No matter if we enjoy Iracing or hate it, we should all unite and get this man a mousepad
😂😂😂
For sure! I would love to make it in the color of his choice.
Forget the mouse pad, that CPU cooler is atrocious. Upgrade to at least a Hyper 212, you will see improvements and way lower temps.
Lol
Kkkkkkkkkk
Me who bought assetto corsa and all the packs for $6 during a steam sale: Laughs in cheap
Same
Currently contemplating my existence
Me who cant even afford a pc to use steam so has to buy ac for 7 pounds of the Microsoft store on xbox 🥲
Stay there please. :-)
Me laughing at AC joke multi-player and AI racing.
iRacing is the pinnacle of microtransactions. No free trial to even see if the game is a right fit, you gotta jump in feet first, only to find out you gotta spend even MORE money for content! $10 for a single car, vs. $10 for a car pack for any other racing game!
vs $10 for some whole other racing game
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j (assetto corsa competizione)
@@matthew.s.mccormick or just AC, or any other older game.
It’s the pinnacle of multiplayer. That’s what you’re paying for. The absolute best online racing experience you can get.
@@ogelove696 it's 11€ only for a month and with very limited cars & tracks.
if it was a game worth the money, they would gain a lot more on offering a cheap or even free trial to get more players hooked.
Glad CZcams recommended this vid, liked and subbed ! Looking forward to more and great editing !!!
I like this guy's content as well slap maybe you2 could do a Collab one day:)
hm slap i have an idea beamng collab
Og slap train
Great editing 😂 this clown can’t even hold a camera straight
ayeeeee slaptrain i haven’t seen you in my recommended since like 2019 2020 i always loved watching your vids, im def bouta watch again now lol
Please upload moreee!!! The editing, the humor, the bg music, basically everything is perfect!
Glad you enjoyed! Many more coming soon.
Just dropped by to say keep the content flowing! Been subd for a while now. Your editing is excellent. This new concept is pretty cool too! It feels very real and relatable. You are doing great! Keep it up!
Very glad to hear! Thanks, Julio. Lots more coming soon 🤝
I never laughed as much as on the "it's lights out and away we go" moment 🤣 Brilliant editing!
haha, thank you :)
Love your videos, always a very fun loving and down to Earth approach to everything!
Thanks for your kind words, Austin 🙏 more coming soon 🤝
This is the content I'm here for being new ish to sim racing as it shows exactly what the experience is really like for someone starting out in Iracing which I want to try some point down the line. Will be watching regularly!
Thank you!! New episode coming very shortly :)
Great editing and pacing on this one, it was very entertaining to watch. Thank you, keep up the good job. :)
This is the type of stuff we want to see, great video!
Good to know. Thanks 🙏
been following for a while and its great to see how much progress you've made. keep up the good work!
I love iRacing, but yes it's expensive compared to the rest. Since you are still in rookies, try out all the rookie content in oval, dirt oval and dirt road. I got it for road but have been having a blast in the other genres. I'm actually surprised how much I like Rallycross
I’ll make sure to check them out, thanks!
I was the same. loved the little club I joined that does road ovals. on a Volvo racing but man it's so much fun when you're doing it
Your content is always worth watching! Keep it Up!
I am glad you posted this! I just upgraded from my 14 year old logitech to a Fanatec CSL Elite with a load cell pedal and the HF8 haptic butt vibrators and that feeling in Iracing when you spin out or mess up and you know its allllll gone already!!! i kept racing last night on Skip Barber and GOT MY FIRST PODIUM!!! I fought for that podium the last 5 laps too it felt amazing!!! Nothing like it!!!
Excellent video mate. Love this style. Very relateable. Keep it up!!
Ive been iRacing for 3 years and been creating content for just over 6 months and I love it! iRacing can be aids but I have had so many great races and a made some great friends! Starting out in rookies is stressful due to other low skilled drivers.
your storytelling and editing skills are fantastic. Good Stuff. I know that's not an easy thing. you nailed it. Oh, and nice race.
