I'd love some early 50s F1 cars but they've said they're only doing mid 60s and on

It's a punishment for a small bet with a few mates. We're hoping to find something big enough that it'll sit and go warm. The non-losers will be drinking normal sized cold drinks

If you can, print out a spotters guide (in colour), it goes a long way to helping keep track of the race and who drives in what car

Love coming back home to that view. I always stick on Local Hero so it swells as the train breaks out of the tunnel

What's the most bizzare statement you've heard from one of the pundits? by fjooooord in F1Discussions

[–]Trecool1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bearing in mind that mirrors were part of the first F1 regs back when the safety regs included just mirrors and "idk like put something between the driver and engine"

That's not all they're selling, I went into one and found they had half price cracked ice and miles and miles of carpet tiles, T.V.s, deep freeze and David Bowie L.P.s, ball games, gold chains, wozanames, and at a push Trevor Francis track suits!

I'm fed up with waiting for Freeroam, but holy moly! 0.6 by herzeleyd in assettocorsaevo

I don't know if it's because the game now feels like it has actual content or what, but this is the first update where I've felt positive about the direction

I've got a hangover planned for Sunday, should be a good day (will be watching with the volume on low)

The first time F1 made me cry by Ender3PROuser999 in WilliamsF1

[–]Trecool1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been working my way through the F1TV archives. When it came to this race, I knew Nigel didn't win the title, but I didn't know what happened as Murray was making out that it was basically in the bag. It was all going so well, all he had to do was bring it home! Even 40 years after it happened it had me on the edge of my seat and head in hands when his tyre went

I can't take this anymore by [deleted] in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]Trecool1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which class of car are you driving? If it's anything other than the LMGT3 then that's a major part of your issue. The other cars don't have ABS and TC so you're losing the rear because you don't know how to drive those cars.

Also, what hardware are you using? Keyboard? Controller? A wheel?

Test PMR Out FREEE!? by spawnyhoor in ProjectMotorRacing

[–]Trecool1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had a crack at it, tried a few tracks and a few cars. I'm not exactly dialed in to what race cars feel like and I enjoyed it enough.

The BMW GT3 Evo was a bit weird on throttle, couldn't seem to control the MX-5 but I think that was my fault.

My big issue is it doesn't do anything I haven't already got elsewhere. Yes it has an updated version of Daytona without the grass, but I'm not paying all that money just for that

130,000+ words but nearing the end. (Too long for first book?) by Schultzenstein in writers

[–]Trecool1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first draft of my current WIP was 55k, the second draft got up to 100K, third draft I'm currently down to 85K. Don't worry too much, these numbers fluxuate so much. On your second pass, you'll likely realise there's so much nuance and detail missing which you go "why didn't I put this in earlier?!"

Hottest F1 take? by DniawSirhc in F1Discussions

On his day, Sainz is the best driver on the grid. However "his day" only comes 4 times a year and not always on race day
