hey is it me or does hyundais rally car look sexier that the current f1 ar?
vivid stream
Rally 1 cars look fantastic.
I wish there were more of them, but that's what happens when the cost of entry is so high.
It'd be nice if they'd bring down the cost. The F.I.A. knows that bringing down the cost does wonders for racing, and they just did it with the Hypercar class.
But, despite that, they're adamant on forcing the hybrid platform. That's just going to raise the already high price even further.
They desperately have to simplify it if we want to see more cars competing. That's why the S2000 class was so great.
remote sigil
yeaaa
vivid stream
Anyway, I went off on a tangent.
The current Rally 1 cars all look really good, especially in their gravel specs.
I think it's a rare example of form and function in equal measure.
You take a hot hatch, already designed with form in mind, and give it a functional kit.
Touch it up with a good livery, and it covers up the blemishes.

Today we learnt
solar sparrow
@buoyant shale (I'm saying this here so the convo isn't shut down) I think some of randy's ideas for indycar were good
like the 50/50 split on ovals and non-ovals
and his attempts to get a more lucrative tyre deal, the new chassis, etc.
he really wanted indycar to finally put the split behind and make it a mainstream thing
and also he managed to bring back chevy
and lotus but they were so horrifically bad we don't need to talk about them
buoyant shale
and his attempts to get a more lucrative tyre deal, the new chassis, etc.
Tbh the tyre deal was a good idea from a financial sense but seeing how Firestone had zero problems and everyone liked them
Ofc didn't go over well
50/50 split ovals and non ovals would be nice if there actually were enough ovals for that FUCKING ISC
solar sparrow
ISC fucked them over
because they found themselves locked out of some nice venues
like homestead which was a staple back in the day
buoyant shale
So many ovals that would be good for Indy are locked behind ISC
ISC sometimes allowed IndyCar in but they never promoted the races at all
Meaning the grandstands were near empty
That California 500 race I posted? Yeah that was a part of the IndyCar Triple Crown yet got almost no promotion at all
solar sparrow
and as a result now the only ovals we'll go to in 2022 will be TMS, Iowa, Gateway and the obvious one
buoyant shale
ISC has tracks that would be excellent for IndyCar like
Michigan, always produced some pretty damn good racing, similar to Auto Club ofc but Auto Club is becoming a short track
Although when without ISC I think this wouldn't happen because clash with Detroit Belle Isle
Chicagoland is pretty dead nowadays while it literally produced the closest finishes in all of IndyCar history
Kansas is similar
Homestead Miami, excellent oval, would work as well
And they also own The Glen which is a excellent road course
solar sparrow
lesson of the day fuck tony george
buoyant shale
and the ISC

Literally throw in Chicagoland, Michigan, Kansas, Homestead and maybe a New Hampshire for good measure
And you basically already have that 50/50 oval non oval ratio

i find it hilarious how in the first 2 years where cart guys decided to run the 500 they won (based montoya and castroneves)
(castroneves also won in 02 but by that point he was a IRL regular)
(also gil de ferran in 03)
it's also funny how in all of the IRL 500s (1996-2007) the only americans that won were buddy lazier in 96, cheever in 98, buddy rice in 2004 and sam hornish jr in 2006
but hey a series for americans amirite

And of playoff races in general…
They own six of the ten, with the other four all being SMI tracks

Always rewarding the “best” leads to dull racing a lot of the time
This season would be shit if by June we knew Larson or Hamlin was gonna win the title
It doesn’t make sense in F1 for a whole bunch of reasons
solar sparrow
that's kinda part and parcel of racing
foggy fulcrum
Which is why I’d never suggest it for F1
solar sparrow
some seasons are boring
foggy fulcrum
Right but it ain’t
solar sparrow
some seasons are fun
foggy fulcrum
That’s what I’m saying
Like, every season in NASCAR is at least, exciting
No, the “best” driver doesn’t always win
But that’s not because of the format, that’s because of their own late season collapses
Most of the time, the best team does at least get to the final round

