It was fantastic seeing you in Munich, Jimmy! Great video!
Thank you so much for offering our Jimbo these chances
So cool that you would bring him in, and us through proxy. Growing that fan base.
When are you sending jimmer an offer lads?!
Jimmy, you need to PIN this comment so the world can see this! How cool is that?
BMW Motorsport, thanks for letting Jimmy do this. It was fun!! Sorry if I sound like a father,
but I do have 3 kids and am in my mid 50's. :-D
Thank you BMW for letting this little event happen. Good luck in 2020 season :)

Not anymore
Being a second off from, a pro driver, on a sim he tried for the first time, is god damn impressive.
It’s not really that impressive when you consider that the real driver is driving well within his professionally honed comfort zone with no intention of actually crashing his vehicle real or simulated, whereas the fact that this is only a simulator with no real consequences if he should exceed his actual driving abilities, he could be pushing well past his skill level knowing there is nothing actually at risk. I don’t think the professional driver is making any distinction between his real vehicles and his simulations, whereas myself for example, would drive far more aggressively and carelessly way outside of my normal safety limits in reality, Many people in the safety of a simulator could pull off great times, but could they reliably and predictably pull off those same times 9 out of 10 times in reality when there is actually something to lose?
@@devitomichael I did not consider fear being a factor that's an interesting point.
@@devitomichael it still looked like a pretty good run no matter how you slice it
@@devitomichael Very well explained.
@@devitomichael With respect. That driver will have driven as well as he possible could. All racing drivers have an ego the size of a house and he would undoubtedly have seen Jimmy as a threat, and rightly so, it's a sim. The fact that he got to within one second illustrates he was right to feel threatened. It was impressive.
One thing that i think is underappreciated is how good jimmy got in presenting and interviewing. Always asks interesting questions in a short timeframe, mixed with his humble personality and love for motorsports makes for very good "journey into motorsports" content. Excited to see whats ahead of you mate!
I have being a Grand Turismo Sport series fan because him being the Caster...
He really is man! Jimmer you gotta reach out to Amazon or Netflix for some car show or something. Pitch them a half decent plan they’ll fund anything these days lol.

@@coversix2462 Right? I mean, he was a bit of a shithead when he came in to highschool, but who isn't at 14? I also may be biased, but he's definitely matured.
Michael Turner what did he do lmao
Imagine coming to someone's workplace, who's a top tier professional, and doing their job 99% as good, as an amateur.
It's that 1% that's almost impossible for mere mortals to achieve...... and also the main qualifying parameter for a professional racing driver.
@@KCM25NJL no, he could have beat the time if he maybe had 5 more runs lol, but nothing compares to the real thing with real cars screaming beside you, it’s just a sim.
@@robbievargas8479 of course but it is good practice.
that 1 percent represents a lot of fine details that probably take a while to get down. not to mention there are no other cars on the track and only a single lap to complete.
The real difference is the pro is doing his times consistently and not spinning. Hes hitting 1:29 to 1:30 for 8+ laps straight.
this is exactly how id feel after using a proper wheel instead of controller
😂 bro same, getting one next week
@@sensez513 Im planning on getting one, how do you like it?
@@sjihaabeddien2742 broo it is a 1000000x upgrade to the game like, some people say the cockpit view breaks immersion a bit, but there is another cockpit view with no steering wheel, use that and youll find yourself cruising for hours unknowingly! Not to mention, manual is way more fun and immersive as well, I recommend one with force feedback because it adds that much more immersion, go for it bro! Changes the game in the literal sense ✌🏾
@@sensez513 Damnn thats cool i play a lot of forza in cockpit and manual and i enjoy it but i really want a steering wheel, wich one do you recommend?
@@sjihaabeddien2742 what do you play on pc?
"You can probably swap it for your house"
Absolute bargain for Jimmy
If they saw his house, they would alter it "for the detachable wheel"
Even if he gets the rim only, those look like some nice paddles.
Jimmy is an incredible presentator, is extremely rare that somebody thats got such expertise in one particular field also has the ability to present his own work in a relax and funny way.
I hope that he continue growing this side, you nailed it man.
Dude, how have you not reached 1m yet!? I absolutely love your content, and I especially love how much you interact with and stream to your audience! Here's to your 500k, and hopefully 500 more!

it is in abu dhabi, they have a f1 car and a ferarri 599xx i believe on a platform controlled by high speed hydraulics. its also pretty cheap to get a ride at 100AED but you have to prebook as the waiting list easily gets to 7-8 hours
When the simulator costs more than the car It's emulating.
Until you need to do maintainence, move it to the track, pay the gas, pay for tires, pay for the pit crew etc.

