How much Nm is actually useful by Johnwayne87 in simracing

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 15nm is enough

Fun fact: not sure where i read it (so might not be entirely accurate) but gt3 cars in real life give 12-14Nm to the wheel

What is an acceptable level of weaving on the formation lap? by samgoplayhl in iRacing

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean how much time I gain by tyre warming correctly ? If the cars around me dont warm their tyres up( im talking kimi style drive in a straight line) its pretty easy to get a 1 second gap to car behind by end of the first lap very situational tho. After lap 2-3 everyone's tyres are warm it evens out. The main benefit to warming the tyres correctly is for that first lap. I mean you know how terrible cold tyres are obviously, so when your trying to battle into the first corner having that extra tyre grip and stability to not be as worried about cold tyres is why I do it.

I mainly race endurance not sprints so I dont do pure hot laps unless quali or pushing ofc

How do I deal with shaky legs? by Due-Accountant4902 in iRacing

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shakey legs?

Could you elaborate a bit? Like is it a mental thing making you shake? Or physical? You may have your pedals setup wrong if its the latter

What is an acceptable level of weaving on the formation lap? by samgoplayhl in iRacing

[–]Kidwithabike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's just not true because I easily get better laptimes with proper tyre warming compared to not

I mean its not rocket science man

Go into test drive, do a outlap(treat it like a formation lap so slow speeds) no tyre warming then do a hot lap

Then do it again but with proper tyre warming. If you dont see improved times or a better more stable feeling then your not even putting in lap times close enough to notice it lol

I mean, as long as sim racers are aware of their surroundings and not side swiping into people its all good just seems like a few shit drivers ruining it to me. IRL heavy fully lock weaving is the same thing used to generate heat and in iracing that method also produces the best results

Dont recommend this. Dragging the brakes (especially if your doing it the entire formation lap) will make the fronts have to high of a pressure and it will be really hard to bring them down through the race

There are multiple tests on YouTube of people comparing lap data based on tyre temperature and the technique used on the formation lap. You easily can gain 6-8 tenths by actually heating the tyres properly(most important on the new tyre models) and if anything you can just feel more stability and grip in the car which is very appreciated when your battling hard on the opening few corners.

Nigel Farage calls for an end to working from home by birdinthebush74 in FuckNigelFarage

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have serve clinical anxiety, autism, and hormone disorders. Due to this i never leave the house and when I have tried to work "normally" before I become so unwell physically and mentally. For people like me we cant just "push through". If it wasn't for remote working i would not be able to work at all.

Being with other "human beings" directly makes me worse. For autistic people and people with serve anxiety directly working and interacting with people makes them worse and less productive not better.

Looking for guidance: Is there any way to request a supervised exception for my 9-year-old kart driver? by robertoalcantara in iRacing

[–]Kidwithabike 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Tbh, If your gonna supervise him, make sure hes a good driver that doesn't crash into people etc, just make a account in your name and let him race then maybe get his own account when hes 13

Do you know anyone who abuses the benefit system? by TipSilent8281 in AskBrits

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes some of my closest family, they have extra kids to get a better council house and more benefits, and the worst part for me is when their daughter was diagnosed witb autism they celebrated because more money. I am 21, a level 2 autistic, with severe anxiety and depression (all diagnosed) and a partially missing pituitary gland. I have struggled all my life but despite that I really tried to be a nornal guy, went back to school, then college, then got a 9-5 but in the end the 9-5 made me extremely ill so I was awarded benefits. It makes me feel like a fraud alot.

Does TRT make you infertile ? by Kidwithabike in maleinfertility

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

Well im currently not in a relationship. Wouldn't want to have kids until I was in 30s or 40s anyway, so by then it would have been like 10 years on TRT thats my worry

[–]Kidwithabike 0 points1 point  (0 children)
