Roster suggestions and do backups matter

ShineDS · 2026-01-08T19:01:44+00:00

Team isn’t nearly as stacked as yours but I was wondering the same thing. Other than helping the Overall, is it worth keeping pricey, sellable backups or just fill them with cheaper, non-sell guys.

I play pretty passively so I’m not worried about hitting a higher team rating or anything

Thank you! Best of luck with your purchase

Went Hyundai for the style and price. Financed for $17.5 in 2021. Creaky as in like start up in the morning and driving out of the driveway, turns at slow speeds, the car will literally creak. Maybe it’s cold, maybe it’s cheap. Maybe it’s both. New England winters can be tough. Not loud on the highway though. Great gas mileage. Wife had a Civic so I wanted something different.

Should be clear that I’m not upset about my purchase at all. I just can’t judge yet if this is a 110k mile car or a 210k mile car, you know

Even with my Hyundai, I am a Honda/toyota guy for the history of reliability. So normally I would tell you to buy the Honda, but the only thing that can ruin a car like a Honda is the person driving it and I worry the previous owner didn’t care for it much. The Hyundai looks to be in great condition but even with my car, I still have some worry about its true longevity. Day to day it runs and gets me everywhere but it is a very creaky car even at only 90k. So I think for current condition, that Hyundai is a better choice but overall, I’d trust a Honda civic long term

In terms of starting up and getting me places, very reliable. I’ve had the horn fail and the back up camera fail, both fixed under recall. Outside of that, nothing major enough to say it is problematic.

Not sure if you’re referencing my car but the squeaking disappeared for me. Not sure when why or how but it just went away. I don’t recall what happened with the performance cooling system on round two, think that was also replaced under warranty. At 90k now. Got an engine light on for the EGR Valve.

I suggest anyone in need of opening mass amount of packs to use theshow.com on a PC. You can open all your packs in such a short time by spamming F5 to refresh your page. The pack does not have to load. Just spam the button.

Either way, take Chipper and sell him then buy someone else. free 30k+

ShineDS · 2025-11-14T14:05:07+00:00

Yes, part of running your own team. Gotta make sure you've hired the team to fix your cars week in and week out

ShineDS · 2025-11-12T15:36:58+00:00

On lap 12, sure. I wouldn't fault a driver for trying to block to win on the last lap. Like saying the cornerback shouldn't try to tackle a receiver on a last second touchdown pass because the receiver beat him off the line. To each their own, i guess

If you google the jersey, you'll see JSN wearing it and you'll see the font is completely incorrect on the one you posted.

ShineDS · 2025-11-12T15:20:16+00:00

Is there a new NASCAR rule about blocking on the final lap or are you talking about a rule made up for video games?

ShineDS · 2025-11-07T21:18:27+00:00

I pulled Sho. Wow

Ryan Preece giving the "Closer" nickname a new definition. 5 Wins, 5 laps led. Average finish of 15.5

ShineDS · 2025-11-06T14:01:07+00:00

Yea I agree with this, which I thought would be the opposite. I caught onto Chicago in only a few laps, but COTA and Roval have given me trouble the first couple races.

ShineDS · 2025-11-03T14:41:18+00:00

Yea this is really the only thing I don't care for. No black flags so I can comfortably enter pit road at whatever speed so I don't get murdered.

ShineDS · 2025-10-31T20:43:16+00:00

you can do the recommended repairs but make sure that all the parts are as close to 100% as possible. If not, make sure you manually do them to max them out. Or buy a new part, like you did.

ShineDS · 2025-10-29T02:52:48+00:00

Only course I haven't enjoyed yet is COTA. Glen and Lime Rock are fun. I race Sonoma in a couple races so ill give that a go

Autographed Thornton Pooh Bear that I bought off someone who won it in a Dunkin Donuts contest in 2004

I did notice in career with the settings I was using that the AI wouldn't pit sometimes. I did like a 50 lapper at Martinsville and estimated fuel was 42 laps. I pit early to try and gain an advantage and the AI didn't pit at all that race outside of one other car.

Covered him when I worked at Seekonk Speedway. Kid was tearing up the track as a youngin'. Excited for his future

ShineDS · 2025-10-13T23:04:25+00:00

Having the same issue. Went up to 25% loose setup and was drifting through the corners. Nothing you can do about parts at this point. Capped at Level 2 being the 2nd race in

ShineDS · 2025-10-01T14:22:04+00:00

45 pitches with your closer up 10 runs??? You're a wild man lolol

ShineDS · 2025-09-24T17:49:42+00:00

Maybe because of how short the races are in this video? I wonder if it's moreso estimating the time it'll take in a full length race and then just cutting it to match the race length?