Fanatestic
Nice vid. I do have one advice though, during the race, it's best to have the "black box" in bottom right corner show "Relative" page, that way you have best understanding of where you are on track in relation to faster/slower cars. Especially if you decide to go Oval, which you should do, it's great fun.
You've grown a lot since I first started watching you! Your editing is amazing, congrats!
4:07 Every Season is just a new set of tracks per series. If your above 3.0 SR you get automatically upgraded to the next class at the end of the current season, no matter when you started during that season aslong as your above 3.0 SR. Also you can fasttrack it by getting above 4.0 SR and you can get up to the next class mid Season. I started Oval Racing in April and went from Rookies to A class in under 2 weeks
fast track the sr until you get in a tussle with some goon at texas and he doors you and body slams your truck ... then at the end of the race you get -1.5 sr ..... you're just like = O
And fast track is why the quality of racing in officials is the worst its ever been.
Everything about this video is absolutely on point, great work mate! Particularly the purchase anxiety 😅 I related that so much. Was in the same position a couple of years ago but decided to invest and I can safely say that I _still_ don't know whether it was a good idea or not. I've had some amazing iRacing experiences including an epic comeback drive at the Bathurst 12HR last year and some super competitive league racing too...but on the other hand I've also been on the receiving end of some absolutely idiotic driving and abuse on comms.
Wherever your iRacing takes you, don't let the idiots dampen your experience and don't take the occasional hostility to heart 👍but if your driving style is anything like your video editing style then I think you'll be absolutely fine 😉 looking forward to seeing more of your videos on my feed now that I'm subbed!
Welcome! Glad to have you in the community, shall see you on the track
Love your videos. With the summer sale iRacing is holding, I thought it was the cheapest it was going to get. So I clicked on your referral link and joined the cult of iRacing. Thanks for the fun videos.
Looking forward to more iracing content! MX5 is great because it's a great rookie car, but is also used in higher level series for some super fun racing.
Thanks Ken from Hawaii. More iRacing vids coming soon :)
Don't worry OC. Your subscribers are very loyal and i personally promise to watch every single iRacing video you make
Shoutout to you 🤝
You came up into my recommended as I am simracer too. This video was hella entertaining!! And you are not the only one struggeling with iRacing in the beginning :D I went back to ACC as I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars for playing a game.. :D
OC, great video!! I did everything possible and tried out every sim I could to not do iRacing. I wasn’t ready to commit the money but being picky and choosy on what races I run based on if I like the track or car, I’m managed to keep it doable. Ultimately, I found the quality of content and structure was unmatched in sim racing and I got fully on board. Will always watch your content, you’re one of my favorite creators but excited to see how you progress
Thank you!! Lots more coming soon :)
Great video. I-racing is tempting but oh boy the cost. I keep telling myself that I don't race that much so spending 10 Euro every month is not worth it (and I'm not even talking about cars/tracks)... but it is like looking at a candystore knowing the candy is bad for the teeth. And who cares about teeth when the candy is calling :-).
😂
If you buy the 1 year or 2 year subscription it’s much cheaper. New members get 40% off on top of that as well.
I laughed so hard😂 great vid as always👍
I cried so hard
@@OCRacing i understand🥲
I would absolutely love to watch more of your iracing journey from the very beginning
That was absolutely excellent 👍
I'm very impressed that you managed 5th from last on a track you didn't know.
I'm constantly at the back, I seem to get passed by everything, even on the straights when my car is absolutely flat out someone will casually waft by...
No idea how to fix that but welcome to iracing, new subscriber here
Since I watch every single video of yours, I'll let it be known, that I'll watch all your iRacing content too.
Appreciate you, tommy 🙏
It's funny how people who spend multiple thousands of dollars on sim racing equipment will baulk at the pricing of iRacing.
Great video. I'm just starting a very similar journey and making a tons of mistakes along the way. It's frustrating but fun..
Thanks for sharing..
