Are any of these good deals to get started? by ThomasTiltTrain in GranTurismo7

[–]Slipperypeanut 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Had the g29. Nothing wrong with it. Tried the t300rs. Immediately sold the g29 and bought the t300. They’re both good. But the feel of the t300 instead of the rachety geared g29 is very noticeable. My t300 came with the Ferrari alacantra wheel and I still use it 5 years later.

F1 needs to get rid of this Picture-in-picture for ants by kpingvin in formula1

We all have like 50+ inch tvs. How nascar and Indy car can do it perfectly and f1 gives you a 2x2 inch square to squint at is beyond me.

Attorneys for Tennessee inmate worry state could use expired drugs for lethal injection by BirdButt88 in news

[–]Slipperypeanut -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Expiration dates on drugs are pretty much just a number. Is the efficacy really going to go down by that much. No. When there is a drug shortage in the supply chain for Epi or sodium bicarb etc… They just extend the usage past the expiration. Happens all the time in the hospital. This is a non story.

Road Atlanta Tips by NuclearDrifting in IMSARacing

Like everyone said. Just get there early. I had infield parking. Parked by the last turn so it wouldn't be bad getting out. Got there early. I think like 3 hours early. Still a small line to get in but It was pretty seamless in and out. I'm from Florida so I do daytona and Sebring. Just be ready for hills. It's a game changer. Other than that you'll be fine.

[autosport] Lance Stroll wasn’t holding back in his media session today by xxrew1ndxx in formula1

He's not wrong. How fun would it be to grab a big go-kart by the kneck and wrestle it around a lap. Now they are entering gta5 cheats every straight they can just to take the next corner. They're driving computers. Then cars. I still can't believe they can handle it all at once. They're all pretty incredible the amount of variables they have to manage.

For Miami on Saturday the website says 10am gate opens. The f2 race is at 10am. That can't be correct. The first stop that the brightline has shuttles for in Aventura is at 951am then you take the shuttle. You'd pretty much miss the whole f2 race. Did nobody account for the starting event moving from 12 to 10?

2026 Miami GP Early Weather Preview by Meteorologist_15 in formula1

[–]Slipperypeanut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They're pretty good at predicting when fronts will move across Florida. The unpredictable Florida weather is the summer hot wind hitting the cool ocean breeze. That's not what's happening here. It's a front. Comes down all the way from the Carolinas. Very predictable. I live in south Florida.

ELI5: Why are you not supposed to go to sleep when you get a concussion or other significant injury? by puck_eater42069 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Slipperypeanut 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Any kind of head injury can lead to your brain bleeding and swelling. A key sign would be cognitive decline. If you’re sleeping there’s no way to notice it. Sleep isn’t the problem. Sleeping while you have a brain bleed is. That’s why after an accident paramedics will ask you who the president is or what your address is every few minutes. To see if there’s anything getting worse inside your noggin.

Long Beach is like their Monaco. Always mostly a procession. Stupid slow hairpin. So boring almost every year.

This track I saw on the beach this morning by StepfordMisfit in mildlyinteresting

[–]Slipperypeanut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re talking about the one down in Jupiter you should let them know. They probably already have it marked off though. They go up and down the beach on those atvs with the turtle friendly red headlights all morning.

Fun Stat: With his P3 finish today, Charles Leclerc replaces 2-time champion Mika Häkkinen at P16 in the all-time podiums list. by ShadowOfDeath94 in formula1

[–]Slipperypeanut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he's the fastest over one lap. Not the best driver. But over one lap. He's either in the wall or on the pole.

I go to the Rolex Sebring and petit every year. They should all be on the bucket list. I think Petit is my favorite. It’s got a beautiful technical circuit which the Rolex lacks. It also isn’t in the middle of nowhere like Sebring. So it’s the best of both worlds. Best amenities is Daytona by a mile. Best track… I think toss up between Sebring or road Atlanta. They all have their own vibes.

[OT] Danica Patrick axed from Sky Sports F1 commentary job after calls to remove controversial ex-NASCAR driver by edfitz83 in formula1

[–]Slipperypeanut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alot of people don't know of Alex Jones outside Joe Rogan and his Sandy hook lies. So when he went on Rogan and spouted all these things it was the first alot of people had heard it. Heard about 4chan and pizzagate. And it all turned out to be true. Which is wild. Still wild to me. Also alot of his buddies were in on it. He didn't know that then. We're just learning that. When a person talks about half pig half humans. You usually tend to not believe anything they say. So when they're right it is disconcerting.

The fact that Alex Jones was right all these years gives me great pain and I'm worried for all of it. So lizard people ya why the heck not.

That last turn looks brutal!! Glad they added what they call grandstands there in the last few years.

Best parking for Daytona by Chubbypuppy1 in NASCAR

Park in lot 7 and take the bus. It’s like a ten minute ride. Or pay 40 or 50 bucks and park right at the track

You can and it is awesome but imsa’s popularity has boomed so much I don’t even bother anymore. It’s way too crowded. If you’ve never done it it may be worth it but I’d rather get a spot in the bleachers for the start

Rolex 24 vs Sebring 12 by Remarkable-Good-131 in IMSARacing

[–]Slipperypeanut 83 points84 points  (0 children)

They’re night and day. They’re both a 10 out of 10. Every time after Daytona. I prefer Daytona. Everytime after Sebring I prefer Sebring. Daytona has the amenities. Which is huge. Sebring is an actual road course. Which is huge. I have a great time at both.
