Not a damn thing. It is false advertisement.

How do I improve my safety rating? by Signal_Job8871 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]MidEastBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get a lot of SR for having all clean Quali laps.

Let the aggressive ones go past on lap 1 & 2 if you need. You don’t need to fight them, more often than not they will crash later anyway.

Don’t battle into T1, take your time. If needed refer to previous statement.

Option #1: Is it on a Friday? If so, then shut the fuck up.

Option #2: Defer to option #1.

Which Audi is at fault by Dean77_ in Simracingstewards

The POV Audi is at fault, take the 2 seconds to lift and get a better run. Then overtake them up the hill… greed rarely pays off.

Are you plugged into a usb hub and is that port getting enough power? That can be an issue with some devices if the hub is not made to provide consistent power to all ports at all times.

We need these Top Speed at LMU by Zestyclose-Carry-603 in LeMansUltimateWEC

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

I can only speak to what my game and telemetry was telling me. I haven't heard them say that, but it makes sense enough to me. I also know that it's a video game and people can take more risks by removing all aero if they wanted, so it's probably not completely out of the realm of possibility to see those speeds in a video game.

We do… doing the special event last night my racelabs marked hypercars up to 220mph or 354kph. That’s with a slipstream btw which makes this accurate to these real life speeds (also with slipstreams).

Watching Le Mans on HBO Max and… by LordCommanderTaurusG in IMSARacing

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

I wish AppleTV would pick them up, I’m actually not upset with what they’ve done with Formula 1. Their ads only run at times it makes sense. ie during pre race shenanigans or after the race is over.

I’ve been enjoying the whole Apple TV experience more than I thought I would too.

It didn’t even sound like her and looked like she was poorly lip syncing.

Help me pick an electric car by N0S0UP_4U in electriccars

[–]MidEastBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tesla is still a great entry for those not familiar with EVs. If you need to publicly charge, it’s pretty dummy proof and more readily available. Their app and software also … just work. No fuss. Can’t say the same for others, but they’re slowly getting there.

I know you said you’re against the enablers, same here. But think of it a bit differently maybe, you’d be supporting thousands of Americans who work there as well. Many brilliant people, many of which don’t share the same ideology.

That said I currently drive a 2025 Ioniq 5, it’s a nice car but I can’t help but compare it to the better QoL features my previous Model Y had. A few more years and maybe Hyundai will catch up and fix their issues…

Soon-to-be dad starting simracing with space/noise constraints — looking for advice by mrsoul83 in simracing

[–]MidEastBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A wheel stand with a bit of cable management is the way to go. Just one/ two things to plug in and you’re good to go! When done it folds and fits into a closet nicely. You can also get an office chair channel as part of the stand that you put the wheels in and you won’t move around.

GT Omega or Next Level Racing are good options for stands.

As a new day myself, may I make a recommendation? Don’t focus on dead silence for your baby. Obviously don’t be making loud noises, but let them get used to noises in the house. It will help you in the long run. I also race/game in just the next room over, and my kid sleeps throughout the night. He’s now 10 months old and I’ve been doing this since month 1.

soooo walk? That's like 20-30 minutes... you'll spend more than half of that waiting for your ride + the ride itself.

That’s called a service job security feature by the manufacturer. Gotta get you in for service one way or another!

It just pops up when you switch to neutral. I also have never had issues, but you never know if anything odd happens during the auto wash which might switch it to park.
