The fov talk never needs to happen. If you want the details it's in the OP. There is no argument, just some people wanna see the footwell and enjoy trees wizzing past. You ca do whatever you like, steer with a mouse if it makes you giggle.

You won't win races in iRacing, but you might not care.

im gonna start the other side of the argument with this



lol


but i'll follow it up with this: at least get kinda fuckin close ok, dont run stupid high ones or you are actually an idiot.

I end up driving iracing a lot more because i like the fact that you can basically find a practice with people at any time ever, i dont really race all that much any more, so its nice that iracing gives me an easy place to drop in and kinda do whatever i want, its not that i like it the most, i just really hate driving alone.

Yeah, this car on this track could be pretty bad, the field is going to spread out a ton and it'll be bad. Same car on a shorter track, or a different car on this track, could be a lot more fun.

i've had a look, i'd be up for it if someone recommends a good car for that sort of track. I'll certainly add it to the server; it doesn't take that much time or space



p much just throw any random production car from any year and it'll be great, just put like 3 or for for whatever cars you do so we can roll as a crew :V

yellowbird, f40, classic cars are good and the lotus's (lotii?) are just a good call too.

Let me know if that works.

Set it so that we have 6 Yellowbirds (all in yellow naturally), 6 GT40s (all in Gulf colours because that's how its supposed to be), six red F40s and 6 Countach's because I'm pretty sure that was the first car I ever drove in a racing game (Need for Speed 3!) so it has to be in. You'll need Dream Packs 1 and 2 I think to run it; plus this.

Countach was best in my first race game need for speed hot pursuit.

OK so literally all you do is go to multiplayer, create game, czech and make sure it shows up in the server browser, have your friends who are joining get server info,click the big plus button so you can manually add the ip at the multiplayer server browser, and join.

i kept trying to do poo poo via the dedicated because i just kept reading "multiplayer browser in game broken" and didn't even think that the create game button would work. it does.

kartkraft, and if you havent looked at kart racing pro or whatever yet you should.


buy a rib protector if you havent yet :V


also just curious, is there any active lo206 classes at that track?

OhsH
Jan 12, 2008
I am absurdly lucky with my local (2 hour away) track that i am arrive and driving at in the lo206 class, in that there are goddamn 30-40 other karts usually.

The main draw of lo206 being its cheap as hell 4-stroke racing with a sealed engine, so you dont have to worry about doin engine tuning poo poo to be competitve, either way, if they dont do it they dont do it.


I'm hoping to pick up a used kart and start doin my own thing next year, if all goes decently well.


EIther drat way, buy a gooooood rib protector because woooo!!



W/R/T kart racing pro, i've had a guy at the track tell me he tried it and it wasn't half bad, and he was a solid mid pack driver, but we drive 4 strokes so vOV

I shall protect and cherish my precious ribs.

As for the rest of the thread, rather than spending a thousand bucks on that seat that Michael Schumacher may have farted in or a second video card for your sim racing rig.. have a look into karting. You might be closer to it than you think.


I whole heartedly agree, advice to any body else would be, go to a local track on race day, see what it looks like, see what engines and chassis are popular, see if the track does arrive and drives for any of the classes they race, hell, see if some team has an arrive and drive kart for rent.


But for gods sake get a seat that fits, and get a rib veat, lol.


Oh, also, if you are mechanically retarded like me, look into asking somebody who is obviously at the track as a mechanic and ask if they sell their services, at the worst, you can ask them a bunch of questions, theyre nice enough around me, so they must be near you, too.

It sounded like most people are unavailable today, so I hadn't planned on anything. I wanted to get a regular schedule going, but squeezing in between iRacing sessions on sundays seems to do participation no favor. Quite frankly I don't know what to do.

Edit: I haven't really tried the DLC cars yet, so let's just meet up at 19 GMT and hoon around a bit in open practice, and if we get enough people together we can just start a race. How about that?

put the server up and i'll be there earlier because im bored.
