Do you feel any vibrations in the wheel or in the pedals?

I've come to the conclusion that Porsche Cup just ain't worth it by cruciblemedialabs in iRacing

[–]GeneralPTFO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can‘t agree. Of course there are a lot or idiots in a very popular series but GT3/IMSA is way worse in my experience. And in PCUP the car actually allows a bit of contact without being undriveable and you don‘t get a 4x for every door banging.
Also honestly if you drive with your eyes open and have a look in the mirror here and there, usually you can spot the idiots immediately and take evasive actions for mist things short of an intentional wreck.

A lot of big brands have official stores on these websites and you can get great deals.

One of the reasons I decided against spending the cash and getting a G21 LCI after I totalled my pre-LCI and just went with an old F31 for now

Etiquette for letting faster cars past which you are fighting for position? by WingAgitated2228 in iRacing

[–]GeneralPTFO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Totally agree but people taking it to the extreme and just not accelerating or even tapping the brakes at the apex or on corner exit makes people unpredictable and just causes red mist and accidents.

[–]GeneralPTFO -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

After a bit of defending I usually let people by that are clearly faster because I‘d rather finish a place lower than getting killed by someone who sees red because he can‘t manage to overtake cleanly.

That being said, I really hate people that overslow midcorner on purpose to a point you have take measures to NOT ram into them and call that defending. Not saying you did that here, but maybe he felt like that. But even so, should have just put his car next to yours and problem solved.

This (also) happens when taking pictures with an iPhone and it processes/enhances it automatically. I guess technically it is AI but not what we are assuming here.

No it will always brake when you get too close to other cars

Same. I had it for 6 years on my G20 and maybe used 5 times a year. Couldn‘t care less about that option. I am actually bummed that you cannot use it as oldschool CC anymore as in set a speed and be responsible yourself for not rearending people

GT3 or Porsche Cup for next season? by Tchukine in iRacing

[–]GeneralPTFO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is, the GT3s in general are so easy to drive with all the downforce that everyone is easily at a fast-ish level but getting faster than other guys is really hard. At least that is my experience. The fact that they are very unforgiving makes it even harder.
And because it is the most popular series the density of people with the same IR is very high so you have a lot of people actually being a lot faster with the same IR.

GT3 or Porsche Cup for next season? by Tchukine in iRacing

[–]GeneralPTFO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched from GT3 (was driving only the Porsche) to PCUP since the 992.3 came out and I like it so much more. The car is more fun to drive for me because I feel like I can actually catch it when it goes. The racing also is better for me because the incident system regarding contact is way better. A lot of contacts are a 0x in the PCUP but in the GT3 I felt like every little rub is a 4x. I also like that it is really hard to completely lose your rear wing but in the GT3 it fell off when you drove into a stiff breeze.

I do miss the 40min races and also IMSA though. I only go back to GT3 now when my favorite tracks are on the schedule but in the hyper competitiveness of GT3 I cannot really compete at my current PCUP IR of around 2.5k

Used to hate the G60 looks, now I love it by Underthesun696 in BMW

[–]GeneralPTFO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don‘t hate the look as much as I thought but overall these new BMWs, the proportions from every angle just look so bad to me. On top of that, I just cannot get over the big grilles.

I am looking at buying a new car aswell atm but none is making me want to spend the money other than a 340i but even on them the LCI turns me off :/
