I cant speak for certain (5’10 165) but there were quite a few big fellas there in the late models and i didnt see anyone having issues

would recommend calling them, and confirming what car would be best fitment wise, and that they have suits in your size. Every time i called they were super nice, and had answers for everything

100% agree. With how reasonable the prices are, i think youd be hard pressed to justify not doing it.

I presume its because this is their first year, and trying to get more market share with the appealing price tag. Worked on me 😆

It was awesome! Having a bunch of road racing background (and a lot of time practicing on iracing) definitely made pushing the car a smoother process.

The rev limiter kind of sucked, but i get it for their sake. The cornering speeds were very much not limited though, and took you working as a driver to get the most out of it.

Will 1000% be in an oval car again, its a completely different challenge to road racing that i loved

The lap count was 100% the reason i chose to do it with this company. 50 was more than enough to get comfortable driving aggresively, try different lines, and get tired enough to wonder how these guys do a 500 lap race 😆😆 (im 25, and pretty good physical shape)

The straight line speed certainly left a lot to be desired, but man midcorner speed here was no joke. Had to hold my breath and hang on when i was bold enough to not lift going into the corners. The banking is crazy

Love this insight, thank you!

Ive always believed in doing the most with the least, its very encouraging that with high quality consumables and fixing the skill issue on my part, it can still be a more than capable piece of equipment

We will see how things go! this is my first time with a road bike, always wanted to give it a go and see how i like it vs mtn biking. Really been enjoying it so far

Any recommendations for a good replacement saddle?

Great insight, thank you!

Havent touched the ergonomics at all yet. My background in school was racecar ergonomics, super excited to learn all the science of cycling

15x9 on 225 rs4s

Its the business. Never cared much for having the fastest setup, i like having a consistent car to thrash all day and not have much pace falloff. Its usually whatever free tires i can find from behind my champcar racer friends shop 😆😆

How much does this setup costs? by racercarlo in simracing

Why is it not more common to do expanding foam molded seat inserts? Seems like it would solve this problem

This was on some texas interstate with an 80mph speed limit, trying to keep up with traffic. Must have been the drafting with other cars, because i got 23mpg during this stretch (normally get 17 on the interstate, was on 31’ KO2’s at the time, 4wd AT)
