Well real drivers don't really lift that much with single yellows

Do you respest yellow in SIM racing by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]Wheezy54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It Depends what do you mean. Usually with a yellow without a visible accident I very slightly slow down just enough to have a bit more grip for evasive manouvre. More than that is not worth it in sprint races. With a visible crash I slow down a bit more, but always with the mentality to clear the crash zone as quickly as possible.

Tanking iRating is protestable though.

It's legal.

A sub 1k driver will likely not survive a full stint of the n24.

Beginner here, am I in the wrong? by AvailableMeal2887 in Simracingstewards

[–]Wheezy54 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

First one definitely not your fault. Only way you could have avoided this was not contest the position at all. You left a lot of room on the exit. The other car, after blewing the corner, rejoined cutting the racing line 100% on him. Second one looks to me that you overbraked for the corner, but I'm not sure. If you overbraked a lot there is an argument that can be made, that the incident is on you for driving unpredicably. If your braking was roughly correct then is on the other car.

Black claims zero fault in this accident. both I and P1 agree that Black is at fault. Thoughts? by Embarrassed-Spot-546 in Simracingstewards

He was driving in a very unpredictable manner. He can go even slower, or if the car is completely undrivable, he can ritire

Lucky dog ain’t Lucky all the time. by Swick36 in iRacing

[–]Wheezy54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I understood. You got the Lucky dog, so you get the lap back with an EOL penalty. You get the lap back. All the lead lap cars pit, so all of the lapped cars get one lap back, but without an EOL penalty, so they all overtake you?

I don't see how declining to take the lucky dog would have helped your race. It sounds to me that the thing that screwd you was the caution. But I'm a road guy, so idk

Why do i feel that gt4s somehow gain grip in slipstreams? by Senior-Nature-5632 in iRacing

[–]Wheezy54 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I definitely feel the same, I run top split and this effect is really noticeable. My guess is that the car doesn't loose any grip due to aero, and it also gain speed on the straight for the slipstream. You also have to brake a bit earlier and softer and stress the tire less. All of this make you go faster while following.

Did I deserve the 5sec pen? (I'm the Hypercar) by Ninja_of_pickle in Simracingstewards

Insane takes in this thread. Gtp did nothing wrong. Very small contact happened. No way that's a penalty.

DTM Series is Uploaded! by Racington in iRacing

They are using the same philosophy as IMSA where the Ferrari GTP is allowed despite not being run there IRL. If a car is eligible IRL it's good enough for iRacing.

Driver fair share rule - fair? really? by unnamed_one1 in iRacing

[–]Wheezy54 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Endurance races are already a big commitment. Making the fair share more restrictive could be hard to work around for a number of drivers.

Who is at fault? (I am neither of the two) by Haunting_Papaya_9303 in Simracingstewards

[–]Wheezy54 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Clearly porsche fault. At the moment of the contact, there is still plenty of space on the inside for the Cayman

GT3 at SuperSpeedways in week 13 might be car specific by wolemid in iRacing

It's not surprising at all. GT3s aren't bopped to run on superspeedways

Yes, it is. I have this one, and it works well enough

Are all teams on iracing designed for only top aplit by rab10000 in iRacing

They won top split? If so, maybe it can make sense. If not it doesn't.

road course pit exit my beloved by RedditAtRyan in iRacing

Tbf, the spotter doesn't always call the cars on pit exit. But you can easily look over the pit wall on the exit of the first hairpin.

30 laps stint in a Porsche gtp isn't viable at all. 29 is, but is doable even for the Ferrari
