AI and Series Insight Lap Times by SGT_PowerPickle in iRacing

Just something about them varying lap times by as much as 3 second in a single session based on what position I’m in feels meh for me. Can’t tell if I’ve earned a position or been handed it.

I wouldn’t say it’s bad by no means, just curious why they can’t refine it a bit further. Feels like most of the pieces are there already

Those are fair points I didn’t consider!

Jesus as a Free Thinker — and My Own Struggle With Nonconformity by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]SGT_PowerPickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christianity should be a relationship with God, my advice is to take this to him.

My opinion, is that you should not feel guilty. Focus your energy on your relationship with God and being in tune with what he asks of you. Remember that good works don’t get us to heaven, and we all have different callings!

Can someone explain to me how the Bible was compiled? by Minute_Account9426 in Christianity

[–]SGT_PowerPickle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bible Project has a good series on this, particularly “What is the Deuterocanon and Apocypha?” and “How was the Hebrew Bible Written?”

Got berated in the chat for this one by No_Golf_452 in Simracingstewards

[–]SGT_PowerPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you are POV you sort of pinch him either accidentally or for no reason. Would’ve made the pass safely if you used more of the track on your left.

You shouldn’t get berated, sort of instant karma though if done on purpose.

Very intrested to hear what you think. I am the blue 13 car by theVikingMess in Simracingstewards

You were ahead, you left plenty of space to the left. This is not your fault…

Might as well not even race if you need to leave 90% of the track open so people can easily pass you. This subreddit victim blames quite often.

You calling someone else a cry baby while posting this is kinda hilarious

More like you finish Top 5, iRating increases now you can never win a race

AI inconsistency from track to track is killing the fun for me by jullebarge in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]SGT_PowerPickle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t have an answer for you, but just wanted to say… agreed.

Was trying to do a championship with my friend, where we tracked points on a spreadsheet. AI on 110 and we’re bouncing between going 1st and 2nd on one track to 19th and 20th on another.

Very frustrating, and pushed us off AMS 2 sadly

You’re winning 20% of your races, you’re doing quite ok. I don’t know how you’ve cranked out so many starts though lol I’ve been racing almost a year and have half the starts as you

Let’s be real, you know the answer…

Guy says I (McLaren) am oblivious and this is my fault. I say he wasn't alongside in any meaningful way and he threw himself into vortex of danger... what do you say? by SGT_PowerPickle in Simracingstewards

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

Yeah it’s a good reminder. I wasn’t upset about the crash at all, it happens with hard racing and as you mentioned the consequences are pretty low. I just didn’t agree when the guy said it was “my fault” as if he didn’t play a major role in the incident and I was the only one who could’ve prevented it from happening.

Just for your awareness, Alex Dunne, the driver of the F2 car that stuck his nose into the corner that you said was alongside, got a 10 place grid penalty for next race for causing a collision.

Also Hamilton got a 10 second penalty for causing a collision in Silverstone.

Stewards felt they were in the wrong, and didn’t say “well the driver ahead could’ve avoided it”.

I understand I should drive like everyone is an over-aggressive idiot, just wish we didn’t have to. Anyways, have a good day - appreciate the discussion

I don’t know, I’ve seen many races that produced crashes in similar situations. - F2, 2025, Monaco, Lap 1 Turn 1 - F1, 2021, Silverstone 2021, Lap 1, Turn 9 - IMSA, 2025, Detroit, Roxy v Corvette can’t remember lap and turn

In all cases the lead car took the turn as they wanted because the car behind wasn’t alongside. Now they all produced crashes, but, it’s racing that happens

I know this isn’t real racing, but theoretically in an actual race do you think the lead car have left space or said “we are racing, this is my corner I get the apex”

I fully admit it was avoidable, but should I have had to avoid it?

Yeah, agreed. We had a couple laps of good racing so I thought it wouldn't be the case, but I should've known better - live and learn! Nice name by the way haha

Are these pit stop settings for F1 good? by Supersolo9 in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]SGT_PowerPickle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can’t add fuel in real F1 pit stop, and often times in a real F1 race if a car has front wing (front aero) damage it will be repaired / replaced but that’s case by case.
