I Raced NASCAR in iRacing... And It Was Chaos! 

Nick before: "NASCAR sucks, it's just turning left, anyone can do it" Nick now: "NASCAR is so hard and fun, i LOVE it" 😂😂

NASCAR, how hard could it be... 😅 EDIT: Thanks for all the tips guys! It was so much fun driving these cars I want to do some more soon and try everything you all mentioned!

Fun Fact: At tracks like this and talladega, for qualifying you only need to stick on the bottom of the track

“There’s constantly someone up your insides... and there’s nothing you can do about it” 🤣🤣🤣

6:01 that orange car beautifully dodged that crash

The lesson here: at a superspeedway you cannot take every run you get lolol

If you get to C class you can do the entire nascar schedule, dirt, road, short track, superspeedway, and speedway. You get the full nascar experience and there’s cautions and pit strategy since most races are half the full length race. I’ve won 4 of them and I think you could win some also

You have to push them dont just make a move every chance you get. Teamwork is the best way to go in nascar

"How hard could it be" famous last words

When running qualifying at Daytona, run your first flying lap (and out lap) in the middle, to give yourself a run coming off the banking, then on the last lap, hug the double yellow, and make the track as short as possible. Also, make sure you don’t run next to the wall in qualifying, as the air coming off your car will bounce off the wall, then hit your car again, slowing you down

3:38 Nick be like- if you no longer go far a gap does not exist you no longer a racing driver

Now get in a 410 sprint car. Eldora or Knoxville are definitely the “easiest” tracks, but if you go around 1-55 you will be blown away!

" There's literally someone up your inside, constantly " Ayo 🧐

7:43 thats the same thing denny hamlin did on duels LOL

Nick has much to learn if he's going to do more NASCAR in iRacing. 1: These cars have 5 gears now, so you might want to take advantage of that. 2: Technically, you're supposed to hold your line until you cross the start-finish line, then make your moves. It doesn't seem like iRacing has that rule, though, otherwise you would've been black flagged. 3: For qualifying at Daytona and Talladega, go straight to the wall (you don't have to stay on the apron) and hug it on your out lap. This makes the track longer and gives you more time to build your speed. Then, as you cross the line to start your timed lap, cut down to the double yellow line and stay there all the way around, making the track as short as possible.

In NASCAR they used to have a rule where you are allowed to pass before the line as long as its on the right. However NASCAR has since changed this to where you cant switch lanes before the start finish line, but iRacing has not adopted this rule into the sim yet so it is completely legal for you to do that.

Just a btw… these cars a 5 speed now😂 also, patience is key in pack racing, making moves to the inside and outside when you get a big run will only cause wrecks!

Tips to not cause wrecks and race properly 1: Don't push it three wide every chance you get because that will put everyone in a bad position and cause a wreck or get someone mad at you. 2: Never ever look at chat or takes you eyes off the screen because doing that could literally ruin everything and also cause a big one. It's basically texting and driving except at 170+ 3:Don't wait till last minute to slow down and also don't pass someone when entering pit road, be patient because if you don't then it could end badly or end with a black flag. 4: If you dont know if your clear, don't chance it, wait until you can see the front splitter to jump down like that (unless you have a spotter and then he will tell you). 5: When you are in a draft, try to stay there as long as possible so you can push to the front, unless you know 100% someone will go with you or you can pass the person. A quick summary for this is mainly be patient and don't try to pass unless you know it would be a better move then staying behind someone.

This might be the only nascar event I’ve fully watched

Nick, anytime you race it's pure chaos, and we love ya for it buddy! 👍

First: No, you are not allowed to move out of line and advance your position before you pass the start/finish line. Once you pass the line, however, you can pass as much as you want. That rule stands for every track in NASCAR, not just Daytona. Second, at 3:35, that was a bad move. You should have given the car ahead of you a push. Stay two wide. Staying in the line will help your line advance, as you had mentioned that the outside was really moving good, and it keeps you out of a three wide situation. Getting three wide gives you less wiggle room if a crash were to happen. Notice in real life, most of the biggest crashes happen when they are three wide as nobody has anywhere to go except straight. Straight into The Big One. Third, at 7:02, same situation. Don't go and try to pass, let alone without a partner. That crash was 100% avoidable if you had stuck on his bumper. You and him could've worked together up to the lead. Lastly, at 8:12, same thing as the last point. Stick. To. His. Bumper. I cannot stress this enough. You want to stay in line and get that line organized. Once your line gets organized, it will be so much faster and everyone will try to get into it. Daytona is one of the most unpredictable race tracks in the world. If you can get into a single file line, you have an easier time avoiding situations as a whole pack qnd you can stay there until the end with a few laps to go when you can go step out of line. With 1 or 2 laps to go, if you step out of line, someone will go with you and you can push to the lead. Same technique used in multiple Daytona 500s that has gotten drivers to victory. Overall, superspeedway racing is a crazy difficult type if racing that is unlike anything else. Hopefully you see this qnd can learn from this and possibly watch some real Daytona racing and notice the drivers' techniques. Good luck racing Nick. Edit: And you have a 5th gear. USE IT.

