    Love how complex these hypercars are. I play this with gamepad and it was such a blast and a challenge . They really cookin with this game right now.

    Great video, i dont driver Hypercars im a GTE guy, will look at applying techniques to that class.

    • @alexkayracing
      @alexkayracing  Před 22 dny

      They will definitely help you drive the GTE class faster as they also don’t have ABS. The engine braking technique is the same just probably not as fast as a Hypercar

    nice. Most ACC Gamers don't know hou to brake a car, because there, they only learned to "STOMP" as hard as you can.
    That has nothing to do with real life. Now they have to learn how to drive a car correctly. =D

    • @alexkayracing
      @alexkayracing  Před 16 dny

      You can definitely see the difference. I’m currently reviewing the Moza R5 wheelbase and the pedals are not loadcell. In ACC I can use them okay, but in LMU I just keep locking up everywhere cos I have no resistance in the brake pedal .

    Biggest thing for me is adjusting my braking points as they are about 10m earlier on lmu than on iracing

    • @alexkayracing
      @alexkayracing  Před 20 dny

      That can also be okay, in the example exercises were those braking points I gave about the same as for you in iRacing? If so then you are fine

      @@10mmGR yeah there’s quite a few differences between the hypercars on LMU compared to the GTP, especially the low amount of grip you have in slow corners in LMU and the way the battery deployment works compared to iRacing.
