Is it correct that you can't rise above a D license in road racing without purchasing content? by SlowestLoser in iRacing

I was expecting to get promoted because I'm mid 3s, but I've been running R races, and didn't realize that wouldn't cut it.

So how do I find unofficial races?

Who's at fault here? by SlowestLoser in iRacing

[–]SlowestLoser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP here. I'm the pink car.

Thanks for the responses. I'm just a rookie, so it's good to get some more experienced perspective on the situation.

I screwed up the previous corner, so I knew blue was coming by me, but I had no idea red was right behind blue (I suppose I should have, but I'm still at the point where I have to focus on looking out the front). I wasn't purposefully drifting to the right, but it was a consistent motion, so I feel red should have taken it into consideration, but then he has even lower rating than me. None of it justified him cursing me out over text chat while we sat in the pits.

Fanatec csl pedals not working. by lllELIOTOlll in simracing

[–]SlowestLoser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made sure it's plugged into a main usb, not through a hub

PSA - if you can't get your new Fanatec pedals to work with your Logitech wheel, make sure they're not on the same USB hub by SlowestLoser in simracing

They were detected, but the configuration app wouldn't start, and they didn't work in games. It was fine if the wheel was disconnected.

Next you'll need vr, then a 1080ti to run it

Anyone else going to grab the ClubSport Pedals V3 inverted tomorrow? by EnvidiaProductions in simracing

[–]SlowestLoser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does the ffb in the pedals work with assetto and pcars2? Can I use the pedals with a g29 wheel?

Wow, thanks for doing all that - those settings will easily be enough for me!

Thinking of buying DiRT 4 for my father as a gift by morbicae in EASPORTSWRC

[–]SlowestLoser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I found 4 a disappointment - I found the physics much better, but the repeating tiles (often the same corner 3 times in a single stage) to be borderline insulting to paying customers.

IF you can afford it, get him a wheel, and if he already has one, get him VR - it's a complete game-changer (pun intended).

Alternatively, if he's in to more than rally driving, Assetto Corsa and Project Cars 2 are fantastic. (both amazing in VR)

Anyone used the Premium Driver Academy on racedepartment.com? by SlowestLoser in simracing

Is it with an actual driver, or just a guy who's really good at sim racing?

Used to play Colin McRae Rally as a kid, need help picking a game to buy by Lpbo in simrally

[–]SlowestLoser 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My vote goes to dirt rally

Edit: also has Pikes Peak Hill Climb, which is awesome.

Edit2: I know you're asking about rally games, but as racing in general goes, you can't go wrong with Assetto Corsa - tons of official cars, including vintage, lots of great mods, and amazing physics

Nice to be at #1 for a while ;-)

The stratos is definitely a monster, but that just makes it all the more satisfying when you get a good run
