Going 3 wide like a boss at 8:25 nice. When I raced here times were pretty close to the 57-59 marks but it was before the repave and we did not have the chicane on turn 4, just the steep uphill into the hard downhill right.
I will remember you! You have a life long fan. When you get to the big racing series I will be cheering you on as I am now. You have great skills man, keep it up!
Always love to watch you drive, you nake it look so easy, I am trying to drive the same in iRacing now with the Skip Barber car. Always feels like I'm driving on ice!!
WHEW! Scott, I was hungry as hell but couldn't move from the pc watching your amazing run. You ARE DA MAN!! Your set up was clearly better than the backmarkers, they got squirrely when you pressured them, then the front runners, your just drove faster than them, you outbraked every one, I saw you downshift sooner than normal after the main straight and the engine noise startled the guy you were passing. We do that also in motocross. Just a brilliant drive man, I hope one day to race cars.
Nice driving Scott Hargrove! I think lap 12 was my favorite. @Spartan168 - You are absolutely right. All it takes is the right line. Scott had it right, most of the others didnt.
Great job. What are the two gizmos on the "dash" that are cabled together? Is that where the telemetry is coming from or is it from a smarty cam? Lime Rock is the one Skippy track I have left to do. Thanks for the letting me go to school with your video.
that long straight with the finish line, is it downhill in real life? it appears to be in this video or is it just the camera? damn i wish there's a local track nearby... i'd sign up even for a go cart...
Finally. FINALLY. A LRP video of someone that actually knows how to drive and not some skill less megalomaniac with too much disposable income on their hands. Nice ride. Takes me back.
I have been racing in FF and CF for over 30 years, but sadly have never driven a winged car. A 2 liter is my goal, but I am not getting any younger. How many years ago was this race Scott?
Skip Barber is, really, a training series. There are multiple races during the weekend events. That being said, standing starts aren't the best way to conserve cars and keep costs down. Rolling starts are safer too.
not to criticize your driving, because there is no doubt that you have skill, but it just seems like if you take the right racing line through the turns you'll catch everyone in front of you, doesnt seem like there is much competition
I agree regarding ice/racing, but I don't play console "sims". rf2 has G27 issues and they're not being addressed, so it's a POS that I don't think ISI or the modders can fix.
The physics is terrible in rf2, what killed it for me was racing the F1 the car had literally no downforce. Once you got fast enough you start losing control of the car, Just like the skippy.
Great driving! Looks like an amazing experience
8:20- damn that was nice
Konstantin Otrembsky Yeah... 3 wide no problems. That was some awesome driving.
0:34 Off Track (x1)
lolol
XD
Awesome, you tried iRacing? Lol

Nice racing. I took the Skip Barber course here in California. Learned how to race correctly. Takes lots of practice to get it right.

I can't believe it's been 7+ years. Wow. Fantastic video.
Simply amazing drive through the field.
Always love to watch you drive, you nake it look so easy, I am trying to drive the same in iRacing now with the Skip Barber car. Always feels like I'm driving on ice!!
Thanks for sharing!
Pass on the outside at @ 1:30 was impressive, as was 8:20. Good carry through chicane and final turn. Enjoyed it, thanks for posting!
impressive driving, very consistent and fast/smooth; well done
Scott YOU ROCK!! I watched the whole race. I hope to take the 3 day class in 2015. I took the AMG Academy last year and had a blast.
Smooth, fast driving. I love it.
Nice line through the chicane. Loved that two for pass on the straight near the end.

