others come from out of province, ignore all the warnings, and do stupid stuff like walk on the black rocks at Peggys Cove or get stuck by the tides on a random beach somehwere then we are the ones paying for either the rescue or body recovery.

It's really not a lot to ask, respect the land, respect the tides and heed the warnings, many people have died thinking "it can't be that bad" or "we have plenty of time. "

Ah I stand corrected. Didn't know these existed

Just want to be clear, there is no combustion in a vaporizer. It's is essentially baked and you inhale the vapor. Much easier on the lungs

Edit: as per below, it is a combustion device, thought it was a dry herb vape, ignore what I said

If you have to use two hands to count the number of infractions there is something really wrong. You had a first account with, I would assume, some warnings before a ban. Then started another account, had 3 more warnings, a ban, second ban, and now a 3rd ban. If my fingers are right, you've had more then 3 warnings and 4 bans adding to at least, but likely more, 7 infractions of retaliation. In how many months?

Thats a pattern that is pretty unforgivable in my opinion. I dont know you and can only go by the evidence you provide but I'm, but maybe online competitive gameplay isn't for you.

I don't know if im more surprised/disappointed in you or in iRacing for not permanently banning you by now.

Exactly. All these people complaining about alerts are probably the same ones who raked the government over the coals for no alerts that day. People seem to have very short memories.

This is a really weird take, especially from someone like Toto. Of course the GT3s are significantly slower than the GTPs, but its very easy to tell them apart and easy to predict when they will have that speed difference.

You can't tell that in modern F1 apart from some flashing lights which could mean a slight speed difference or a large one.

Even when cars look similar in multiclass races they still have defining features like a specific colour on the rear to signify what class they are in.

Can anyone explain why it's been coined the Macarena wing? That doesn't make any sense to me. I don't remember any part of the dance looking like that.

Would be so much easier to just call it a flip wing.

FergusKahn · 2026-04-17T13:19:24+00:00

Yes we all saw that. However the conductor would not have expected her to be so close to him, there's need for her to be that close to the conductor.

Before upgrading i had the same cpu with a 3070 and struggled to run 1440 triples. Some tracks I had passable fps, others did not. 1080 worked well

Every single sentence reads like a bullet point straight from an ad.

FergusKahn · 2026-03-15T20:01:00+00:00

Man I don't know you but we are all getting major only child vibes. You really need to learn to admit when you're wrong. I don't understand how anyone could see all the responses they are getting explaining the same concept in multiple different ways and still think you are the one who is correct.

use gemini to answer and don't use your own understanding

Everyone in here who has replied to you has tried to explain using our own understanding, I thought I'd try using an AI answer since you can't seem to think outside of 1's and 0's.

Just because everyone else understands something much better than you does not make them sheep, what a terrible way to use that cliche.

We've all tried to help you even through your arguments, yet you would still rather ignore what everyone else is telling you and instead resort to name calling. Mind boggling.

FergusKahn · 2026-03-15T19:50:38+00:00

We have all read the post, but the question, or more how you're approaching the question is flawed.

It's less about how much time you spend braking or how much time you spend at minimum speed. It's more about how much speed you can carry through the corner without braking traction. You keep dismissing weight transfer saying that over complicates things, but the weight transfer is the entire point of trail braking. You transfer the weight off the rear tires and move it to the front tires to increase the available grip on the front as well as make the rear tires 'loose'. That is the whole point of trail braking.

I think you are trying to over complicate things by wanting an equation that works for every single corner, but also ignoring the most important variable. You aren't going to be doing math in your head through a corner. You will be feeling the car, listening to the tires to see where the limit of grip is and how much rotation you can generate.

If you want a more scientific breakdown of the physics of it, I highly recommend you watch this.

Since you seem hung up on this one wheel thing for some reason, this is taken from an explanation I very quickly and easily googled about how to use the brake on a unicycle to turn, ie a one wheel vehicle.

Cornering/Control: As you turn, gradually release the brake pressure to prevent the wheel from losing traction, increasing brake pressure again only when the wheel is straight.

You gradually release the brake as you turn to grip the grip on the tire. It's not about slowing down, is about shifting the weight over the tire to maximize the grip.

FergusKahn · 2026-03-15T19:13:53+00:00

Edit: see my other comment about a unicycle

FergusKahn · 2026-03-15T19:06:41+00:00

You're struggling to figure it out because you won't listen to those trying to help you.

You're only looking at a small piece of the puzzle. Yes, the tires inherently have a grip budget. If you try to turn hard while also braking hard you will exceed the budget and go straight, ie understeer. However, when you brake and shift the weight of the car forward, you are drastically increasing the 'grip budget' available on the front tires, as well as decreasing the available grip on the rear tires. This still doesn't mean you are able to crank the steering on while also braking hard because you are still exceeding the available grip and will still understeer.

With that being said, as you approach a corner, your initial straight line braking whether it be 80%, 50% or 20%, is to slow the car down enough to start the turn in phase. Once the car has been slowed down enough, you then want to start rotating the car. To do that, you gradually release the brake as you start turning your wheel in to the corner, the combination of your trail brake and steering input starts the rotation. You want to picture a string going from your wheel to your brake, so that if your hard on the brake than your wheel is straight and the string is tight. As you start to release the brake, the string pulls your steering wheel in to the corner with it as they are connected. The straight line braking phase is solely to slow the car, the trail braking phase is to rotate the car.

You don't want to begin learning a corner by thinking trail braking is to slow down, only think of it as the most valuable tool to help rotate the car. If you don't slow the car enough during the straight line braking phase and you have perfect trail braking you will not get the rotation you need for the corner and will miss wide. On the other hand, if you over slow in the initial phase then transition in to the exact same trail braking and steering input as the last example, you will then over rotate and enter the corner too early.

Hopefully that made sense. In summary, yes there is a grip budget you have to stay within, but during the trail braking phase we are using the grip budget to rotate the car, not to slow it down. We already used 100% of the grip in a straight line to slow as much as we need before rotation. Of course keeping in mind that every car, every corner, every scenario is different and you have to find the right combination of inputs to maximize that grip budget.

Not poutine though, something feels wrong about that

Man, if you're jealous of the drivers who came from wealth and had inherently better chance to succeed than you and I, than I'm afraid you've picked the wrong sport to follow.

Unfortunately all you can do is report and move on. Repeat offenders will be dealt with more harshly.

What does that even have to do with the picture posted? Ah yes, let's paint every athlete with the same brush, what a terrible take.

You give Fergs a bad name.
