TROPHY CASE

New rFactor2 Beta build 85 released - features 'ISI Formula Masters' (aka F1). by alister667in simracing

They first distribute it by torrent, then auto update once the first rush has settled down.

Formula 1 | Monaco Grand Prix | Free Practice 2 Discussion by Icanhazcommentin formula1

[–]imonreddit 0 points1 point ago

Often at the end of a stint, the team will practice a pit stop, changing the tyres, then have the car speed off 5 meters down the pit lane, only to be brought back into the pits.

Mark Webber sums up the Pirelli tyre era of racing. by oh84sin formula1

[–]imonreddit 1 point2 points ago

What is going to happen this year at Monaco? Who knows. What would happen under the old specifications? For the most part the starting and finishing order would be the same. I'd rather watch a race than two hours of qualifying.

Pirelli happy to make qualifying tyres by Speyein formula1

[–]imonreddit 0 points1 point ago

I deleted my comment because I misread yours. I like to see the Q3 runner have to set a fast lap time on a new set of option tyres. Those tyres would have to be returned and then they would start on one of the other sets, same and the Q1 and Q2 cars.

Tried posting to r/pics but got no love. How's my attempt at macro, without a proper macro lens? by weemangloverin itookapicture

[–]imonreddit 0 points1 point ago

How is it a good macro lens? It has a large minimum focusing distance and is only 35mm.

Vote now on /r/Formula1/'s policies! Flair, Memes and even Spoilers!! by HeikkiKovalainenin formula1

[–]imonreddit 1 point2 points ago

Aren't you concerned r/videos, r/motorsports may spoil the race if something unusual happens that gets larger coverage? Since I can't rule that our, I just avoid the front page.

I just visit the subreddits I believe will be safe directly.

Vote now on /r/Formula1/'s policies! Flair, Memes and even Spoilers!! by HeikkiKovalainenin formula1

[–]imonreddit 14 points15 points ago

I watch 80% of the races recorded, however I voted to allow spoilers. On the day of the race, I need to avoid not just r/Formula1, but reddit since once in a while a clip (like Petrov flying in the air at Malaysia) will make it to r/videos or some other subreddit. I also need to avoid newspapers and radio, even though I live in an area that it seldomly (but occasionally) gets covered.

The burden of avoidance is on the viewer, not the press or general public. Once I am done watching the race, I can come into r/Formula1 and read all of the posts. I don't want a whole bunch of vaguely named posts after the race, like "what that guy said about that guy after that thing that happened".

And at the end of it all, even one spoiler will ruin a race, so for this policy to work, we require 0% chance of a spoiler, which just isn't realistic.

That looks terribly over saturated.

Can someone explain my music icon? by Floattubein jailbreak

Where is a great place to print out a large poster? by subtlevictoriesin toronto

Costco or Wallmart will print out a 36x24 for $20.

iRacing vs. rFactor 2 Beta vs. pCARS Alpha by I_support_Ron_Paulin simracing

I find that the sense of speed is much greater in rFactor2 than iRacing. Thoughts?

TIL HRT are closer in qualifying to GP2 cars than they are the front of the F1 grid by goretoothin formula1

[–]imonreddit 1 point2 points ago

I think you are missing the point of where the money goes. The money is to build the fastest car within the regulations. If you had no regs, you could build a race car that would be WAY faster than F1 car for a tiny sum. Power and basic aero are not expensive.

ITAP of Vise Grips by IgnatiousReillyin itookapicture

I'd personally increase the DOF with a smaller aperture. I think the tip of the vice grips should be sharper.
