    I'm within a second of f1 esports but if I can get within 3 seconds of the top acc drivers it's a miracle, it's amazing how much the skills do not transfer when you consider it is just driving a car around a track.
    Saw a video a while back where an f4 or f3 driver was being trained in acc and I think I remember the coach saying that he is very clearly a single seater driver because of the way he throws the car into the entry and then fights with the car throughout the mid corner and exit whereas he should be gradually feeding the wheel in to the corner entry and then gradually bringing out steering angle, just from that he found 8 tenths or something stupid like that. Very different driving styles for the two cars.

  • @EthanDean57
    @EthanDean57 Před rokem +3

    One thing that helped me, coming from GT to formula, was realising and visualising how heavy the car is and how much grip you have loaded up at the final moment before you start braking. Also, in the case of long bends, before I would tap the brake out of habit, but this was prematurely removing downforce so I was going through the corner on a "false limit" as it were. Gently rolling off the throttle instead greatly helped the delta; in a high-downforce car, the drag is such that merely lifting off can have the same retardation as full braking in a passenger car, so I went from braking to not even fully lifting, thereby keeping the downforce up. By being more aggressive before the apex I found a whole new limit, to the point where I was braking an entire marker board later in some cases.
    You really do have to push it hard on entry and just trust it to stick. Driving downforce cars is very entry-focused because you have all that downforce helping you on the way in and the lightness helping you on the way out, whereas GTs are too heavy to be so stop-start so smoothness and keeping the momentum flowing is key.
    This shit is way too much fun.

  • @Laftcranz
    @Laftcranz Před rokem +2

    the sim you're on matters too: iRacing and ACC handle driving aids differently especially on brake application. iRacing penalizes locking up more harshly even if you have ABS and so the driving style tends to favor being more careful to not lock up, while ACC is the opposite where you can smash the brakes on entry and worry more about easing off on exit
    I'm trying more of ACC now and I find myself having to semi re-learn braking having been on iRacing mostly before

    it’s a MAJOR difference, to the extent that after I spent months away from ACC (my GT3 sim) and only did W12 races in iRacing, going back to GT cars took a week or so. The W12 is so smooooth, in the way you have to incur more steering, more throttle, or less braking. Wheres GT was finding momentum and kind of grinding out corners, though the inputs are still smooth.
    It’s funny how similar inputs can be SO different.
    and then I’ve thrown in the BMW V8 Hybrid and Porsche 919 just to really fk my brain.

    I politely disagree about lowering steering degrees helps driving the car in any way, at least for direct drive. You could have 3000 degrees rotation and still having the same feeling and experience just because you would not use that range anyway, and there is no power or reactiveness difference between 900 and 450 degrees, again, at least for direct drives. What really matters it's the in game range, not the range set in the wheel driver. Good games have the correct range already set by default anyway, not sure about other sketchy arcady games.

    Being smooth and not over aggressive in f1 is even more important than gt id say. Because you have no abs or tc you will lock up or have wheelspin if you’re not smooth which loses you a lot of time. And things like trailbraking and slowly getting on the throttle are the epitome of smooth inputs. But maybe i misunderstood you. You know a lot more about racing than me
