You told me I should try the new Ferrari 296 GT3, so today I’m giving it a go - two Low Fuel Motorsport races in the Coach Dave GT3 Sprint at Watkins Glen, with entirely different outcomes!
For this special ACC double-header, you’ll see me at my best AND at my worst! You’ll also get one of the biggest crashes I’ve ever seen in sim racing. Stay tuned for carnage in what is likely to be my last race of the current LFM season!

Thanks for watching, as always! I’ve never seen a start quite like the one featured in this video. Also, just to clarify… there are still a couple of weeks remaining in the Low Fuel Motorsport season, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make them. So this is likely my last race of the season… I didn’t explain that too clearly in the intro! Enjoy the action ❤

Yeah, normally I like to leave a bit of extra space to allow room for errors, but I didn’t have that luxury this time. It’s to stay fast and flat out up that hill when you’re out wide. So I went in tighter, but knew it was a risk if he hit the kerb. Disappointing, but still happy with the podium. Cheers Joe 😃

Thanks mate. Yeah he did message me right after the race to say sorry… think he felt I didn’t leave him enough space. And to be fair, it was right… I usually try to leave 2 car widths when I give someone space, just to allow for a margin of error. It was too hard to do here, so I had to squeeze him a little bit. There was a car width there, just, but it didn’t allow for any kerb discrepancies!

@@chrisrogerssimracing but if you see his line going up the hill, he left way too much space between you guys. He should have been more to the middle to open up the turn nearing the top of the hill where he went over the kerb. That's on him imo.

Well nice to see you're not blocking and taking the slow line anymore, I see it went wonderfully well! Amusing to see, like a true pro you blame the car. 😂 So Ferrari spent all that money developing the 296 and touch a kerb and it throws itself off the track, good job Kunos! I think the contact in race 2 was due to your swerve toward the inside made him over compensate and clip the kerb, twitching at high speed rarely ends well. Maybe a smidge of your driving time should be spent practicing, especially if you're going to take a new car out for the first time. Well thanks for the video, backs up my decision to give ACC a wide berth for sure. See you at Thruxton!

Yep, no complaints from me over that incident at the end. I usually always aim to leave 1.5 to 2 car widths for space, to allow a margin for error from either driver. But I didn’t do that here. You know what it’s like going up that hill… you can’t stay flat out if you stay out too wide. So I had to pinch him a bit and leave him the bare minimum single car width. But that eliminated any margin for error. And he probably felt he needed to use the kerb when he saw me squeezing. I knew the risk when I kept it flat out. Normally I’m always the one to lift and back out of a fight (you know that!!!) but here I just thought I’d go for it 🤣 it ended with exactly the same result though… me getting overtaken!

Another podium :D At first I thought you clearly didn't give that guy enough room in that pass on you for second but after watching the replay, I agree the curb pushed him wide into you. You could have avoided the hit by giving him more room but that would increase the chance he'd get by. Although you avoided a larger wreck, which was likely after that hit 😅

Yeah! My usual strategy is to always leave 1.5 to 2 car widths, to allow for a margin of error from either driver. But it’s just not possible through that section. Any wider, and you have to lift as your momentum would carry you into the barrier. So I went as tight as I could, leaving 1 car width at most - but yeah, it meant there was no margin for error left. So I wasn’t annoyed at all… I knew the risk when I kept my foot down! The guy apologised straight after too… he said he felt he was running out of room so had to take the kerb. But I knew I was taking a risk by keeping it planted, and so tight, so no complaints at all from me 😃

Another cracking viedo Chris! I'm similar in that I was in the M4 on v1.8 but have switched over to the Ferrari in v1.9. Feels to me that it has a lot more aero grip than the BMW and whether it's the update or the car, it's more engaging. It's a terrible starter though (compared to the new 911 which is a rocket shipoff the line). You're going to have to learn how to brake boost for better starts. Full throttle, hold the speed with the brake and then release. Good luck and I look forward to the next video.

