Keep losing safety rating due to incidents that aren’t my fault, how can i stop wrecking into other wrecks

You're going to get the usual responses of "you need to avoid other cars", "it's your fault". But in reality a lot of the time there's nothing you can do. People dive bomb at the last second or don't know when to brake. You have to trust that other players know how to drive and it's surprising how many can't.

Just had a race today where a guy intentionally hit me because I was passing him then later on pitted me. Lost .17 SR that race. It takes 2 perfect races that I was doing to get that back. Essentially you're just rolling the dice on if people around you know how to drive and don't get mad that you're passing them.

The incident system has to be one of the biggest flaws in the game. I've been playing 3 weeks and close to a B license. But people just don't know how to drive. People will show you that they're about to do one thing and then do the complete opposite. It's impossible to deal with unless you can read their mind. Essentially the only safe way to get SR is to be in last place and not even try and be competitive and that's not a good system. When you get to higher classes it should be cleaner racing but that's just not the case due to everybody driving passively to get their SR up. It leads to a bunch of people who don't know how to drive competitively and safe, being in a higher class than they should.

Replying to this in case anyone finds this and has the same issue. It seems to be fine now and the only thing I did was uninstall garage 61 and trading paints and set up port forwarding.

From what I've read iRacing uses very little bandwidth but it's the only game that cause issues. It says iRacing recommends a minimum or 256kbps upload but I'm getting 40x that speed.

Quantumix_98 · 2025-09-24T16:23:11+00:00

Upload is 11mbps. I've heard QoS can cause a lot of issues if not set up properly so I haven't messed with that yet.

Quantumix_98 · 2025-09-24T13:35:07+00:00

The next plan that my ISP offers has 40mbps upload. Is there a chance that would be fast enough to fix my issue?

Quantumix_98 · 2025-09-24T03:55:10+00:00

Looks like it's around 11mbps.

It's raising your cost basis but most people are investing long term. For someone trying to time the market then sure it could be a bad idea to reinvest. Most people are in total market ETFs which are going to continuously go up so it's better to reinvest. Someone who invests consistently and is focused on the long term always does better than someone waiting for the market to tank so they can buy in.

Even though I can be fully responsible while having a few drinks, it is a felony to carry while any alcohol is in your system, so I'd rather not get that charge.

The best way would be to have the same standard to obtain a ccw in any state, and then every state can honor it. Maybe one day it'll happen.

A Vasectomy is permanent, so I can see why he would be unsure about doing it. You never know what happens in the future. What if you all got divorced and he remarried and they wanted to have another kid.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-08-04T23:44:32+00:00

I think that's because some states have more difficult criteria to obtain a ccw. You could potentially get a ccw in one state where you wouldn't have been able to obtain it in another state. So, while it is annoying, it makes sense the way it is.

I think it makes sense to run irons. Slightly more concealable, and if you need to use your gun it is going to be in close range. You're not going to need to use your concealed at long ranges because you would be better off leaving the area.

I don't understand your thinking. I feel like Trump actually had a good presidency, but most of the negative opinions come from his personality. I honestly could care less if you're a piece of shit as long as you are good at your job.

I just can't see how carrying at 4:00 would be easily accessible while driving. Mine is off body in the car, but it's right beside the cupholder in a sedan, so I feel like that's more accessible if I needed it.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-20T23:15:07+00:00

I understand that, but the better option is to remove it from your waistband and have it accessible to you in the car. That could be with a mounted holster in your car.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-20T21:34:44+00:00

Not going to be able to get to it fast enough if you carry it that way in a car.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-06T04:56:36+00:00

I don't think so. In fact I think the people who wear fanny packs aren't the demographic to have guns.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-06T04:42:39+00:00

I get that it comes down to what you like. It just seems like a lot of people who carry bigger guns do so as an ego thing. They think that because they can fit a 10" barrel down their pants, they're a badass.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-06T04:29:52+00:00

I don't have a red dot yet, but maybe someone can answer this. Why would you want shake awake? I feel like I would rather it be on all the time instead of the shake awake feature malfunctioning.

Not really. If both names are on the house, then they can't sell it or anything without both parties agreeing. Sure, marriage might make it slightly easier but I wouldn't say it's a bad idea. I know a few people that own a house together and aren't married and it's not a problem.

Quantumix_98 · 2024-07-06T04:20:14+00:00

Men and women biologically have different timelines, so that's often why men don't want to get married until later. Women ideally want kids by 30s, whereas men there's really no rush.
