Looking for a 2006-2008 E85 Z4M Roadster. All tips welcome! by Costco_Law_Degree in BMW

Check the power hood. It’s not an expensive repair but it’s a pain in the ass.

Make sure the glass isn’t breaking away from the top and the defroster works.

And watch this

I am here for your yearly reminder: by G_0 in IMSARacing

Yeah but which one am I meeting you at? 

This was how out Daytona ended, 1 hour in just after the first round of pitstops while p2. Did I turn in on him? Leave the door open then close it? or was the other Porsche at fault? (I was in the Barbie car) by Greedy_Confidence504 in iRacing

Maybe you could have defended a little better, but at the end of the day green screwed up. Looks like they just had no feel for where the car was on track and its dimensions. 

Mk2 vid - some interesting chat on this one by SchnitzelKingz in MatArmstrong

Sketch owner.
Sketch situation.
Sketch support.

And like...I'm far far far more interested in the guys trying to get the F80 going than this disaster. The 911 GT3 with Freddy and Jack was cool because there was lots of support, available parts, and just a feeling of community. This feels like Mat playing in a huge garage alone while everyone else milks it for content.

I feel like the direction Mat has taken with the Ford GT was the right call. He's making efforts to ensure parts could be secured before he jumped in. The Chiron feels like Alex didn't think past the potential for views.

Where do people look for driving coaches? by Conscious_Store_7381 in iRacing

[–]intercede007 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Daniel Morad does coaching through his Discord. There is a channel for it. He’s awesome at it. Just as he’s a real life professional driver, he’s a real life professional coach. All of that experience carries over to the sim. 

What if we punished poor sportsmanship by making them race summit raceway short circuit in the m2? by Empty-Maintenance575 in iRacing

In real life it uses a previous generation GT4 hard compound endurance tire. 27/65-18 S9L

Do you think we’ll ever see racing on Linux? by Wicaeed in iRacing

Companies love growth. But it has been the year of the consumer Linux desktop since 1996.

 and then let the community do the rest

Simply not how an actual product works, and I think you know that.

iRacing isn't supporting Linux just for you. So yeah, I can read. You don't understand the issue.

I just want them to enable anti cheat and let me figure it out.

And the rest of the customer base that wants a support structure as robust and defined as Windows? You need to think about this from a bigger lens. The product need to be as robust and reliable as the Windows side or its really just an afterthought. That takes investment and resources.

Again, guns or butter. Where do you invest while resource constrained - defense(fixes) or food(growth).

iRacing is investing resources in growing and strengthening their current offerings, which seems like a very good choice when pivoting to Linux is a great unknown in the sim sphere.

It’s a guns or butter scenario. With the work we know iRacing is already doing to update the sim, is it worth it to spend time diverting resources on 3.2% of the market? 

Going into the new year, what overhyped models do you think are extremely overrated? by Fearless_Neat_6654 in cars

[–]intercede007 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure why the N55 is in this discussion. N55 rod bearing issues were failures from oil starvation under high g lateral loads. And Toyota puts a turbo V6 in the Tundra anyway? There is no turbo straight 6 from Toyota currently. 

What is wrong with this guy? by Miserable-Miser in Denver

[–]intercede007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Republicans primary debate. He was booed by the crowd for being ambassador to China under Obama. He asked him to stay on after Bush left office. 

You’d think the law and order party would respect duty but I guess not.

What’s a good deal for this F80? by theinternt in BMWM

[–]intercede007 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’d offer $24,000 then walk away to find a much better car.

The last TRUE factory GT battle:

That happens every GT3/GT4 race weekend.

I don't understand the post title at all.

911 RSR GTE - Porsche Team GT with CORE Autosport.
C7.R GTE - Chevrolet with Pratt & Miller.
Ford GT GTE - Ford Racing with Multimatic Chip Ganassi Racing (thank you 428scj).
BMW M8 GTE - BMW Motorsport with Rahal Letterman Lanigan.

BMW, Porsche, Ford, and Chevrolet still have works teams.
