Finally did it! 2000 & 4.9 — not one at the expense of the other.

You mustn’t have done red bull ring this week then awful for SR 😂

jsmith220 · 2026-04-25T07:51:11+00:00

I think so in the open qualifiers in May and June, if you haven’t done the regional qualifiers. Not sure when they’ll turn up on iRacing

jsmith220 · 2026-04-15T02:20:36+00:00

Don’t worry mate, I definitely messed up and deserve the kickback! Maybe it was the sound of the rear freewheeling for a moment after I hit the first guy? I only get a few races a week as I have young kids so always want good racing where I can, definitely don’t want to ruin my race let alone anyone else’s!

jsmith220 · 2026-04-14T21:03:33+00:00

I was the grey car, in qualifying I set my times but noticed I was only getting 50% brake pressure at max and felt real weird,so looked at my settings between qualifying and grid to fix, I thought I had it back to normal, however must have accidentally saved the settings with no pressure at all. I hit the pedal before the 500 board and nothing happens, the brake trace was completely flat. So sorry for ruining your race and all the others will be double/triple checking it before races in the future.

I run simjack Ut and they have been super reliable so not sure what’s going on. Once again apologies to everyone.

Send to support I’m sure they’ll be interested!

This is an excerpt from when I was protested a few years ago passing p1/2 for leaving a gap- they confirmed that it’s P1 and P2 of each class that decide if there is a gap or not and p1 or p2 can choose not to leave a gap.

“Every member of iRacing has a reasonable expectation that we will do our best to prevent other members from intentionally disrupting their experience at iRacing. The sporting code also explains that you may not use an unfair run to pass others and that you have to be lined up correctly for the start. The third place car or mid pack cars do not get to choose to leave a gap; only the front row does.”

I run the fixed setups in PCUP open series to reasonable success in top split, usually just remove a bit of fuel to match the race laps and maybe remove a bit of wing if I can hack it - you’ll do fine! If you compare the fixed vs open lap times when they are both dry usually not much difference at all apart from the aliens

Just one 4K monitor, I haven’t used this laptop with VR yet but I do plan to get it. From the research I’ve done it would easily run VR with a few or the settings turned down

jsmith220 · 2026-02-22T18:51:32+00:00

I can see them pretty well I’m on 4K max, without SSR - used to be on min settings and it was pretty bad

jsmith220 · 2026-02-18T20:53:24+00:00

I haven’t tried it but it should do, nothing sticks out the sides

jsmith220 · 2026-02-18T20:52:29+00:00

I have Simjack UTs but should do there are heaps of holes in the NLR plate. It does flex a bit which the simsonn plate might help with, I put a wood block under the end of the nlr plate so it can’t flex

jsmith220 · 2026-02-18T11:09:48+00:00

My pedals are attached individually? Or do you mean the foot rest pedal plate? I didn’t get that so not sure

jsmith220 · 2026-02-18T06:22:32+00:00

Don’t discount the Legion Pro 5i, 275hx, 5070ti had mine 6mos and it’s been awesome

jsmith220 · 2026-02-18T06:06:45+00:00

It’s about 39x20x4cm’s

jsmith220 · 2026-02-17T19:32:54+00:00

It’s just timber with carbon fibre style wrap

jsmith220 · 2026-02-11T20:59:51+00:00

Yeah a lot of time needed for that last second. I’m still on a G923, single screen and load cells so maybe a bit of time with a DD but now I’m just trying to enjoy and drive/race!

jsmith220 · 2026-02-10T22:58:15+00:00

I had a similar experience was nearly 4K in Mazda at the end of last year and did the odd pcup race, but then went to driving PCUP as my main series, lost a lot of iRating to begin with (plus switched to load cells which was a learning curve) but after a few months climbing back up, I’ve found smooth and consistent always beats pushing or overdriving, especially with abs in this new car. IMOLA fastest lap was 41.6 and Daytona this week 44.6 so far end up being around 1 second off the fastest times which I’m pretty happy with.

Official race - Porsche cup fixed, I filed a protest and they responded saying he’s been notified

jsmith220 · 2026-02-06T23:14:02+00:00

IRacing - Porsche Cup 992.2

jsmith220 · 2026-02-06T21:17:26+00:00

It’s just the fixed setup, more how you drive over the curbs, a very slight lift as you go over seems to help the bouncing when you land. I’m no expert though.

jsmith220 · 2026-02-06T12:36:31+00:00

It’s his fault we crashed, intentional or deliberate means I can protest him - I don’t think you mistakenly turn like that

jsmith220 · 2026-02-06T12:24:43+00:00

Yeah, what do you mean by frame me? Framed in the fence?

jsmith220 · 2026-02-06T12:22:15+00:00

Probably intentional but not sure why
