When was the last time you saw a driver sitting on top of his race car? You may have confused iRacing with a video game. They’re not marketing to gamers. They’re marketing to enthusiasts. As for the costs I’ve had a few conversations with them and they’re not rolling in the profits. For the first 4 or 5 years (using…

Triple monitors vs VR is a bit of a matter for debate, though I think in general, most people who try VR coming from triples, stay with VR. Either setup is vastly superior to a single monitor though. For the record I’m using VR (Rift).

And just for clarity, opting for VR doesn’t mean you no longer need a wheel.

This is the easiest thing for autonomous systems to handle. Your spidey sense points out a bad driver and you are extra vigilant around them. Meaning, that you are less vigilant when your spidey sense is not going off.

But it is also the racer’s responsibility to take every reasonable precautions before going all out on a track. There are usually warm up laps where you will scan your environment at lower speeds.

Except that assumes he would not have crashed had the sandbag not been there.

I don’t think this is a problem for track day events

The waiver doesn’t excuse gross negligence, put differently the person signing it believes the track owner or event organizer has taken every reasonable precaution to make the track and areas around it as safe as possible.

I understand where you are coming from but this is about her achievements, not about Iran’s.

Apparently the driver had previously complained to family and Tesla about auto-pilot’s handling of that very location.

Hey remember how I said yesterday that I was pretty sure that there were serious corners being cut in Uber’s self-driving program, the discovery of which could drive Uber out of business, which is why they settled with that woman’s family so quickly? And how the settlement must have been for a truly monumental amount…

We can look at that data and come to our own conclusions.

We’ve been arguing that for days here. I still call BS.

Not only have they likely encountered similar situations in similar conditions given the vast amount of testing they’ve done, but they also have an extremely extensive testing system that they could easily use to test out their software’s response to the situation: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/08…

Unless they’ve encountered similar scenarios

As much as I distrust Google and the whole Alphabet conglomerate, I’m pretty confident Waymo knows how their systems perform by now.

So the good news is that quite a few are commenting about this pilot, or that pilot, being overlooked in this article. Good in that there are probably too many women, and young girls, in motorsports to mention in one, concise article, hence your request for us to reach out to you further.

Not quite.... The hood broke and popped loose after one of several brake-checks by Karam. She made a valid move on Karam, and he responded by acting like the immature spoiled brat he is, putting everyone on or near the track at risk for the sake of his ego.

The video and your eyes are two different things. Anyone who uses a dashcam at night and reviews footage would know that your eyes see much better then the dashcam.

Don’t forget Courtney Force who won Funny Car Eliminations in Phoenix last month and currently sits 3rd in Funny Car points. She’s gunning hard to join her dad and sister as NHRA National Champions.

Hardly. Christina Nielsen has back to back IMSA GTD championships. I would say that’s a lot more than “pretty good.”
