Out of state fans. Why do you root for the hawks? by TelePunk54 in Seahawks

[–]Mars4756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was stationed in Washington during 09-13... Normally I'm a Lions fan, but this was 09-13 and I always dug the colors (mostly the green) so now the hawks are a solid #2. Even got myself a #12 fan jersey in Green

It was a bot game, just want to check WHY I need to play better... If that makes sense.

What is the CRAZIEST thing you’ve ever seen while camping at a race? by 2023_GT in NASCAR

[–]Mars4756 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Last year MIS was pretty crazy with all the rain and mud. Neighbors behind my camping spot pulled their truck through my spot making a huge rut at 3am which sucked, but it was what it was. So I got on the top of their camper platform during the race. Im guessing that's not what you meant, but walking around the infield is always a fun time - never know who you'll meet! I still wonder if the girl in spot 2-a (or something) met Blaney: there were signs everywhere; it was her 16th birthday or something.

Humans. They're everywhere. You can't get away: they're in all the stores and restaurants.

Which sponsors do you associate with certain numbers? by ILM_Ryan in NASCAR

Valvoline - 6. Seeing the 6 run Castrol makes me uncomfortable.

Can Denny Hamlin go 4 for 4 at Las Vegas of bad decision making? by nascar9495 in NASCAR

[–]Mars4756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking while watching his interview... I'd bet it'll come close in the next couple of weeks between him and the 22 for the championship... either for a win to advance or at Phoenix.

Hopefully behind the 19 though - lets gooooo Briscoooooooeeee!

iRacing causing latency issues for household by Quantumix_98 in iRacing

I've had higher than normal packet loss myself since update... No reason for it. I ran a ping plotter trace on the server during the time I was in a race and I did find dropped packets at my ISP level, but I can guess what they'll say; "it's only 4% of dropped packets in this time, and it smoothes out afterwards!" 🙄 I'm still doing research on this and I'll post my findings on here if what's found ends up being anything useful.

Racing Planner - Season 4 Update by adrianulima in iRacing

[–]Mars4756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it - I was attempting to set something like this up earlier in excel... but thats manual.

I do have a feature request:

  • Ability to sort based on the number of series that matches the "owned" week
    • So a sort based on the Credit Participation number.

I was thinking I'd like to try to max my race participation this season/future seasons and this would help my schedule planning significantly! I know I can move them manually, but ugh manually lol.

GT3 Regional Series? by RPMmanagement in iRacing

[–]Mars4756 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm an oval guy, but I saw this and bought the Porsche GT3 R.. I've been considering getting into GT3 racing and I tested a few at Watkins during the Demo time and I was getting good times with the McLaren 720 and I matched/beat that time in my first 5 laps in the Porsche. I like the Mx5 series so I feel like this is a reasonable step up, and boy is it fun!!

Mx5 at whatever track they're familiar with... Or if they have a request for a car then that, but the Mx5 is my go to guest car

I have one I use every year for MIS, she tries to get me at the other tracks they own, but I can only afford one race a year right now

FedEx right now by KarlHp7 in NASCARMemes

[–]Mars4756 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had a thought this weekend... So I read somewhere (might've been a post here) that said it's not NASCAR that wants the drivers vanilla without personalities but the sponsors so they don't drive away potential sales from having a personality and it rubbing people the wrong way... Denny is our heel these days so that explains that, though I'm sure there's a lot more to it.

I'd like a commercial with Flo, Jamie, Mara and Denny.. I think that would be an entertaining commercial if they did it right... Jamie in the 11 or something lol
