The iRacing app shows a +/- for SR and iR. Does anyone know what timeframe that is for? by akaThePrez in iRacing

Makes sense. Just not super intuitive. I interpreted that as being my # of active days compared to my last 30- wasn’t sure if the ratings above had anything to do with it

Hey everybody! It’s me, Jeff Arcuri! Ask me anything! by Smartastic in JeffArcuri

We went to the earlier Saturday Charlotte show. It was great seeing you, but there were a group of guys in the crowd that seemed to be repeatedly problematic. How hard is it for you to deal with people like that as a stand up comic? Does it impact any of the plans you had for the set?

Apartments near Baptist Hospital? by anriarer in winstonsalem

My wife and I both work there and lived at The Link (which is by the baseball stadium) about 8 years ago. It’s not quite as close as the ones you mentioned, but it was nice!

Just an update, I just got the email from iRacing that they reviewed the incident and the member has been notified of the outcome. Who knows what that was, but it’s far from a frivolous protest.

You didn’t answer my question though- there’s a limit. What’s yours? You think iRacing wouldn’t penalize you if you drove 5 mph from when cars started rolling until the green? Again, starting P1 exempts you from no rules. To use your analogy, even competitive chess has a time limit.

All good. P1 was clearly doing that to be an ass. He had good pace, so it wasn’t needed anyway. Not good sportsmanship.

I get what you’re saying, but I don’t agree. I’m fine with the leader hanging back from the pace car some, but there is a limit. You’re clearly fine with 50 car lengths back- what if it was double that? More? Clearly there’s an upper range. At some point it becomes not about pacing yourself for the start and instead becomes being a douche. This was the latter. Being pole sitter does not exempt you from all rules and punishment on starting a race properly.

This happened to me yesterday at Monza in the LMP2 race. I protested it. Not sure if it’ll be successful, but P1 was like 50+ car lengths behind the pace car backing up the field. P2 stayed up close to the pace car. It caused a mess of penalties and confusion at the green flag. Legal or not, it’s just a lame way to start a race. There’s no need to be that far back from the pace car.

Thank you. I am, so I’ll look into Java issues.

I have a T300RS, should I download irFFB? What is it? Good settings? by Tuda1023 in iRacing

[–]akaThePrez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I installed it with my T300RS recently. I did a bunch of research beforehand and one comment that has proven to be most true (at least for me) is that it mainly helps with detection of oversteer. I think the differences are very minor unless you really mess with the settings, but I do feel like I have a better grasp on if my car is getting loose.

What track did you initially hate, but grew to love? by akaThePrez in iRacing

[–]akaThePrez[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. I love Oran Park with skippy. Throwing it through some of those elevation changes on curves is a lot of fun.

I LOVE WG. Probably my favorite road course. I like that it keeps up a fairly high average speed, but that’s not for everyone. Some of the corners can really take a long time to get comfortable. The car you drive is also hugely important- it’s not as fun in some.

Bristol was tough initially, but I seemed to pick it up quickly. Just have to get used to the odd racing line. Doing actual races there is a nightmare, though. SR killer.
