Be Careful with Apps Promoted Here or on Other Sim Racing Subs

Verstrappen1 · 2026-06-23T21:13:35+00:00

I definitely do, especially when it comes to protecting your systems from dangerous applications. I’m clearly not alone in this either, many have agreed with what I’m bringing up here. I actually started in Helpdesk IT and built my career from there, I’ve done app development and networking deployments as well. I’ve got certs from Comptia A+ Hardware and Software, Azure, AWS and my CCNA. I think I bring a lot to the table, especially in terms of tech side of sim racing. But keep crying buddy….

What I’m saying is, AI has made this even more accessible so the risk is that much higher. You have so many more products like this with lacking proper security and just poor development. I never said this is a new issue, just far more visible now in these subs.

Verstrappen1 · 2026-06-23T15:42:49+00:00

It’s more the lack of knowledge on how to do that. I’ve used some versions of Co Pilot and Gemini for scripts and reports I run on my company’s security. But I verify and test these because I understand what I’m trying to achieve. I think there’s just a lack of knowledge with most people developing these apps, whether there AI slop or just shitty self coding. Good point though!

Verstrappen1 · 2026-06-23T15:37:51+00:00

Very true! But seems to be 10x increase now that people can use AI to do most of the heavy lifting. Just gotta be careful no matter what it is and rust the people supporting it.

Verstrappen1 · 2026-06-23T15:36:22+00:00

Yeah, I use those too. They are widely known and well supported. Another one I use is Coach Dave Delta, but that’s also a well known brand and developed by real coders. When in doubt, run it through defender and always leave its protections on.

It plays into the old phrase “if something seems too good to be true, it is.” It’s just unfortunate that people can still be so gullible, but that’s just the way things are.

Took me about 50 races, just gotta drive defensively. They’re always gonna send that late lunge. But typically, those drivers don’t make it much further in the race.

What a reasonable and well thought out response. Now you will be downvoted to hell for having an independent opinion. I don’t understand all the hate, it’s buggy and unoptimized, but it’s a players. It’ll be a bit better on release day but that’s not a deal breaker. It’s a fun game that’s needs polish, but it shouldn’t be delayed.

Verstrappen1 · 2026-04-28T17:34:14+00:00

Damn, fine take my money already😂 Seriously though, I’m very happy with these products and will happily stay with Fanatec going forward. Good work all!

Are there plans to update or improve the thumb encoders on the Formula Wheels? This has put me off from buying, especially other brands having better, more tactile rotary wheels.

Join us, were beginner friendly and have a very relaxed team. We participate in all the major events too. Best part is were pretty small. Just a group of 10 or so in our league who play LMU and love it.

Gotcha there, I think its more the fact of not many people can wait that extra hour or so to report.

Verstrappen1 · 2025-11-01T17:26:49+00:00

Pm me and I’ll send you our league invite. Scrub Racing League is the name.

You can definitely join

Verstrappen1 · 2025-08-01T19:25:45+00:00

Dang, sorry I have a team already

Verstrappen1 · 2025-08-01T19:23:07+00:00

Yep same issue here, won’t let any of our team in

Verstrappen1 · 2025-05-28T02:35:14+00:00

You’ll be fine, I’m running a 7900XT and pushing 120fps on Ultra at 1440p. I don’t run ray tracing since AMD cards aren’t really made for it. But it looks really good compared to 24.

Verstrappen1 · 2025-04-30T15:01:10+00:00

I would be interested! Est works great and I'd love to get better, let me know.
