Hey everyone, I’m back for some Assetto Corsa action on Low Fuel Motorsport today. One thing’s for sure, the Mazda MX-5 Cup at Lime Rock Park is not going to be kind on the safety rating! Race one is a complete disaster, but I do go back to give it a second chance. Will I survive with my SR intact?

Im Jon Fano!! Great race mateee! I enjoyed a lot fighting with you!!

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Congrats on the win! I wish I’d been able to keep chasing you… we could have had a race-long battle! See you on the track again soon mate 😃

@linzkirk Месяц назад

Love the respectful sportsmanship here. Both great sim racers.

@TheFlying-Scotsman Месяц назад

Lime Rock's a tough one. Least said about the first one the better but huge congratz on 1st pole and a brilliantly hard fought very good 2nd place.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah I feared the worst going into it, and it was every bit as dangerous as I’d expected! Well happy with the pole though, purely because it got me far enough ahead to avoid the race 2 pile-ups! Cheers

@Daniel_cste Месяц назад

i found out that starting from the back is also really valid in AC, you have overtaken half of the field before completing the first lap. But Great Video as always Chris, the incident in the first video is downright comical i just had to laugh all the way through it. Car after Car just kept it flat into the incident, and you being in the center on top of that lmao😂

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Very much so. In that second race, I passed a good 7-8 drivers in the pits getting repairs on the opening laps alone. In combos like this, starting at the back and taking it easy will almost always give you lots of positions 👍

@meisterlaggersimracing Месяц назад

Congrats on that great race! 🥈 I really enjoyed watching it! 😄

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Nice one, glad you enjoyed it! Cheers

@Teqqlesdoessimracing Месяц назад

I had to cover my eyes on that second race when you went wide with a deep sigh, followed by "ooh Chris" 😂 Great racing with @fano6307 and well done keeping it out of the wall! - I think I'd almost give Jon that lead and chase anyway, though it looks like he had the legs on you in the end.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Absolute legend, thank you David, very much appreciated. Honestly, that overtake around the outside of T1 looked so impressive as I ran it through in my mind! By the time I had two tyres on the dirt, I realised I may have overestimated my ability a bit 🤣 Yeah Jon had the edge on pace… reckon I could have chased him and challenged him with a draft, but think it would have been a tough ask to stay in front of him. So well happy with 2nd 😃

@studio9guy Месяц назад

Great video, Chris. It took me too much time to realize that starting in the middle of the pack was never worth the trouble. I'm not fast enough to qualify at the front, so now I start at the back and wait for all the carnage to gift me a better position. I doubt I'll ever get out of Rookies. Sheesh.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

I got really lucky in qualifying for the second race, I caught a slightly slower car just in time to get a bit of a tow out of the final corner and down the straight… think it gave me a bonus 0.2 or 0.3 on the lap time. If I’d started on the second or third row, I reckon I’d have been wiped out for a second time! There are definitely loads of freebies to be had in this combo, just by hanging safely at the back. By lap 4-5, I’d already lapped a good 8-9 cars that were stuck in the pits after wipe outs.

@grole00 Месяц назад

This is uncanny. I just got back into racing after a year's pause, joined my first ever LFM race, and sure enough it shows up on RU-vid the next day! (Albeit I was in another split). It was good fun. Like braveheart I too seem to have grown out of raceroom. Great video too of course. See you on the track 😏.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Hope your races in the other split went well. Maybe we’ll end up in the same split next time!

@stormforce9521 Месяц назад

Thanks Chris, congrats on the podium 👏

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you Tony!

@Hiroschima Месяц назад

I had to look away as the tyres went onto the grass into T1 then Chris, its a shame you didn't get the win but look on the bright side...you learnt from last week and came away with second in the end well done!

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah I was really lucky to keep the two right tyres on track. That corner is horrible if you get on the grass completely…. Takes ages to find your way back to the track! Cheers 😃

@nvenza8183 Месяц назад

hi thats my yellow car at the thumbnail 😂 that wreck i have no where to go, that number 56 car rejoin was awful

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Ahh unlucky mate. You must have been the third car when we were three wide. None of us had anywhere to go… I got pushed into the car next to me, and that pushed him into you. Hope you have better luck in the next races!

@nock-racing Месяц назад

Lime Rock is a great track and can create some great battles . . . .you just need to survive the first couple of laps as you found out all too well. Unlucky on the second one Chris, but still a good result 👍🏻

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you mate, yeah I was really relieved to qualify up front for race two… usually I’d have been slap bang in the middle of that wreck!

@SmithersSimRacing Месяц назад

Great racing Chris. that was a wise idea to settle for second place 👍

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yes mate, I definitely learned from my ACC disaster last week 🤣

@firstjayjay Месяц назад

Congrats on the second race. Tho, feel you should have had 1. But good race Chris

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah possibly. Jon definitely has more pace than me, but Lime Rock is a difficult place to pass. Would have been a tough ask to get back in front, and stay in front. More than happy with P2 in this one. Cheers 😃

@Flashms Месяц назад

Smashing Racing bud, That first race though, that poor Alex was out of control and took out half the pack, it happens to the best of us. You kept your cool man under pressure its so hard to do. Well done bud. Those MX-5 are an absolute blast to drive in these races. All the best

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you mate, yeah that was a comedy of errors in race one! Two times, I thought I’d had a lucky escape and survived, but it wasn’t to be! Glad I went back for a second try though 😃

@sssss4644 Месяц назад

Dang, you should report that guy 2 times bad rejoined

@EhPlusSimRacing Месяц назад

That first race was nuts! So much carnage! Congrats on your first pole & podium in AC/LFM! 🥈

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you mate! Yeah I was glad I went back for another try. I almost didn’t!

