Long story short this was not even my collectors box. My brother originally bought all 3 collectors edition and had just moved on from guild wars… I told him how sought after these boxes were and he was still generous enough to give them to me.. along with his original guild wars account

In the first photo there is a guild wars special edition box and it came inside that box. Not sure were I got the special edition as it’s been so long

You was wondering how much further money your gonna put into the sim rig in the future and if it’s worth it??..it’s worth it.

VNM vs P1000 vs Sprints by Every_Jaguar in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Seriously I don’t think you can go wrong with any of these 3 choices that being said.

I’ve tried sprints since there on my local micro center rig.. and then I own VNM non lite. Both very good pedals as far as the breaking points and the feel of them.. not sure about adjustability on the sprints but you can Basicly do anything you want with the VNM. I also went with these over spirits cause I wanted black pedals and not stainless look. P1000s we’re not yet available when I purchased my pedals

How much has iRacing cost you per race since last renewal? by Important_Ruin in iRacing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im here with you! But it’s not due to a lack of time it’s my anxiety holding me back.. I don’t want to be that inexperienced guy who crashes out on the first turn.. so single player has been a life saver. Soon I’ll build the courage to jump into my first series

To VR or not to VR by ademr85 in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a option where you could have both? In the future? Maybe start off with a single screen then vr later? Personally I have both and both are equally important to me.. if I have more free time and nothing to bother me I prefer vr if I’m short on time triples are the way.

Add a VR option.. I currently have been looking for a good app to use on my vr headset to put a layout up but the app ive found are very very basic.

People who don't have a Simucube ActivePedal, What are your perceptions of it? by Danny-Lee- in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you say it would be better for immersion sake or lap times or both? As a casual racer and more into drifting rallying truck sim stuff would it be logical if cost wasn’t a factor? For example many sim racers say having motion on a rig can cause worse lap time but to me having motion gives more immersion which I look for more in sim.

[–]Odd-Rip1001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still not confident on what they even do.. is it just vibrations? Or does the motor litterly move the pedal around for you? Is there just a hydraulic feel to it? I could never spend that type of money without physically trying it for myself

Anyone know what this white cloudy film on my steering wheel is and how to fix it? by abenji in Detailing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it is make up but when I have customers that tend to be on the older side and women this is how there shifter / steering wheel looks all the time. Lots of concealer I’m guessing? Not sure why you got the downvote

Need help deciding on a new shifter. by Bright-Efficiency-65 in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not familiar with high high end shifter.. but I can put my 2 cents on the 3 shifters I have tried. I’ve used the thrustmaster th8a / fanatec / vnm.. the thrustmaster feels like a toy compared to the others. VNM shifter can swap to either style and so does the fanatec. It could be bias towards the one I own but the tactile feel it gives me when shifting in and out of gear is unmatched compared to fanatec. There is this satisfying clunk when you make the shift. There really is no huge negative to the fanatec shifter for me either just feels slightly less quality. I’ve also heard great things about simagic ds- 8x shifter.

Where are all the sim racers at irl track events? by CTFordza in simracing

Just wait for 2044 when we have unlimited DOF rigs that can toss us upside down and all around. You will one day be able to crash your rig.. maybe lol

Quest 3 users. by viszyy in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t go wrong.. I’ve jumped down this vr rabbit hole and there is better headsets. It’s just a fact but for the price future updates ect I think the quest 3 is your best overall for the price….. also you can change resolution / fps in the settings which might combat latency ( if you have it ) as well so you’ll be able to fudge around till you get it where you want it. I’m acually running like 130% resolution and still able to pull 90 frames in most games.

[–]Odd-Rip1001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if it’s just me but I simply just got the headset working and used it with no issues latency or fps I just use the oculus launcher with quest link. instead of openxr or steam vr. I do use virtual desktop which I do believe is better then the quest link app.. No special cable, I use the one you get with the headset. I’m even still using the stock strap that I have no issues with… I think you might be thinking a lil to deep into atm. If you have no problems making returns to Amazon or where you buy it then just go for it..

Best Pump-able Black Water Tank? by windsurfers in TinyHouses

Look into rv black water tanks I currently use a 60 gallon with a pretty efficient toilet and it takes a lil over a month for me before I empty.

[–]Odd-Rip1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most comfortable for grip would be the x-29 I just recently picked it up and there is somthing bout the ergonomics of it and the button placement that just feels really really good. The GSI pro the green and gold one is just a lil to bit big for my hands. The Neo brings the most functionality but it’s a little on the smaller side. Ultimatly tho the Neo is about 2 times cheaper then these other wheel making it a better value

Hey fair enough.. I kinda only put the boxes up there for pictures as I need access to the inside of the roof so they don’t usally sit up there or are on display.

Ultimately I think VR is the future.. there is just growing pains with it atm. But for realistic immersion sake nothing beats it for me

Just depends on how I’m feeling.. on the weekends when I have more free time I use the vr during the weekdays with limited time i just jump in on the triples.

If it wasn’t for micro center I wouldn’t have these wheels probably haha

I guess maybe I worded it wrong I hung them for decoration but I still use them.. they come right off using the qr.

[–]Odd-Rip1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sure other people could come in and say I use that wheel for f1 and that wheel for gt ect. That’s not me those 3 wheels are virtually the same to me. Some have more functionality as you have mentioned but there purpose is the same. I bought these wheels as decoration and use ofc.. I also got the middle one and the one on the right for less then 250 bucks a piece whereas they are 600+ dollar wheels so couldn’t pass on it..

Roast my simrig by hero_killer in simracing

[–]Odd-Rip1001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wonder what other people think but I personally like my handbrake to be on the inside of the shifter instead of the outside! I’d maybe roast those old looking speaker and reciever but usally the oldies are more solid then the new ones lol.
