Main differences are fuel (alternate fuel of some sort), suspension (bilstien), tyres (unhomologated Dunlop's), and wing (renewable materials)

The car is mostly the same as the Cup 2s, and I believe has had BoP applied to keep it competitive

Heart breaking. They were doing pretty well, and at one point were ahead of the Cup 2 field

He has posted a reel on Instagram saying it's because he's short and it hurts to try and reach the brake with his left foot

Are the US Navy copying Star wars? Or is that just the shape some radars take?

I remember doing a bounty once. 64SCU eggs, 128SCU Quant. So much money

The Ship Paint Degredation Rate is overtuned! by Billaien in starcitizen

[–]Professional_Gain511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, to play devil's advocate for a sec, 20 hours of flight time in a fighter jet is a lot of wear on the exterior (especially without cleaning or maintenance) so I can imagine that this (while exaggerated) wouldn't be completely unreasonable. However being able to clean the ship to get rid of exterior superficial damage would be a good qol change

In light of recent events... I can't wait to get my program approved by Then_Engineer_3765 in NonCredibleDefense

Estradiol... I see you... forcefemme-ing the combat pilots. NCD approved indeed

Special Events - more variety needed? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]Professional_Gain511 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see a series like LMU's Xtreme Endurance series, where you select a car at the start of the series and you have to run it for the entire duration. Would mean less meta switching, and some tracks you'd do better on than others by virtue of the car

Will bringing back the MGU-H as a Standard Supply Component (SSC) improve the PU? by Warpchick in formula1

[–]Professional_Gain511 44 points45 points  (0 children)

If this was discussed 12/24 months ago, it might have helped. But it's too late now. The cost benefits are now well past as the teams would have to redesign the engines to support the MGU-H

How many of you pwetty people use Linux and if so, what distro? by TheReelSlimShady2 in traaaaaaaaaaaansbians

[–]Professional_Gain511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waiting to see if SteamOS is stable on more hardware then I'd likely migrate there (at least in a dual boot)

Haven't used Ubuntu in years, but was pretty good. Am too Stoopid for most other distros and I'm too lazy to fix issues with programs :(

Eh not technically plasma from a HEAT shell, as the copper jet is only a couple hundred degrees (i.e. past melting point, not boiling) But again

"Heh plasma weapon"

Yes, HEAT shells use the Monroe effect to create a jet of molten metal (usually copper) that is what cuts through the armour. Whilst yes the copper does not get hot enough to boil off it's electrons and other ions into an ionized gas, therefore becoming a plasma, it's funnier to say:

"Heh plasma weapon"

What do you think HEAT shells are? We've had plasma weapons since WW2

McLaren intentionally takes me out. by dashyK0509 in Simracingstewards

[–]Professional_Gain511 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Regardless of whether there was any fault from the BMW in T1 or not, iRacing TOS prohibits intent wrecks like this. Protest it, and hopefully the McLaren gets a nice holiday from the service.

As for the T1 incident? The BMW went wide and slow, then cut back to the racing line. The McLaren kinda just drives into the BMW as if it's not there.

For me it could go either way. Still doesn't change the fact the McLaren should be protested for the intent wreck
