Iracing needs to figure out incident points for little bumps and scraps. You have some first lap hard door to door racing but end up with incident points and have to be cautious for the rest. Needs a revamp!

@sneekibreeki8162 6 күн бұрын

The whole SR system needs revamped. I get it's incredibly difficult to make a perfect system, but I shouldn't be penalized for having someone netcode with me then get a 4x with a separate individual.

@alexmattie 6 күн бұрын

@@sneekibreeki8162 Totally - even if they can start with the off tracks first. Getting super minor off tracks, or pushed wide and no advantage gained but still a 1x adds up, specially if you were caught in a tight T1, lap 1 bump and have one or two 4x's. If they can work on some warning system, or evaluation systems like other sim titles i think that'll make it a little less stressful and annoying because then you may only end the race with a 4x from contact and not more from little off track moments with no advantage gained.

@sneekibreeki8162 5 күн бұрын

@alexmattie glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks off-traxks to be done away with. I thought it was a controversial opinion. Obviously keep the track cuts, but do away with off tracks. I love racing oulton park but the track limits on that track are abysmal. If your tires so much as sniff the scent of grass from 50 feet away, you get an off track. And it doesn't help that the track is either asphalt or grass. But there's spots on VIR where you can literally have 4 wheels in the grass and get no off track. You won't even get an incident point unless you hit a wall or tire barrier. So a little consistency would be great as well

@Sushi227 4 күн бұрын

I get that there will never be a perfect system for generating safety rating, but its always seemed crazy to me that putting a wheel a bit over a line four times is the same penalty as triggering a multi-car pileup.

Hey Dave. I was in the practice session with you yesterday when you were have comms issues with your mic. I tried telling you how it sounded but dont know if you heard. Im pretty new to iRacing but that split i got put into was even worse than yours. After getting battered in the mx5 initially i have built up my sr and ir to 3.5 and 1350. I had the same car collide with me 3 times and a second one resulting me and the first car being disqualified, its frustrating lost of 97 ir and 0.2 sr after being in 7th place. Still bugging me and im away working until Monday now lol Im really enjoying the clean races but the penalties recieved from others is a nightmare mate.

@Kultivater 3 күн бұрын

The safety rating system in iRacing has been broken and nearly useless for so many years. They really need to revamp it, because this kinda shit is ridiculous. 2 week ago, I had 4.49. After 6 races, I'm down to 3.2, and I've mostly done nothing wrong, aside from getting a couple points here and there for going off track. It's like a never ending struggle that you have very little control over. The only way to guarantee you'll have a clean race is to start dead last and never overtake anyone.

On the fly flexibility in how you want pedals to feel and react. The ABS is nice to have in car with it but also all the settings to adjust travel, warnings when you reach brake % to help with preventing lock ups and threshold braking. The gas I have setup staged to ensure I am applying smooth acceleration out of corners. It’s pretty limitless what you can configure and it’s all on the fly using the software.

Audio issues like yours could be CPU related. I had issues like this in the past when the main thread was overloaded and the CPU can't keep up anymore. You could try to lower your frames to a state where they are rocksolid in every situation and check if the issue persist. When the issue is still there than it is most likely a driver issue. I don't think it is a broken amp because the issue is also in the video.

In Order to obtain B or A licences, you also have to race higher class series. You need a minimum or 4 c class races and the required Safety rating to get B licence, and 4 B licence races plus rating to get into A licence. If all you drive is d class series, you max out at C licence even as the safest driver out there.