I just ordered a Simagic Alpha Mini and GT-D wheel last night. It came with a 3 month iRacing trial for like, $1. Keen to try my first foray into sim racing soon! Great video ;)
I tried iracing free 3 months, after realizing I would also have to pay for tracks,cars and there's a bunch of them while paying the subscription I stopped and continued on ACC. I didn't find iracing to be that "epic" to be worth all the extra extra extra money I would have to spend
If you guys think iRacing is expensive try a real life hobby, like golf, bowling, gambling, any sport, actually owning or racing a car, restaurants, theaters. If you can’t or won’t pay about 60$ / year for a subscription for the best racing game, find a different hobby. I want to see anyone load up their chosen game at a random time of day and find a multiplayer race with multiple splits. I can turn on any of the others Acc, ams2, rf2, raceroom, and may find one lobby that has more than 10 people. I own and like them all, but if I want to race people at my convenience and not be handcuffed to some league schedule iRacing is the only one. Oh and their AI and customizable race seasons is better than any of the others. If sim racing isn’t valuable enough for you to pay move on, we don’t want ya.
Not everyone is rich idiot
You could race any of those rookie series. The red download icon just means you need to update the game with the content (click the series and click update). Only those showing a yellow shopping cart icon require purchases.
this was actually one of you best! ;) recent iRacer here (3 months) after trying to avoid it for 3 years.. I have to say, it´s all I care about now! :P currently doing the formula iR04 (one of the best for begginers), hope to see you on track soon!
See ya there! Thanks :)
my man is about to need to sell the rest of his gear to afford iracing
😭😭
My wallet still hurt pending 70$ to play iRacing on my 2000$+ Fanatec DD2 mounted on my 1000$ aluminum rig sitting in my 750$ racing seat having trouble pressing the buttons on my 300$ button box...
Thanks for the heads up also looking to get into iracing now i know what to look for lol. How to get of the line first and formost lmao awesome video glad i found you
CZcams sure knows its audience, good video and editing. Hope to see more now that I subbed and hit that bell. Good luck on track, most of all have fun.
I already left iracing after pay them 5-600 usd. Got bored i can not play offline. Its ridiculous and a shame
Oh jeez. I’ll see how it goes for me though I’ll definitely be wary of my spending
Iracing is super expensive tho
I’ve been learning that
Hey OC, I'm all here for your Iracing content. Loved that you studied the cinematics instead of that track because we wouldn't have that beautiful shot of your car just staying still at the start line. XDDD
Great video! Excellent narration and editing! Subscribed!
Dude you have a youtube channel dedicated to sim racing and fantech gear and your worried about spending $70 on one of the top racing games ever?
A 2008 game
it hurts watching people buy iracing
You mean, “investing in iRacing” 😉
@@OCRacing, "investing" implies that you plan to have more when you pull out than when you started. In iRacing's case, you are left with absolutely nothing. 😂
i wrote a whole damn book to reply to this but I deleted it
Loved this vid man keep it up!
I just got into iRacing on the oval and dirt oval. Learning road course stuff too. Slow process but I’m excited to learn!
iracing does not seem worth it at all
I’m still trying to figure that out 😂
@@OCRacing i mean paying so much money just to drive, brah
Cool video! I’m excited to follow your progress
LOVED this vid, especially the intro/start
When I first started iRacing I also learned about the tip of just increasing your safety rating and I would just start from the pits. I usually got top 3 even doing that. I quit racing on iRacing for months and when I came back, I had a similar thing with needing to start my car. Except for some reason the button wasn't mapped anymore so I was struggling hard that race.
i have never heard of your channel before and i wasnt into sim racing but now i want to see more!
Love the intro, new sub (even though this is a year later) looking forward to your journey
love the editing, I am hyped for some iracing videos
Good to know! More coming soon, thanks!
Yo can u do a full setup tour as off now, cuz that description looks really interesting and I love to see it all in work.
Looking forward to more, felt very real and was entertaining
amazing video. I've been thinking about getting iracing myself so this video really helped!
Glad to hear. Cheers :)
Great video loved the editing!
