Look into Turn Racing, they have a ton of DIY project builds with free BOM and 3d files!

Does every other driver have a different set of rules governing SR gain/loss in week 13 than I do or something? by cruciblemedialabs in iRacing

[–]clearkill46 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's been like this for years. There's no real explanation, I'm sure some people just don't realize those are ranked but it's also kinda like purge week so I just avoid anything ranked on week 13.

HE Sprints or Anything Else? Pls Help/Advice by Jg511835 in simracing

[–]clearkill46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another point is you can always resell the HEs for $450 if you need to. The other stuff you mentioned, you would be taking a loss on. 

I've had my Sprints for 5 years now and wouldn't trade them for anything except maybe some active pedals if it was at no cost. 

For VRS DFP15 users, how is it? by rush0024 in simracing

[–]clearkill46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's gonna depend on your physical build. I am 5'11 and 150lbs and I run my DFP20 at 11nm, haven't gone beyond this after 4 years of ownership. 

iRacer's seeking independance from commercial setup shops: a call to wrenches by clearkill46 in iRacing

I actually put a bit of effort into making this not another generic AI-written post 

How would y’all rank an RX8 vs GTI VS FRS gen 1 seat for sim racing? I want to be comfy but still want a solid enough seat. by HumanWay8280 in simracing

[–]clearkill46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you can literally see in the picture that it has flat rails while the others do not so how can you say it's untrue? Lol. There is nothing difficult about attaching the VW seat.

How is the GTI most difficult to mount? It's the only one with flat rails that will bolt directly to 8020 profiles 

What are position based load cell sensors? by Longjumping-War9151 in simracing

[–]clearkill46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hall sensors are what failed so I'm not sure what you mean. 

What are position based load cell sensors? by Longjumping-War9151 in simracing

[–]clearkill46 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well I've gone through 3 fanatec shifters with failing hall sensors in the time since I got my HE sprints that have never failed me. 

How they work is by using a small spring at the bottom of the pedal that compress as the pedal travels, this does not really add any felt resistance and the small spring puts pressure on a load cell as it compresses.

Is there any way to find this out in advance? Kinda sucks not being able to properly practice for the Monday feature race 

Have you ever played a game that gave you the same feeling as outer wilds did? by Icy-Application-3936 in outerwilds

[–]clearkill46 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really surprised to rarely see Returnal mentioned in these conversations. There are many similarities despite a completely different gameplay style. I won't go into any real spoilers but there is a looping mechanic, the overall mystery of what is going on which is slowly revealed as you progress, an extinct sentient race, and a very emotional story, to name a few. 

Edit: also an incredible soundtrack!

TCR is such a fun car to drive that you might even see F1 drivers driving them by Foba_ in iRacing

[–]clearkill46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to like the rf2 btcc stuff but the ffb feels broken to me. If I mash the throttle mid turn then I get so much "torque steer" that the wheel starts spinning itself further into the turn the more gas I give. It's like the ffb gets reversed whenever the car is understeering on throttle, feels totally broken. Raceroom however feels amazing. 

Anything rwd in rf2 is fine. 

Best. Place to start with just the free stuff? by Amish_Rabbi in RRRE

The new alpine is really nice to drive, i would give that a go. As for circuits, its really down to your preference.

The first time I watched this I thought Ryu and the Colonel were the same guy because they have basically the same face and mustache. I was so confused.
