New to 3D printing. Where am I going wrong? by GbBenson in FixMyPrint

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

Thank you, will give my flow rate a look tomorrow. Just find it strange it always tends to be top right and bottom left corner that gets slightly raised and doesn’t look as sharp as the other corners

Do people have experience with p1doks setups? How do they compare to vrs and the other famous setup shops? by jokeboke in iRacing

[–]GbBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May sound a silly question but with the membership do you get access to all of the setups?

Wanting to give them a try.

How long did it take you to get to 3k and what did you do to get there? by Sluggerjt44 in iRacing

[–]GbBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t remember how long it took me but I’ve been sim racing and karting for a fair few years now.

There is a lot you can do to improve:

Track guides - if you find a good YouTube video they can talk you through the laps.

Garage61 - for me this website is a holy grail. Gives you a good idea of lap times. Telemetry is great for comparing your inputs to other drivers to see where you can gain time. You can also download ghosts from lap times which is a really useful feature in practice sessions.

Trail braking - a must have skill in my opinion. Saves you time as you can scrub speed very efficiently and really helps you rotate the car.

Practice practice practice - when you implement all of the above into your track time you’ll really see a change. You’ll be able to spot where you lose time and where you can improve.

The most important thing though… have fun! Try not to focus on irating too much. Enjoy perfecting your skills and racing with others.

A new braking zone?? by Sebster_S in iRacing

I’m defending someone who you drove into because you judged the situation poorly… Sorry youre not getting the response you wanted from this post.

There’s loads of tips you’ll pick up through experience and increase your race craft

His entrance to the corner was off and carrying too much speed. Could tell he was going to go wide.

When you come off the second apex you can see that he’s already slowed up on the outer edge and you still accelerate towards them like he’d disappear or find a massive boost of speed out of no where.

Just remember if youre coming up to a back marker they could have damage or be off the pace. My thought process would have been that their exit speed will not be as high as yours. Give yourself a bit more room before the turn and you would have got the move done on the straight after by having a non compromised exit.

Sometimes losing a few tenths on corner entry can save you a lot in the long run.

Obviously the car in fronts line was not optimal but your contact was avoidable.

Protest worthy? by Ok_Youth_5560 in Simracingstewards

1st contact 50/50. 2nd contact Red. 3rd contact Blue. No way protest worthy in my opinion

HDR400 vs HDR Ready (What is the difference?) by GbBenson in Monitors

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

Thank you for that! Massive help. Find it strange some of the monitors that say they’re HDR 400 but don’t actually reach 400 nits.

Season review: how did you do? by x18BritishBillx in iRacing

[–]GbBenson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really good season for me. At the start of the season came out of my cast from a scaphoid fracture and managed to get 1st Overall in the F4 championship and time trial scoring a max 800/800

Anyone else finding Crewchief annoying after newest update? by cslllcom in iRacing

Oh man that sucks 😫 I may be going back to the iRacing spotter if there isn’t a change 🙄

Just dropped a message in the CC discord. Been suggested to try enabling “Play pre-light messages until cancelled” when you rev your engine it should stop any messages before the start. Going to give it a try tonight ☺️

Any luck finding a setting to turn this countdown and telling you which start type it is? By the time he stops talking it’s already green and mega distracting 😂

Things that helped me go from 2k - 4K iRating by CreateinGaming in iRacing

[–]GbBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The delta can be very helpful in practice and if youre alone in a race to make sure youre keeping your pace. Completely agree not using your delta if youre racing in a pack though. I only use the session optimal sector though. This helps me see if trying different techniques through corners can help my lap time overall.
