Way lighter than a human, far better reaction times. If only they had opposable thumbs, cats could dominate motor racing

Way too sleepy for endurance racing though.
Love the plaid GTI seat!
I acutally got it for free because my father's driver seat was pretty worn out and he replaced both.
What year is it from? That looks like the mk7 tartan, I have a 2020 but different headrest.
mk5 from 2006
Oh WOW that thing really was worn out, I’m seeing the blue/greens as grey
Blue/greens? There never was blue/gree, always has been grey.
I’ve got mk5 seats in the back of my rabbit and it seems to have some blue and green tinge to some of the grey lines.
Maybe my eyes just sucks
My mk7 is def red grey black
Ah. It's possible that VW used different colors for their seats for different models. But the GTI seems to always have red/grey/black at least since the 5th generation.
Oh these are gti seats from a mk5, the rear seats.
I’m probably just misremembering my own car cuz I’m old af lmao
Those lap times must be purrfect
Excuse me that's a loaf
Nice, a fellow simracer in Lemmy :)
What games are you playing mate?
I'm getting into AMS2 after it was on sale in the summer and I raced 12h of Bathurst in ACC the last weekend.
Love the gti seat
here are my two wrenching on the sim
That’s some real kitty power
A racecar indeed.
I have always wanted a force feedback racing wheel but I don't play racing games.
Hmmm...
Toonces NO
"Hey, boss, I can't reach the pedals. Or the steering wheel. Or the shifter..."
My cats won't go anywhere near my wheel-and-pedals computer since the wheel surprised them with its "power on calibration", where it quite noisily suddenly spins itself all the way left and all the way right.
