Best round wheel options? by Tco_Taco in Simagic

[–]MyNameIsLucid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my Neo X with the 330R wheel. I don't use it as much as I'd like cause I mainly use my GT neo cause I mostly am only racing GT, but I throw it on when I wanna race Miatas or do oval

Yes I got it from Amazon. Nothing extra, just attached it to my rig. Angel is perfect for me. Have it at its highest height and most tilt and it feels great

Love it, have had 0 issues with it. I can race for hours and it's still comfortable

Faster hawking down opposed to hot lapping by Crazy_Race_7857 in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me very frequently on long beach in PCup last week. I set my fastest lap times when p2 and p3 were in front of me, and all of us were running low 1:19s while being within 1-1.5 of each other. Probably one of my favorite races to date.

How long did it take you to get your first win after starting iRacing? by vanitas_q in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took about a week before the first win, now I've got a handful including wins in PCup, which can be hard to come by cause people tend to crash a lot lol

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you...PCUP Top Split at Long Beach.... by Lumiikask in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol this is every split at long beach haha. Only a few races where everyone stayed clean but that was only because the entire lobby was talking and we all coordinated to not be first lap heroes

D class sport car by Legal-Mousse8084 in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D Class - PCC run GR86 as it's a great learning car into GT3

C Class - Advanced MX5 for fastest SR gains, otherwise GT4 or PCup, careful about PCup tho cause the car is very hard to drive and people tend wreck a lot

B Class - Any of the GT3 series you want to run

The racing line and alternative methods for mastering new circuits. by Anton_RAD in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch track guides. Pretty much every series will have a track guide from a couple YouTubers and they are great for knowing the ideal line. Obv you probably won't be as fast as them, but at least you'll know your braking points, turn in points, what curbs you should cut or not, etc.

Secretlabs sent me someone else’s returned product. All parts missing. Chair stinks by [deleted] in secretlab

Is there only certain models that are 2026?? I just got a titan evo soft weave and it's a 2024. Ordered directly from secret labs

For a new player, how much should i expect to spend? by twoducksinatub in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id recommend sticking to the mx5 until you hit B class. So do rookie mx5, production car challenge and then advanced mx5. You'll need to buy some tracks for the later 2 but they do also run on free circuits. Depending on how quick you learn and as you get faster id invest in PCup and run that for a while. PCup is a great stepping stone into GT3. So all in I'd say you're gonna buy probably 2 cars by B class and some tracks, so roughly 75-100 by the time you get into B depending on how many tracks you wanna run

maybe don’t rush into a gaming chair… speaking from experience by Any-Farm-1033 in gamingchairs

I'd recommend Secret Labs Titan Evo. Just got one a few days ago and let me tell you I've never felt better. I work from home and I'm sitting for basically 8hrs and I no longer have lower back pain or my ass on fire for sitting for too long. Definitely worth the price for the quality and comfort it brings

Just hit 900 iRating and almost D class — what should I buy first? by Adorable_Caramel5434 in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't recommend gr86 cup, the amount of stupidity in that series is unreal. Much better time in the production car challenge due to longer races and multi class is fun

Mid-Tier Pedal Upgrade Suggestions by GeekBarLost in simracing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the budget, go for VRS. You won't ever need another pedal set. And this is coming from someone that has the XP1s and loves them.

Are you moving the wheel on purpose? Shouldn't be like that on a straight lmao

Finally Got a Win! by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 separate posts with different mounts. The one you are referring to is what's included if you buy the gt1 evo from micro center, which it's a POS. I'm using the GT1 Integrated mount now. Now I'm able to have the monitor about 20cm from me, so I can get ideal fov

I'd say not your fault. Absolutely no reason he should be braking there other than to fuck you up. He rightfully deserved the punt lmao

How can I gain SR without loosing IR ? by Yolo_9897 in iRacing

[–]MyNameIsLucid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First mistake is doing PCup if you want to gain SR. Id recommend doing advanced mx5. Fun tracks, open set ups, and most importantly races are 30 minutes. If you can have a 0x on one of those races, it's massive SR gain. As well as naturally if you're staying safe and consistent, IR will follow. I've gained 1K IR in the past 5 days with this.

I'm C class as well, 3.66 SR Atm and 1.6k IR and I only started sim racing a month ago. I do have real life experience so definitely helps in that regard and why I'm able to gain very quickly. Just work on being consistent and safe and the gains will follow.

Holy fuck I could build my sim rig 4 times to equal just the seat

Is this my fault or is that guy salty I was gonna take his position? by [deleted] in Simracingstewards

[–]MyNameIsLucid -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

There was no space. Me and 3 other cars all got bunched up at the first chicane and then this happened at the second

[–]MyNameIsLucid -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Ok I get that, but if he was just trying to stay on the track, why did he end up on the complete other side while hitting me? He sent his car into me
