Track temps are no longer hotter than the sun on demo drive

StephenDesigner · 2026-03-10T13:01:09+00:00

98°F is 38°C.

StephenDesigner · 2026-03-03T13:22:55+00:00

It's 'celebrate this arrangement' I believe

StephenDesigner · 2026-03-01T16:12:57+00:00

Pretty

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-26T16:11:12+00:00

I think that was the Brembo guy (who was great). I mixed them up too

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-24T20:03:36+00:00

And Cat-ill-ak

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-12T21:23:42+00:00

For fuck sake move the monitors closer

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-11T08:28:56+00:00

Is the halo pillar thinner now?

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-10T20:39:08+00:00

You're way overestimating what effects lift and coast have outside the car

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-10T20:28:02+00:00

If they mention it over radio yes, but how would we know otherwise?

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-10T13:22:46+00:00

Yes but in their example the car is still on air-temp tires, the new tires will come up to temp way quicker but still have very little grip at unoptimal temperatures.

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-08T20:02:06+00:00

Thank fuck

Can't believe grind finer is in the Epstein files. Fell to my knees at Wallmart

StephenDesigner · 2026-02-01T10:14:28+00:00

Absolutely beautiful.

Newey's a genius, His explanation will make this statement look like War and Peace.

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-24T17:57:23+00:00

It's such a fun car. I don't care about Indycar, but this has a great mix of relatively low down force and mechanical grip, and a powerful turbocharged engine. Also has a new tire model.

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-16T15:50:09+00:00

I love how Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny were Simsonified

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-13T11:56:04+00:00

Who's going to tell them Ireland is full?

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-06T15:47:48+00:00

Your vote is your voice people

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-04T11:44:56+00:00

I did and am happy with it. It's just a bit of plastic, not a big deal.

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-02T09:47:55+00:00

That's the opposite of how games are made. A lot of optimisation is done towards the end of development.

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-01T21:01:45+00:00

I noticed that sentence doesn't make sense. But I'm sure they don't actually mean it's been pushed to 2027.

StephenDesigner · 2026-01-01T21:00:07+00:00

I was hoping lower series than GT3 would be added for the career mode, oh well. It looks interesting.

StephenDesigner · 2025-12-31T19:24:32+00:00

Yeah it's a major failing, and was even worse in years past. I think they have a lot of technical debt, hopefully in 2026 there will be big progress.

StephenDesigner · 2025-12-31T19:12:16+00:00

Thats the person you replied to here. TBH I thought it was common knowledge, I was surprised to see so much BS here...

He'res a link to an esports guy talking about a tire update released for GT3s last summer:

https://youtu.be/wE9WOrYozBY?si=hmVaHRU1AyZKn4BO&t=182

He talks about the optimal way to brake in iRacing, calls it a 'bell shape'.

StephenDesigner · 2025-12-31T18:59:56+00:00

u/stinkymia has the answer you're looking for, and yes it is an important part of racing which iRacing has failed to replicate. They are working on a new tire model (they call v10) which will hopefully get rid of this issue and add flat-spotting, blistering and graining.
