If you haven't got anything to say, say it with Powerpoint.

Better yet, read aloud every slide through.

Zero on the first try.

For the ones pissing themselves about their scores - for the better or worse - the test itself is worthless at judging proper colour recognition, monitor quality, cosmic radiation etc. as you can get half-way to a perfect score simply by using logic and building the scales from the end points and then it's just the ol' swap 'n switcharoo 'till the hues lock in.

I'm determined to be the first human being fapping in a black hole so here goes nothing...


















Oh and you won't be hearing from me for the next 24 hours to eternity depending on the outcome.

Great race and epic last laps!

Even though Ewlis Hoemlalthon would set the Top Gear's Cock-o-Meter on fire from a distance of 100 meters, he deserves the championship as Kimi insists on driving like a total n00b if the Ferrari doesn't go up in smoke.

The sensor cleaning mechanism is a gimmick at best, in my opinion.

Takes 15 minutes to clean the sensor, mirror and lens mount connections. I'd rather have less parts to malfunction inside the camera body that I can't switch on my own. In-body VR goes in the same category too, if you ask me.

Thanks for teh gramar sugguestion – will fix it!

Yeah it's dust on the 350D's sensor.

My D80 + Sigma 10–20 was on the tripod and the spare 350D used hand held was not cleaned in ages. Does not make much difference though as the footage itself was not planned to be released 'xcept for documentary purposes only.
Bmup!

Had to update my site and to satisfy my design needs, a photoshoot had to be organized as stock photos would not have cut it. That's me underneath.

A simple RAW conversion ready for post-processing. Shot with three triggered flashes and two cameras (one on tripod for wide shots and interior, second hand held).

End result here: www.mikkohuotari.com

Some more from the photoshoot.

You are probably right in the end what comes to safety margins. I'm probably just a wrong customer for iRacing as I value my spare time more than my money.

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :Says the guy who kept full throttle on despite seeing a car spinning up ahead. I would of been on the brakes the moment he started spinning towards the track, and probably would have been able to avoid it.

No replay saving allowed for reasons beyond me, so no cockpit view from my position either.

You can see that he tried to reverse across the track and he was in a partial blind spot behind the car in front of me.

Quote from StableX :great job. The ovetake was cool as well. That's the one thing I love about iRacing is the general clean racing. Yes there will be some incidents but overall it's so clean!

I'd say it's pretty much the same amount of cleanliness that we have in LFS online racing outside the notorious de_dust combos. I've been taken out many times in iRacing by dumbasses not bothering to look first on their side before making a move.

Got a second victory last night. Very easy race and pulled a hefty 30 sec gap to 2nd. Dunno how.

Couple of questions:

I noticed the wheel isn't anywhere near linear unless I set rotation lock at 900 degrees. Does to Solstice really have that much steering rotation?

Trail braking feels really effective in the Solstice! By far more stable and willing to turn into the corner than anything in LFS. Maybe it's because there are no tyre temp overlays so I'm not afraid to put flatspots and surface temps into red in iRacing.

Also, I guess I'm a dumbass too for driving with full H-gate and clutch pedal setup? I recall there's no clutch damage and I'm handicapping myself with slower shifts?
