EXACTLY How To Master Braking in GT3 Cars with

[@LaurenceDusoswa]

What a pleasure this was ❤️ a great experience for anyone looking for lap time. Honestly I didn’t think I was going to find it. Not in an egotistical way, but in a “skill issue” way. And to find this time and consistency afterwards really made me think. This is an aspect of sim racing that many ignore.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Was a pleasure from my side too Laurence. Thanks for putting in the effort and giving me your time. ✊ ~ Dave

[@reneenmoniqueagenda5271]

I am 55 years old and I started 5 months ago, and I love the GT3 in Iracing and ACC. I am not the best driver but coach Dave and the Delta App helps me a lot. Good work guys🤙🏻🙏🏻

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Glad you’re finding value so far Rene! ~ Dave

[@reneenmoniqueagenda5271]

@ just got the black friday deal🤙🏻🙏🏻

[@Frankietomatoes6189]

55yrs old here as well, been racing a little month 5 months and Coach Dave has helped greatly. Best 1yr subscription i have purchased.

[@benjaminduncan4286]

44 year old here, and love sim racing, trail braking is definitely tricky to master. I ended up softening my simagic p2000 brake pedal. Helped alot.. thanks for the video mate..very informative. Keep it up..

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Hey Ben, nothing wrong with running a soft brake pedal in the sim. I prefer it too. ~ Dave

[@benjaminduncan4286]

Thanks Dave, yeah I just find it easier to bleed off the brake, with it harder i found i was coming off and back on through the brake trail. Keep up the great content. Everything always helps in some way. 🏆

[@sonyx5332]

Would you recommend the P2000 over the P1000?

[@benjaminduncan4286]

@sonyx5332 i would say yes. But that's my opinion.

[@johntisbury]

Great to see this detailed breakdown of technique and how Laurence had to work on the braking and putting the power down on exit. Great video and data.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thank you John, really glad you found some value in the video ~ Dave

[@Nuvolari360]

Hi Dave, i wanted to leave a big thank you. Only watching your video made me faster on spa in LMU from 2.20.8 consistent into 2.19's in just 2 laps onwards. I was always struggling on Spa, dependless of the game. But this opened my mind for GT3 cars. Also now I'm even more able to work with the Delta app. The 100% throttle feature is awesome. Thanks!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Awesome! Thanks so much for giving Delta a try. I’m glad you unlocked some lap time at Spa as well 👏 ~ Dave

[@joshuaowens6482]

This is the first video watching coach Dave. This man seems to be a very genuine person. I’ll be getting the coaching soon!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thank you for the kind words Joshua, wish you the best for the rest of the week!

[@osg_oldschoolgamerz]

Awesome to see the colab! We are thankful to have you gents in this awesome sport of sim racing! Great work!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Our pleasure!

[@bazmanblack]

great video really informative been using your products for years and the new delta is great. I'd love to be able to compare my own optimum lap with my current quickest to see where i lose the time if thats possible.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Great idea to compare optimum sectors to your current quickest. Will speak about that with my team ✊ ~ Dave

[@bazmanblack]

@CoachDaveAcademy awesome that's great customer engagement right there.

[@IMcIFadden]

I second that bazman, that would be great if it's possible

[@doug_vickers]

Excellent video. I started sim racing just before my 64th birthday in 2020 and here I am at 68 still sim racing and using Coach Dave Delta software to help me improve. Most of my racing has been in league races in the Ferrari 488 and then the 296 and agree that you need to be smooth to drive it well. I meet Laurence in 2023 at the Sim Expo but unfortunately couldn't make it in 2024. I'm hopng to have a few more years of racing still to come.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Good stuff Doug! Glad you enjoyed the video, good luck with your sim racing ~ Dave

[@teaks68]

What a great video! I can't wait to try some of the tips that are provided.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thanks for watching, hope you find some lap time after applying some of the learnings from the video :)

[@charlesgutscher1923]

Great video. I come from a motorcycle track hustory and its crazy how ot sll translates. Threshold raking and bleeding the trail nraing sll the way to the apex and theiugh until youre sttrightining up is INCREDIBLY vital on high power bikes. The chassis hates neutral state and needs the weight on the front snd consistent brakes to keep the nike stable. Cars are the same! Its less dramatic in a car because uts much more grip and youre body isnt hanging to the ground. But seeing this reslly belps because yeb technique translates well

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Glad you found it useful Charles. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience and crossover from bike to car. ~ Dave

[@keeef23]

Great video! Looks like his in game wheel rotation was different to his actual wheel rotation can see it at 11:43. Would this negatively affect the driving?

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

I personally prefer 1:1. I need to ask Laurence if this was a mistake in his calibration as I didn’t see his real life wheel when we were recording. I have mistakenly set my wheel to a similar ratio in the past and only recognised it when I was struggling to stay on track in the F3 😂

[@keeef23]

@ yeah I would imagine it would make things super sensitive possibly why he was losing traction on exit thinking the wheel was straighter than it actually was 🤷‍♂️

[@johnhicks4359]

Love how you explained how the process should go in the next laps chapter.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thanks for watching John 🙏🙏 ~ Dave

[@Broomy88]

Loved this!!!! Use coach Dave for setups but never dived in to the telemetry, inspired me to use this and to improve…..please more collaborations like this 👌

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Epic!

