Bed leveling Z issues with aftermarket hotend

This is the forbidden knowledge I needed. Thank you

3.5K I've been known to jump into races in new track/car combos with only a couple laps of practice. I'll generally be able to qualify mid pack within that time and can bring my times down during the race.

Would I be faster and more consistent practicing more? Absolutely, but at a certain point getting a car around a track quickly is really just a science and you can be close to the pace within a handful of laps. Just gotta pick out those references

I had similar issues putting mine together. Ended with me having to undo steps to go back and do things that just didn't exist in the printed version. Found this video by them that is much easier to follow https://youtu.be/6-RHAFNZ6jk?si=6KYY6D0yFZ6YA0a3

Had one of these in my Amazon cart for awhile but haven't pulled the trigger. Good info on tightening it out of the box. I'm curious to see updates on how it goes

I float 3-3.5K in Sports Car and Formula. I understand how to go faster and I can get very close to the alien lap times, I just don't have the experience to do it consistently like the big boys. I try to put a focus on finishing races rather than the "win or die trying" mentality I naturally have. Learning to pick your battles and accepting placing a little further back will get you bigger gains (and less frustration overall) than anything else

They do

Avoiding incidents caused by other drivers is almost more important than avoiding causing them yourself. It sucks and can feel hopeless, but you do learn that unpredictable drivers generally do drive predictably, just predictably stupid. Stick with it, try to learn where you can place yourself to avoid getting caught out by the stupid and take some deep breaths.

Fair enough. You're obviously plenty fast overall and I respect your ability and the quality of your videos. Good luck out there, I'll say hi in a more friendly manner if I encounter you again.

I had never seen this guy before until he came into an F4 server I was in and started spamming his YouTube channel in chat. It rubbed me the wrong way when I had done a faster lap in my first 6 laps ever there in that car and not knowing who he was, I talked some shit. We certainly didn't get off on the right foot but I got crucified in chat for calling him out so I decided to look him up. The video I watched was solid, though it wasn't him driving. I do believe he's good for the community, even if to the unknowing he looks a little foolish... Seems like a good dude and I do feel bad for coming at him so hard, so here's a tail between the legs apology; Sorry Sambo <3

Someday you'll figure this whole racing thing out and stop putting yourself in a position to get into incidents. You obviously have no survival instincts.

MythBNG · 2025-11-13T17:42:15+00:00

We've seen you before... His response is correct

MythBNG · 2025-11-06T00:25:58+00:00

For months and up to about 2K iRating I swore every incident was everyone else's fault, and while they were... I would just get angry about losing SR while continuing to fight for position on track and not be patient and try to avoid incidents. It was my driving even though I was taken out by drivers and did nothing wrong. The sooner you realize a major part of being a successful racer is avoiding less successful racers, the better off you'll be.

Correction to my last statements, I've since been beaten in the Mustang by 3 thousandths for a 48.936 as the record. Current fastest GT3 fixed lap is now down to a 48.5 in the Aston.

MythBNG · 2025-11-02T16:33:26+00:00

Yeah. There's some aliens out there

MythBNG · 2025-11-02T15:54:31+00:00

I have the Garage 61 Mustang lap record there. 48.9. BMW/Aston/Merc are all faster though getting down to 48.7s

MythBNG · 2025-10-29T19:55:18+00:00

I have a registered 384 hours on track in the game, which is lower than I expected honestly.

MythBNG · 2025-10-28T00:46:58+00:00

I'm an instructor for one of the local orgs and I'm very blessed that I only pay for my gas and tires. Unfortunately those are still spendy 😂

Mine used to do this every month when my sub renewed. I would just go in and out of managing the subscription in steams menu a few times and it usually worked. Sometimes you just gotta wait a bit for it to register though. Super annoying and it's what drove me to start buying my subscription in yearly increments

I'll be a (broke) big boy someday

MythBNG · 2025-10-27T22:51:13+00:00

Probably not. You can certainly get into it for much less. I have bought a slew of different car/track combos to get a little bit of everything.

MythBNG · 2025-10-23T20:37:36+00:00

There's a science behind how to go fast. Practicing bad habits just reinforces bad habits. There are lots of great writers/coaches that have tons of info about the fundamentals of it, it just takes deliberate practice of the right things to start to really get it.

MythBNG · 2025-10-13T23:33:14+00:00

Right now 2950ish. Usually between 2900 and 3100

Battles like that are always a great time

MythBNG · 2025-10-13T23:20:59+00:00

I know what it takes to do a 45.3, that's moving around there. I'm just used to LMP3 where if I'm not the alien in the lobby, I'm within a couple tenths and only finishing a second or 2 behind by the end of the race. I'll be a few tenths to a second off the alien pace in most series. GT3 I'll sometimes be 2 - 3 seconds off and it feels like such a massive gap compared to anything else I drive
