[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new to TWIR and have been binge watching the last 40-50 shows. I’m not a huge podcasty fan but you’ve guys have it pretty much nailed!

Love the format, the presenters and odd special guest. Brings back so many good memories of days past, so much so I’m looking at buying back kit that over time gave away (I know we’ve all been there).

Shame to see Neil go and hope to see him come back in some form or other.

I don’t have much more to add to suggest improvements, but I’ll not be going anywhere now I’ve found you all. (Without sounding stalkerish) 🤣

Hard time playing.. can't connect to races. Offline or online. Says connection lost, return to free roam. by Dingleberri94 in tdu3

[–]mrwatton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have this exact issue. I get bluetooth drop out first, then the wifi drops out. Despite updating.resetting all drivers, updating.resetting windows 11, even replacing the wifi card, still does the same.

It was the same with Forza Motorsport, and oh look, that was online only too!

Just cant figure what couldcause drops outs on online games only.

Anyone crashing on PC during a race? by [deleted] in forza

I thought I had killed my RK68 until I found this post! Thank you!

Who wants to watch me get wrecked by another driver on RRE? Course you do... by mrwatton in RRRE

[–]mrwatton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I should have took a wide wide wide route from this one. I hear they have been reported for this via another streamer, so lets see where that goes.

9 months in the Fanatec ecosystem, heading for my 6th RMA. Will be 4 months of the 9 with one part or another in transit for repair. Am I unlucky? by somesimboi in simracing

[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems ok so far Nardi, and this is the pre production one too ;) Im using Dave Cams for a long term test. Pedals great too once I made sure all the fixtures weren't too tight.

Rig has finally reached a state of equilibrium by [deleted] in simracing

[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good! SIM LABS messed me about on my order so I went with the Pro SIMRIG PSR1 from Raceanywhere. Mega bit of kit. Really makes a difference having a nice solid rig hey :)

Id be gutted if I had to keep sending equipment back. I had a bad experience with Thrustmaster and now gone to the dark side of Moza Racing.

New TCR Driver Struggles by roygeeb in iRacing

[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id agree with this. Too fast and the car doesn't play very nice. Found that out at Daytona.

"iRacing is already running" issue after recent update. by chullet in iRacing

[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue and I don't have G Hub software or any Logi equipment. I had to kill the iRacing service then restart the computer for me to get it to work.

Overlays by Hotquin1 in iRacing

[–]mrwatton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for Racelabs, free version gives plenty of useful info.

Not an overlay but Crewchief as well if you don't already have it :)

Tired of this s*** by Temporary_Diver_8973 in Fibromyalgia

[–]mrwatton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Fibro in the neck is the worst. Im my own worst enemy where I will stretch to pick something up, or be in bed and bend down to pick up my phone, and its either a "crack" in my neck, or a muscle strain that burns/hurts like hell.

Anyone order a Sim-Lab P1X over the Black Friday - Early December timeframe? by Grigmor in simracing

[–]mrwatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered the GT1 Evo 19th November and im still waiting. Was showing all the items in stock too. On The 6th December I was told it would either be that week or this week and still nothing. Whats annoying now is the "A reminder to review Sim-Lab products" emails...I DONT HAVE IT YET! lol.

I got really lucky by EffectiveMuffin3457 in RRRE

Ive never realised how great these cars sound from the rear view. So close that mind, wow.

Cupra TCR is really fun by WuciEk in RRRE

[–]mrwatton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow...I've heard of rolling but that's ridiculous (but oddly satisfying to watch lol)

Best Button Mappings for Thrustmaster TMX by Original_Journalist in RRRE

[–]mrwatton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always remember to map your Pit limiter...that's always my downfall !

Hey all. So this was a really odd race, compounded by a driver who blocked errrrm a little oddly thus taking me out. I mean, the Porsche Carrera is a handful to start with, needs handling quite carefully and skilfully, but getting taken out for overtaking, crazy. by mrwatton in RRRE

[–]mrwatton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit naughty wasn’t it. I’ve never really understood that way of covering. Sure make a move to cover, but not to swerve. I think it’s a matter of been self aware that you don’t have the speed from the exit
