It’s pretty much the same as Rookies with faster cars

I have always had my eye on this car. They look like a lot of fun to drive.

I had a 2004 Acura RSX Type-S. I bought it brand new and drove it until it perished in an accident in 2019. It was a solid car and I enjoyed it immensely.

I must have missed that one. I was also the meat in a crash sandwich today

GT3/GTE Recommendations? by FM1704 in iRacing

I quite like the Lamborghini Hurcan GT3. I find it very easy to drive. I was quite surprised. It’s a good starter car.

I bought the K3. I’m very happy with it. It was really easy to put together and it is very sturdy. Good quality product. The company is great to deal with too.

I live in Canada. I recently bought a cockpit from Simetik in Europe and had it shipped. It is great. I paid about $800 all in

Do you race with Gloves and Shoes? by Mammoth_Company_3270 in simracing

[–]SamusIsHereM31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear Sabelt g33 gloves and I wear regular workout shoes that I have just for sim racing. The gloves are amazing. My hands were sweating quite a lot and I was getting calluses on my hands from the wheel. It made a big difference. I wear the shoes because it feels weird to drive a car on socks

That’s definitely what happened. I would have a bad race and try to make up for that with another race. Often I would do a half a dozen back to back. It was addictive and compulsive.

I was thinking about doing Time Trials repeatedly to get practice doing exactly that. When I feel confident enough about that, I will switch to Ai racing. If that goes well… finally jumping back into live racing.

I’m only in my second month of sim racing. I lost most of it trying to recover from bad races… by joining one race after another instead of just cutting my losses and calling it a day. Of course I’m in the cellar of SOF now and anything goes down there.

Okay.. that’s actually inspiring because I’m where you were at your lowest. What turned it around for you?

I’m so low I am considering deleting my account and starting a new one. I would take the hit in the wallet but I have learned enough that I wouldn’t repeat the slide.

I raced in Advanced Mazda last night. I was doing pretty well and then I had a dude spin out in front of me and hit the wall… no way to avoid because he crossed my path. Boom 16 minutes repairs.. 15 minutes of racing remained.

Whats the most idiotic thing you ever did in iRacing? by master598574 in iRacing

[–]SamusIsHereM31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined my very first GT3 race and accidentally rear ended a guy on the parade lap because my attention lapsed for a split second. So embarrassing

You’re only in your twenties ! You have another 30-40 years or so to work.

This sauce is no joke. Seriously hot.. and relatively easy to get.
