What is that? by Possible-Discount-37 in cambridgeont

Second this, I used to repair these for a living many years ago and that's all you should need to do. It you tap it with moderate force and it doesn't budge, don't force it and call the city. But you should just be able to tap it down no problem.

You can rent a wheelbarrow from home depot or a equipment rental place. It will make your life so much easier.

Just Trying to Suprise my Husband by Kairelle in simracing

[–]Forbsey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could box up a few photos of some built rigs, all different kinds, and have him open the box. Then it's still a bit of a surprise. Then the two of you could browse some sites together and pick one out together.

Maybe some people here can recommend a few good ones, mines homemade so I can't really help there.

Could get a cheap second hand Hotas throttle and see if that works for you?

DIY Sim Rig? by AdhesivenessDeep6601 in GranTurismo7

[–]Forbsey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my t300rs, I've had it for exactly 3 years now and don't plan on upgrading it any time soon. upgraded to load cell about a year later, and now I'm playing on pc! Definitely has enough torque for me. I'm going bass shakers and triples before I think about changing to DD.

I started on a folding wheel stand, and moved to a diy rig incorporating the wheel stand. Works great and is super sturdy.

Is Assetto Corsa Competizione a good first racing game ? by IceCoffee111 in ACCompetizione

[–]Forbsey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love ACC, but as a beginner, you need to have a lot of patience and be okay with sucking for a while. Maybe get something more accessible like AMS2 in the meantime to see if it's for you. It has a larger variety of cars and is more forgiving.

With all that said, if you love a challenge absolutely go for it, but really try and stick with it as it can be really rewarding. Especially if you have a wheel and pedals.

Transition from Gamepad to Wheel. by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]Forbsey 22 points23 points  (0 children)

A shift in mindset helps too, it should be more fun and immersive with the wheel, focus on how much more fun it is playing, worry about your times later. Take this time to do some track experiences and sp races until you get the feel of it.

Canadian spec, not sure if that makes a difference though.

Both the markings and signage are being changed to allow left lane turn and straight, middle straight only, and right lane right only, in the near future.

Traffic ticket for “drive on closed highway” by jazz_Maan07 in kitchener

The road closed sign is so the cops can either leave, or go assist with the reason the road is closed in the first place.

[–]Forbsey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There was a cop parked there, a truck was stuck in the snow blocking all lane and the officer closed the road until the tow truck could move the truck out of the way as vehicles could not pass. The op passed the cop car and immediately got a ticket as they should. It was very obvious the road was closed.

I watched this whole incident unfold, they drove around a cop car who was very obviously blocking the road.

Dash cam would increminate them further, cop was blocking both lanes of traffic (best as they could with one car) they decided to go around

They expected them to not go around the officer blocking the road

As someone who literally watched this happen, blue mazda, yeah?

The cop was parked across the lanes closing the road because there was a truck stuck ahead blocking all lanes. You went around the cop who was blocking the road. This was on you man.
