I’d recommend the GR86 between the Mazda and GT4. It’s free, has been run on a lot of free tracks and you can race multi class in the Production Car Challenge series.
Hope it's calmed down, was a madhouse when it came out, destroyed my scores, lol
I hate the way that thing drives
Just started with iracing and switched to the GR86. Best racing i had in a while!
I own a GR86 so having one to beat on in the sim. My car thanks iRacing. Lol
It think that thing is just awful. I stay in the Mazda for the production car challenge…
Hello guys. Just got my membership and I'm eager to learn the ropes. This video is a great video for rookie day one racers. Thank you for the advice, looking forward to learning from everyone.
I just got into iRacing and this has helped in a ton of ways, thanks for your recommendations!
Whats recommended in road is that you focus on ONE car first to understand the physics. AFTER the Rookie car that is, as these have sort of peculiar car physics. So lets say you`ve made it past Rookies and are now eligible to race Ferrari fixed (GT3) and that tempts you. Well, get the Ferrari, and learn that car. Like, for real, not only for a few weeks. And get the tracks in that series. iRacing in road is playing the long game. To actually master a single car usually takes you years. And with every change to the physics model of the sim, there´s a new learning curve again. As opposed to the vid, I STRONGLY discourage you from buying the Cup Porsche as a relative noob. It´s one of the hardest to drive cars in iRacing, and frustration is guaranteed if you don´t have a sound understanding of driving physics in general and iRacing sim physics yet. Trackwise the choice is as subjective as it gets. I´m German and I don´t like Nordschleife, for example. I like the American tracks, yes, Sebring and Daytona and stuff, but Spa is a good choice for an European track as it has a good mix of technical, slow and fast sections, so practicing Spa will hone your skills.
My garage has been locked up and all my cars are now wheel clamped. Thank you, I-racing subscription for looking after all those who have finance your business.
This is akin to your landlord not letting you retrieve your furniture when you move to a new apartment. How this isn’t blatant fraud shows you how the digital age has basically specialized in stealing your money.
Don’t buy one thing at a time, use the discounts they offer, over time it saves a lot of money.
minimum 3 at a time!
Great video you guys! Definitely gave me a better understanding of what direction I should go
the main cars I'd go through to have fun and get good at the start are probably the mx5 -> skippy -> porsche cup
If your gonna run the gt4 or tcr in D class, when you get your c class you can save some money by bumping up to the 30 min open series from the 15 min fixed
I like the GR86 and Renaul Clio very much. Slow cars, but fun and close races there :)
Slower cars always have some of the best races.
do you think is clio worth to buy, can i find enough lobbies for racing?
@@bugraaltundag5416 My opinion is that it is worth it. But its a personal opinion. This car matches my claims.
I always find races. Sometimes only two splits, but for me its enough.
But you can check the results and have a look if there are enough races for your time slots. I never saw an empty slot. But that are my experiences. I have done no researches.
@@bugraaltundag5416when you look at the store page for a car it lets you see how many servers are using that certain car
i'd add Road America and the Dallara lmp2, lots of use.
It is worth pointing out the Mercedes W12 became legacy content after a year and you should expect the same of the W13 which is probably why the participation is low (was never an issue for the W12).
HPD remains the best $4.95 I have ever spent even though racing it is limited to leagues..
I've just taken another look at Iracing online .
I'm happy to see all the Porsche cars that are available.
My 3 favourite real-life cars are an MX-5, Mini Copper, and any kind of Porsche .
The 992 Cup Car is a special beast. I love Porsche. Old Porsche, new porsche, and any other type.
It's cool that all these cars are available to use.
Good video. Thankyou.
Besides the GT4 series for D class, the 488 GT3 has been giving me killer races and a sneak peek at what’s to come in C
Are you talking about the D class 269 GT3?
yeah, last season it was the 488 but the 296 this season still burnsss@@cordslol
@@sumtingcool1235 ahh okay and yes if u can keep it under control although i do NOT like okayama
@@cordslol those are the ones you gotta grind since it likely doesn’t suit your style. Also not a big fan lol. I like the version of that track that the Miata’s ran. What’s your go to series?
@@sumtingcool1235 well right now since they have spa for ferrari 296 i say that one i am pretty clean in spa, but yeah definetly not my racing style as i feel it is too small and easy to do a mistake in. the miata in the okayama circuit was go to for me thats how i got up into D class the other day
1. Stick with Mazda mx5 and learn the handling / physics / free tracks
2. Obtain d license (be prepared many rookies will crash into you)
3. Once mastered mx5, go to GR86 and repeat as before learn the car and available tracks
4. Once mastered purchase Ferrari 488 and join the fixed races.
Ferrari 488 EVO is a great option as well. Fixed series in D class and more series it can compete it in C and up. It also performs well in GT3.
True. But I really don't like very much how the car behaves. I don't know why, but at some tracks, I just don't feel when it starts to slide. Currently at Oulton, it's not a problem. I tried Rudskugen, which is next week, and it's so strange, I can't describe it. I would expect it to slide downhill, but I can feel that and correct. But at some other corners, the car starts sliding, I don't feel it, and I spin.
