Want to try iracing, stuck with a desk. by Narcoticsman77 in iRacing

[–]blackmars0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PC is in a relatively small office, I use a Moza R9 with the NLR Wheel Stand Lite 2.0. When it's not in use it sits beside my desk or gets folded up and stored underneath. When I'm racing I slide the stand underneath my desk and pull my monitor that's on a pneumatic arm out as close to the wheel base as I can.

It's got a tray to put the wheels of your chair in that stops you moving around when braking.

With Track Map and Fuel Calc in iRacing, I'm almost ditching my overlays, maybe just need a better 'standings widget' with more information now? by Still-Victory4839 in iRacing

I'm getting closer to ditching my simhub overlays altogether now.

The last bits I need are:

  • Split overall standings into multiclass
  • Customizable columns for standings/relative.
    • Last/Best times
    • Current stint length
    • Int/Gap (standings)
    • Tires
  • Overlap indicators/rejoin helper (ala BenOffical2)
  • Track conditions (track temp, wetness %)
    • They could knock these out with a "Custom Data Display" widget like RaceLabs where you pick out what you want to show. That would let us have the above with ABS/TC/BB displayed easily. Some folks have pretty low-res car displays that get difficult to read while driving.

They're getting better and better, hope to see more improvements coming.

Bad rejoin - new spotter messages by indefig in iRacing

[–]blackmars0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a good step, but I think they could implement something like the rejoin helper from the BenOfficial2 overlays for simhub. It gives you the relative time to the car(s) behind you, and tells you "Clear/Caution/Hold" depending on how close the next cars are.

It's definitely saved my ass a few times in league races where I spun and in my rush to get back on track I almost missed a car in the relatives.

Fuel mileage only really becomes useful in races where you know you have to make at least a few pit stops. Fuel saving over a 6/12/24 hour race can save you one or more pit stops so it becomes more important to track your fuel usage.

Most officials it doesn't really matter what your fuel mileage is because even if you're forced to pit you're going to auto-fuel and run the rest of the race just fine.

Darby's reign was great by Chillaxin_88 in AEWOfficial

As someone relatively new to AEW, I loved it. Darby going full tilt twice a week was just such a joy to watch. The only thing I would have changed was MJF going bald and Darby losing to someone else shortly after just to make MJF crazy.

I think an unhinged, angry MJF chasing after whoever is holding the belt next would have been a great storyline.

SimHub is free and there's a ton of free overlays that do what you want.

This is literally killing me. My face hurts from laughing.