Like, every season in NASCAR is at least, exciting
do you mean under just the chase or the old winston points system
solar sparrow
thing is it's always going to be like that because it's manufactured

the reason why the 1992 season is remembered so fondly is because a 6-way title fight at the finale is so out there

the reason why the 1992 season is remembered so fondly is because a 6-way title ...
It wasn’t a 6 way, it was a 4 way
Which is exactly what we’ve got now
foggy fulcrum
Yes I know
But two of them really couldn’t win without everyone else retiring
And then also scoring well
foggy fulcrum
And it’s a four way fight every year now
Larson won the regular season title on merit
That’s in the books
And he also brought in more points than anyone else
And still won races to help him advance
Being the best is still a huge advantage. Harvick collapsed.
Harvick, at the end of the season, when it counted, wasn’t the best.
solar sparrow
he was arguably the best driver
foggy fulcrum
Look at Truex this year, second most wins of anyone but he’s not had the consistency to challenge for the title under either format
He was good up front
He’s faded at the back of the year

in my opinion the most consistest/best driver should be the champion

Every other motorsport works like that
foggy fulcrum
You can watch any other sport and see that
solar sparrow
oh
foggy fulcrum
Why can’t we appreciate NASCAR for what it is?
solar sparrow
every other motorsport does it for a reason
solar sparrow
it does
the point of a season-long championship is to determine the best driver throughout the course of a season
foggy fulcrum
It doesn’t. Sports literally have to be different to each other
“Every other sport kicks the ball so we’re getting rid of sticks in ice hockey”
solar sparrow
under a playoff system there's a decent chance that won't happen
ice hockey and football are two completely different sports
foggy fulcrum
Right and?
solar sparrow
nascar and, say, BTCC aren't

And?
It isn’t a season long championship
So…
foggy fulcrum
Crowns a regular season champion, decides the playoffs grid
solar sparrow
i just generally dislike the idea of
foggy fulcrum
I just don’t get why people can’t learn to appreciate it for what it is
foggy fulcrum
NASCAR is NASCAR because it has playoffs. It would suck without them
solar sparrow
disagree
foggy fulcrum
And 9 times out of 10 the people complaining about them still watch 15 years or whatever since the last full season championship
solar sparrow
NASCAR went quite well for what 53 years without a post-season just fine
solar sparrow
we seem to have different ideas on what nascar should prioritize
foggy fulcrum
Sport’s grown since the introduction of the Playoffs
solar sparrow
entertainment or sport
foggy fulcrum
They’re the same thing
solar sparrow
no
foggy fulcrum
Sport is an entertainment medium
solar sparrow
oh and another thing
the playoffs prioritise winning races
yet we had a winless champion in the truck series
and nearly one in the cup series
and another thing is that weather could play a significant part
dale jr. won his last race at a rain-shortened event at pheonix
and (correct if me I'm wrong) shortly after the 2020 finale it started to rain
knotty egret
the whole playoffs seems like a gimmick to me to be honest
knotty egret
what
foggy fulcrum
That’s just something they said
knotty egret
isn't it "win and you're in"
foggy fulcrum
Right but not “you have to win to get in”
But one of the main changes I’d make is remove win and you’re in from the regular season
Michael McDowell should not have taken a playoffs position away from Austin Dillon
Plus it encourages too many teams to rest on their laurels after their first win of the year
solar sparrow
I mean wasn't this a thing during the regular chase system as well?
especially during the JJ domination of the mid to late 2000s
foggy fulcrum
Honestly I’ve no clue
The Chase makes zero sense to me
And I’ve not really tried to understand it
solar sparrow
i mean it's relatively simple
the top 10/12 in points after 26 races have their points reset
and it's a 10 race dash to the finish
foggy fulcrum
But one of the main changes I’d make is remove win and you’re in from the regula...
But yeah id get rid of that
It doesn’t encourage winning and I don’t think winning is even something they need to encourage
I mean seriously, who isn’t trying to win?

