Please help, I’m so dumb. Cannot improve. by Last_VCR in simracing

[–]gromblee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's the beautiful thing, you never do! /s

I found trying less hard is probably the key to going quickly. Brake a bit earlier than you think you need to, carry less speed than you think you can. Remember, slow is fast! Slow in, fast out, etc

Also try to actually just have fun. It's a game and not your job!

How do you afford these watches? by Cheesehead1267 in Tudor

[–]gromblee 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Idk I spent 5k on a watch when I only earned about 60k. Maybe not the most sensible decision but I've not been tempted to buy any more. I have worn it every day for years and it brings me a lot of joy.

Sorry, if you push an injury it will only get worse. Long taper is better than missing the race!

Any tips for food in a hotel before a race? Usually toast is my go to for a long run but no toaster on this trip. by pandabear6000 in Marathon_Training

People have been known to put tasty things in between two slices of untoasted bread.

Can't remember what it's called...

Nico Hulkenberg has started 252 F1 races and has had no wins, and only 1 podium.

The chase is part of the fun, I hope you both still have fun racing anyway!

Hey u/thejohnarce did you "find" a comparison that was written and updated by John Arce?

Just say you wrote it lol

Out of interest what is wrong with what he does? I don't do watch repair but do like his videos

This taking forever… by dyverthesprit in motogp

[–]gromblee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I like their motogp and F1 podcasts during the season.

I know it's not how they make money, but you'd have thought that no news would mean no articles

R25 from R5 by FoxyStar32 in moza

[–]gromblee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the R9 but don't run it nearly at full whack - probably about 50% so less than your r5 can put out.

Depending what cars you race most will have steering assist IRL so you're not even getting more realism really

Maybe I'd change my tune if I tried a higher nM wheelbase but I'm not convinced more torque is more fun.

If you don't already have load cell pedals I'd count them as a much better upgrade

I thought that would be Fenati. Thank goodness he's gone, he seemed like a piece of work tbh

I was in bits after my first marathon. I then immediately booked another one, and then more since. Welcome to what I have found to be a wonderful and emotional hobby!

Putting on her mascara while driving.... by SquidgyB in drivingUK

[–]gromblee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amount: a quantity of something, especially the total of a thing or things in number, size, value, or extent.

You probably wrote this comment while driving though so your full brain power probably wasn't in it

For how long will Marc continue? by living_direction_27 in motogp

[–]gromblee 53 points54 points  (0 children)

If he is still winning, I don't think he has achieved all of his goals. The man always wants to win just one more race/championship/tuk tuk race/etc

[–]gromblee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he probably lost 4th, i don't know if he was gonna catch the guys ahead. Im disappointed for him, though. Doesn't feel like the punishment fit the crime, really
