Hi Dave, Was a honor to race with you in the same split. Car no.5. I have 53 years btw. Keep doing what you doing. All the best from Romania.

[@RCMgb]

Alex Smolyar who won the race is an SMP backed driver who's won races and many podiums in F3! Pretty impressive to be in the same race as him and not too far behind.

[@XBOW83]

Another Pro Race driver who play ACC Some people think ACC was only for noobs and if you want tonbe serious you play Iracing. Fact show its not, thx

[@andreamasiero3329]

@@XBOW83 the level of the higher split on LFM sometime is insane, for an average “driver” like me it’s almost impossible to think at the victory or a podium.

[@RCMgb]

@@XBOW83 IRacing isn't for me. Nicki Thiim seems to also think that. Although no idea if they've fixed the tyre models, I stopped a few years ago.

[@XBOW83]

@@RCMgb i play it 8 years. I Always prefer physics of ACC, especially tyre model, but Iracing have multiplayer advantage But LFM comes... On quali in top Split, chrono of 10-15 first driver was so close, with different cars ! For me, ACC was the best GT SIM

[@daviddanser8011]

Nice race, also credits to the guy in the Nissan. Incredible that he could match the pace in that car.

[@andreamasiero3329]

Seems like you got the hang of it..watch out Dave, once ACC’s driving style start to click, it’s really difficult to come back to iRacing, at least in my experience.

[@MrWatton]

Nice to see a calm, relaxed, chilled, Dave….let the battles commence 😃 Good run there, car seemed to rotate really nice so I’m surprised the guys in front were away. Wish I could do bias changes on the fly, need to try that out. 👍🏻

[@s40tyd5]

Dave, I was in the #14 BMW. Nice to eventually race you! Glad your back enjoying ACC hopefully have a rematch soon 👍😝

[@davecamyt]

Great racing 😁

[@jwatson85]

You always seem to have some of the cleanest visuals - this time is way better than previous race. Whatever ya changed - it worked.

[@bufftheowl]

You were making me nervous cause on the last lap you were getting close to the track limits again and with 3 warnings, but somehow you did it. Well done. I don't think I could do that in my Porsche because the front would be too light with a nearly empty tank.

[@JAILEDforMEMES]

New AUDI EVO is amazing on this track, fast on straight and really stable on corners :) I’m enjoying this car lately moving from BMW and Macca

[@Verndroid]

Nice race. Great entertainment. A few tips for the M4. Rev it way more in 5th. Up to about 270kmh is the sweet spot. You only really need 6th when getting a good slip stream or on mount panorama. :-) TC4 or TC8 seems to be the best for the BMW. Keeps the rears healthier and does not affect acceleration too much. Look forward to more LFM content. This is great.!

[@davecamyt]

Thanks for the tips 😁

[@mfpresident8150]

Rear tires are crying for help lol. Great drive Dave!!!

[@wernergolombick1553]

Dave, give us a detailed video about things you have done to improve ACC, much appreciated

[@Kaylos29]

I qualified 1:42.6 in 3rd split out of 5 today, and was only 5th. The top 15 were within 1 second 1:42.2 to 1:43.2. It's pretty crazy how fast and close even the midpack is in LFM. Those kind of times would near the top with a massive drop off behind in most public lobbies most. Also makes the first few laps crazy, because even with everyone trying to be safe, we are all bunched up and its a recipe for accidents. The field takes forever to spread out.

[@jedijon1228]

Great to see that you are slowly getting the bug for ACC like you my go to was iRacing but slowly being converted to ACC - fast drivers in LFM great for progression of your skills - have a great day off to IR for the 24 Spa.....

[@TheMrdhyde]

I have been at it for nearly 3 years now and still 4 to 5 seconds off top drivers. I do see improvement every few months but going from Nascar for with controller for about 20 yrs to road racing GT cars with wheel and pedals is very different.

[@xyz-uz6me]

Keep grinding m8, I was faster with controller only now sort of approaching my controller times. My biggest gripe with the low budget G920 are the pedals holding me back, weakest item of the lot.

[@distel360]

Look as far ahead as you can on track. I always was off like three four seconds. Looking further ahead improved my laptimes by one or two seconds.

[@doug_vickers]

That's more like it Dave. Your usual chilled self, racing well and enjoying yourself. I think you were just having a bad day when you were Mr.Grumpy. Keep up the good work.