Great vid! As an iracing addict I would recommend Trading paints to get car liveries and Racelabs for various overlays. Hope to see you on track soon.
Damn I love your style of videos, this is the first one I've watched. You can definitely count me as a subscriber now
Glad to hear! Welcome aboard :)
Welcome to the family! Hope you start doing oval racing soon.
This is brilliant content, love the start button drama!
I don't understand how you don't have at least 100k subs you've helped me alot with buying what I need
you really encapsulated my online shopping experiences
This video is exactly why CZcams is a trillion times better than cable TV. Funny, useful and exactly what I want to see. Subscribed.
Came across your channel when I searched for iRacing and the G923 racing wheel. I’m very interested in getting into racing sims, just have to find the time. Would be nice if you did a series on beginning iRacing. I’ll definitely keep an eye on your channel. Consider me subscribed.
Dave is awesome! great referral :)
Great video, I laughed all through as I can see myself doing the exact same thing 😄
Lololol this was awesome! Welcome to the rabbit hole 🤘🤘
So excited to watch these new iRacing videos!!!
Never seen your channel before, but this was quite entertaining lol
First time seeing your content and laughed a few times. I dropped iRacing a couple years ago because I'm too poor and cheap for it, but I won't hate on you for it after that solid content. Cheers.
Good luck in your iracing career, great rig im still rocking the g920 at the moment hoping to upgrade to moza r9 in the near future(cash flow depending) I’m looking forward to race 2! Quick tip for you next race turn the car on 😂
Thanks for the tip, Chris…….. 😂
Really enjoyed this video! had me in stitches!!! Godspeed
Thanks!
funny video. makes me wanna try iracing too! subscribed as i just discovered this channel
i Love the way you have done this video. Great quality video,
The best thing you can do, is focus strictly on your irating. You'll end up getting in cleaner and cleaner splits the higher up you get your irating. The safety rating will follow you to get you up to the next license
I love it when im looking for the specific music used in video and there is just the site the music was taken from
Lmao
I'm actually really excited for watching you go through this
Excited or nervous? 😂
@@OCRacing let's just say..... Both 😈
I have no idea why I liked this video... but I did. Very good. I look forward to your iracing journey!
Keep it up and good luck.
Cameron Frye🤓, cool rig dude!
Im leaving a like just for that intro, good luck with Iracing Practice is key . im still yet to make the jump to Iracing myself
Good luck out there
Watching from Costa Rica! You got me thinking now about jumping into iRacing.!
¡Pura vida Mae!
Love the presentation on this.
what a Start Lol good luck with IRacing mate!
Thank you! I'll be practicing 🤣
welcome to iracing, may u enjoy everything it has to offer!
Definitely going to be watching this series iracing is something I've thought about but haven't pulled the trigger due to the costs associated and have stuck to acc and LFM
Tbh all the money U need to spend on it doesnt make it worth it, and everyone says the ffb feel is ass compared to other sim racing games
Glad to have you coming along!
one night drinking and clubbing will set you back more than your yearly subscription and a couple of tracks/cars...
one night at the brothel per year will set you back more than Iracing per year...
I was in the same boat , not pulling the trigger and hesitant .. yet when i thought about it. I usually buy one or two games every few months - either on steam or ps store- the price of that game will cover my yearly subcription... the price of another game will cover a few tracks and the price of a 3rd game (in one year ) will cover my cars...
its a no brainer for 24/7 racing lobbies, with proper rules and 'mostly' proper racers.
Long time iracing member here and I loved that video. Very well done. iracing can be both brilliant and infuriating.
Bro, I lost it at the start of the race. You gained a sub for that one. Hilarious.
Welcome to iRacing and subscribed. Hope to see you out on the track.
Likewise, cheers!
Thinking of taking the leap and getting iRacing. Used to race a long time ago.
Love this keep up the awesome videos
Great video thank you for the info
I’m Trying to decide on which game to buy
Iracing looks awesome. however everyone complains about the cost.
I’m a newbie to the sim world seems like this is a rabbit hole of money lol.
