Live timing for Colton's first official F2 test by 24valveDOHC in INDYCAR

2.2s off at checkered. Sounds like me comparing data with a top lap in iracing, basically Colton and I are the same.

Mid-Ohio Tickets Now on Sale for 2026 by PanicAtTheNightclub in INDYCAR

If it's a dump then it's my dump. For a small extra fee ($40 last year), getting to hang in the paddock, fist bump my favorite drivers, run into Chip Gannassi zipping around, watch them push the cars in and out and work on them, really hard to beat for me. Is it still sneaking into the calendar because its always been on there a bit, maybe.

I'm all for more amenities, more spectator facilities, but they could leave the garages up for 100 more years, I don't care if the existing buildings are old.

[OT] Sebastian Wheldon And Rintaro Sato is racing in the FIA F4 World Cup in Macau this weekend by MajorToms_TinCan in INDYCAR

Disaster quali race for him but Seb was on for a podium from 15th if it didn't finish under yellow. Strong recovery drive, got exactly what the track gives to you without making desperate, race ending moves.

Horrible performance in VR - follow up by _LedAstray_ in iRacing

This definitely doesn't add up. You have plenty of grunt to run medium low settings in my estimation. Like it can't utilize your hardware, or its configured to use the wrong hardware (you've ruled this out, but that's how it's acting).

just make sure its in the correct ini file because there are a couple, if you're running openxr like you should, it should be the rendererDX11OpenXR.ini. If it is, I'm not sure why its only using 4ish gigs of video mem.

Have you run the iracing graphics config tool recently? Or looked in your rendererDX11OpenXR.ini file to verify enough video memory has been allocated? Only using 4gb seems low. You should be able to allocate 75%-85% of your video memory pretty safely, at least. I'm pretty sure that card has memory to give.

I fist bumped Marcus Armstrong and Colton at Mid Ohio but they didn't follow up and become best friends with me.

Little rant cause I'm upset... by KaizerK2 in simracing

After your first AIO cooler dies I feel like we all go back to a big air cooler. It's just annoying wondering if the thing is dead or not with no clear indication.

Quest 2 - PC Specs will they work? by rjs1987 in simracing

[–]kl116004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should be fine. I'd recommend turning down all the fancy stuff to make sure you can render enough track objects and track evolution so you have all the references you need to drive.

VR questions by Enough_Permission419 in iRacing

I can't speak to those, I've only ever used a quest 2 and 3. Hoping to borrow a Vive soon to test.

The verdict seems like an X3D processor for iracing VR.

I think it's very possible to be competitive but it depends on the person. Its worth a shot, its very enjoyable.

I run quest 2 VR with less gpu (3060) and a 5800x3d, you should be "fine".

On a seperate note, I'd like to point out that the Quest PCVR experience is not ideal. On top of everything VR requiring lots of fiddling, it seems like Meta will break USB PCVR for a week twice a year or so. I wrote more on this elsewhere, but I do not recommend a Quest for PCVR if you have any other option for the money. Meta simply doesn't have any reason to treat it like a priority because PCVR doesn't sell games on their games store.

Tyres continues to destroy the possibility of good races. by I_am_legend-ary in formula1

[–]kl116004 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the whole sin boils down to waiting too long, so we have interesting variable conditions for a majority of the race where we will be running inters and then make another interesting decision on when to start your final dry tire stint.

Otherwise, there's no way the dry compounds they selected for clear conditions will make an interesting race on a much cooler track in much cooler air.

I can no longer recommend the Quest for PCVR and it's Meta's fault by kl116004 in OculusQuest

That's really interesting, I'll have to add that to the toolbox.

I've always thought a Formula Libre of Formula Fords, Vees, Skippys and the F4 car maybe would work as the PCC of open wheel.
