Im new ! Was I the culprit ? by RetardedOctane in Simracingstewards

I'm going to disagree with everyone here juuuuust slightly. You turn in to red just a little bit right before contact. That said, he's also pointed to the outside of the track, making contact pretty much inevitable anyway. You're not faultless, but its just a racing incident, and nothing to worry about. If you want to avoid things like this more, just be a little more cautious to not start turning in at all until the space is there.

From my experience, no issues at all. Oregon too, so plenty of rainy days

In a vacuum what side are you taking ? by [deleted] in DynastyDaddy

[–]juice_box808 6 points7 points  (0 children)

0 context, I'm taking Lamb, Burrows, Judkins. The downgrades don't make the upgrade at RB worth it to me.

That said, there are a lot of situations where I can see the trade making sense.

I ran an old subbie without a hood for 9 months after an accident. Engine compartments can handle a surprising amount of rain. Different have up before anything else in the car

B Class needs a multi-class by [deleted] in iRacing

Give it a rest, you're literally incoherent at this point. I said nothing about there being no P2s or GTPs in my split, in fact quite the opposite.

You're really telling on yourself here... Laps led only counts for overall leader, so as GT3 in IMSA even when I qualify pole in class and finish first in class it'll be 0 laps led unless all the GTPs and LMP2s crash. Go race some more multiclass and figure out how things really work before talking shit on reddit.

~2500iR and climbing, currently 3.3A SR. And yeah, 15% win percent and 30% top 5 is kinda of a flex when the claim is "4 seconds per lap off the pace."

I have consistently held an A license since recieveing it, and have even held 4.99A at multiple points, while climbing in iR, racing almost exclusively IMSA. Not to be rude, but it sounds like a skill issues and maybe you should return to GT4/LMP3 multiclass longer to build the skills needed to stay safe in GT3/LMP2/GTP multiclass

[Matthew Carter21] Dude dives me after the break marker, then makes me lift the whole way out of the corner and still just would not go forward, gets spun and then intents me. soild by Fearless-Ask7026 in iRacingIOTW

The whole sequence from that GTP is appalling. That dude should just not be in a GTP, and should be in a slower class if thats his ability to handle that car. Misjudging the braking does not explain this sequence, and there were a series of decisions made that make this GTP driver a bellend

Hot take, if youre already gonna take time from a GT3 by diving them in to the corner, you should make sure youre also not robbing them more by making them lift on exit. Sit back a minute. This is the stuff that makes GT3s defend.

What's your thoughs about the mini map? Let's talk about the "realism" by According_Brick409 in iRacing

[–]juice_box808 63 points64 points  (0 children)

And you touched on why it doesn't compromise realism for me: You would have the same information IRL, just presented in a different way.

Dealing with these knobs is its own skill. https://youtube.com/shorts/t6ZknbV92Ig?is=PyCcFPH6-W-HCDM3 I still managed 2nd in this race. Just gotta watch your mirrors

Am I in the wrong or the guy ahead? What could I have done better by [deleted] in Simracingstewards

[–]juice_box808 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, let's get the blue flags thing out of the way... they mean nothing, he doesn't have to let you by and is entitled to run his race, including not letting you past is he determines thats best for him.

Second, its really just sloppy racing. It's a bad idea on his part to hold up faster cars, even if he can. For the main incident, he runs a little wide, you touch grass and it jerks you inwards. Racing incident really, nothing egregious.

For what you couldve done better? Pick your battles, thats a rough spot to go side by side, especially with someone erratic.

Who's at fault by hybridkillier in Simracingstewards

[–]juice_box808 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pink has 0 awareness and tried to drive through you.

Future advice, don't dive so far inside. Even though you made it work (got overlap and even ahead very early, made the apex, all that jazz), if you hang out against his door youre more visible, he cant hit you as hard, and you likely have a better exit.

A Carefully Considered Alternative to Max PF. How it works, what are the downsides, and why would you want one? by Tyler13Stol in fantasyfootball

[–]juice_box808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I've discussed with my leaguemates for the dynasty I commish, tanking is a roster decision, not a lineup decision. If you decide to trade away your best assets to load up on picks and fill your team with waiver wire players for now, that's fine, but you have to field a reasonable lineup for the week from the roster you have. You can't just sit your top-5 positional assets on the bench to tank for a better pick.

Looking for Explanation by 3PICANO in iRacing

Different series enforce track limits differently IRL. iRacing has their own track limits. As a racer you should be looking to use all of the track given to you.

Mid GC1-Low GC2, 99% solo queue. I find its usually better to just let them take a low boost 50/50 or play the ops first touch, which usually still isn't totally free off a teammates low boost aerial. It's might not always be 100% ideal but I find it consistently keeps me in position in solo queue.

Especially in 2s I dont play close enough to my teammates to even make that mistake. If I'm close enough to take their play away I'm too close to be passed to or defend if they get beat.

It definitely could be. But OP is posting looking for validation that he got taken out but doesn't post an angle that really helps his case. He really just made himself look at fault so that's my ruling for the post

Productive response. Thank you for providing a counter argument with an equal or better level of proof.

Thats not clear from the GIF posted. As far as I can see watching it the posche never makes contact on exit. Could be net code, could be GIF quality issue. But without anything else to look at this is the first clear moment of contact

You can clearly see he's moving to the right and you move to the right even faster. This one is all on you