During downtime, I tested M4 GT3, and the car is predictable, stable, great FFB, and it's on my to buy list once this season ends.
@@alpha007org Maybe you could increase the brake balance.
I would suggest against open wheel when you first start, almost any contact particularly wheel to wheel is deadly, where slight door to door sedan contact is much easier. If you learn to drive the Porsche cup well you can drive anything.
W12, W13 are my recommendations
Thank you so much for this video! I have about $120 that I’m going to spend on content and I need to do it wisely lol
I agree with the GT3. The BMW is the way to go. Ive driven all of them and it feels the most balanced to me.
This game is more greedy than EA and thats an accomplishment
Lmdh are now a good choice. The Cadillac is awesome , bmw is cool , and now Porsche will is coming next season. Hopefully they make an actual lmdh specific series
only bought 1 track and 2 cars so far: the gen 4 oval car, the ferrari 296 gt3, and daytona :D
can i test cars before i buy them?
thx
So wait you don’t have options? How to I race Honda civics and what are the popular tracks for that.
You should have mentioned the Ferrari as a starter GT3 car due to the fixed setup beginner series that typically has a large turnout.
i definitely bought too many cars and tracks, i probably regret at least half of them today.
just one gt3 car, one gt4 car and the 992 cup car would already do the trick for me.
i also should've only bought tracks that i actually like to race on, but instead i also bought many that i dont like and hence i never really have driven them.
i spent probably 300-350€ on content. 100-150 would've sufficed.
iRacing always lures you into buying more content by making one car in a class op, depending on the season and the track-rotation is also fare less repetitive than it used to years ago with far more possible tracks on the schedule.
I have a fair amount of content as well. For me, it used to feel like wasted money and participation credits, until AI was introduced. I use AI to practice or just have a little setting up an endurance race etc. I especially use it on weeks when my go-to series have track-car combos that are meh.
@@vt6020 AI is indeed a great addition to this game and i feel like its the best AI we have in a racing sim. However, as i really am sometimes also not up for online racing for months i would still love every now and then to have a cool AI race, but it does not sit well with me to have to maintain my subscription for racing offline so to speak. If there is just one area where i feel like iRacing could improve in its policy, it would be this, make AI racing offline free and let people use the content they bought. Its already the most expensive price per content piece we have on the market.
@@th3orist It would be cool if members could still use their content without a subscription, but I do kind of see why iRacing needs to do things the way they do. The subscription cost does cover the server usage and software maintenance etc. The nice thing about iRacing being service based is that hot fixes and server maintenance are always taken care of in a timely manner, in my opinion.
You didn’t mention Stock cars (NASCAR) and Dirt ovals
Should be called the Loaners guide... yes i hate the subscription model, i'll see myself out!
EMREE!!!
this is random but your voice calmed me down so quick idk why
Who doesn't want to see Max versus Chase at Daytona and Monaco? If you want to get crazy you could add Herta/Newgarten/O'Ward.
I think each would win their specialty (duh) but by what margin? What do you say when the specs for each car, or tracks change?
I so love motorsport!
(my ability in the sims only shows my age-)
an advise from an oooold timer (10+years) yall dont have too rank up the ladder, yull be punished more driving lower class races when youre A class .
This is not Gran tourismo !!
Think of iracing as real racing, get some skills before heading out so you wont kill everyone 😇
Lol, Chase Elliot? Really?
Buy none of them.
TLDW: buy Assetto Corsa Competizione
Yep
Lol no, although i do own the game lol
A solid game , No doubt 💪
one should own both ,as they Are very different and yull learn alot from both .
@@Baltuc_Racing yep so true
@@Baltuc_Racing but in reality there is only 1 reality so every sim/game says that they are the most realistic so actually ALL sims should feel the same because there is only 1 reality.
Regardless I enjoy ACC, Raceroom, Forza Horizon 5 (no sim-car game) and would probably also enjoy iRacing if I had it.
Just I wished 1 common thing for all sims out there and that is MUCH MUCH BETTER DAMAGE like a car can’t drive 1 inch further if it hits a wall or car with high speed. Every GT3 in all sims are tooo forgiving regarding damage, you can still finish a race even when you hit a wall with 200km/h not straight hitting but sideways hitting or so you all know what I mean.
That’s one really big point where I have a: oh yeah it’s a game offcourse. I want DNF when hitting car or wall…=ultra realism
Downvote for poor information sharing at 10:40
You're not buying anything. You are leasing when it comes to iRacing.
YWNBAW
"Try to be the next Max Verstappen" lol i would not wish that man's face on anyone
Buy ACC ....far better overall
I have both but iracing is numero uno. ACC is second best.
@@edwinvandenberg3633 why you place it on 1 ? What are your points ?
Not a discusion just curious
@@bmwM3M5M6 Because the diversity off the cars and tracks. That's the one and only reason.
But if i want to race a GT3 or GT4 car i always play ACC.
@@edwinvandenberg3633 I understand so basically iRacing GT3&4 is not good enough in comparasion with ACC …?
ACC is good, but its not better that iracing, which is crazy, because iracing has pretty much any type of racing, ACC is gt3 and gt4, and iracing is still better. .
