@@ss0op depends on the kind of gloves you wear. But the grips are definitely a weak Point. Second thing is they are glued to the wheel. So basically if the grips are worn off you cant exchange them + simagic wont acknowledge warranty on grip wear. Truly a disgrace for otherwise a great wheel.

My 24s4 season (and the next ones after it) will be dedicated to reach the highest iRating I'm able to. The best way for me to do so, is not to stick to a car or a series, but to a track. The Nordschleife. Gladfully this track is very popular and even when there wasn't the Ring Meister series, most seasons saw the track being raced about 8 times, with some series going to it regularily (every 2-3 seasons), while others have it every time. That's how I got to my current 5k. And to get the most iRating there's no secret, just win the races. And I can't afford to lose because I didn't practice enough. So my personal schedule will consist of waking up 3h before work to practice the car I'll race the next week, while on the evening I'll race the series of the current week. And repeat. I practice the cars by giving myself 2 days to get used to them, or remember how to drive them if I already did in the past, and to fine tune the setup if the series allows to. Then I'll practice every sector one after the other until I feel satisfied with the time to use as a benchmark for qualifying runs next week. All of that doesn't make me practice actual racing, but it's not really an issue, against most of the drivers I'll get out of reach after a couple corners, if not straight from the start. And the couple ones that will keep up or outpace me will have a similar or higher iRating and know how much they would lose if they try anything silly. So always very respectful and enjoying battles.

14:10 I think most of the cars don't have their wheel able to turn over 540, for example the Audi 90 GTO is at about 450. My wheel is set up at 900 as on some games like Assetto Corsa they have cars that can go that far, and every sim out there automatically limit the range of steering by car, so back to my GTO, when I reach the car's limit, my wheel automatically resists turning further. I'd recommend you to get a too large range of steering to be sure that you will be able to always use all of the car's turning. Because even if most of the time you don't need to turn that much, on very slow and tight corners like Wehrseifen you will pretty much turn all the way. As long as the car's wheel turns as much as yours the range doesn't matter as it won't change anything on your inputs.
@s1nenomine8 күн бұрын
11:30 I recommend you to map a button on your wheel to disable the TC. That way when you're facing the wrong way, you get down into 1st, move by a few mph, then after disabling TC, clutch down, throttle floored and wheel turned one side or the other, then release the clutch and when the car starts to spin let go of the throttle. Voilà, a magnificent U-turn.

10:05 it depends on the track usage. When it's low enough there's little to no rubber layed down so racing line is safe enough, and you want to avoid it only on sections where you need all of the tyre's grip. In the esses you're going through you can go for the line as you're barely turning the wheel.

29:15 My answer is that an activity is a game when you can say that you are playing. And to play means to do any activity without being forced to, without any useful end, and you do to divert yourself and get some pleasure out of it. So as soon as you check that box, you are playing a game, which can totally happen in simracing. On any sport you have professional championships, leagues and tournaments, but you can still play soccer, basket ball and table tennis for example.

Good tips! Couple of things I would add : - Be careful of "leaving room" to a faster car, usually you should just drive PREDICTABLY. By that I mean just drive like you usually would and let them make the pass. There has been countless times when a car wants to do the right thing but get rear ended because the passing car wasn't expecting it. - Second pro tip for practicing. You can Spectate a race server that is already started, and from there you can go race and you'll actually be a ghost car, you can see the live drivers but they can't see you and there is no collision. It's a great way to practice and compare your technique.

I have a somewhat similar method. I start my practice when the tracks rollover and then i just look at the series results and figure out where my times "should" be and that gives me an idea on how far off the mark I am for MY iRating.
