It fascinates me how you are just chilling at the back, getting off throttle and being super passive and still be faster then me doing my best with q settings. Awesome driving
I tried it myself in endurance races and it proved to be faster. You get more consistent, your inputs are smoother etc. and in the end - you're faster (or at least still as fast).
Ok Davey boy, before I even go past the 30 second mark, I have to tell you that while all your content is top shelf, all your Merc content is even better. Love it. Cheers mate!
Hey Dave, I totally appreciate and can relate to the upset, but you you sorted what happened on all counts to good conclusion. Great driving as always.
Great patience, Dave. If you had mirror #1 ON you might have seen the spoiler missing? I wonder if that would have helped or hurt your effort. Obviously you felt the car problem, so kudos. Keep ‘Em coming you are entertaining to watch.
Good race Dave. I love how you remain cool in the face of carnage. Re: the mid-race replays, I think I preferred seeing the incidents at the end, as, having shown us exactly what happens mid-race, we can't really engage with any speculation about an incident (such as the netcode incident in this race). Anyway, great videos as always, whichever way you choose to go!
GET BACK INTO GTE!!!!! The series i started with in iracing and watching you. The new series is awesome and competitive, and at the best tracks we voted on. Road America starts today.
Hey Dave, Congrats for your 80k followers.👏 With the AMG, I think you up-shift gear too late. When the blue rpm line switch for the big red rpm line, at this moment you have to up-shift the gear! It will helps you to have a bigger run on the other cars!😉
41:52 I had to laugh so hard, oh Dave 😂 I could feel the pain you were going through 😅 Loved your choice of car here. The merc is such a good old lady ❤
Just A thought Dave, I have four screens running iracing in triple screen windowed and then the fourth screen up above for OBS and others things. If I take the mouse to the fourth screen and click anywhere without returning the mouse to click anywhere on the triples, for whatever reason I will get random stutters, click the mouse anywhere on the triples, runs perfectly smooth. It may not help but again, just a thought.
that merc that turned in on you on lap 19 is unbelievable, I don't understand how people feel like they can drive like there isn't anybody else on the track.
The hit that removed your wing shouldn’t have happened. And if you had no wing at all your car wouldn’t have handled as well as it did, just a few seconds behind those two cars. Plus, no wing you should have had more straight line speed 🤷♂️ Irqcings damage model still needs work. Good scraping Dave 😉
I do like watching you Dave, helps us noobies no end. Ive finally got over 1300 IR but i suppose i should think about turning off the driving line assist 😊
Very nice. Any chance well get more track guides, like the traxionGG ones for the MX5? Been using those for the previous two weeks on summit point and okayama, wich was really fun, but for the current virginia short track none of the other people making them seem to be able to convey it like your guides.
drove one race with the new ferrari instead of my regular Audi R8 or M4, qualified well only to leave my qualifying setup with 2 laps of fuel in the car, and went from P4 to 24th at the end of lap 2.
So i'm 50/50 on the instant replay, on the one hand its nice to see what happened, on the other hand we can't get angry with you any more when it is in fact just netcode 🤣
Dave I feel like Watching The Wheel of Racers Driving IRacing Vs Real Life Onboards. That the IRacing FFB is a lot Smoother than in Real Life. VS when I watch People Play RFactor or ACC it's more More Chaotic like the Real thing What are your thoughts about this?
Interesting how you lose your reach wing and go slower in a straight line. You would think losing the drag that the wing provides would allow you to go faster! LOL I guess there was some other damage as well.
Hey Dave. I’m looking into building a pc to start iracing and acc more (currently on ps5). I’m curious to know what cpu/gpu you have and what graphics settings you run in the game?
@TheFrontyer They might be, but not on the aero side. I say that because the car would be undriveable at speed with the aero on the front and no wing. Now down the straitaway it would be very fast once the tires hooked up, but thru the corners it would like driving in the rain with slicks.
@@sky194I think this was a case of the damage model glitching out, I remember a previous race Dave lost his wing and had to retire early because the car was unmanageable.
Honestly nothing has convinced me that iRacing shouldn't abolish the slow down penalty. It causes more hazards (especially at the lower splits), it's unrealistic to any racing I've ever watched, and frankly, I don't think anyone's race should be more-or-less ruined because they took just a little bit too much kerb on one corner. I really don't understand why something like rF2's system is unworkable here, or just give time penalties to be served on the next pit stop, or added on after the race.
Embarrassingly Dave drives Monza quicker with a bent car an no rear wing … than I do in a perfectly straight car . Sure it’s “set up related though .. nothing to do with my lack of talent “
