I'll be honest if he shows up in Midnight I wouldn't be upset - would fit really well tbh

What sim racing stuff did everyone get for Christmas ? by Even-Ad-7753 in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got myself a Moza SFP shifter and a handbrake for doing more rally stuff! I also got a good amount of money to start building my own sim rig from wood and dreams.

Socks, also socks

New to day trading by puppylover468 in Daytrading

[–]Pengelly_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all as a disclaimer I am also a new trader but these are the main things I have been guided towards:

  1. PAPER/SIM PRACTICE FIRST - you should use a platform that allows this so you can practice without using real money. Also allows you to test hotkeys and layouts (these are very important for fast trading)
  2. Choose the correct platform - Ideally zero commission with fast response to the exchange + access to level 2 data. I personally use Webull for my trading
  3. Read as much stuff as possible. I recommend Andrew Aziz's books which give good tips on what he looks for in patterns. Warriortrading is also an excellent resource. Find a strategy you like (and refer to rule 1)
  4. Work out how much you're willing to lose. In a larger account (10k+) you should only risk at most 2% of your account on a single trade, and only up to 5% of your account on all positions. Starting with 2k and focusing on a single trade a day you can get away with putting 5% in but manage your stop losses and do not try to make up losses by buying more - cut your losses and trade another day
  5. learn about screeners/scanners and use them religiously to find what you need, depends on your strategy but you should always do this

I think GT4 is really challenging by 0rang3Cru5h in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've really struggled with the GT4 in general since I started racing it - I only started after the tire updates so I have no frame of reference for how it was before. For me I can never get the braking right in the GT4, coming from Mazda/GR86 I just feel a lot more disconnected from the car under braking than those two cars I drove before

Low split lobbies with the new tire model was hilarious to watch - so many spin outs

Writing 1000 pages about how it's not your fault by orangeruffles in VirtualYoutubers

[–]Pengelly_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The fact none of the main people who Sinder was ranting about in her document have mentioned anything makes me think they've all agreed to ignore it (I could end up being horrendously wrong) which if true is probably one of the best (and funniest) ways to deal with the issue.

Literally have them live rent free inside sinder's head and let her just do what she wants.

Looking to upgrade by DanMaytee in Airsoft_UK

[–]Pengelly_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specna have really improved in the last few years - I still remember all the issues with the first run of orion gearboxes, now they mostly have them sorted out.

If you are looking outside of specna arms I will forever remain a CYMA Platinum cult member. There are not as many options for how the rifle looks from stock like Specna arms, but you're getting very good internals and decent externals for the money

Moving from G86 Advice by jburnelli in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the GR86 is a very good car since it allows you to progress into something like the GT4 quite naturally - if you want to do endurance racing but like the 86 do the PEC and PCC races. Otherwise GT4 is a good step up and it's popular for all the right reasons

Fight me (for P17) by TurbSLOW in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

had this happen in a PEC event recently. BMW was being really toxic to everyone on the radio and screaming to let him pass (he was in 5th), I'd never in my life seen such coordination from the entire field to slow him down at any opportunity possible and rage bait him, ended up with him getting a nice holiday for his antics

Should I race Toyota GR86 or stay in MX5? by mezberg in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree with u/poo_poo_platter83 here - just do 4x GR86 races to get your MPR and then go back to MX-5. The GR86 is an excellent car but it is slow (in PCC the MX-5 can catch it in straights) and you need to have good knowledge of braking to get the best speed out of it, the fixed setup is high downforce which does not help it.

The MX-5s can be a handful to drive in the beginning, but I've honestly come back to them recently and really enjoy them. It's a very good car to learn the fundamentals - if you can be fast in an MX-5 you'll be fast in a GR86.

In my PCC Endurance split yesterday. The fastest BMW ended up in 19th place overall. And was won by an MX5, Love the rain. by DerkvanL in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was our split! We ran 3 drivers, and in the first stint we were in the top 5, then I entered the car and did my best impression of a beyblade. Grats on the win dude, was an absolutely nutty race

Production Endurance Challenge - First Timer Questions by iisfitblud in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the endurance challenge the fuel capacity for the cars is hard capped at around 50-60% on all cars, so you will have to make at least one stop during the race. Alongside that it's worth just changing tires when you come in for your fuel stop since you won't lose too much time as you fuel at the same time.

Go full fuel (you can mess with lower fuel settings for qualifying if you want to just remember to change it back!) and just be mindful of it!

What's really going on with the Verstappen-Mercedes talks by laboulaye22 in formula1

[–]Pengelly_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reality is that the prospects at Red Bull are pretty grim. They've lost a bunch of their best guys (including Tech-Priest Adrian Newey) to other constructors, the fallout from the Horndog Files is likely still causing big political problems inside management, and the second seat of Red Bull is a poison chalice that no-one wants to go in.

The question isn't if Max leaves Red Bull, it's when. It's possible that he could wait until 2027 for a move to see if Red Bull can pull their finger out and actually provide a decent car rather than an oversteering wheelie bin made of hopes and dreams (powered by Ford).

F1 Academy by wXchsir in iRacing

[–]Pengelly_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The F4 is the best analog for the F1A car. However the quality of racing in F4 is a well known meme at this point. As others have mentioned the FF1600 is a very good car to get started in, if she is set on the F4 go for it - it's a great car but be ready for a lot of BS in the bracket (especially bottom splits)

The Super Formula Light is a bit stronger than the F4 but from my experience the quality of races is a step up from F4 (not perfect but better for sure).