I actually got my first (and only) iracing win on my first attempt with the gen 6 cars at daytona in the rookie series. There was a big crash on the 2nd lap that I managed to get through with minor damage and I won by 32 seconds also that was my first race after buying the new version of Daytona Edit: also this doesn't have to do with iracing but I just want to put it out: I did the NASCAR Racing Experience at daytona last year and it was AWESOME

Also please do more of this. Even just carb cup stuff. Lots of fun to watch

You have to do more of these!

Good to see you in iracing, I haven't seen you since snowrunner came out!

On the starts/restarts, you’re not allowed to move lanes until you’ve passed the start/finish line

Love the vids and keeps it up and would love some more car mechanic simulator 2021 thanks

Great!

@3:46 whoa! accidents happen!

OMG, this one had me literally laughing out loud!🤣😂

orange guy at 6:01 has reflexes

3:25 death caught through the mirror

I love the NASCAR vids,nick

Hey nick couple tips stay on the bottom hug the yellow just don't go below it

If your title was "I raced, and it was chaos"; my reaction to such title would be... "Ah, the usual"

7:42 and 8:19 Alternative Title: F1 2021 Ferrari Tries NASCAR

Please do more NASCAR Vids

I wouldnt go three wide off the start. especially on rookie races until the end of the race.

would be fun to see you do ARCA and trucks as you work up towards xfinity. Short tracks are the best

On the restarts, you aren’t allowed to change lanes until you reach the start/finish line 👍

I am watching this while waiting for my iRace in Legends cars

Definitely do more of the nascar this looks so fun

Of course you love chaos Nick

You need to do nascar at a speedway like maybe Auto Club

YESSSSSSSS!!! NICKYPOO GOING PRO FINALLY!!!

When is iracing rallycross?

Probably one of the most 18+ streams nick made

When chat starts screaming to shift up to gear 5. XD

1:49 that what we nascar folk call running out of talent

Next thing should be bristol, because what could possibly go wrong

Nick gets on ARCA brake weekly and other stories

Laying back on a restart like that is protestable. I wouldn't do it.

most people: dang that crash was expensive me: not as expensive as the monthly fee to play this game

We need more of this

I enjoyed iRacing, especially oval stuff, but it's just so damned expensive. I'll stick to Nascar Racing 2003 Season (The game iRacing was originally built on)

typical canadian guy be like : SORRY!!??

*Now you can call yourself Nicky Bobby*

Love to see more of this

3:25 there is literally someone inside

Nick I noticed you were in 4th for a lot of the 2ed race just a friendly FYI the new next gens have 5 gears and you don't have to activate your clutch to change gears unless your going in or out on neutral

Hey Nick could you do some BeamNG drive?

Don’t leave the yellow line in qualifying. It’s faster here. And don’t go 3 wide early in the race. Ppl will get mad and you’ll wreck more than it works. Save the move for later

When he says Canadian NASCAR he means cascar which is now the nascar pintis series

We need more!

Good and awesome video like all time ar12gaming

Hell yeah!

Try dirt racing it's a lot more complicated than people think

Yo race at Martinsville or Phoenix you would have a much harder time.

Alternate title: Nick becomes an American

Nick does illegal starts like David Reagan and passes like Brad K. Because of the restrictor plates the draft at Daytona and and Dega is the way to pass. Even in real life telemetry shows guys that are in the draft are running 1/2 to 3/4 throttle while the leaders run flat out. All I know it this looked like the old EA NASCAR days with guy spinning out for no reasons.

little did he know there are 5 gear in the new NASCAR Cup Car

5th gear while drafting and then gotta be patient with the runs

great start, but i can coach you if you’d like 🤣

Rubbing is racing - Days of Thunder

I love it my boy nick and keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 👍 funny 💯 😄 😆

"who needs spa" Me - a belgian

Ok. The next gen NASCAR would be fine if they: Fixed the wheels by giving them an interliner, made them steel and not aluminum, more than 1 lugnut, smaller wheels Fixed the axles by making them metal and not McDonalds happy meal toy plastic 4 speed transmission (H pattern), 5 gears makes no sense No more rack and pinion steering, way too dangerous And PUT THE NUMBERS WHERE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE. They have been in the middle of the door for 70 years. Now throwbacks cannot look good. There you go. How to fix the current NASCAR. Also, thank you Honda for not entering.

We need more nascar videos plz

Nick, you've got 5 gears

In Canada do you guys turn right instead of left?

We want more nick

Send it!!!!!

Nick you have to bump draft Don’t try to pass just draft

You shold try dirt racing

Nice

hey nick you have a steering wheel you should asetta corsa

You should try to drift on assetto corsa

Can you do a career mode on Nascar Heat 5 or Nascar 21 Ignition?

U need to try the dirt midgets go right to go left

An Iracing driver races in the xfinity séries

The next gen car has a fifth gear nick

NASCAR is the best hands down

Good game 🎮 👏

Here before Nick gets demonetized ✋

I am so triggered at Nick rn I might just like the video

Yeah more iracing

Did he compared that boring oval to Monza?!

NASCAR, with a F1 rim.

why do you use inflections with almost every word?

Lol, you didn't even shift to 5th gear
