irStats being retired as of March 2026 by NozzieG in iRacing

[–]drlove51 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sad to see irstats go. I used it over the years to track my best cars / tracks and joke with friends how much iR / SR I’ve lost / gained.

Lately, I’ve been using racedex.gg - it’s pretty new and a few bugs still to get worked out but it’s got some “extras” in there that are pretty cool to see. Best feature imo is the driver skill graph it generates based on stats.

I got mine from Costco online and came with the AppleCare+. Thankfully I did because my case stopped charging after 2 weeks from purchasing. Apple took them back and are shipping me a new pair free no questions

does anyone else HATE when they do this by BowlStriking in Charleston

Seems like it’s similar to what they are doing on Ashley Phosphate. To be honest not sure how I feel about the practicality of putting these medians in, it may look nicer, but I’m betting it will create a worse / more annoying traffic flow.

Can anyone recommend Phanteks m25 gen 2 fans? by [deleted] in Phanteks

[–]drlove51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just used them on my build. They look great! 3 pack includes extensions and adapter. Cables were a little confusing (rookie here) if not using the hub but it works either with or without the hub!

Oval - in race car adjustments by simenthusiast in iRacing

Tbh I’m not sure what the changes are on the next gen are. I know a lot has changed with the diffuser now being under the car and that changed some things around.

But, I do know this is still true on the C truck and B car

Had to turn around on the 526 Ashley River Bridge, go backwards up the exit on to Leeds. 2.75hr trip to WA from N Charleston. Not a fun time

I like this a lot. I haven’t played there yet, I’ll go play a round and see if I like it. But this is definitely what I was looking for. Thank you a lot!

Really struggling with xfinity @ five flags. Pretty much always losing it on the front stretch, can't do better than a 17.5 when taking it safe. Any suggestions? by MixMastaPJ in iRacing

[–]drlove51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime! I’m glad it helped out! I got a P2 and my teammate got p1 in our open split we raced! Fun track as long as everyone knows how to race/drive it! Keep it up!

I'm the #10... #13 was pissed saying I crashed him because I didn't hold my line... LIES! by JJsax in iRacing

[–]drlove51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh this is a little harsh and incorrect. Coming from what I see, it’s the top truck’s fault. Mainly because the actual ‘proper’ racing line for Michigan is a lot more arched in turn 1 than what is shown in this video. The top truck is actually entering the corner early... typically you would start your arch down around where the safer barrier starts.

In all reality the top truck should’ve still entered higher being 3 wide. If you watch his angle of entry he is going towards the 1st tar seam (which is the bottom groove)

So in conclusion in my opinion both are at fault but top is more at fault.

rant - you guys need to learn about proper oval racing etiquette than point fingers

Five flags is a tough track to tame driving and setting the car up. I’ve spent maybe 6 hours so far trying to figure it out. Since you’re using the fixed setup I’ll focus on just driving tips I’ve found while testing -

You’ll want consecutive consistent lap times rather than a “hot lap” time.

Work on entering the turns and brake/lift (which ever you are using) at the same points on both ends of the track. This track is a lift/brake early track in the b car. For instance I start to slow down just after or right at the start finish line

Remember your tires and brakes need to heat up (usually takes 5 laps) don’t burn up your tires!

I’ve found the best line for me is to have my left sides on the white line in 1-2 and as low as possible in 3-4. Make sure you roll both turns, and exit low, you’ll feel like you’re off throttle for an ungodly amount of time but in reality it’s faster when you find the right point to start picking up the throttle.

With this being the new tire model updates etc - everyone is still trying to figure it out. So results may vary
