#iracing #gt3 #ferrari - Hry
I've been a simracer since before that term was invented. Many moons ago I had a really good race with someone (if I remember correctly it would have been Race Driver 2 or 3) and in the chat after the race we were exchanging pleasantries (GR ect...)when they asked if I'd heard of Katherine Legge. I said I hadn't. I think she said "You will" Now I have no real way to know if that was really her but since then I've become a big fan
Great racing there my friend. I think though you would be a few tenths faster just through right gear choice alone. The final chicane is 2nd in this car and T1 is 4th and the left after the esses is 3rd.
A good tip is that if your car is right on the red line moments after you exit a corner, you are probably in too low a gear coming into that corner.
Love the content as always sir!
Another great race Will, always love the enthusiasm you bring to your videos and races. Still holding the number one spot for sim racers for me, all the best dude :)
Good vid. He was catching you up after turn 10 because you're holding 1st gear between 10a and 10b and hitting the limiter...then having to shift while going uphill. He's probably short shifting to 2nd between A and B or holding 2nd throughout both corners and just maintaining a slightly higher minimum speed. These are powerful GT3 cars you don't need to be at the very top of the rev range all the time if the corner isn't quite suited to the car's gearing....its ok to be in a higher gear and lower revs and just let the torque pull you out of the corner. This also helps preserve tires and prevent understeer. Everywhere else you held him off quite nicely but he was reeling you in up 10b into 11 big time.
Pay attention to how Jason prioritizes positioning his car in a SAFE area if Will were to lose control. This style is unique to real life drivers, especially endurance drivers. Sim racers don’t have a team to let down if they catch damage, so they don’t need to prioritize safety quite as much. (It still matters, of course)
The really cool thing is that this is another method of overtaking - everyone makes mistakes, so he makes sure he’s always ready to take advantage of it. If you’ve ever wanted to try an iRacing endurance race such as PLM, just using this method alone will get you to the end in mid pack, regardless of the split.
Yep I noticed that too. So different from how most people race in sim.
I'm new to sim racing and I've felt that I'm a bit timid in comparison to the other drivers in the races I've done. That said, I tend to end up mid/high in the results simply because I'm able to keep pace and avoid/capitalize on other driver's mistakes. Thanks for the comment and making me feel a little better about my cautious driving :D
Man i love these videos, We only just got a very basic wheel and pedals xD. Probably wont be upgrading with the cost anytime soon... So just gonna soak up your rig instead :D
Hey just fyi you're shifting slightly too late. According to the notes section for that car you want to shift right when the lights turn solid red. If they start blinking it means it's not optimal.
Quest 3 review please! When all the reviews dropped i immediately searched for yours lol. I know VR isn't your primary focus but damn do i lean on you for my sim racing needs!
When you have a race with clean drivers on iracing it can produce some of the best sim racing experiences.
100% agreed!
It’s magical
You should share this with Bargs , his commentary on this would be epic . Great video, Will !
Great stuff Will. Great to see you testing your race craft with a V8 racer. Hope we can see some MORE OF IT. As im only on a console it will only ever be a dream for me. "That includes racing you" Put this in the poolroom😀 Thanks Will, Take Care.
Sensational. Well done!
Thats hilarious that he ended up spinning exactly as I did on mt panorama to avoid hitting you as I tried to close in for the straight! good times man hahaha
Keep it up. Really enjoy these races.
It's always ALWAYS awesome to watch your races !
I think I have more fun watching your races than you do racing them!😂😂 Always display some great fun my man! Been a fan a long time now! Keep it up bud!
to race with your legend!!!! is absolutely epic.........
I love the Ferrari and road Atlanta. The car feels so good
Yeah sim racing is great! Good race Will
Great race and always love the content.
You have truly made me miss sim racing like a living fish on dry land; misses water! Loving the awesome content; in the process of building a brand new sim rig & hoping to race you sometime in the near future's pipeline!
Thank-you for the awesome content. 👌
All the best 🍻
hahaaa that was so much fun to watch,im a V8 supercars fan so i know who Jason is but wow,that was an awesome race, and will, what's it like looking in the mirrors and seeing Jason almost chewing on your rear bumper,shame he had a spin,hope you get to race him again,big thumbs up will, faaantastic as always 👍👍👍
Now that is what simracing is all about
you are leaving a lot of time in turn 6 its that last turn after the Esses. you are down shifting 2 gears when you can just drop 1 and keep the foot down mate at least 3-4/10ths just there
hey will, optimal shifting in this car is when all lights turn red, not when they blink
This is what racing is all about no dirty driving
I'm impressed with how well you drove and watched your mirrors at the same time. Very nice!
I think Jason took the corner before he lost it a bit wrong , which set him up for that left-hander wrong. That and him coming in too hot behind you caused him to lose the back end. Just a guess, though.
awesome driving! great sportmanship
The fact that you have to use your real name is a genius move by iRacing.
