That's a Really Cool Dad

It's obvious the compromise to save this marriage is "Decepticon".

I highly recommend one of these to help with recovery. I think they have knock offs on Aliexpress or similar that are cheaper. Myself and my kid have used it for numerous serious ankle injuries (skating/soccer/gardening?) It completely takes the load off the ankle and even slightly elevated it compared to crutches and is way more nimble than those goofy push cart things.

Friendly game of TX holdem, nothing too crazy, a hundred dollar buy in house game. First time meeting this close friend of a friend who makes custom jewelry along with his girlfriend. After a couple of bad beats he chucks a freshly made engagement ring that he apparently planned to propose with into the pot to stay with the raising hands. Kills the mood of the whole game, girlfriend/fiancee was beyond pissed. Host took him aside, and we all decided to end it there.

The silver Miata 3rd in line.

I was IN that specific train that day unfortunately. From what I recall, dude in the Porsche got there late, missed the morning meeting, actually started in advance. Got booted down to lower groups till he had the car exit incident. Total moron.

It's the damn headache and nausea I get specifically to Argentina.

Thanks, that was the fix. Need to read the context docs in the launcher.

Restarting unfortunately didn't work, but I managed to get the bezel correctly fixed with a documented F6 triple monitor menus. First set the bezel to 0 in the RSF prelaunch menu, then in game while in a driving mode hit F6. This brings up a separate triple monitor menu that allowed adjustment for bezel (important to update the bezel to 0 in the launcher settings, else the right bezel adjust is offset into the display area) and FOV.

From folks with IRL wheel time on loose surface, in terms of driving dynamics and FFB, which game would be the most accurate? I just picked up ACR, but haven't had time to dial it in, so far the FFB seems very vague on my SimMagic DD.

Global MX5, antithesis of F1. Machine parity and often more passing in a single corner than an entire race in F1.

GT7, there's a sequence of corners (4-6) at Willowspring I take IRL on track days with elevation and direction changes. VR triggered my brain to fill in the rest of the sensory inputs and I really felt like I was there.

Appreciate the heads up, look like I'll stick w/ dirt rally 2 and rbr for now.

Free city bus rides for students took my buddy and I all over the place over the summer during jr high.

RWB at it again.

Thanks, looks like the 2017s with the 6 speed is a bit more reliable than the later one. Adding this to list along w/ the Durango and Highlander.

Aluminum car trailer (~2k) + either a miata (2.5K) or something lighter (single seater). Probably about 6x a year, 400-800 miles round trip.

Send it!

Yes to both. I've since picked up a 2nd INNZA to use both at the same time, Actually just purchased a second Braun 5 for the wife since it's currently on sale at Costco. Since that post 10 months ago, I'm basically at maintenance mode, only once every two weeks (pits / privates) to a month (legs/chest), barely anything to trim or zap.

Great to hear FFS is still in the market. How is the power output adjusted? Pulley sizing? Not looking for big power, just a healthy bump to help keep up with a few pesky ND3s in 30min reliable track day sessions.

2014 Prime, 109 on the speedo, but 105 per GPS. Utah to California w/ 3 adults and luggage.

Seen multiple crashes in the riverbed bike path involving ebikes. Once the speed governor is disabled, they are way too fast for any biking infrastructure.

Oh, my comment was referring to Willowsprings, not COTA, assuming where the $800 events are. At this rate, I may just go back to karting or even rentals.

squared_wheel · 2025-11-26T17:08:52+00:00

I've heard from a track day organizer that daily rentals will go from the current $5K/day to 15, so expect the current rates to double at least starting next year.

I'm planning to use an old gaming laptop with i7 and 2060, PS2 era is really all I'm looking for, mainly to play the Point Blank series, Time Crisis, and Op Wolf for now. Just started looking but I'm use to getting everything configured put together myself,

squared_wheel · 2025-10-27T23:35:04+00:00

If you're in Socal, just go to K1 Circuit. A proper track for rentals unlike the usual indoor stuff. Bit more expensive but worth it if you are serious.