Like it’s exactly the opposite of esports, real sport, next to no human challenge
Best you can do is sorta robot wars it, which was at least human remote controlled and they fought each other and that’s still died off twice

Remotely controlled vehicles at least have a human aspect that is fun
ROBOT WARS YES

Hi
vivid stream
So, what's your budget?
pearl heron
400 dollars
vivid stream
And better yet, what level of karting are you at?
vivid stream
Do they have any requirements?
pearl heron
And better yet, what level of karting are you at?
I did it casually till now
pearl heron
FIA level 2 I guess they said something like that
Something was stage 2 lol
I will wear literally anything
The only thing I care about is it should look cool
vivid stream
Let me pull up Alpinestars and OMP.
vivid stream
Those are my preferred brands.
pearl heron
This looks so cool
vivid stream
Okay, I think you're right about the certification.
vivid stream
This looks like a good start.
Now, was your four-hundred budget for just the suit?
- No gloves, underwear, or balaclava?
pearl heron
I was thinking suit + helmet, but I guess I'll increase 100 more
pearl heron
They say any basic karting helmet would do
With similar safety Ranking thing
They showed me one actually
It was black, nothing written on it
Actually I was about to buy this one
It matches with the suit
vivid stream
You're not sure of the exact certification?
I'd imagine it's the current Snell or previous FIA certification. That's usually standard for car racing in North America.
Perhaps it's a bit lower for karting, but I don't see why it would be.
pearl heron
Just tell me the best I can buy, because i don't feel like buying stuff again and again
That will cost overall more
Lol
vivid stream
I wouldn't cheap out on a helmet. They can last you years, from a regulation standpoint.
vivid stream
Well, yes and no.
If you were jumping into the FIA karting leagues, yes, but if you're starting on local and regional scales, no.
pearl heron
Yeah it's Regional rn
Actually there's a university here
They host karting tournament every year
Im preparing for that
There's a friend of mine who started karting last year, bro literally bought a 1000 dollars suit, like why
vivid stream
I'm about to spend upwards of about a thousand dollars for my helmet, actually.
Sadly, this stuff isn't cheap.
pearl heron
Oh god
vivid stream
Granted, it's a car-racing helmet.
pearl heron
Seems like I gotta ask for some money from dad
Yeah I'll arrange the money, atleast I won't die if I have a good helmet lmao
Well actually there are some formula 1 replica suits
Selling for 200-300 dollars
Those look really cool
vivid stream
Well, karting helmets are usually cheaper. Don't be turned away.
pearl heron
But I don't trust them
buoyant shale
vivid stream
So far, I like the suit you picked. It meets the regs, and is higher-quality.
buoyant shale
"RACER understands the 20-year-old with three years of FIA Formula 3 experience could be in the frame for a reserve driver role with an undisclosed Formula 1 team."

Not yet. Let's pick out everything, first.
Okay
The alpinestars don't make helmets right?
vivid stream
No, just suits, boots, gloves, and underwear.
vivid stream
Yeah.
eternal ravine
iirc my whole suit, helmet, rib protector, etc was around $800 in total
vivid stream
Do you know your size, by the way?
pearl heron
Do you know your size, by the way?
Yes I do
Also these shoes
Is it necessary to buy Rib support?
vivid stream
Do you have any documents with the requirements?
pearl heron
Do you have any documents with the requirements?
No, I didn't bother to get it actually
I didn't know this was so difficult to buy
vivid stream
So far, all I know is that it's FIA-2, and evidently the previous FIA-2 standard.
pearl heron
I can get it tomorrow if you think I should
vivid stream
It probably is.
But, we can still shop around and get a general idea for the price.
I think we can pick another suit. Some of these match the qualities of the KMX-3 V2, and are cheaper.
vivid stream
Well, Alpinestars has a few.
The KMX-9 V2 looks all right.
It's just under three-hundred, and meets the same regulations.
pearl heron
Wait lemme have a look
vivid stream
pearl heron
Yeah just saw that
vivid stream
It's in short supply, so you might have to get it from another source.
pearl heron
Yeah I can get it from a local store
Btw I just confirmed, my freind has official Formula 1 Racewear wtf
Man's rich
Can you even get that stuff
vivid stream
You can buy the F1-grade gear from some companies.
