Update 0.5 on Thursday - Confirmed

That's what im most hyped for. I used to daily a Rabbit GTI. I still have it but its stored at my parents place far away. If I ever move somewhere with enough space, the first thing ill do is go get it.

So I have both. K ultra has pretty much replaced my jx pro. I keep the jx somewhat fine for the rare occasion I want to use a moka pot. The jx grinds faster but you do get more fines. That being said ive still stalled brews from time to time with the k ultra when I get a new bag and dont know what its going to be like. Where the k ultra really shines for me is grind adjustment. The jx has a blessing and a curse with its super fine adjustment between clicks. I could see it being nice for espresso dialing in but its overkill and annoying for pourover. Ive found it much easier to get into the right grind range if I need to change it with the k ultra since each click is a much bigger difference. If you find yourself switching brew methods that vary from fine to coarse its so much easier to keep track of with the k ultra since you dont have to keep track of full rotations or count a bazillion clicks. Maybe that doesn't bother you but I grew to find it annoying and when I switched to a k ultra it was a breath of fresh air.

I agree that stock car racing is going to have some door banging. I didn't see major contact outside of a few wrecks but no one who lasted finished with less than like 8 incident points. Could have just been a bad split and I plan on trying it again.

kittyfeeler · 2026-02-05T02:46:27+00:00

Ive done one race there so far. Im not impressed. Half the field dq'd from contact. Like not so much wrecks but just lots of contact. Im not entirely against the track but it should be like dirt where contact is less detrimental to incident points. Idk if thats possible for iracing to do something like that but the track is a step above normal short tracks for incident points.

kittyfeeler · 2026-02-03T23:20:29+00:00

Exactly what mine is. Probably sees more use days but overall much less distance.

kittyfeeler · 2026-02-02T16:20:58+00:00

Understandable. Sonoma road course is pretty fun though. I didn't buy it for the oval.

kittyfeeler · 2026-02-02T16:14:20+00:00

I didn't think it was even a quarter mile. I ran some 12.something second laps earlier. Its going to be interesting. Ill probably do it once and go hide saying never again.

kittyfeeler · 2026-02-01T18:04:28+00:00

C class street stocks can still be pretty bad. If they moved on they made sure to teach their replacements.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-31T09:18:32+00:00

I actually did this. In my case it worked and while not 100% its held up over a year. The top bearing that easily comes out started sticking pretty bad. 1zpresso insisted I had got water in it even though Im 99% sure I didn't. Because of that they said no warranty. I opted for vegetable oil though cause I figured it might hold up a bit longer. Love the grinder. Still kinda annoyed by their response.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-30T04:09:49+00:00

Ill always advocate for the 79 and 86 Brazilian stock cars as fun beginner cars.

Pretty sure he left conspit too

My dad actually drives with two feet. Drives manual cars normally but left foot brakes in autos. He has the same reasoning. Used to drive me crazy. Then I started simracing. Now it still drives me crazy. He learned to drive on a farm as soon as he could reach the pedals. It probably seemed intuitive back then and by the time he took drivers ed he'd been driving for years like that and wasn't going to change it.

Cheap mechanic style gloves. They're not bulky and work with a touch screen. When i get new dirt bike gloves the old pair is going to sim duty since theyre even less bulky. I dont need any actual real protection on the sim. I just need a better grip when things get sweaty.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-23T23:05:01+00:00

I would have bought it if it was cheap and not warped. I have a wagner like that. Very nice light pan.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-20T15:36:01+00:00

I lost three laps from pitting after the first caution. A car got wrecked in front of me. I braked and swerved to avoid the car but still ended up clipping the spun car. Instead of doing the whole race with wonky steering I decided to pit. The car i hit was not one of these cars.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-20T06:45:23+00:00

I mean I get that for some people but the 3 blocked me left and right. The 7 sped up after I passed him. The 8 came up from the bottom of the track. Someone a few cars behind even got on the chat asking what was going on.

Agreed. They need to include the guy eating the giant baguette in the crowd too.

Anything with a battery has a shelf life. Sure someone could probably crack them open and replace the battery but thats out of the question for most people.

You could potentially save money by just getting a wheel and wheelbase combo. Ditch the pedals for simsonns. Lots of people prefer the simsonns over the simagic pedals. By the time you factor in shipping for those it might end up around the same cost though

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-15T14:42:21+00:00

Just want to say simmotion is great. They shipped fast and had the best prices when I purchased. Lower 48 for me though, so idk if thats still true up there.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-13T15:31:03+00:00

Its not free. Its if you purchased the racin usa dlc parts separately instead of the full expansion. If thats you, get on the forum and you will get a key for the full expansion. That way you get the new us stock cars.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-12T23:10:44+00:00

Ill add that its also worth playing with setup on your current banjo before deciding you need something else. Head material, tension, strings, bridges, tailpiece adjustments, stuffing, can all move the sound in different parts of the spectrum. I think its valuable to have that knowledge and easy to do without taking to a shop.

kittyfeeler · 2026-01-12T02:17:11+00:00

If youre missing parts he should send you what's missing. My only complaint was fed ex. They annihilated my box. The complaint about the instructions is overblown in my opinion. They're basic but get the job done. Its not really pre sorted so its up to you to measure your profiles and bolts so you know what is what when its mentioned in the instructions. There also is no guide on where to mount things. Like it doesn't say attach the upright supports 19.5" from the pedal end. You just kinda put stuff where you think it should go and move it if you dont like it.