[@Hardcaslte]

As much as I hate the BMW, the V6 is uninspiring how it sounds, it's really like the most balanced front engine car in the field. It feels like a mid engine car how well it handles. I want to hate on it, and I almost never use it, but damn do I have to respect it.

Open your rear brake ducts one click, your rears were too warm. Lower rear ride height, brake bias is not your issue there.

hey dave really enjoyed this one. can i see your camera settings for the BMW?

[@pintescheller1]

nice race Dave ! yeah the pace is strong in higher splits ;-) nice batlle !!

[@SwiftCookie]

God I hate the rear view mirror in ACC, it's so blurry and makes me nauseous. Not sure if it's an engine limitation or style choice, either way I wish they'd change it.

[@lucasoeiro1902]

Dave, you should keep accelerating and breaking at the same time during the warm-up lap in acc, it will warm your tires faster and you gonna have a way better start

[@SwiftCookie]

Isn't that super frowned upon? I know it's a big no no in iRacing.

[@daviddanser8011]

@@SwiftCookie why would it be frowned upon? It is a common technique in acc at least.

[@SwiftCookie]

@@daviddanser8011 It's an exploit, irl tyres don't warm up by accelerating and braking at the same time which is why it's frowned upon.

[@FotisNorscan]

you' ve always got it, last videos were just clickbaits but hey, fair game

[@Sam_Saraguy]

Good race, nice driving. Looks a lot better without DLSS.

[@davidyip5557]

Nice driving👌.What car settings do you use dude,I can't set up a car for the life of me

[@dotholo]

The game definitely looks better without DLSS, but the reason it is there is so people who still run 4k, 1440p, triples etc that can't quite get 80+fps, can. DLSS is essentially the equivalent of reducing your resolution in a way that looks better than if you had just lowered resolution in game. If your PC can handle the game at your settings without DLSS, there's really no reason to run it unless you really need to for different scenarios like weather (can cause drops of about 10fps in my experience)

[@MBDragracer]

Good job Dave , enjoyed watching this one .

[@Ermz]

When everyone in the server is using one of two cars. Looks like the BoP is in a good place.

[@tan143danh]

What I like is that you appear to prefer IRacing but still prepared to give ACC a try really great stuff

[@Deniz1923]

Lap record holder says he races with a setup close to default aggressive. But on default agg, b.balance is close to like %58. Yet you race with almost %50. This brake bal. let's you brake whole a lot later and gain time on straight line braking, but is a pain in the ass in the middle sector, where there is lots and lots of combined turning and braking. Any advice, Dave ?

With a BMW behind you, like with Ben, all they do is Dive bomb into corner and punt you out. Around corner and on straight BMW is dead.

HI @Dave Cam I noticed at the end of all races you go through the incidents so my question is how do you skip though the incidents so easy one by one? Or is it done in editing I mean is there a way to watch the race back and skip to the incidents?

[@steam-SMOKEY]

Dave, sorry to go off topic, im currently smashing the bottom of raceroom, purely for the online ranked racing. iracing worth the investment? Is iracing ranked system that much better? Reasons why Im asking you mate is I think you give a unbiased opinion and working on the water board with a family of 6 is tight on the wallet for sim racing. Appreciate any replies bud 🥃

[@butsargeee]

Well I’m not Dave but in my opinion Iracing is only worth it if you can justify the expense with time playing. I used to play but that feeling of paying for 3 things every week (to get the discount) and them usually all being 10-15 bucks each was not doing it for me because I didn’t have the time I wanted to justify the price,plus the sub. But racing wise I’ve never played a game that made me feel like I was on the track the way Iracing does. And the online is as good as it gets besides joining a league. Best bet is to buy a month which you can usually find a cheap deal for being your first time and trying out the free rookie series which are pretty fun for a little while.

[@butsargeee]

And if you do decide to play don’t buy it through steam*

[@kunze67]

Yes, that's also my criticism of raceroom, the public servers are rarely visited. Most probably drive the leagues, etc. that are offered in the forums. As far as servers go, iRacing is better, but I've never spent so much money on any game in my life. iRacing is super expensive, you have to think about it very carefully.

[@steam-SMOKEY]

@@kunze67 I will consider it 100% appreciate the reply 👍

@@butsargeee I think i will try it for the month, buy one of my favourite tracks / car and go from there. Any reason why not go through steam?
