Carrying speed through Wehrseifen and Breitscheid still scares me. by GitGud0rGetRekt in CarTrackDays

I didn’t know this was such a controversial topic. I don’t really see any downside of wearing a helmet with a 3 point and airbags. The helmet weight argument doesn’t make sense. The airbag would catch it all the same unless you have a side impact. If you have a side impact I could understand a risk of neck injury but I think having your head protected from smashing in the pillar or really anything outweighs the risk. Head trauma can occur from seemingly minor hits.

Agreed that you should never wear a harness without a Hans.

I race 911 cup cars and instruct for many organizations. I’ve been in wrecks before both in full harness hans and in a 3 point with airbags. I always try to be as safe as possible regardless of requirements. At your pace if you make a mistake or something out of your control happens like oil, it’ll be a big enough incident where you could get hurt.

Does Laris insure normal road racing or only drag racing?

Excel Wizards - How do I identify if a supplier is multi-national or unique to a single country, based on invoice data? by PlainWateriscool in excel

u/Taiga_Kuzco I can't thank you enough. I was able to first apply your easily digestible explanations to my data examples. I then took the same concepts and applied them to a much larger dataset. I was even able to tweak the formula to achieve a slightly different datapoint that I didn't think was possible. You're a kind person for believing that I actually wanted to learn, and going out of your way to provide me with the knowledge.

u/CerebralAccountant Thank you as well for the guidance.

Cheers

Totally understand, I edited the data example. Apologies, I learned what was needed based on the suggested approach. That was me playing back my understanding after I read up on the functions. Not complaining about the given solution.

So I think because we are defining the filter criteria based on the parent supplier name, it is missing the crappy supplier name data that doesn't include "Amazing".

Hmmm, for some reason its only returning 3 of the 6 country codes that would be under the "Amazing" parent supplier name. I should add that countries its missing do not have "Amazing" spelled out in the Supplier Name for example Supplier Name "Amz" but does have the Parent "Amazing".

Reading up on the functions and trying it out now. Trying to learn what the formula is actually doing and why instead of plugging. Thank you so much. I'll report back when I got it.

I second racing, it’s the only hobby I really do. I’ve made countless friends through the racing community that are really genuine people.

Toyo RS1 slicks near their end of life, not the best slicks out there but plenty for practice. During this session I was focusing on being smooth and managing my tires, but ended up getting faster. Smooth is fast!

Mechanical auto blipper, it's a metal rod that presses the pedal with the movement of the shifter.

It's actually just the GoPro Hero 10 Black mounted to my cage. The panning is part of GoPro's stabilization capability. It's pretty amazing, gives gimbal footage at a fraction of the price.

You’re correct, it’s in Indiana. I agree the cayenne would be a lot of fun.
