ACC | I’ve Never Seen ANYTHING Like This! LFM GT3 @ Silverstone

[@grahamdennis2810]

You deserve every success great racing

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Ahh Graham, thank you again! You really shouldn’t have. Its most appreciated though. Thank you for the support 😃

[@nickstone3606]

well done chris you are on fire at the mo,long may it contiue

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you Nick! Not sure how long it’ll last, but I’m enjoying it while it does!

[@Blownpistonmotorsport]

Awesome job Chris! Making me want to get back in to ACC

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Cheers mate, yeah I know you had a rough time in ACC / LFM a while ago, but the racing has been pretty good lately. Even in the lower splits - this was a bottom split race, but everything seemed pretty clean. Start line gaffes aside!

[@woodcote7617]

... just like buses.. great race there Chris and as always impeccable presentation.. long may this run continue

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

I should have switched to the Lambo sooner! It’s certainly coincided with my best ever run! Cheers Nij

[@EJSimRacing]

great race! Good to see you get the results you deserve

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you mate, appreciate that. Cheers for watching 😃

[@TomAndrewsSimRacing]

what a win!, love it!

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you Tom! Cheers for watching mate

[@daviddavies3637]

Brilliant. We all need a bit of luck from time to time. Been trying out the Mustang this week. Time's gradually come down but you're still quicker than I am around here. You seem to have T1 nailed but that's probably the one I struggle with the most.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

T1 is definitely a lap-spoiler if you get it even slightly wrong. I’m not super consistent at it yet… I’d say in that race, I nailed it spot on around 50-60% of the time, but the other times I either took too much inside kerb or ran too wide on exit (that’s what earned me the track cut warning towards the end). The laps I got it right, my lap times were about 0.5 quicker straight away. Interested to hear what the Mustang is like. I’m in such good form with the Lambo at the moment, I’m scared to try anything else in case I lose the feel for it!

[@daviddavies3637]

@@chrisrogerssimracing In the right hands, the Mustang seems to be one of the best cars in the game. My all-time PB is only 1.59.8 and I'm sure it was only at our last visit here that I started to put things together. Before then, I was in the 2.02-2.04 range. So, it made sense to try out a new car on a track I've never been competitive at. With the 296, I play around a lot with the TC throughout the lap on most tracks. The Mustang has a lot of torque but because of it, it can be very slow off the mark exiting slow corners. A TC of 5 can cause the wheels to spin but a TC of 6 can cause the TC to engage too aggressively. Once it gets going, though, seems to be one of the fastest cars in a straight line. Doesn't corner as well as the 296 and difficult to find free setups at the minute. Found one and thought the guy was trolling because most of the settings were tanked right up or right down. But it works.

[@beardalyankovic]

Ggs Chris! Great race

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Cheers mate! Ever since the Roo was appointed, I’ve been in tremendous form 🤣 it’s clearly inspired me! Haha

[@beardalyankovic]

@chrisrogerssimracing I got a couple of wins when he was in charge of the blues too 🤣

[@bluebird8004]

👏 👏 👏 Congrats Chris ❤🇦🇺

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you! Cheers for watching, and for all the support from Down Under!

[@cloosat]

That disqualification got sent to the shadow realm. That car warp replay was hilarious.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

I know right? I’ve never seen a DQ like it in ACC before 🤣

[@missedl3tha1.16]

Congrats Chris, great win, I'm running about the same pace as you so perhaps I'll see you on the grid this week :) I've had a similar start experience on LFM at Watkins Glenn last year, I was sitting 4th and the top 3 all zoomed off during the rolling start, I was so surprised I nearly went with them. Fortunately I didn't, they all got drive throughs and I got clear air ... still stacked it in the Inner Loop about 5 laps later though 🤣

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Yeah that’s exactly it… I was hovering at the top end of my green box, wondering if I should be going too. You can see why a lot of the others did do… it goes against your instincts to hang back and lose so much ground. But it’s definitely a good one to remember for future races… ALWAYS follow the HUD and not the cars! Cheers mate

[@furzedefur]

That, Chris, was more thrilling and entertaining to watch than real life F1 in Monaco. Great commentary!

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Haha thank you mate! Glad you enjoyed watching 😃

[@stishy75]

It doesn't matter how they come, all that matters is they do. 🎉❤

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Exactly! Wouldn’t have won if I hadn’t put myself in a strong position to. Doubt I’ll get that lucky again for a while, though 🤣 Cheers

[@jasonwood9947]

Well done Chris. Slam dunk win. Paced it really well and that Lambo seems to suit your driving style really well. You know the first wasn’t a one off and you know what it takes to keep the lead. Can’t wait to see you get more wins in the future. Well deserved.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you Jason, yeah switching to the Lambo has made a huge difference. I can’t understand why it’s so unpopular… a lot of the races I enter, I’m the only Lambo on the grid!

[@mr12thletter]

YEEEESSS!!! Get in there Chris! Excellent driving!

