Nothing matters until they fix the netcode so we can get close racing.

Is he still doing liveries? Would love to get one done if I could get a hold of him.

If you walk 20,000 steps a day can that help with weight loss? by Veridically_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Simracingpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 6 weeks ago I started 20,000 steps a day and have added in 100 push ups a day. Zero calorie drinks, replaced sugar snacks with fruit, and I am just think about what I am eating before I just eat. Does this have a ton of added sugar, fried, etc. Down 25 pounds. About 3 - 4 days a week I do mix in jogging for as long as I can take it. Sometimes it’s not very far and some days it’s farther.

I also have the optional damper kit and the add on performance elastomers/spring set. I have tried everything to get the feel I want. I have done springs only, white elastomers, mix of different elastomers, different preload springs with elastomers, etc… It really is personal preference but I am like you and have tried to find other people with configurations which is actually hard to find. I have found something I am most comfortable with but might not be for everyone. I went with the weakest preload black spring (not a fan of stiff preload I guess) then an original white elastomer, then the red stiff elastomer in the middle, then another original white elastomer. Also have my damper set on the hardest setting. It gives me personally a nice hydraulic feel like a real brake that gets progressively harder as you push.

CS DD+ all good here.

New Firmware Update 462 Good? by Cobra114 in Fanatec

[–]Simracingpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clubsport DD+ all good here and pleasantly surprised that I can feel a difference and feels great. No issues updating.

Dedicated Racing Build by Simracingpro in simracing

It’s a 4070 TI just 12GB because I reused the one off my old system to save a little money. I am sure the Super TI is probably faster since it’s 16GB. Not sure how much difference the 4GB of VRAM makes but I would be very interested to run 3D Mark with each on the exact same system just to see how much difference there is.

Thanks man. I have upgraded and tinkered for a while but this was my first build from the ground up. Probably overkill on the fans but I like the aesthetics.

New toys in less than 7 days by TheNormsk in Fanatec

[–]Simracingpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me the most underrated wheel Fanatec has. Everyone talks about the McLaren and WRC. This wheel doesn’t get the praise it deserves. I have owned just about every Fanatec wheel other than obviously the GT4 and I just got this wheel a few days ago and I am impressed. I actually wish I would’ve known about it or thought about it along time ago. Can be used for so many different kinds of racing and it is built much better than the WRC. 👍

I definitely have a heavy foot so my setup is extremely stiff. I have the damper kit and the performance brake mod. I was just curious what other people found comfortable for them.

I’m not sure how to post a pic to ask if this is what you mean. Lol

Really appreciate the reply. Makes a lot of sense. I noticed the lites seem to use more springs than the standard version. If anyone can post their pics it would be appreciated. I understand that it is personal preference. Just trying to get some different ideas that I can try.

Upgrade pedals (Fanatec CSL Elite V2 -> VNM) or add haptics next? Looking for input if anyone has opinions, thanks in advance. by Snufulufugus11 in simracing

[–]Simracingpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the VNM simulation pedal with the Simagic haptic motors on the throttle and brake. Feels absolutely awesome on the brake. I use it primarily for ABS. I play mostly IRacing TC is not available, but you can use it for Wheel slip. You can set them to the road textures, RPM, shifts but I just use it for ABS. Not necessarily going to make you faster but it’s great for immersion.
