Better do some practicing - I have at least painted the car

I have to aswell! hope this time I don't do prac on the wrong track :P

On the topic of painting cars has everybody heard/used the site - http://www.tradingpaints.com/

Allows you to make you own custom paint job and share it with others. Check it out if any of you get the time and post back here with your thoughts. I use it anyways but I think it would be great to have our own paint jobs for the series! :)

This game is frustating me no end

In regards to controlling the cars? How's your fov settings? Have you used a calculator to set the fov? Edited by dontyellpl0x

My FOV settings are... default?

good idea to look at changing your fov if it's still default, I picked up a heap of lap time when I got mine right. Now I actually have my fov 'back' more than it should be for my screen, but everyone has their own sweet spot. But yeah give it try, you'll be surprised :)

Yeah have a play around with it. If you Google iracing fov calculator you could try some of them, or even the in-game calculator. But yeah correct fov changes everything

That seemed to help a bit, set a couple of new personal sector records, can't string together a nice clean lap though.

Then decided to jump in a stock car and try an oval >_<

Nothing better than beating a PB! Done well, really makes the difference doesn't it!

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