Beautyful driving Mate!🚗🚀
Love the double-jump at 8:21. Nice driving.
amazing driving ! Looks so much fun =)
@scotthargroveracing YOU ARE A BOSS.
This is heikki? asd
Los hermanos F1 voladores ni Jeidi arriesga tanto en iRacing
Jajajaja vine a los comentarios a ver si había algo referido a Heikki
Good driving - Well done!
great race
3 wide into turn 1 takes guts. great job man!
V7 tyres are so damn real... )
skippys are tight
rFactor2 brought me here. Thanks to it I never would have seen this vid :)
Great drive !
Nice Drive. Very Smooth
great overtaking!
That was some impressive driving, especially off the last turn (number 7?) you carried so much mo down the straight.
Nice driving Scott Hargrove! I think lap 12 was my favorite.
@Spartan168 - You are absolutely right. All it takes is the right line. Scott had it right, most of the others didnt.
Nice Driving!
I liked the let off to give space for the run down the strait...nice!
that was amazing
Very good race
superb driving
Nice Race !
Nice driving
Nice driving mate. Chances are, I built that chassis. Glad we served you well.
how neat.
Nice racing, you gained quite a bit of speed in the last corner at every lap
Great job. What are the two gizmos on the "dash" that are cabled together? Is that where the telemetry is coming from or is it from a smarty cam? Lime Rock is the one Skippy track I have left to do. Thanks for the letting me go to school with your video.
My man just passing people around the outside like it's a video game.
Oh sorry should always read the description before commenting :) nice driving!
that long straight with the finish line, is it downhill in real life?
it appears to be in this video or is it just the camera? damn i wish there's a local track nearby... i'd sign up even for a go cart...
no, its flat, but a sweeping downhill corner leads to the start star8
damn consecutively under a minute
Finally. FINALLY. A LRP video of someone that actually knows how to drive and not some skill less megalomaniac with too much disposable income on their hands. Nice ride. Takes me back.
8:15 - 8:25.... brilliant driving :)
I've driven these cars. Do you short shift to 5th before turn in on the downhill or carry fourth through the turn and upshift at track out?
0:34 1x
Screaming in the last corner on the last lap 110 plus that is quick.
Awesome.. I came here thinking it was images from a game.
how do i get started!?
Good work- I was flagging that race.
how do you get the chance to drive one of these?
WOW, awesome overtake thru the chicane, but that's real life for you, too bad rf2's skippy is such a mess.
RIP Skip Barber 😢
Wow iRacing has some sick graphics now.
I have been racing in FF and CF for over 30 years, but sadly have never driven a winged car. A 2 liter is my goal, but I am not getting any younger. How many years ago was this race Scott?
If I didn't know better, I would have thought that was Me driving. ;-) Really good job!
Guessing it didn't end too well then..! Where did you finish?
8:18 wow i thought you were just going to tuck behind the outside car, you made an aggressive move there!
With the latest builds, rf2 is the best sim IMO, that said, AC could easily knock it over.
I lust for AC....
how much would a season in one of these cost?
What your time was?
You were so much faster!
What kind of race cars are these?
The car doesn't auto blip on downshifts, does it?
You just toyed them!
It’s just like the simulations
what kind of cars are these?
skip barber
likely Formula Fords. only 150 hp but weighing 1000 lbs its like an AMG with 600 hp, they are faster than you think.
what is it with yanks and rolling starts
Skip Barber is, really, a training series. There are multiple races during the weekend events. That being said, standing starts aren't the best way to conserve cars and keep costs down. Rolling starts are safer too.
Maybe the fact that they're like 5 billion times safer has something to do with it.
That’s my great uncle
why did you start so back when you had so much better pace than the people in front of you?
no... i good driver just makes it look easy... ;)
Just like in the simulations
not to criticize your driving, because there is no doubt that you have skill, but it just seems like if you take the right racing line through the turns you'll catch everyone in front of you, doesnt seem like there is much competition
Ahora que salgo de rookie en IRacing, voy a pegar más vueltas en Lime que un puto ventilador.

so thats where i was loosing time:)
Seems like he is playing on easy mode.

Slippery car easy to spin off.
you need to turn up antialiasing
This confirms iRacing's quality for me cuz this car's a bitch to drive in the game and it looks like a bitch to drive in this video too
you look like the only one talented on this league :D
Textbook in my opinion.
Far from it
No they are not too easy, need driving lessons for these if not very professional.
rf2=dogshit.
It's so bad, I don't think even the best modders can save it.
how do you get the chance to drive one of these?
That’s my great uncle
