Which overlays you use for iRacing?

I find Rookies at the weekend is a demolition derby. But like you say identifying dangerous drivers and let them through works well..

Hello!I really like this,inspired me a lot and i started practicing more! keep it up

I need 5 weeks from Rookie to A class in Sport Cars.😄

Awsome!!! Finally someone to define trail breaking

thank you for posting this because I’m getting iracing soon and I don’t know any races that will happen in rookies and I don’t want to spend money immediately cuz I dont got it like that good vid

Awesome video. I too have recently gone back to Iracing. Currently using a t300 setup. Hope to see you on the track one day. Racer name: Phillip Webb

Good on you, always interesting comments, your English by the way is good, also good luck on the motorcycle, I have been riding since I was 15 and still going. What sort of bike are you going to ride? This is a good track but can be a bit tough.

hey man, you should check your pedals, maybe clean your throttle area or contacts (don't remember what set you have right now) or set a small deadzone at the top of the range (preferably in the pedal software, not in iRacing, that is a nightmare to set up). I can see some flutter when you are full on the gas. Might be costing you valuable time. BTW have you limited the range of the brake intentionally to not overbrake too much? That trace looks suspicious to me. Also noticed, that you were being followed by Jonathan Felix. I have raced with him tonight in the GR86 cup and we had a small incident together. Overall racing incident. I spun him out when he drifted slightly into me in Druids

Hey i was wondering what is this series called in iracing? I couldnt find it through the search.

Hey Thedo, great video. Yep, get the bb back in fixed. At least 4 clicks. I go 6-7 clicks back in the Merc and do low 57s in fixed. Also, would be cool to see your incident count in the overlay. About the incident in the last corner. It is hard to do, but sometimes you can avoid these incidents by checking the closing speed of the following car and realizing he will crash into you. If you see this is going to happen you can get off the brakes a bit quicker or even go on throttle. It makes you miss your line, but could avoid a crash. Maybe not in this case, but in general.

Nice work, these things happen.

The first incident was a little bit on you. You sort of squeezed the guy next to you, thinking it was just 2 wide, but he had a third one on his inside and you pushed him into that guy's front and he pitted himself over his bumper. It was a bit of a fustercluck. Pretty decent pace. Try playing with the BB more to the rear, so you can reduce the ABS activation on the fronts and improve turn in for corners.

Nice moves and a good pace on the early part!

Great video!

suellio almeida has a racing course if you are wanting to get faster you can buy it. watch his channel if you want to be convinced. my advice would be try a pro setup and maybe use the gears to turn the car more. get consistent brake markers and the reason you are probably getting understeer is that you may be trailing off too quickly making the front go light too soon.

This looked like a though track do drive

This track is pretty tricky. Especially the double right hander after start. I did not practice a lot but I managed just about 1:46s. Managed P5 in GT4 fixed and 22nd to 6th in the SCC. Just keeping it clean and planning my overtakes, trying to throw off people ahead with faked moves and avoiding aggressive racing gone bad gave me a lot of places. really tough braking hard enough to stop and not enough to push into ABS too much. That then kills front end grip and understeers if in ABS when trailing in. I race M4 as I said in previous video and I run about 1% less BB than default, sometimes even slightly less than that to get better turn in on brakes. You seem to be dropping brakes too fast, going from full brakes to trailing. Not enough braking during transition. Definitely look into Suellio Almeida's Press Less Technique for brake pedal control. Make sure you have your heel lifted when braking and just measure the pressure when moving into trailing

Hey Man! KZfaq algorithm sent me here to help I guess haha! Love the idea of showing your journey and GT4 is my favorite series! I'll say this was a super tricky track and took me a few hours of practice to get my times down. Definitely very technical and doesn't flow super well to me. I was able to get down to 1:44.8 at Navarra this week in the Porsche, so hopefully I can help a little! I only watched the first 10 minutes, but some pointers to help: Looks like your biggest problem is what you mentioned: understeer (which is everyone's problem with GT4s, especially coming from the pointy MX-5). Watching the vid, I see you steering a ton into the corner and the car is just pushing wide. I can see you're trail braking, but it's just not quite enough for the GT4s. The best thing I'd suggest that helped me a ton is to watch this video and try what Suellio says of spinning the car out on purpose: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mryWdtl-yMqxqIk.html&ab_channel=SuellioAlmeida He gives helpful techniques on how to do it. Once you can learn how much trail braking it takes to spin the car, you can reign it in and hopefully find neutral steer through corner entry, mid-corner, and corner exit. The idea especially on this track is to rotate early before the apex, then get on the throttle early before you even hit the apex and neutral steer all the way to the track out. My fastest times, I was barely turning the steering wheel through most of the corner and using the brake pedal and engine braking to steer. Other things that helped me a ton are looking up the "press-less" technique from Suellio, and having light hands on the steering wheel (almost using only your fingertips to let the wheel adjust around to the road surface). Another tip (which I can't tell in your video) is to be careful with the ABS. My best laps I was only slightly in the ABS on the hardest brake zones, then out of ABS when turning in. ABS kills rotation (in iRacing at least). This was especially hard in the first corner as you have to brake hard, release the brakes a little, and then brake hard again before the sharp hairpin. Hope that helps and hopefully I'll see you out on the track in the next GT4 race! Subbed!