@Robert Tinsey you've made my day
What a real honor is for you to be able to take part in a REAL sim! All in all you probably surprised some people at BMW with how well you did, especially for a first time on such a complicated and realistic sim rig... so congratulations Jimmy for a job well done! now what you need to do is set up, undertake and maintain a physical fitness regimen which would help you in other ways besides sim racing and could, if you really wanted to, get into real racing. Who knows...in a couple of years, if you keep it up, you could be in a real race car, in a real race series!
Thank you for all the content you've supplied online and for being a real person. I think Veronica shows good taste in men. I'll keep watching and hoping to see you improve even more. If I may close with something personal...I think your Grandad would be very proud of you and what you've accomplished. Hugs and smiles from the Colonies.
1 second slower than a professional bmw driver on your second round of laps is insanity. I mean they should consider hiring you for half the cost. I mean wow. Impressive dude. Seriously impressive

What a rad experience, Happy you filmed it.
I'm relieved to see them wearing helmets. Safety first guys. We don't need to hear about another tragic simulator accident claiming a drivers life.
For one thing, it is for realism. I would not be surprised if they even use the full racing overalls when practicing for real.
Then you want it for communications as well.
I went in an F1 simulator, the program crashed druing a lap and when it reset the sim jerked violently and I hit my head on the side of the cockpit.
that's the kind of thing that happens to me though, I was once in a hit and run with an ambulance, and I didn't do the hitting or running.

I had my identity verified for my Google+ business page, and apparently that carries over to CZcams.
I am surprised they don't have some kind of helmet with a wide-angle VR headset since that allows for depth perception. And on top of that it is sooooooooo immersive. Screwing around with it at home and I found myself leaning because I was subconsciously leaning because I expected the G-forces and movement that never happened.
just over a second behind a DTM winner. pretty impressive!
Will it fit in the shed?
He will make the shed fit it.
YOu dont need shed if you can live in the sim rig, its basicaly a car, so you can sleep in the back.
Does it matter? Hell have to sell the shed for the rig, either-or lol

Being a regular old gamer, then getting VR, then getting a racing sim, then getting a decent wheel, then pedal, HB, and Hshift brought me here. We all have different paths. Some more conventional than others.
This really felt like it could have been a bit on Top Gear when it was at its peak. 10/10 will spin again

It's the most realistic simulator rig literally, which is its purpose. But it could be more optimal by removing the chassis for the visibility. Fantastic movement hardware, you could feel the pitch of the car change coming off of DRS.

The sim feels really realistic they simulate the braking by tightening the seatbelt super hard and you’ll have to fight the steering at all time I got so tired after just 5 hot laps
For a guy to come in and in his first time come within 1 second of a professional race car driver is really impressive.

@@hook86 Lol a video game is nothing like real life. Also 1 second is a big difference in a race like this.
@@ReefMonkey still, to be within 2.5% of a professional driver who has raced this sim likely hundreds of times in your first attempt is quite impressive, especially when he hasn’t had the analysis that the professional has likely had.
correction, 1.4%*
@@ReefMonkey that was true in the past.
I guess you’re not aware that many race car drivers use sims to stay sharp and practice when weather or other circumstances don’t allow. Also they don’t use “video games” these are proprietary Sims the manufacturers use.
It'd be cool if they did a tas run to see what would be a perfect run time
@Jerry Springler I'm talking about on this simulator (hoping they made their own program) due to how much time and effort that went just the program getting as close to perfection as they can. Yes ik there is tas for other racing simulator games but it's not gonna on the same level of handling, traction, weight, and power realism. Yes I get that modern simulator games have gotten pretty close to real deal but each simulation game is slightly different.

Fire destroyed my home and rig. I took the insurance money and sold my two cars that luckily survived and I purchased a C6Z. Track day will come. First is to run 9’s in the 1/4. Then on to the track days.

Well my dear Jimmy....when German race drivers & engineers tell you flat out that you impressed them: it is because you did:)
I never realized just how good of an E-Sports drive you might actually be....
I disagree to a degree. I think Jimmer's skillset is the perfect balance between alien and being actually fast IRL. It's "Easy" (as in really hard) to become an Esports driver since every sim has it's quirks you can exploit, but Jimmy has experience in multiple sims and with this experience, plus the RL experience he is gaining through Karting, driving the GT4 car and so on I think he'd have a geniune chance of being successful in motorsport IRL.
This is the coolest video I've seen all day
I got to test one of these in it’s early stages they had it hooked up to a Chevy hybrid car. But the visual part (what you see while driving) was some sort of VR headset.
