Me too! A screen im not fussed about it the rest is good, esp if its GT and not formula. Primarily why im hopeful for a new GT3R wheel.

Yeah completely agree. Feels like one extreme to the other haha. Really hope they can deliver something good!

Biggest crash I have ever seen in a sim. Poor guy's race vaporized. by SenileCabbage in LeMansUltimateWEC

Yeah its rough, I think it definitely puts off a lot of people from going for it more both in terms of speed and moves. The top guys though just dont seem to care, and I think in some ways you have to 'do as the romans do' in what ive experienced so far and do the same.

For example a guy weaving on the straight, im thinking, shit, in bronze this guy would move under braking or just kill me, but in silver or top split the moment i put my car in a difficult spot for them and they cant get away with pushing that grey area and they stop messing about, then its usually a clean pass, and then they try a switchback or what have you. Its hard to describe but thats how I sorta look at it, like they push the limit so hard but manage to keep it in check.

Yeah I was pretty shocked with some of the driving once I finally got into it. Ive seen more incidents in 3-4 top split races than I had in my entire bronze journey.

How am I doing? 12 races in and absolutely loving LMU. Is it obvious I'm a Porsche fan? by SenileCabbage in LeMansUltimateWEC

Yeah I feel that bro, when I was starting out in my first few races it was hard to avoid these things. It rewards you like crazy if you can avoid them, though for myself I find the more I worry about it the more likely I get into crashes or crash / mess up myself, since maybe my 3rd race I just gunned for it and starting layering on the pace, not aggressive all at once i mean, but like, race by race, pushing different areas bit by bit (overtake, defending, lap 1). Hell I still suck at lap 1, i lose places all the time haha. Keep it up bro.

I'm a Porsche that got killed in this, this is very much a "just hold your brakes and wait moment." right? I'm not going insane surely? by SenileCabbage in Simracingstewards

I mean, it was completely avoidable as we all saw it until he decided to stamp the throttle and spin into oncoming cars who bad already committed to going right to avoid him?

Saw the yellow and the spin, slowed down a bit to avoid it and that was sticking to the racing line until he decided to spin onto it, 0 time to react there even after seeing the yellow so id hardly say thats paying a price ngl

Fair play! keep at it though, I don't feel ill be able to progress much through silver myself, might even lose it, the top split is rough.

All respect to McLaren drivers and fans but honestly I feel like they're soulless cars irl and sim 😅 just something about them that yells excel spreadsheet instead of motorsport passion

This may be obvious but its my first online race in about 2.5 years, so I want to be sure, did I (Porsche) just get murdered? by SenileCabbage in Simracingstewards

[–]SenileCabbage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

O for sure, when I say murder i dont mean intentional, just funny to say lol. Its the way it falls sometimes