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Cheers mate! Wasn’t expecting a repeat success so soon! Was a bit luckier than the first one though 🤣 Thank you

[@jester3265]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyy another win, you're making it look easy...... Some great racing Chris, you certainly deserve to get up on that podium. Congratulations Chris 👏 👏

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you Lee! I felt like I had the pace to get 3rd, but couldn’t believe my luck when I saw what was happening at the start! Doubt I’ll ever be as fortunate as that again! Cheers

[@jester3265]

well hot dyam chris. Great driving and congrats on 2nd win :D

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

I know, who’d have thought it! To be far, this one was FAR luckier than the first one! Don’t think I’m gonna get 4 of the top 5 getting penalised like that again 🤣

Congratulations! I was shouting at my TV haha! Well done Pal! 🏁

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Haha nice one! Thank you mate, cheers for watching and supporting 😃

[@TheNightFluo]

yaaay another video. Always looking forward to new ACC content! I made it out of bumper car league err I mean rookie league. Looking forward to proper races. We might be on somewhat the same elo, maybe we see each other. :-)

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Congrats! I’d definitely advise getting a few ‘play it safe’ races in first, just to give your SR a healthy buffer. When I first left Rookies, I spent the first couple of months yo-yo-ing to and from rookies. I found that getting my SR up to at least 6.00 or ideally 7.00, gives you a bit of a safety net for the odd disaster! Good luck, hope to see you on the grid 😃

[@arunabharay1594]

what a win, get urself some champagne !

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you, yeah was tempted to stand on the Playseat and spray some! 🍾

Brilliant. Well done Chris.

Thank you Rob! Cheers for watching

[@doodlebeanz5634]

Well done Chris! Took advantage of a great situation and kept your cool where others might not. Mate I must say, the way you shoot your videos with the commentary and secondary camera angles, you just don’t want to take your eyes off the screen! Great stuff 👍🏻

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you mate! That’s great to hear… exactly what I’m aiming for with the videos, combining high energy and a fast pace to try and make it as watchable as possible. Cheers!

great race. congrats

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you Tony! Cheers mate 🍺

[@nock-racing]

Congrats Chris, kept your head where others didn't and it paid off 👍🏻

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Cheers, yeah a crazy start! You can understand why all the others followed the leader instead of their HUD. I was hovering at the top end of my green box, worrying about them getting away, but just sensed something wasn’t right so I held back. Definitely one to remember for next time… ALWAYS follow the HUD!

[@melr4208]

I came to watch the race but stayed for the narration. Excellent content, mate.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Nice one! Great to hear the format hooked you in! Thanks for watching 😃

[@TIMMAAYY007]

Congratulations again Chris. Especially good as you're a clean and thoughtful racer.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you, yeah clean racing is very important to me, more so than the winning. But it’s sweet when they both come together like this! Cheers

[@whatelseb-sidesvinyl747]

Well done Chris. Excellent consistency and a nice overtake too! You're growing more confident every episode! 🎉

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you, yeah I’m definitely feeling the confidence grow with every race since switching to the Lambo. It’s really brought me on nicely. Cheers!

@@chrisrogerssimracing LOL, It works in AC also.

[@brummiegaming8008]

Well done Chris 👌 Nice to have a bit of luck going your way too with the DT's and DQ , LFM can be cruel, but these races make it all worthwhile huh 🙌🍻 that DQ at the start was mind boggling, how did he think he was getting away with that 🤷‍♂🤣

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Haha yeah, a comedy of errors at the start! The lad said in chat after the race than it was his first ever pole position, so I reckon it was a combination of nerves and panic 🤣

[@snappedbydan]

I don't think he thought at all 😂

[@TheFlying-Scotsman]

Brillian race, massive congratz your wins are like buses, none for ever and then 2 come at once 😂

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Haha yeah it’s bizarre isn’t it! Cant believe it took me 157 races, then suddenly two in a row. To be fair, this one was WAY luckier than the first 🤣

[@pryere]

That was a great drive to your second win. Well done, I feel proud of you.

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Ahh cheers man, thank you for the support!

[@RainmakerAnton]

Congrats! Also, really great production value in your videos, the picture-in-picture is a great way to provide more context without breaking the flow.

[@TimImasa]

Fantastic race, Chris! Congrats on the W!

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

Thank you! 😃

[@lowfastracing]

Interesting starting procedure, where was the couple of seconds when you need to keep the 70 km/h limit? I never saw anything like that in my 3500+ hours in ACC, of course it happened in an lfm race... :D

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

It was bizarre. I was waiting for the speed limit instruction, and it almost caught me out when it went straight to green. I’m guessing it was because the pole position driver was SO far forward, he crossed the line to signal the start of the race before the 70kmh warnings had even come in 🤣

[@lowfastracing]

@@chrisrogerssimracing I've seen a lot of strange things on the lfm servers, that's the main reason why I don't race there anymore. I would like to know what happened on the monitor of the guy who started from pole, because he certainly didn't want to start the race with a DSQ on purpose... :D

[@chrisrogerssimracing]

@@lowfastracingHe said in chat afterwards that it was his first ever pole position, so I think it was a mixture of nerves and panic! Probably concentrating on where P2 was, rather than his HUD. Won’t be a mistake he makes again 🤣

[@lowfastracing]

@@chrisrogerssimracing :)))))) Hilarious, so until now he had probably always been watching the car's position in front of him during the starting procedure, but now there was no one there... :D
