  • Honestly, if they have proper rain tyres (and suitable setups for fixed), I don’t see it being too bad. Having watched a few friends toil in rookies before making the step up, it’s just another slice of the skill-pie for drivers to acquire and master.

    If I were the the one making decisions, I’d build in some degree of “weather progression” behind the Class levels. For example; Rookies could only ever see damp track at worst, D could encounter light rain, C+ would be fully unlocked potential.

    My only actual concern is how authentically they will visualise spray, not being able to see anything really equalises the skill curve!



  • So I curate/edit my camera shots on my Fold3 in LightroomCC, using a cheap USBC-SD reader to get them off of a non-USBC camera.

    It will never replace big-screen desktop ”finishing” for me (even though I have moved to CC so the core experience is the same) but is perfect for curation/down-selection/checking while on the move during longer trips. Being able to break up what would used to be long dedicated process of curation & editing once I get home into quick “I’ll have a quick glance while I grab a coffee/wait for my partner” sessions completely revolutionised how I enjoy my hobby, taking away what ended up feeling like a chore during the already sad post-trip come-down stage.

    For context I’m a pretty trigger happy amateur and tend to over-shoot, so for every moment I will often have 3-5 different takes - my shutter count for longer trips can get pretty ridiculous.

    I rarely end up using the stylus, mainly because there’s nowhere to store it in the phone so I never have it on me when I need it. It is worth saying though that I also daily drive a Surface Laptop Studio so will defer to using that for its stylus if spot touch-ups are required.
