I really like your calm driving style and patience!

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Thank you! I like to try to keep a cool head while racing as much as possible.

[@T_H_U_G_G_Y]

Hell yeah bob! Good race!

[@lap_traffic]

I agree on the comparisons to the Merc. It makes sense as they (and the BMW) are front engined, the Vette and Ferrari, Mclaren, etc are mid engine.I want to run the Mustang badly, it looks cool and sounds great! Fingers crossed the setup shops work some magic on corner entry though! I don''t think I've got the skill set to run it in fixed much.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

The sound is really making me want to run it this season over the Merc

First time seeing a vid on your channel. Not an iracer myself, but i like the content. Would be nice to see the steering wheel though when you're driving

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Thank you! The reason I have the wheel turned off is it’s just slightly different from my wheel when it moves, so it gets a little distracting for me haha

I had a hilarious GT3 race at spa where I started in 25th position and finished in eighth position but I didn’t pass one person. It was just people wrecking. Gotta love iDemolitionderby

I like to call that vulture racing. That’s fantastic 😂

yep I test drove them both a bunch yesterday at VIR full and the mustang feels like a tank compared to the z06. one of the biggest issues I personally have with the stang is if you start to slide its very difficult to regain control. they both spin rather easily if you arent careful with the power but the vette is easier for me to regain control and/or avoid going off or spinning entirely.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

I completely agree. In practice I kept spinning out of the corner. Just have to have a bit better throttle control in my case.

[@jaguarusf]

Seems like they might have fixed the issue with slowdowns adding time

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Thank goodness. My ego was getting bigger thinking I’m too fast to beat the slowdown 😂

[@Rx_Hx]

visibility and cornering are also an issue in the stang. i had to move my driver height way up to see the curbs for entry/exit.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Yeah, that narrow sunstrip and buldgey hood blocks a lot.

[@thePatGabriel]

The Corvette livery I created in the thumbnail!

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Nice! That’s a sweet paint!

[@T_H_U_G_G_Y]

The corvettes better in my opinion. 😉 but alas I am very biased lol

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Hah! Gee I wonder why? 😂

[@Rx_Hx]

The mustang feels better under straight line braking though. the vette is more twitchy.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

I noticed that too. I tried a race with the Vette the other day and almost lost it down the straight.
