I can feel a stink eye if someone did that lol!

Here's the spring I used to mod the throttle pedal pressure. As you can see, it's dirt cheap, plus it's easy to install.

Remaggib Sat Mar 16, 2013 1:31 pm

Yep, I'm faster than Kyle Busch. lol!

Yeah you are! Nice run Rem! That's haulin'. You smoked the field by almost half a second.

Remaggib Sat Mar 16, 2013 5:03 pm

I also smoked the wall around the entire track, and the entire right side of my car! That was nowhere near a legit lap, I just found out the lap before that that when against the wall in a turn, I can keep the hammer down and go fast. So that's what I did for the entire next lap, ride the wall and not lift cheers

So I played iRacing today. My roomate has it, and he let me try it out.

It was a no clutch set-up, but it was still cool, he has the GT wheel. It was fun, so different from Forza....

There are things I don't like about it though, and the whole setting up a PC just for that game is not something I plan on doing.

I drove the FR500S and the Ford GT around Road Atlanta and Laguna Seca. That GT was loads of fun, but damn does the ass come around in a hurry if you fuck with it.

**TuxTshirt** Sun Apr 07, 2013 1:32 am

Yeah buddy! You gotta start somewhere. So, I'll see you on iRacing in what, a month.....two? Laughing

**StalkerStang** Tue Apr 09, 2013 9:10 pm

Plus I have real cars that need some work.

I'm so derned close to a ready rig. Just one good graphics card and a G27 wheel+pedal set away from jumping on. Typing on my new pc as we/I/ya'll/youse/us speak.. just can't run iRacing to spec at the moment.

Better get that stuff.......do it. Do it.

They're upgrading more of the in-sim sounds! Yeah boyeeee!

Josh on ze bass Sat Apr 20, 2013 1:12 pm

Phase 1. complete. It runs, it goes, it's not yet powerful enough to run iRacing. got a hand me down video card, but it's out dated. I can run rFactor demo and Grand Prix Legends maxed out (which is AWESOME).
So far so good.... iRacing goodness! - Page 7 Rig_st10

Yes, yes, YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! Josh almost on ze iRacing!!! cheers

3 wide at charlotte... the indy series is a ton of fun so far! I like that they do cautions... that is if I'm not the cause.

Heck yeah Sorta, nice to see you running the Indy car! I haven't bought it yet, I'm too wrapped up in stockcars. Speaking of, just had a freaking EPIC race at Dega in the Nationwide, finished 2nd.....by about one hundredth of a second. I wish I had some video editing software, I'd post some highlights. I can't imagine the fun we'd all have in these cars, we have a blast on Forza.

Sorta05 Mon May 06, 2013 9:24 am

Nice Tux! The indy car at charlotte is nuts! 217+ in the draft and lots of really close racing. The car sticks everywhere and you only lift to keep from running the guy in front over.

I ran a few A licence practice sessions at dega. What a blast! I was having a heck of a time drafting and holding steady. Forced me to take a look at my wheel setup and I've since adjusted it up to 900 deg (from 460) and some force feedback adjustments. Wow, what a difference! It's still tough to bump draft but much easier to hold the line at dega and for the indy cars. Haven't tried road cars yet, but hoping it helps there too.

**TuxTshirt** Mon May 06, 2013 10:27 am

Oh yeah, bump drafting takes some getting used to. Once you get the feel, it's so much fun. There's something addicting about driving at 200mph and all you can see is a spoiler.

So I discovered a negative for iracing today... lined up outside front row for the restart after a caution and the leader spun his tires and went through the infield before the start finish line... I had to serve a stop go penalty (green flag only) for his mistake because I "passed" him before the start finish!

That sucks. Something similar happened to me in the trucks. I've only seen it that one time, but it does suck.

**TuxTshirt** Wed May 08, 2013 10:17 pm

Do it.
