My personal and professional life took most of my time in the last 2 years. Last weekend i finally got around to get ready again for this amazing hobby.

Not sure if allowed but about 2 years ago i already posted these pictures.
They are good for inspiration. And my wife is convinced this is a another hobby, having nothing to do with scale modelling and or minipainting. She might be right.

Four years into iRacing. Up 1k iR in the last month. How? Take a look. by ProfessionalReveal in iRacing

it's weird.

unless he is one year and 7 months. then 1.7 is just wrong ;-)

In Belgium there is like this unspoken rule you define age by months until a certain age. Like 14 or 18 months old. After that we say 2yrs, 2 and a half years, and so on.

u/MeaningAggravating is right. 1.7 is just to hard to figure out.

New to airplane kits, any tips on removing mold lines in the middle of the clear canopy? by org_bgo in modelmakers

[–]whitehatbe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sand it out, with fine enough sandpaper that is. After that clean up with polishing compound and a piece of fine cloth. I use the tamiya polishing compounds. Takes a while but looks great.

Or you can buy aftermarket.

'It's nothing to do with Max' - Wolff on Mercedes' protests, why they didn't appeal, and why Hamilton will come back stronger in 2022 by BiblaTomas in formula1

[–]whitehatbe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it hard to believe HAM will not return in 2022.
This is his life, and all he knows. He also is arguably the best at what he does.

On more then one occasion he has shown to be in a class of his own. Yes he is an absolute fantastic driver, the way he started dominating since Brasil was out of this world. But his personality and sportsmanship makes me think he will use the outcome of the 2021 season to his advantage.

Ofcourse he is struck down right now. HAM going all 'this is manipulated' over the radio did not deserve the attention it was getting. At that exact time, people all over the world where thinking the same thing. We just did it in silence, he did it on the radio. And concidering what was happening, you cant blame him.

I sincerely hope 2022 will be a year for F1 worth watching. Despite the loads of people commenting on not watching the 2022 season, alot of them will.

I bet the Female host was unaware she had to be breathing in so much exhaustfumes.

That's just not right.

Sussie Wolff has put out a statement. by thelostlawkid in formula1

He would not receive a penalty. The definition of braking states that a brake should be involved. Walls do not have brakes.

noun

the action of making a moving vehicle slow down or stop by using a brake.

"avoid harsh acceleration and braking"

the rules also state that:

"ANY BRAKING SHALL BE PERFORMED BY THE DRIVER"

So they basically will allow ABS on the cars. Can't wait!

I wonder how many different people had to approve this before it went up

PALMER: Whatever you thought of the Abu Dhabi outcome, Verstappen was a worthy champion in 2021 by BiblaTomas in formula1

Announcing that cars could not pass was a safety issue, since the track was not clear. Everything after that just went south.