Tough race. Yeah, certain car and track combinations just aren't fun to drive on, let alone to race and compete on. Personally I HATE Navarra. I'd rather play football with a shotput, than to try wrestling with a GT4 around this circuit. But at least you survived to race another day.

I just started iRacing at the end of June and I’m already up to C class in series Formula now in early July. Completely stopped playing all other devs racing sims this is the one to dedicate your time too. I now have a Fanatec DD clubsport F1 rig.

Thanks!

Keeping your cool in the race really payed off! Nice racing!

plz get rid of these pedals. they hurt my eyes

Gratz on the new lap record! The competition in this season is noticably harder compared to last season, adds quite some tension to the race!

The Dutchman came out 13:29 HO!

first off: you underated as hell. second off: you are wholesome. third off:if you really think discord is a good diea go for it my man! (this my first video that i havw whatched from you)

That is the story of my past 3 days. They start hitting you on the form up lap these days.

No overlays? 😢 I don't own misano yet, so I took a week off. 😅 That was a tough start, like a pinball in a pinball machine. I guess your focus got ruined after that. Noticed a lot of inconsistent driving, pushing too much into some corners and losing on the exit. Also that made for an unstable platform and you often almost lost the rear, trying to compensate for the bad entry and mid corner on the gas exiting. The double right before the long straight was the worst offender. You came in too tight, did not prepare for the exit and had a bad run out of it almost every time. definitely lost a lot of time on that straight

This is great content. Thanks for sharing your advice and recommendations, it's much appreciated. You forgot to say, "Let's go green and keep it clean," at the end of the video.

If you plan to take racing seriously for the forseeable future, you should definitely look at some mid range pedals with a loadcell. It will change your braking game and your life. It definitely has done that for me. I went for the CSL elite V2 pedals. There are a lot of options for decent sets these days. It will take you time to get used to it, but your braking confidence will go through the roof (if you set the pedal correctly, lots of guides on youtube. I used Boosted Media guide). I think I gained like over a second or more per lap after 14 days and kept improving my technique over the year I have it now. Just dont go for the hardest feeling brake right off the bat if you get an adjustable elastomer stack. You can learn trailbraking on potentiometer brake as well, but it takes a lot more effort and focus to do well. Before I went to a loadcell, every braking zone felt like stepping into mud, not knowing what will happen next. nice recap of your season. I hope to see more of the GT4 stuff from you.

Nice! Been waiting for this one 😀

How were you able to try out different cars last season? Do you have to buy each car you want to try out or is there a way to try them for free?

Nice video!

That white car driver was a clown. Used bump to steer on you, but luckily he got his sweet sweet karma in the end. I absolutely burst out laughing! That orange dood was so aggressive. You can often tell by how they drive, what is gonna happen. Lucky ending, congratulations mate!

I decided to also focus on GT4 one car this season, but I also run the LMP 3, cos I want the achievement for multiclass running every class every week. If you don't mind, you should be able to run both GT4 fixed and SCC multiclass. It is 2x the length, though. But you will learn a lot about managing traffic and avoiding take outs from faster class If your frames suck, try looking up guides to get best bang for graphical buck. I would suggest having Max Cars at 63 but draw like 20 in front and 4 in mirrors. Also reduce the amount of pit stalls you draw, I heard some people had small stuttering when pits were in their FoV even when they did not physically see the pits. It is pointless resource drain.

We've all been there!

Tough start mate, but still a lot of good moments in the video! Also looking forward to the season recap!

Great video - New to iracing - short and straight to point - thanks

Just subscribed hope to see on track sometime

which league is this in iracing?

Fun to watch, as always! Have you decided on your new ride for next season yet? 😀

Well done mate, it really was a Gool video! ;)

Great Win!

Great video! Enjoyed your commentary.

That was a really enjoyable race to watch! I can’t believe how fast the front runners in these races are… Mazda races always seem to have a few guys who blitz me no matter how hard I practice

Welk wheelbase heb je? Je force slaat mooi tot geel, nooit rood. Als ik dat doe krijg ik niet gedraaid (mss een mazda nog net). Je FPS zijn wel aan de 'lage' kant, 100-120fps voelt vaak beter. Wel mooi gereden :).

Hey! Nice race. Do you use Blips of throttle during the race?

Mooie race weer! Je zit mooi voorin het veld

very nice, Im starting and your videos are super helpful.