[@JeffAudette]

Awesome video and will really help me!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Glad to hear it Jeff, keep pushing!

[@billyweb8846]

Brilliant coaching, thankyou.

[@nicholasmarshall3191]

Superb! I have done some live coaching, and usually it is overwhelming, as I am trying to focus on too many things to change, in too short of a time. I stopped live coaching because it was helpful on one hand, but very frustrating on the other.

[@RevLimitBryan]

watched this, did a fixed setup GT3 race at the Ring just now. It helped :)

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Meggggga Bryan!

[@SergejGrabun]

Nice video, both nice chaps. I would like to know if Dave have any comments/notice on topic of too much steering angle in some turns performed by Laurence or were all of them done right?

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

His steering angle wasn’t a problem, it was almost all solved with his braking technique. It almost always starts with corner entry. If you fix your entry then you’ve solved 90% of your problems. ~ Dave

[@autobahnf1]

Excellent session 👏🏼

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

More to come!

[@danielnewmanracing]

Loved this Laurence (and Dave!) 🤙🏻

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Cheers Dan!

[@phillupson8561]

Great video, not sure LD needs to be any faster though 🤣

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

The guy is a weapon. Initially I thought “oh no this will be difficult!” 😂

[@louisserfontein7973]

That's how a Potato does it! Well done LD and such a pleasure watching Dave explain the Data. Really enjoyed watching this!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thanks for watching 🙏 ~ Dave

[@mdahlis]

Great video, thanks.

You're welcome!

[@TheMoyneardman]

Really.... You HAD to go make him faster didn't you 🙄😂😂😂 great vid!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

I’m in trouble now 😂

[@TheMoyneardman]

He was already hard enough to catch in the Potato Nation League 😂😂

[@TheAshmaker]

Any plans to offer Delta Support to Automobilista 2 now that 1.6 update is out?

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

We will definitely look into it

[@DrKage-vz5jt]

Fantastic video

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Thanks Doc 🙏 ~ Dave

[@DannyGiusa]

Great analysis, I would add to that by the looks of Laurence brake trace, he has too low brake resistance -> the pedal is too soft. When I coach my team mates, this up and down shapes before trailing off are a result of a too soft pedal that doesn't give enough resistance to lift off the brake reliable. If the brake of the coach is not fixed by 70% max, lots of respect payed for that trail!

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Really good point Danny. I’m generally a fan of a softer brake pedal so it never crossed my mind to consider that as advice to smooth out his braking. I need to give it a dry myself as well actually. Coach Danny is doing the next video. ~ Dave

[@stefanroseEP3]

Ain't nobody dream of a brake shape like what my guys was like to begin with 😅

[@mustdobetter6748]

When should you be shifting in the 296?

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Usually, first red light. If you wait for all lights to go red, it’s too late. ~ Dave

[@one_bigly]

@@CoachDaveAcademy wow, that early?! thanks! 🐐

[@nicholasmarshall3191]

Can the data be viewed on a pc or tablet other than the pc the sim racing is driven on?

[@harryphillipsdev]

Yes it can! You can open up any of your sessions in a browser after you've driven

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

You can do so here: delta.coachdaveacademy.com/ 🤟

[@DadandDaughterAccount]

Theres like a 45 degree difference between hardware and sim on the steering angle. You can see it at 3:07 . I guess if he’s used to it 🤷🏻‍♂️.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

Good spot! I wouldn’t have seen that as I didn’t have that camera angle during our call. Still, I’ll ask LD why he sets it like that. I tried that for a while but didn’t like it so much, was too easy for me to go past the slip angle. I’ve no doubt LD has his reasons though. ~ Dave

​@@CoachDaveAcademy🤔🤔🤔

[@bobdonovan34]

he's not using linear steering. Is that common? Seems like an advantage requiring less effort but I never stuck with it for the sake of realism. Maybe I'm missing something? Hmm.

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

I missed that part, where did you see that he wasn’t using linear steering?

[@bobdonovan34]

@@CoachDaveAcademy 11:05 on the inset window. Just curious because I used to do that on tracks with hairpins and sharp turns, but was afraid I was screwing myself up in the long run.

[@DadandDaughterAccount]

@@CoachDaveAcademy@3:07 you can see how far off his wheel base is from the sim.

[@DadandDaughterAccount]

Maybe he doesn’t even know he’s doing it. Like his base is set for 1080+ and iRacing is set at 900.

[@averagedriver81]

looks like his wheel is not calibrated correctly… it’s like a 2:1 or more ratio

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

100% Other commenters have spotted that too!

[@averagedriver81]

@ should definitely get that fixed if there’s a part 2! It’s very important for steering in gt3s

[@chrisnorrell7489]

Gt3s in iracing are fundamentally wrong. Most irl gt3 drivers are super aggresive with the controls. They are made to be easy to drive irl. Smooth has very little to do with it. Hence the TC and ABS. Never got along with iracing physics

[@CoachDaveAcademy]

It is true that in iRacing you have to "under drive" the cars compared to real life. But there are still many elements which are accurate. Nevertheless, for GT3's I find the best experience still to be ACC (however v1.9 could do with some updates to the suspension).
