They decided to use the Cadillac brand as their racing brand, so they also run their GTP/LMDh (Le mans/IMSA/Endurance racing) cars as Cadillacs.
They’ve also got corvettes in the GT3/GTD categories
Nope, not just you. I live in the greater Seattle area (nearly the tesla capital of the world) and 8/10 times I’m blinded is a tesla in oncoming traffic.
Rivians are also terrible, and most crossovers in the last 2-3 years have been increasingly bad.
Driving a lowered sports car with no windshield tint has made driving at night a horrible process. I’m debating getting a low % window tint just to take the edge off of the headlights.
Somehow alpine has made a worse looking car than last year. They continuously amaze me with their ability to make terrible looking cars from all perspectives. Must be a holdover from their road car division
Would have been perfect without that giant white banner on the engine cover. I like the darker red, the white accents even look pretty good, it’s just that block
This livery goes so hard, much better than the rest of this years and honestly one of the better liveries of the current generation of cars
This entire set is made of insanely good photos. Absolutely love the entire vibe, the location is perfect and F40s make a great art piece.
Very much not a fan. Spa is a race that should be on the calendar every year, not periodically.
The fact that we’re still racing at imola, which produces terrible racing, is baffling, same with half the poorer street circuits.
Money is the root of every problem in this sport, but damn, this sucks.
AFAIK nobody is running against him

The Factory Must Grow
I’m almost 100 hours into my new space age save, and I’ve played nearly 1k hours since I bought it 5ish years ago. By far one of the most enjoyable games I’ve ever played and I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys sandbox games
I’ll go Linux when I don’t need any more windows based software, and there’s been almost 0 progress made in that sector in the last 5 years.
Between games that don’t run on Linux (Apex, CoD, any other shooter) and professional tools such as Lightroom and photoshop, there’s no way to switch to Linux without needing to boot back to windows multiple times per day.
There is no data transfer between RB and RBR. This has been clarified multiple times and the FiA closely monitors what data is shared.
For those with iRacing, how did Season 4 go for you? Make any progress towards some goals?
This weekend I got the chance to shoot my first rallycross event. Despite literal inches of rain, it was some of the most fun I’ve had with a camera.
Nikon Z6, Z 24-70 2.8 S

Rig is a NLR F-GT. It's handled everything I've thrown at it so far, but it's struggling to keep up. The Seat on this rig has been ripped up by my cat, so a sweatshirt and a towel have gone into service covering up the very ripped leather. I plan on replacing the seat soon, so hopefully won't have that problem for more than another year or so.
Wheelbase is a VRS DFP. It's amazing and I love it. Packs quite a punch and does really try to rip your arms off at full FFB. This is paired with a CubeControls QR (Also known as the aliexpress one) and an Ascher F64-USB.
Pedals are also the VRS Pedals. Currently I only have 2 installed, but I do have the optional 3rd clutch that isn't mounted right now. The pedal plate flexes a lot more than I'd like, even with the additional strengthening kit from NLR.
Rig is a dedicated sim PC with a 11900K, RTX 3080 and 32GB of RAM. Triple 32 inch 1440p/144hz monitors round out the setup, mounted to a Rigmetal Monitor Stand.
I also have a Polsimer F74 that is no longer in use and a NLR GT Rim for if I need a round rim.
I'm happy to answer any querstions!

Adobe and ease of use
I need Adobe, specifically Lightroom, because there’s no alternative. I can’t just stop using it as a semi-professional photographer (I make money from it, just not a ton).
Darktable doesn’t handle large libraries well and also is missing features such as AI remove and integration with photoshop for splitting photos up for social media posts.
