Hey there,
2023 season has ended and we are approaching season 2024. @ScarDuck14 has already opened a new thread regarding the new season.
See you there!
@TotosHeadphones sorry, just converted my iRacing telemetry files for MoTec but had to deal with a work issue here 🙃
This week I raced at Zandvoort like I said, and it just so happens that I had a good race there around May when I still had the G923. So that's the perfect comparison for our purposes here! In a few hours I'll post again with a side by side comparison of my best laps for each race.
For now, this is what I sent @dancrodrigues on Instagram a few weeks ago:
Red trace is braking with the G923. White is braking with the LC pedal. These particular corners obviously benefit from trail braking, with the first one being a heavy braking, slow short corner and the second being a longer corner.
My attempts at trail braking were pathetic before 😂
You can see me trying to progressively ease off the pedal, I could never nail it.
Now these two are for those Zandvoort laps I mentioned. The first is for T1, and the other is for... Jeez, I can't remember the number but it's another corner that requires proper trail braking. Red trace now is with the Logitech Pro Pedals and Blue trace is for the G923:
The coloured background if for ABS activation, same color scheme. Both laps were with the Toyota GR86 that is equipped with ABS. For T1 it's basically "heck screw it" due to the profile of the corner, but most of the times you want to keep ABS from engaging as it reeeeeeeeally bogs you down. TC on this car is the worst, by the way! Really sounds like you're drowning yourself with a pint of beer gugugugugugulp 😂
For LC mods, I recently came across these:
I think there was another one in my subscription feed but I passed on that one, sorry 🙃
Will try to find it again as it was from a good channel.
@mariohomohThat sir is amazing. Thank you. It's clear that the G29 pedals are far more difficult to trailbrake in a consistent fashion. The second graph for Zandvoort, that LC slope is the exact type that you want to see in proper brake control. G29 is virtually binary on/off.
@mariohomohSorry, that was absolutely perfect, my original reply accidentally sent and then I didn't edit my reply. Original reply is edited.
@mariohomohRichmotech has a LC kit you can apply to Logitech pedals.
The True brake is a LC imitator...very nicely made
Only seen the highlights of F2 and can someone explain to me how BOTH your rear tires
fall off your car!
I was pretty sure the guy on the right rear didnt hit the wheel with a impact and then I thought maybe the nut is self tightening.
But BOTH rear wheels?
@BadMayh3m Apparently they switched wheel guns this year and were not on top of its processes yet. They double stacked their drivers in the pit, and the interval was short enough that the guns didn't had time to fully reset their programmed safety cooldown.
Basically the guns didn't apply the full torque because they assumed it was an unintended activation.
Happy Monday all. Anyone still recovering from one of the craziest grand prix for a while?
well done to the GOAT himself @ScarDuck14 for guessing Lando getting P2 in qualifying
As for the podium noone getting really close but well done to @P4st3l1ak, @ScarDuck14, @Blackbird90 and @Monzstar for guessing Max on the top step

@Cpayne32Yes I am amazing 🤩
I did not guess…. You all should know by now I’m all knowing 😎
EA SPORTS FC™ TeamUnfortunate, that Lando wasn't able to keep the position for the race 🙂 Still happy to see Alonso and Gasly there!
Hoping to see Albon on top with his Williams in Italy
Alonso on high performance podcast
Just saw F2 car for next season - what a rear wing 😉
I think it looks great. There was an interesting article on Autosport that suggested the design hints at the direction of the new regulation F1 cars with active aero;
Off topic heads up, specially for... @TotosHeadphones and @Ultrasonic_77 ? I don't remember from the top of my head who mentioned putting hours into these games. Anyways:
Starting Sept 7th, those with a Amazon Prime subscription will be able to get Football Manager 2023 for free on Amazon Gaming 😘