Genius is a bit strong of a word. Just about every sport you can register for requires you to use your real name. The exception is eSports that also have a large child player base. Gran Turismo or Fortnite have plenty of adult players, but exposing children’s names is against the law in many countries. iRacing doesn’t have that problem…plenty of 40 year old men whining like children
You don’t have to actually. Using a prepaid card you can give whatever name you want.
Edit: Also many people can have the same name and they get a number at the end of their name. So you don’t really know who you’re racing unless the person posts that race somewhere.
The other year I ran a race against Juan Manuel Fangio
@@TheOfficialOriginalChad Iracing needs a parent consent form not to mention its expensive, it is genius because it gives people the opportunity to test their level against real life drivers.
This is a proper racing game for most adults, none of that fake kiddie player name tag id.
Sheesh that set up is amazing 🔥
Agree. The set up is epic. $100k+ for probably the greatest hobby there is.
Tyre model strikes again! Stick with it Jason, you'll get there 🤣
Epic race mate, great to watch 😊
You have a link to your pc set up and Iracing graphic settings?
Very exciting (& interesting study) racing against Jason. So maybe after this, Craig Lowndes might invite you to be the Co-Driver at next year's Bathurst, hahahaha
P.S. When you had that very close battle with Jason, I had a quick look at your "heart-rate app", only to realise it was stuck on 124 the whole time - what a bummer. ; (((
Great to watch but that was some very naughty defending.
What was naughty about it?
@@boostedmedia Moving in reaction to him, he starts his move and then you follow, then he moves back outside and you again follow. Most race series would not be ok with those moves. Granted this was iRacing though.
Are you like your Grid steering wheel and IT is compatible whith fanatec dd2 thanks Alain from Québec 👍🍕🏎️
Thanks!
Hey mate, regarding the MPX, any trouble with bumping the funky switches when at full lock like Dan Suzuki encountered?
Can’t say it’s been a problem for me.
25:49 Looks like he meant to go full throttle but you were there so he couldn't and instead should have coasted and turned right then heard breaks and a left... AKA you did a great clean defense and forced he it a spot with only one right answer and he did not pick it.... Atleast with my NASCAR brain I think that was clean racing anyway... So great job and glad you got to race him!
love this
Let’s go! I want those strips between your screens. I wish they were still sold somewhere.
asus bezel free kits. pretty sure they're still widely available
You can still buy them, and people have DIY ones posted also that work just as good.
Thank you racing fam! I have triple curved screens I need to see if I can find these somewhere. I was told they no longer have them about a year ago but if that’s not the case then heck yea! Thanks!
Will you ever try a road course in the American stock cars?
What do lights on steering wheel mean?
Happy Bathurst Day 🙂
It is the best, Will you are right.
I’ve just recently come back to Sim Racing and my I racing looks horrible (4090), how dos yours look so photorealistic?
I think on that last chicane you should take back the normal racing line after you have defended the inside line and seen that the driver back isn't going for it. Or am I missing something here? Great driving tho and nice battles! Your pov setup is amazing, it really feels like we are sitting on the car irl!
Could do. But the there’s the risk of them breaking late and rear ending you. Or making a last minute dive up the inside.
immersive
How are you one eye dominant how that work I’m very curious
You can see him bait you from a mile away and I love to have a race like this.
first i thought its real but after checking description than I know its a game
What is all that telemetry and stuff, is that through iracing?your heart rate? Cool inmust know
The telemetry is done through “Racelab” and the heart rate monitor is an app called “HypeRate” on my Apple watch
Hey Will do you use any motion rig?
Yep running a D-Box
Another banger per usual! Phenomenal track etiquette from everyone on this run, that moment on the chicane was so exhilarating😂
Great run Will & all other Drivers👍🏾
Ive spent several hours on AC/ACC & from the complete layout in comparison to IRacing, just the overall experience for the craft, I think I’ll be making the switch to IRacing very soon & look forward to competing with you all!
Cheers mates🤙🏾
Hi. I don't use iRacing personally (I'm an Assetto Corsa guy!), But does anyone know, what is the exact model of this car for a comparison?🙂
This is the 296 GT3
Will we need the race with me and John from Ferrari fixed😂
Haha that one was epic too. What an ending. 😂
Man Jason really struggles around turn 5
I’d say he only did 10 mins or so practice beforehand. He’s obviously naturally a lot faster than me, just less experienced with this particular combo.
he must not be using the VRS DFP
Hey Will! Any chance you'll do a Moza wheel settings guide for the new Forza? Appreciate all your settings videos as I'm not one to want to sit and tinker 😂
Btw there's no 2 ! Thumbs up button...😁
Is it weird that I'd rather spend 100k on this sim rig than spend 100k on a real car?
Haha you definitely don’t need to spend that much to get a great experience though!
Saying ,,Maximum concentration” isn’t actually Maximum concentration
"Battled" sitting on a chair in own home moveless? You guys, aren't adequate in this life.
Nice shirt
Your English isn't all that adequate either, my friend. Relax...enjoy life. Dont let little things like people having fun upset you.
FOV setting is jacked up too high, try experimenting with lower values I bet your lap times will drop.
