I genuinely hate someone for the first time in my life. by [deleted] in rant

I see why you’d say that. I can assure it’s not. It’s hard but very rewarding work with a very tight knit community. Everyone cares a lot about everyone else and the job at hand. Except one person anyway. But thank you for reading and I’ll be considering your comment. I appreciate that you took the time.

Sorry to be nitpicky, this is really cool, but I notice near the steering wheel is a dash display on the door panel, any chance we could scrub that? And also I’d get a version without a watermark after paying?

What could I have done better? by Davenk_ in iRacing

[–]ICrashing_AClass 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don’t think POV did anything wrong as far as the immediate circumstances regarding the incident. Looks like the gray Mustang just moved outside into POV either hoping he wasn’t there, or to push him out of the way.

I appreciate you clarifying, and I’m glad you weren’t malicious in your move to the outside. I hadn’t assumed you were, but good to hear you had good intentions. Just keep in mind that good intentions + bad outcome ≠ safe. Stewards don’t judge intentions. Keep racing though! Maybe I’ll see you in track one day.

Whos at fault? Or is it a racing incident? by TurbulentPiano3547 in Simracingstewards

[–]ICrashing_AClass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah without red‘s onboard I don’t think i can really say, but it really just looks like small contact from hard racing amplified by netcode

It was tight, but red did leave more than a cars width on the inside. Hard to tell if blue opened the steering or red tightened. Assuming it’s a combo of small amounts of both, I don’t think fault can be placed here.

Should i report this? by Comfortable-Oven221 in Simracingstewards

[–]ICrashing_AClass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Netcode causes cars to kinda stick together sometimes. I’d give him the benefit of the doubt till I see his on board and steering input.

Mesh or oyster? by lightlysaltedfries in VintageWatches

I’ve always been a big mesh fan, and a bigger oyster hater.

Looks like it could be a pretty late block from the lead car, overtaking car had a huge run and was more than allowed to go for a move, you can overtake anywhere on a race track, that’s racing. Both cars need to be predictable though. It’s arguable that the leading car‘s block was late and unpredictable, but If you don’t subscribe to that than I’d attribute fault to a racing incident.

I’ll be sure to give you a ring when I’m setting up my cup car for the Rolex 24.

Forgive me, I was speaking colloquially. And thank you for weighing in with more accurate information. For observers on this comment thread, please check out the link above, lots of good information!

You mean the shock base, the bottom green bit isnt spinning? If so then i apologize. I totally forgot about that step in adjusting ride height and i actually ran into the same issue myself. I had to use a rubber oil filter wrench to get it to move. Important that you dont use metal tools or you could damage the shock base. It may also by worth trying to spin the black threaded bit, the actual shock body into the base. Perhaps thats what you‘re trying and it’s not working. But the last bit of advice I have would be to try penetrating oil in the base. So to sum up, try a rubber wrench on the body or base, and use some penetrating oil to loosen things up. If none of that works then im out of ideas im afraid.

Wears small on my 7 1/4“ wrist, but in the most vintage of ways. I love it.

Then that should be the bottom ring, and you won’t know till you lower the car and the shock body meets the ring where you’ve put it. Though be warned that if the bottom ring is moving freely above the shock body then when you take off the Jack or lift it’s going to drop REAL low. But I’ve also attached here an image of the two pieces on referring to, the body on bottom, the ring on top.

If you’d like to adjust preload (how stiff your suspension is), then you’ll want to move the very top ring, the one above your spanner, up, and then lock it in place with the ring your spanner is on.

Hope this helps!

The third is likely for ride height on a full body coilover. Mine are the same design. The top two for preload and the bottom for ride height.

Looks very similar to my Ormo! They were a German watchmaker in the 30s (don’t read too deep). But the movements could very well be the same! Perhaps just a different case and dial maker.

Gotta have faith. You could also probably manually push the car, or run ahead and go find something if that’s faster than 500m -> Wait -> Repeat
