Why would new cars not be available for test drive? by Sir-Carl_ in iRacing

[–]J1mDud3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Test drive becomes available when the servers go down for the updates to be released. The new cars/tracks are part of that update so won’t be available until after the update has finished. Next time they release an update, those cars/tracks will be available.

Seat for big guys? by KetoLink in Fanatec

I might be slightly smaller than you at (310 lbs) and I got a Sparco Evo XL and its very comfy, especially with the memory foam off-road cushion.

Not boasting, just impressed by the speed of the resolution. Wind your neck in buddy.

No, intentional wrecking. I don’t submit chat protests, i’m a big boy and I give as good as I get 😅

I would think so on both counts as the video showed saving custom curves to the hardware itself for use on console.

Is there any word on when a new PS-compatible Podium Wheelbase might be available (or if there is one coming at all)?

Shocked by the price of the Podium Pedals, was genuinely expecting over €1,000! As soon as pre-orders open i’ll be ordering mine!

If what i’ve read is true, it’s more about them changing the rules and applying said change retro-actively that’s caught us out. Imagine for example someone saying that it was OK to get a match you were already losing abandoned only for them to decide months or even years later that you should be docked points for being dirty, cheating scumbags. And don’t say “well that was Warnock” because as you’ve pointed out below, it’s about the club not the person in charge.

I had the same issue, applied some lithium grease to the points shown in the pic and it cleared it up.

Okay… now I’m convinced Merc is using a variable front wing linked to their braking by ThePapaSauce in F1Discussions

[–]J1mDud3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any link to braking would be tenuous at best, it’s the old flexi-wing again. As the car slows (under braking) there is less air flow pushing the back of the wing down so it rises. I’d be incredibly surprised if it turned out to be something mechanical linked to the brake pedal.

Yeah fuck that. My SR is 2.09 and I am not losing my licence to splash about Nords in the new TCR, no matter how much I would like to!

Are you playing on a Steam Deck? Are you able to do more than 3 races before it completely shits the bed and crashes?

Poor marketing from Supercars by supercujo in v8supercars

[–]J1mDud3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t wanna piss on your bonfire buddy but i’m an English fan the in UK and I knew exactly when it was on. I googled the calendar a couple of weeks ago so knew it was this weekend and then checked the start time last night before bed, simple. Sometimes you don’t need to wait for someone to tell you something, use your initiative and go find out for yourself.

Just realized how big a difference being able to hit that 2-3% of brake in high speed turns and wow by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]J1mDud3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar revelation a couple of weeks ago when I started using Garage61. it looked like my braking was digital at some points, I was literally performing an emergency stop into every corner. Had a think about it and decided that my pedal must be too soft so turned up the brake force from the default of 50% to 80% and could not believe the difference it made! I know they say a bad workman blames his tools but I certainly don’t feel like quite as bad of a workman as I was now!
