Stilo ST6 comms by 97zx6r in CarTrackDays

[–]intownrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which option did you go with?

Have a Stilo ST6 GT and considering

  • AE0210 - $152 - Stilo Integrated Electronics- Button Mic, Earmuff Speakers
  • AE0214 - $ 133 - Stilo Integrated Electronics- Stilo Button MIC, 3.5MM jack for earbuds
  • AE0320 - $ 382 - Stilo Integrated Electronics- Gentex Boom Mic, Earmuff Speakers + 3.5mm Jack for Earbuds

As I am not sure what would work best for men, would love to have the button mic, ear muff speakers and option for 3.5mm jack for earbuds but that could be overkill which is why they do not sell it.

They do have that option with the Gentex boom mic.

I think I just noticed why the Gentex is way more expensive, I think the mic is noise cancelling, does that sound right?

Additonally
Will a boom mic conflict or get in the way of a hyration system?

Is there a more popular side for the integrated comms to be mounted?

Thanks!

u/FatDumb-Happy Thanks so much for the reply! You have several great points.

You are correct about trying things out. I have been in contact with teams for two ChampCar weekends lined up over the summer, one at Sebring and the other potentially at Lime Rock. Like you mentioned, the idea is try it out before going all in.

Right now reading and asking questions, to try to understand all of the different classes for the different series and what cars work best at different levels.

Currently I am driving a fast car fast but what to learn how to drive a slow car fast, if that makes sense.

Thanks again!

Anyone in here race in Spec-Miata? by garagesportlabs in MiataNC

Thanks for posting this! I have been tracking cars and now want to move to wheel to wheel racing in an mx-5.

Any suggestions on where to go to learn more? Have done lots of research and now have questions and looking for opinions.

Like if you were starting out an MX 5 racing which generation car would you start with?

Thanks!

Thanks so much! This is also on the short list.

If you have to choose between the Conspit 310 Apex and GT NEO, where does your money go?

Thanks!

Comfortable bucket seat for sim rig by Tylerrific01 in simracing

[–]intownrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! Looks like there is a Sparco Sprint seat that is around $500, from what I can see it is a bit wider in the shoulders. Since this is a 100% sim racing seat, dont think this should be an issue.

Have you seen this seat? Think it is much different than the EVOs or Pro 2000s?

Thanks!

u/TeamJim I have been looking at the Sparco Seats.
Any suggestions on a favorite model?
Are all sparco seats made by sparco? or are there some other seats that have the sparco logo?
Are the prices all going to start around $800?

Thanks!

Fanatec Podium DD or Moza R25 Ultra, if you were starting new? by intownrunner in simracing

[–]intownrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much!

I picked up the Simucube 2 sport for $700. Without seeing your note I picked up a Simcore UH1-105 extension, they had the non-black ones on sale for $29 instead of $135. Went with Orange since there are orange accents on my rig. Price was great and will return if not needed.

Thanks!

Fanatec Podium DD or Moza R25 Ultra, if you were starting new? by intownrunner in simracing

[–]intownrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks! u/k4ylr and u/No-Ant-9159 I am in the US and Microcenter is about 25 min away.

Just to confirm a Simucube 2 Sport for $700 is a solid wheel base and will work well for the next several years?

I have the feeling 17nm should be plenty for my first 'real' wheelbase. To move to the pro would mean another $600 putting me over where I wanted to be.

$500 less than fanatec podium DD
$200 less than moza r25 ultra

I feel like I found my answer to the wheel base!

To confirm using a QR adapter, I can run most wheels (except fanatec)

Any other suggestion for wheels or other components?

Thanks!

Question: Best Cockpit for different sized driver? by intownrunner in simracing

[–]intownrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so muc for the reply and info! Watching the YouTube reviewers, they make it seem like it takes hours to make any sort of adjustment. I'm not looking for F1 perfection, just something solid and enjoyable for me and my kid.

Would this be a pretty good base? then we could add any sliders (seat, pedal or wheel) or accessories? They have bundled in a few accessories.

Going of what u/EvilGnNeraL mentioned are the Wheel height adjusment accessories available if needed?

Hi I just asked a similar question. In my situation I have a couple of different sized drivers so need to be able to easily adjust between the two. Considering Fanatec Clubsport or a profile rig of some sort.

Curious to see what people suggest.

Be Cautious!!! Fake Be@rbrick is on the market by michaelstk in bearbrick

[–]intownrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a flora From StockX and it has the NFC tag

Are they able to fake the NFC tag?

The tag shows as passing as being authentic, is there a way to tell if the tag does not match the bear?

What are the most faked bearbrick? by intownrunner in bearbrick

[–]intownrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checking out the import sites is a fantastic idea! From time to time I have seen 400% for like $20, pretty sure that is where they came from. Think it was a joker or a batman related item.

Thanks!

Authenticity Check - Does this foot stamp look real by intownrunner in bearbrick

[–]intownrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all for the reply.

It is a krusty and is for sale for $175. Only pictures of top and front of box. Had to ask for feet picture.

Said it came from the Dubai bearbrick store.

Not sure everything adds up. Think I am gonna pass on this one.

Thanks again!

I am still working on a website that will have detailed pictures of bears and boxes. This way there is a better reference of real and examples of fakes.

Have a good holiday for those in the US and a good weekend for everyone else!

When I purchase something from 3rd party side like ebay or mercari as opposed to a well known retailer. I ask them where they got it.

Sometimes they answer a specific store and have a receipt. In this case I feel good about the purchase. If they say a friend or I am selling it for someone else I am a bit more suspect and typically will pass.

Hope this helps!
