    QUESTION: What's your favourite Hypercar?

      Probably the Cadillac

    i honestly love the BMW and the Ferrari. I’m strong and quick in both. But the Peugeot is fun just to mess around in. Plus it looks sick

      Yeah it’s a really unique looking car, keen to see how the new one feels when it comes to LMU

    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 měsícem +1

      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 .

      @@alexkayracing exact. Because in ACC you can use a button for breaking. No pedals needed. on / off is enough.

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

    • @alexkayracing
      @alexkayracing  Před měsícem

      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

    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.
