We're taking a thorough look at the sim racing setup advice ChatGPT gives us, we'll see if it's complete nonsense or if it can actually help you get faster! 👚MERCH teespring.com/...
The aero calculator does NOT change the ride height of the car. The rear wing setting yes, but not the rest of it. You have to change the ride height on the Chassis page with the "ride height" setting just below the corner weight's on each wheel. Check the iRacing manual for the Corvette if you do not believe me, its a very common thing that confuses people. The aero calc is to be used for looking at ride heights in telemetry and using an average of the FL/FR and the RL/RR at a given point on the track gives you the aero balance in % at that particular moment.
Love even looking into this kinda thing, you got me started on it with the last video. I think something it does well with is helping to understand the car it self better. Like askin or “prompting” something like, “ what are the advantages and disadvantages of driving the (insert car here) in simulator (insert SIM name)?” To add to this or even just start out with this. “How can I best take advantage of driving the (insert car here) in (sim name here) on (insert track), to achieve the best lap times?
I think ChatGPT is trained on older data, so you gotta be really specific with your prompts as you gotta know if the info you're requesting was available when it was trained. I think you're right, it is a good starting point for finding out more about car/track/sim combinations, but as I stated in the video, it gets a lot of stuff wrong sadly so don't just trust the AI blindly
@@PowerQ heck yeah don’t trust it blindly, my specific questions were about the Honda NSX EVO from ACC, and I already did a ton of reading and research on the car beforehand just trying to understand the car and the idea behind its creation and all, and when I asked a few questions it’s actually helped me to summarize a lot of info I already knew but didn’t have it in quite an easy package to remember it all at once. Also it seems we may be able to correct the information given, I’ll have to test it out to see if it remembers what I corrected it on, or if it will still give the bad information, or as you were saying obsolete information as well. Thanks for the reply.
That could be one of the problems I was facing in the video, but some of the general setup tips chatgpt gave were completely opposite of the truth which gives me the heebie jeebies
@@PowerQ you know what, I have an idea. Because we were both asking it to give us help with setups, but here’s the thing setups are always driver dependent as well. So without it knowing our level of experience or driving style it would probably lean into more of a safe setup. I wii ok next what it might do with stating at least the driving type like aggressive, esports, novice, Pro and the. Get crazy with it and say your style of driving is the type of racing you prefer as in Rally, drift, ect. It would be wild to see it make a perfect setup on a GT3 track for a driver that’s more akin to driving say a nascar or Rally lol
@@PowerQ no worries, good video, i think that it could be a good tool to learn if u can indentify a problem properly like when u say understeer out of slow corner , or middle of corner, etc., then do changes it suggest one by one so u see how it changes cars behaviour in that part
