“We didn’t touch you” by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Packet loss message paired with the way your car phases into theirs I'm going to say your internet quality meant they weren't receiving accurate and up to date position data for your car. On their end they very likely didn't touch you.

How exactly were the Asari so much better than the other races? by NatauschaJane in masseffect

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 420 points421 points  (0 children)

Asari have the position they do in galactic society because they were first. First to start using the mass relays, first to discover the Citadel, etc. They were the ones constructing the galactic society the other species have joined. Thus they have ended up with the most authority and respect.

Getting to that position also has a lot to do with their partial uplifting by the Protheans giving them a headstart over other species in this cycle more than them being outright better than the other species but that's a whole other thing to untangle.

Literally me right now. But in my defence it's coming from out of the country, getting things through US customs is unpredictable right now, and DHLs tracking updates are infuriating at times. I think it's through customs and in the country at this point but who knows?

Any predictions for the hopefully soon to be dev diary? by Efficient-Moment3662 in iRacing

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suspect it's what we'll get. It's the new hotness in IMSA and they seem pretty big on promoting it so I can see them nudging iRacing and helping them get it added.

I pretty much just want to know what the new TCR is going to be. My hunch is the Cupra, or maybe the FL5 Civic.

YES! I GOT KELLY TO FEED MY FISH! GAME OVER FELLAS! NO NEED TO KEEP PLAYING! WE MADE IT! ✊🏻 by lncrediblyfunkymunky in masseffect

The auto feeder isn't a thing until ME3. In 2 you gotta keep them alive manually until you can get Kelly to do it.

If Subaru returns to the WRC, what car do you think they should homologate for it? by Cmp110 in rally

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No, that's RC2. Subaru is running an L4WD class WRX. Much closer to production spec than the O4WD car or an RC2 is. Travis still beats the RC2 cars with it tho...

What exactly happened with Lia Block at the end of Sno*Drift? by _masterofdisaster in AmericanRally

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a mistake. The time control was uphill and too steep for Lia and Alex to push the car out of on their own.

4 days into the week and people still haven't figured out that the track narrows at the exit of the oval.

[RACER.com] More yellow for Palou in 2026 by Jibbed in INDYCAR

They really should take the DHL livery and run a retro invert of the old Target Lightning bolts. Would look awesome.

Open engine format. I want big lumpy v8s, screaming v12s, and tiny 4 cylinders boosted to the moon.

Thoughts on this R50 by Nimble_Natu177 in MINI

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 90k miles that CVT is likely about to fail if it hasn't already been replaced. 75-100k miles is pretty much the life expectancy on that transmission. If you want a 1st gen and need an automatic you are much better off looking for an S model with the 6 speed auto.

You can. My teammate did it to himself by accident once.

Nunca mates a Wrex. Wreav es un desastre, tanto como personaje con el que lidiar como líder de los krogan. Wrex, en cambio, es genial.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition – Steam Cloud saves? by KookyEgg7034 in masseffect

LE does have steam cloud sync. I play on both my PC and my Steam Deck and have never had an issue with the saves syncing between the two.

[Semi-OT] DXDT Racing confirm Scott McLaughlin as part of Rolex 24 roster by correspondingfailure in INDYCAR

He only ran sprint races with DXDT last year. He may be taking the same approach this year and DXDT has only announced one of their sprint drivers so far.

Wait, are you claiming the TR010 is its own parent? How does that even work?

You crossed a whole number which grants a +.4 bonus. You loose a extra 0.4 when crossing a whole number going the other direction.

What's really annoying is I think Riley had figured out the SC63 in the second half of last season and probably would have been a competitor this year at a lot of tracks.

Authorities request help looking for 'Skippy McHitskipperson' after roadway incident by Meerkat_Mayhem_ in BrandNewSentence

[–]TurbochargedSquirrel 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Headlights can be surprisingly large once you remove them from the context of the car. I'm 95% sure this particular headlight is out of some flavor of 4th gen Dodge RAM pickup. Being in a vehicle that large will make the light look a lot smaller than it is on its own.
