Youth and skill will always be beaten by old age and treachery....
Just sayin'...

Just replaced all the pots in my steering rig with hall sensors, and just turned 62. I'm hoping the new hall sensors will at least last as long as I will. I was in the Mybroga GPL league and it was always a blast.
Best part is with the new sensors I managed to shave off a few seconds off my best times.
I like the older cars and tracks anyways, although I wish they made the Mexico track from the 60's. I hated those half buried tires, but the layout was pretty good.

I ported the historic Hermanos Rodríguez over from RF1. It's pretty good. I could send you the link to my plethora of ported tracks. Mexico looks like this:

You're too young, Dann. That's the 80's version, not the 60's with the concrete-filled tires sticking halfway out of the ground

But your track compilation is the ultimate of what is available

Concrete, no wonder they kicked the living heck out of the F1 cars when they hit them!

 

[Please Stop This]

lol you're never too old to be a kid

Well, they were filled with "concrete" in GPL Not sure what the real life ones were like.

66 and sim race everyday. I'm also a High Performance Driving instructor in Sebring, Florida with 300+ students under my belt. I instruct folks driving Arial Atoms, to BMW, to Corvettes, to Porsche, to Ferrari 488 etc. at Homestead, Palm Beach, Sebring, and Daytona. I also just just drive on these tracks and although I had a Corvette Z06 until recently that did 174 MPH at Daytona, I sold it, and now drive a Miata that pokes along at 125 MPH!

I love to see all these posts from OLD? racers but you stiil have not caught 85. I never thought i would see the day when I was the oldest. I just can not beleive how bad i am getting. At racing and golf. Thanks for all the nice comments. It is good to see seniors are still active in computer racing.

I sent you a direct message, newbert.

Could you PM me the League info? 56. Will have a lot of free time to race in a few months. Right now the schedule if crazy (trucker). Hopefully I can get into a few races. Just have to figure out why my key binding isn't sticking with my shift paddles (TS-PC racer). Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you.

Almost 59...still fun.

51 here.

I wonder what it is about sim racing that attracts the Gen X'ers more than any other age group?
