NEVER!!! I'd like to know more about this CAD data. Is it in .dwg format? How big are the files? (I use a lot of cad at work.) Dictator. posted:Just a controller for now.. I picked up a Logitech G920 wheel for Christmas, and it still feels really strange. I like it, though, and I'm going to stick with it.

tuo posted:I'd actually have to search in what format the data I got was, but it was from a CFD setup, and was a pain in the rear end to turn back into something I could work with (I'm not into CAD, but mostly visualizing stuff, so I mostly work with Cinema4D and Maya), and even worse to turn into something you could print piece by piece on a cheap, really cheap office 3d printer. drat, so cool. I followed open wheel back when there was a race here in Denver through Champ Car - I could watch the race from my apartment - but when they imploded in 2006 I sorta stopped following. I've been getting back into F1 a lot lately, and I was just interested in seeing what was out there in CAD. I do a lot of CAD/GIS work for environmental surveying through my work, and it would be more fun to play with a model car than, say, a river crossing.

I got the impression that there were also a lot of stories of the type that you don't tell your kid, the kind where there was a LOT of alcohol involved.

quote:In F1 Esports the margins are so fine that if you’re 0.1 seconds off then you’re not going to be on the front row, you’re going to be sixth at best. So it’s just about chipping away at yourself mentally. Got a 1:26 lap at Monaco on my XBox, quitting my job to focus on Esports.