@MrMiniPilote Месяц назад

That was quite a drive. Thanks for the content.

@jester3265 Месяц назад

Quality. Another edge of your seat race, really enjoyed it.👏

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you Lee, yeah there’s never a dull moment!

@raggiezockt Месяц назад

Hahaha that's my usual experience in racing xD.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Haha yeah. On the approach to that corner, I sensed that it wasn’t going to end well!

@ericjack3218 Месяц назад

Well done, Chris! Second place was well deserved. Jon Fano looked to have a bit more pace than you on track. Holding him off for the whole time would have been a tough ask. That first race and even the incident behind you on the second was making me cringe. I see so many other drivers failing to lock brakes when they have an incident!!! So much of that carnage would have been avoided if drivers weren't careening all over the place.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah, I agree completely. He definitely had the edge on pace, and I don’t think I would have lasted the whole race under that sort of pressure! Think I’d have had my best chance by chasing, and then using the slipstream at the right time. More than happy with P2 though!

@braveheart4603 Месяц назад

I've just registered with LFM having got into sim racing last year from watching your vids Chris. I used Raceroom as my initial learning experience but recently became a bit disillusioned with the driving standards on there. It was great when i was getting up to speed but now I'm generally at the front and the aggressive, all or nothing driving really puts me off. I'm hoping the higher splits in LFM will have better driving standards but we'll see i suppose. 👍

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Nice one, I love hearing that people have got into racing thanks to my videos. Unfortunately there are poor standards in all sims, and LFM rookie series can be a bit wild too! I’ve been having a good run of races on ACC with LFM lately. Keep at it mate 😃

@doodlebeanz5634 Месяц назад

Great race Chris, that pressure from Fano is enough to send anybody wide mate, you did well holding him off until the pit re entry threw you off, unlucky there.I think holding for P2 at the end was the call to make there mate. First race, what a pile up hehe, hard to get through that unscathed. Good stuff as usual, looking forward to ACC video next!!

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Thank you mate. Yeah I was pushing so hard, in the unlikely event that Jon would make a mistake. But that near miss over the hill was a wake-up call… calm down and settle for 2nd! Cheers

@Matt_Rowson Месяц назад

Great racing and commentary as always. Currently tying to get my LFM licence...😧

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah it can be a bit of a challenge, that. I see it’s Hungaroring… that was the track I did mine on. I remember it took several attempts! Good luck, would be good to see you on track.

@Matt_Rowson Месяц назад

@@chrisrogerssimracing it's been inspiring watching your Sim racing journey, from a rookie, to fighting for wins and podiums 👍

@lowfastracing Месяц назад

I just watched 45 seconds but i laugh so hard... :)))))

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Haha yeah, a classic CR catastrophe 🤣

@QDGscope Месяц назад

Doing my rookie races has been carnage. My poor safety rating.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Haha yeah. I was really nervous about doing the race a second time… another big SR hit, and I’d have been in danger of being dropped back to rookies on ACC too. Thankfully it turned out ok. But it’s so dangerous out there on this combo. Good luck, keep at it 😃

@DanielBORN394 Месяц назад

Yeah, those MX5 races often end up like this if you're in the middle of the pack and mostly there's nothing you can do about it. I do wish that yellow flag rules were enforced on the sims.

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah it seemed like disaster was inevitable in this one! Yellow flags in sim racing are cursed… if you do ease off when they come out, chances are you’ll just get smashed from behind (or lose all your positions). It’s really tough.

@linzkirk Месяц назад

It was carnage in Clio cup too, But super fun. What radar are you using? Nice vid

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

I was tempted to try the Clio as well, and may still brave it at the weekend! The radar is an app from Race Dept called Helicorsa 👍

@lewisgordon1490 Месяц назад

I would like to see you in Dave Cam's new Ford Legends league😇 I would probably watch both of your video's of the races. Dave's and your edited w/ commentary versions 😂

@kzh910 Месяц назад

That rejoin in the first race is absolutely awful judgement. Took out half the field.. You should report him - that’s a crystal clear penalty by LFM rules

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Yeah it was brutal. I did consider reporting, but I’ve tried several times on AC and they always get thrown out for not meeting guidelines. Not sure what I was doing wrong, but it ended up taking too much time.

@andreabattelli7346 Месяц назад

sudden general failure of the brake pedal, simracers can no longer brake or have forgotten how to do it

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Haha, yeah. Close your eyes, keep it flat out and hope for the best. Tbf I was also accelerating before the second (and bigger) wreck, but I thought I had a clear track in front of me. Just wasn’t expecting danger from the side.

@meecob Месяц назад

That rejoin was a noob maneuver. Shame

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Haha yeah. Adrenaline pumping, the need to get back on track quickly. If the track wasn’t so crowded, I’d have been able to move over and leave a car’s width for him to rejoin. But at that moment, it was impossible. Disaster was guaranteed 🤣

@meecob Месяц назад

@@chrisrogerssimracing great vid man. So true

@davecamyt Месяц назад

I've sent you an email via your website 😁

@tuska757 Месяц назад

how do you guys do .56? i cant get a low .57

@chrisrogerssimracing Месяц назад

Luckily, I’ve been given a setup to use for this series from a community I’m in. It’s made a big difference to my lap times… on default setup, I was only managing a 57.5. I am clueless with setups so I have no idea what he changed, but it’s set up to allow you to carry more corner speed and get better runs onto the straight
