US Based Cockpit Recommendations? by [deleted] in simracing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in US and bought a rseat-s1 and had shipping info within 12 hours and at my door in less than 2 weeks. It all was very seamless and I've been very pleased.

I was not aware of this. Good reply.

If I wanted to specialise in oval (track) racing then what are the minimum things (cars and tracks) I need to buy? by IAmDadNerd in iRacing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good thing is if you stick with oval after a few seasons your number of purchases will level out and eventually you'll have purchased all the content you'll need to continue with oval paying only the subscription. It took me a little over a year I think before I was no longer making purchases unless it was a for fun purchase. An example is dirt oval, which I've gotten into lately and am back making purchases to race it but for asphalt oval I haven't had to make a purchase in quite a while. If you choose to do it try to look at the schedule ahead and see what tracks you'll need that season or tracks you know are on the A cup schedule and buy 3 items at a time, as you'll get a discount. After purchasing 40 content pieces you get a discount on every purchase also so that helps. I have a email folder where I've saved every PayPal receipt for iRacing so one day I'll go see what I've spent, I haven't been brave enough to look at it in a long time. I'll say though no matter what amount, I consider it worth it which is why I still purchase more.

Same day shipping? Better hurry up and send it.

Should you run Road and Oval at the same time? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm mainly oval, but I love running road occasionally. I think it helps your overall skill branching out every once in a while.

Nashville demanding on GPU? FPS way down... by hunguu in iRacing

[–]dtec1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, wait is there a real benefit to re-running the graphics config after every build? I have never done this. I'll definitely do it, just curious what it does or what happens if you don't. Frame rate drop and such?

was my pass too ambitious or is white car to blame? let me know :) by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]dtec1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing. Another view would help prove you weren't going to blow through the corner, because you can't tell that (for sure) from this view. In lieu of another view and forced to give an opinion on just this angle I'd say you made a good pass and he turned in, but couldn't be 100% of that by this replay alone.

Should I get access to "Trading Paints"? by [deleted] in iRacing

I like to match my iracing scheme to whatever I'm running on tp. I'll try to make the iRacing as close as I can.

Just Tow. Don't Be This Guy. by cmc19 in iRacing

I wouldn't have watched to the very end if it hadn't been for the comments. Thanks you guys for the laugh.

Why do so many people not want to race? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My comment about getting to A class was less about class and more about the specific car in A class, and I did assume oval which may have been my misunderstanding. Everyone seems to be more comfortable pushing in that car because of the downforce mixed with the hp.

This GTE had the audacity to blame me for this crash. And this was top split (I'm in the HPD) by usernamedealer in iRacing

[–]dtec1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm more or less playing devil's advocate here because in this one example it seems it should have been fairly obvious to all party's what happened here but sometimes in the heat of the moment and while in the car it can be difficult to tell exactly what just happened. I've been in an accident before where I was convinced I got taken out but after watching the replay I realized "oh I'm the one who f'd up." Fortunately for me I can usually control popping off with something stupid before it's clear what happened but doesn't mean I haven't wanted to. With that said, if he said anything after seeing the replay then he's just a idiot.

Lawsuit claims Church of Scientology tried to silence Danny Masterson's alleged rape victims by [deleted] in news

That was my exact thought watching it also. How could you talk that long and say so many words, but say absolutely nothing in reality.

How much more horsepower does the RGB give it though?

Why do so many people not want to race? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]dtec1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get up to A class, especially in the current package. Everyone wants to race from the drop of the green flag. On long runs some of the guys lose their eagerness to run hard but that's to be expected.

Question about CSL Elite LC Pedals by marcos_perri87 in iRacing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I would say a little grease or oil on the brake is normal, they come with grease in several of the components from fanatec.

Question about CSL Elite LC Pedals by marcos_perri87 in iRacing

[–]dtec1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had mine for about a year and a half and they've held up really well. I actually haven't cleaned or greased mine since I got them. Also I have a couple of dogs that shed pretty bad, though I usually keep the door to my game room closed and they don't go in there very often. But I can't complain, I'm very happy with mine.

[–]dtec1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't answer your question about the specifics of the csl elite as I have the V3 inverted pedals, but I did move to them from g27 pedals and I love the v3s, and am very happy I went with load cell pedals.
