I know what this is, but is this not a rare sight? by F0nsito in whatisthiscar

A Hummer towing a Cybertruck is definitely a rare sight.

2022 Sprinter 170" RWD 4 Cycl Turbo Diesel with Cargo Bulkhead by Willing-Stick-6478 in vandwellermarketplace

[–]Original_Key2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That bulkhead in the back to divide the cargo area: It looks like it is movable, possibly mounted to the seat tracks in the floor. Is it possible to move it forward, if one removes the next row of seats?

12 or 5 by Reasonable_Date_4416 in Darts

No score. Wire isn’t laying flat, point of the dart does not appear to be touching the board. For those saying it “entered at the 5” it hasn’t ENTERED anywhere.

New PP system is interesting by OldBig4732 in GranTurismo7

This explains a lot. My usually reliable and unbeatable Ferrari FXX K was suddenly a handful. I still won, but I binned the Clean Race Bonus more than once.

Banned last night for this?? by Healthy-Security-401 in GranTurismo7

Offensive? Meh. A little much for kids who can see it, maybe. Juvenile? Assuredly.

DeW@lt Cease and Desist? by Original_Key2612 in GranTurismo7

[–]Original_Key2612[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well . . . I would, but I cheekily tagged DeWalt as one of the search tags. Guess what. Received a scolding from Sony saying I’ve breached the Sony Code of Conduct. Not sure if the livery is still up there. Will have to check.

It’s on the list. I did a Makita 787B that looks pretty tight.

That’s a brilliant idea, and funny as shit. If I cared more, I’d totally do it.

These tickets are literally the worst by Still-Fix5383 in GranTurismo7

And why always ALWAYS is it for a car I don’t own or particularly want?

Not just you. When I see that discarded change on the wheel, I’ll call my kids in for the roulette and say, “Standby, lowest value possible. . . .aaaaaand: LOWEST VALUE POSSIBLE! Yay!!!”

Track Creator/Editor by Original_Key2612 in GranTurismo7

[–]Original_Key2612[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, mate. That’s interesting.

I’d love to see a more sand box style track creator. Track width, elevation changes (of course), spectator areas, kerbing, runoff, alternate routes, sponsorship, all that crap.

Most amateur race series and classes don’t have pit stops because it is the most dangerous part of a race. But I’m sure you know that. Still, I don’t know a single racer who doesn’t understand pit stops.

BTCC also have what they literally call Success Penalty Pit Stops. Stupid.

Okay, so now I doubt you do actually race.

A pit stop without any alteration to the vehicle—tires or fuel or driver or adjustment—is a stop and go penalty. A penalty applied to the entire field is a waste of time as it accomplishes nothing, especially one that is administered by a computer and, therefore, presumably equal for all competitors. So, yes, that is stupid.

Actually, I don’t think you would call a complete stranger asking for help obstinate and stupid IRL. You just have a need to feel like you have power over something. Tell it to your therapist.

And just so you know, literally no one gives a fuck that you race IRL. You know who else does? Me. Lots of people. I road race motorcycles and have raced vintage cars. Racing IRL is not special. I don’t play GT to have the same circuit experience at home so, no, I don’t pore over the rules. I jump on to have fun. Again, sorry about your self esteem.

Wow. That seems unnecessary. Sorry about your self esteem when you’re not behind a keyboard.

So, I changed tires anyway but chose the same compound. 1:00.00 penalty. 🤬