Good question! ACC / LFM is definitely more lenient with safety rating than iRacing. You can get away with clipping the grass and stuff like that. Usually anything below 10-12 incident points will give me an SR gain. I’m amazed I only picked up 4 in the first race - luckily, when I span, I never hit anything, so that kept the count low! Think I got 9 incident points in race 2, so just managed to avoid a drop.

Race one: I think you still did great, all things considered driving an unfamiliar car. Race two: a bit of luck and some great driving got you a deserved podium. You should have had 2nd. After that shove into the wall, he should have backed out and given you the spot back. Perhaps a call for the stewards... Going back to race one and the mistakes on the Inner Loop... it happens. But it looks like you learned from it and knew the Ferrari better for race two. I instead chose to drive the new Lambo EVO2 this season. I found it not quite as planted as the Ferrari, but I was faster in it than the 296. Anyway, on our first race of the season at Valencia (a practice race), I started 18 and finished 12. I was feeling great... one of my best result so far! On the actual points race the following week, I started 17. But on the second lap, I clipped the sausage curb at Turn 12 (Champi Herreros) and sent myself into the wall. Decided to do my mandatory pit then, take on a full load of fuel and new set of tires and run the remaining 40 minutes hoping for the best. Finished 27 out of 29 a lap down at the end. Oh well...

Nice one. That intro gave me a laugh, though. 😂 Are you using the Coach Dave setups? If you are, I would actually suggest the soft setup. Rides kerbs a little better. But going 2-wide into the bus stop, I've found after yesterday, usually results in a 50% chance of survival. One of you is going to spin. In one race yesterday, I took the defensive line two laps from the end and the other driver lost control. Then on the last lap, did the same but this time I was the one who spun off.

I got really lucky with my passes into the loop… it really depends on one person backing out for both of you to survive. 99 times out of 100, I’m the one who always backs out.

Yeah it’s really fun to drive, and ‘feels’ much faster than the BMW. I made a load of mistakes in race one, but that was just me finding where the limits were (ideally should have done this in a practice session first!) Definitely messed up the front tyre pressures, but it still felt a bit more stable than if the BMW tyres would have been hitting 27.5. Yeah as for that incident, he did message me right after to say sorry. Usually I try to leave 1.5 or 2 car widths, just to allow a margin of error. It was too hard to do that here, so I went as tight as possible. But it gave me no leeway when he made that slight mistake.

@Chris Rogers Sim Racing glad you enjoyed it, you looked to have good pace in the first race relative to the other cars around you, just a few errors which happens getting used to a new car. 👍

Batista should have given you that place back. Not cool, by him. I would definitely report.

Yeah, he did message me straight after to apologise. I think he felt I didn’t give him enough room so that he could stay off the kerb. It was tight, for sure. I definitely left him a car’s width - usually, I try to leave 2 car widths just to allow for a margin of error from either driver. But it just wasn’t possible at this section, so I went as tight as I could while leaving the bare minimum space. But I always felt it wasn’t going to end well!

Unfortunately LFM continues to be no better than a Sunday afternoon race at Monza on a Public Server, i.e. carnage. I've watched 100s of LFM races on YT and participated in perhaps a couple hundred and never seen one without your typical ramfest. Shame really; great idea but needs to take a much much stronger line on driver behaviours imho,

This one was particularly crazy. It wasn’t even like it was caused by a horrific divebomb or anything… literally just a dab of the brakes is all it took to cause it!

why why why brake at the start?? all the cars are full throtling and the P1 just hit the brakes?? please tell me he got a month ban, at least, plz!!!!!!!
@chrisrogerssimracing
@chrisrogerssimracing 11 ай бұрын
Well, his reason was because he was P2, but he’d moved ahead of P1 before the start line - so he hit the brakes to try and avoid a penalty for jumping a position before the start. But yeah, it was a catastrophic mistake to make!!!

Yeah a few people have recommended I try ‘brake boosting’ to get away quicker. I’m not sure if I’ll stick with the Ferrari or not for next season… kinda seems a bit boring when everyone else is in it too. Might pick something different
