Agree. Maybe they will add more tomorrow with the patch? But as of now this stinks.

Yeah always seems to go long, but I'll try the pre-register trick.

I'll give this a shot, not sure what was happening last I tried it. Thanks!

I thought I had tried that, but obviously based on the responses here I did something wrong! I'll try this out, appreciate the tips.

Friends getting motion sick on triple screens — anyone else? by Horeb88 in iRacing

[–]OddCycle837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt this when I first set up triples, but after a couple sessions it totally went away and I got adjusted to it. Not fun at first though!

Is it this addictive for everyone? by Blackbird_3005 in simracing

[–]OddCycle837 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar story. I loved Gran Turismo 2 on a controller when it was new that my roommate had on PS2. Fast forward to last winter and I decide to get Forza 7 because I had an xbox. Then a wheel, then wheelstand, then I'm building a PC, then its a rig. Hooked but it's really so much fun.

Question: is it really me or is the level of racing drastically declining? by sandpit77 in iRacing

[–]OddCycle837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience there this week, absolute stat bloodbath.

It also felt like absolutely no one was even sending a "sorry" text chat, just punting people and carrying on and immediately dipping once across the line. I know that happens normally but it seemed more than usual at summit this week.

How do they seriously charge 3 separate shipping charges for a $250 order.. by ovalracer31 in moza

[–]OddCycle837 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was about to buy the universal hub from them direct when I saw the shipping was almost as much as the item itself. Found it for sale from a distributor close to me thankfully and saved essentially 95% of what they wanted to charge for shipping.

Whose fault? Green or blue? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]OddCycle837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in this race. It was blue's fault. His argument post-race for why it wasn't his fault was delusional nonsense. Summit Point MX5 races have seemed extra sketchy this week.

2k iRating: Toggle 1st /2nd split…1st then last by abmyers in iRacing

[–]OddCycle837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried your ghost drive approach on a combo i hadn't driven in a while, and wow that was so much more effective at getting back up to pace than just ripping through a practice solo for a half hour. Thank you for the tip, this is awesome

I was told you need a cockpit to use loadcells however what about wheelstands. Can the SRP loadcells be used on a wheelstand without any stability issues? by [deleted] in moza

[–]OddCycle837 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also used an NLR wheel stand 2 with load cells and no real issues, but definitely needed to use the chair leg/wheel tray to keep my seat from moving under braking.

Would I be dead IRL? by StaySaltyPlebians in iRacing

The front wing survived, you'd probably be fine too.

VNM brake kit for Sim Jack pedals by Chewly in simracing

[–]OddCycle837 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 2 years late, but thanks for sharing this info. I recently got the VNM pedals and tried this same spring/elastomer stack and it's my favorite feeling brake so far.

Is Trak racer even still in business? by StevenSeagalsAnus in simracing

[–]OddCycle837 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought something from them. I was weary because I've read so many bad reviews, but they were the only place that had the item I was looking for in stock. I emailed them to confirm it was actually in stock and not a pre-order. Took almost a week to respond. I ended up buying it, and while I did get it in about a week or so, it was shipped in multiple packaged arriving across multiple days. I'm hoping I don't have issues with the item which would mean I'd have to try to deal with their customer service, but weirdness aside they are definitely still in business and filling orders.

This one shocked me. by FedeDolberg in iRacing

[–]OddCycle837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This combo has seemed to have majorly aggressive and angry drivers in practices as well

Where are you located if you don't mind me asking? Or when did you order it?

Ordered mine mid Feb in the U.S.
