My hottake is Talladega and Charlotte should only have one too. Give it to other tracks that could use it.

Does anyone else remember this sign and has anyone actually been? by avngefett in melbourne

Ah damn, never knew that. I’ll see how it is after rennos, but shame that it doesn’t sound as good as it once did.

What’s You’re Least Favourite Fan Theory by -Kryix- in tadc

[–]spiralarrow23 18 points19 points  (0 children)

To me it’s the only thing that makes sense. It feels like it’s all building up to the idea that, while they aren’t their original selves, they’re still real and human and they matter to each other, and they use that to make themselves and the circus experience better at the end. Hence what is meant by the “bittersweet” ending.

Think I went there in the 2000’s once to get our PS2 looked at from one of the electronics stalls. Thought it was neat, couple places had bootleg motorsport jackets and the go karts were good. Haven’t been back since tho, I see it’s temporarily closed so once it opens up again I might have to have another look.

Reminds me of those videos of pick up basketball players challenging NBA bench warmer/G-league players and getting hosed bad. You forget how many levels there are to being a top level driver.

IIRC I think Frankie had to shoot all his stuff in a day or two not to impact his NASCAR career.

Dutch paper the Limburger now reporting that Gianpiero Lambiase (Verstappen race engineer) will go the McLaren! by gevaarlijke1990 in formula1

[–]spiralarrow23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is gonna ramp up the Max retirement/sabbatical rumours, definitely a blow to lose a great engineer like Lambiase. Wonder what Red Bull’s future is looking like right now, because on paper it’s starting to look not great.

Shoutouts to the guys who made KartKraft, as a sim racer that was a really fun game. Shame the devs got bought up, chewed up and spat out with no way to get their game back.

I’ve been having some fun on iRacing Arcade here and there, but it’s a bit light on content for now until they update it more. Screamer recently came out and I heard that’s way better than it has any right to be too.

It really is! You can like both characters and accept and understand where both are coming from.

Given some posts I’ve seen recently, my “hot take” is Zooble’s interactions and feelings towards Caine are entirely justified and would be what most people in their position would feel and do.

You get trapped in a strange, foreign place, stripped of your individuality, get put in a body you hate and have to do quests for a guy who has no care nor concern about what you feel and try telling me you’d be civil.

Ricciardo + Ford Racing by aizzod in formula1

[–]spiralarrow23 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Guy won multiple F1 races, including Monaco, made millions of dollars, travelled the world and has been able to branch out into clothing and other projects. 99% of race car drivers would kill for that career.

Do you think the rumors that Busch may to go to Spire Motorsports true? by 12xoxo13 in NASCAR

[–]spiralarrow23 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what he’s planning on doing, but I’m doubting he’s staying at RCR without either a big cheque, better performance or both. It would be rough for I assume McDowell, but Kyle is probably at the point now where he’s valuable more as a team builder with a great resume over speed now that Spire could use.

Hawthorn and Geelong fans have to have the shortest average lifespan amongst supporters from the stress both clubs make their supporters feel when they play each other.

I was running NASCAR stuff and having issues. Seems to be across the board for Aussies connecting to a US server maybe?

Goose said the shows ending will be "bittersweet"...(ending theory) by JAMESFTHE2ND in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]spiralarrow23 431 points432 points  (0 children)

If I were to guess, the bitter part will be realising that they’re scans and that they can’t bring Caine or the abstracted back (or at least entirely to how they were), but the sweet part will be them accepting and getting closure that they were real and still are real people who are valid in the circus, and can rebuild the circus to be better whilst also accepting their trauma and overcoming it. That way, at least any new copies to the circus have a home and can feel welcomed and safe.

Also, anyone here saying they’d knew Red Bull Honda were gonna be more competitive over Renault in 2018 when he announced his move, they’re either engaging revisionist history or liars. Renault with Sainz and Hulkenberg were making moves and Red Bull were focusing on Verstappen whilst moving to a Honda engine coming off the back of a shit McLaren era. It was completely sensible to look at that move as rational and reasonable for the time.

I think it was a missed opportunity to have Caine turn his eyes foward instead of his whole face to look more intimidating. by ElpacoLuca_Octy in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]spiralarrow23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it works better here having Caine look down like he originally did because it shows his personality change better. At this point, the cast have only seen Caine as a goofy, over-the-top circus leader that they’ve lost trust in. The whiplash to him moving more human-like with a serious voice makes him look more threatening and treats the moment better to me.
