“Not an expert on the… ground” - love it

[@romanyoutube1824]

Verry nice overview! Thank You!

[@benthecaptain7419]

Nice Tips! I'm loving the rain.

[@fraja22]

THANK YOU FOR THE TIPS 🥰

[@rpcorp]

What’s the best way to change to wet tires in dry to wet conditions during a race? How do you have it mapped to avoid using a mouse?

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

If Max does comment the sim racing part of the internet will melt ha ha. As a sub 2K grass roots IRL driver, can confirm this feels like real life and I'm amazed by the job the team at iRacing have done.

[@PazLeBon]

grass roots is noob?

[@zombittack]

I need help with damp tracks. This week at Le Mans GT3 i was struggling hard in damp session. A video like this would be much appreciated. Thanks for the content! 🙏

[@MsFrankGS]

Consigli utilissimi. Brava e bella. Complimenti !

[@darklightning2k]

This is actually more informative than Morads vid on racing in the rain! Thank you!

[@Woonwerkverkeer]

Is it possible to start a race with wet tires? Or do you always have to pit in order to equip wet tires?

[@shawqialattar1794]

Which GT3 car is best for rain in your opinion?

[@SpatialDragon]

I raced against your a.i. twice yesterday. I am opening a second account, going thru the grind again. GT7. We have rain, the worst thing is the lack of spray hitting your windshield. Once GT7 has it maybe iRenting will get it. You are my favorite host on the show. Good job young lady.

[@chogpamp123]

Rather rent an actual sim that buy a simcade

[@duckeydude67]

@@chogpamp123 bro you give all of us a bad name with your elitism

[@chogpamp123]

@duckeydude67 elitism? I never said that you aren't allowed to play gt7 or that it is a bad game. But iRacing is a real sim, where gt7 is a simcade. Simple as that.

[@Brunnen_Gee]

I got lucky, my natural style of driving just happens to be perfect for the rain. I went from not really being competitive because I'm so timid, to suddenly winning races or finishing high up fairly often.

[@PazLeBon]

tortoise and the hare :)

[@glennfirth]

All awesome tips. One thing I think iRacing set the rain to extreme for week 13 and I don't think the regular season will be so extreme.

[@Peregrine1984]

Emree saving the best tip for last!

[@georgelesko15]

Thanks for the very helpful tips I just got back into road racing the last couple weeks and now they throw the rain at me. Lol If you or know anyone that gives lessons please let me know. Thanks appreciate any help I can get or receive.

[@CarlWicker]

Me driving in the wet isn't a problem, it's the others that hit me

[@OverTake_gg]

I know that feeling! - Rene

[@PazLeBon]

ffs she practically said that in the description

[@CarlWicker]

@@PazLeBon chill dude, no need for the ffs bs.

@@CarlWicker saying for fooks sake really has no correlation with being chlled or not, thats a you thing not a me thing :)

[@JessPlaysGames547]

I went from a B class to a D class in one day yesterday, in sports car. And that was in the dry. :(

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

Ouch!

[@OverTake_gg]

Those drops are so harsh. Happened to me during Daytona Oval week :( - Rene

[@Daz555Daz]

Wow. How many races?

[@JessPlaysGames547]

@@Daz555Daz it was every 30 mins, i was trying to get my SR back up but it just kept going down. Probably did at least 20 races

[@PazLeBon]

u only drop or rise every 3 months

[@onetripwonders]

This is the best thing to happen in sim racing this year

[@darklightning2k]

I watched noobs (or smurfs) pull 5 seconds ahead of me per lap in the GR86. I don't want rain anymore. 😢

[@ronan0maly]

I'm confused when you say you think there are "too many puddles." What are you basing this opinion on? I mean, preumably iRacing has a bunch of smart people that did physics and math (and just like, basic measuring) to assess how deep the relative portions of the tracks were on their laser scans -- and then just had the water fill in those gaps accordingly. Where would you be getting this special knowledge from about true puddle depth and quantity per track and why would it contradict the laser scans?

[@grahamhill4113]

Just an example; At the moment there are puddles on the inside of almost every corner. Doesn't matter if it's flat, uphill or downhill. They just need to tidy this up

[@PazLeBon]

theres a river running the entire edge of most tracks, kinda naff

[@vitruviuszhang5057]

@@grahamhill4113 Not every corners, for example check Sebring T15, that corner doesn’t have any puddles at the inside because of camber

[@ronan0maly]

@@grahamhill4113 Can you give me an example or two that you think are the worst?

[@grahamhill4113]

@@ronan0maly there are puddles on several of the uphill corners at Nordshleife, Spa and a couple at Suzuka too. Keep in mind that the gradient of these corners is often a lot greater than we perceive in 2D too. It just needs a clean up, that's all.

[@txrx6]

It's just a rumor that Max is a rainmaster, at least he's really bad in the wet weather of real life racing.

[@trashgamer3318]

I mean is he

[@SackyX]

I am in 😍 with her. She races and she pretty what's not to ❤!

[@cliffordgwekwe9853]

I'm an ACC guy ,but still enjoy your videos. And you're looking great without makeup today. I'd like to see you having some short races on this channel too that would be great I think

[@FurryestX]

Bruh does someone really play Iracing?

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

10,000+ people 24/7

[@jordankelly4684]

The fact that rain wasn't even a part of what so many call the greatest sim racer is completely pathetic, the fact Iracing fans are treating rain being added 16 years after release as a good thing, is even more pathetic.

[@meecob]

Not sure about "best ever" Emily. Pcars2, Ams2,ACC and AC weather is pretty good already.

[@marijn17s]

It is best ever. It is the only sim to simulate a dynamic dry line and in basically all those games you named the spray is not realistic, not to mention that AC doesn't even have native rain but it needs a third party mod for that

[@meecob]

@@marijn17s everyone has the third party mod because the modding community is quite unique. Free too

[@mindofmyown333]

The madness weather system in AMS2 and PCars is still the most diverse weather system that’s ever existed but I do think iRacing does rain better.

[@mikecroshaw5754]

@@marijn17sactually AMS2 does do that. But I’m sure you will just dismiss it anyway as it’s not iRacing.

[@marijn17s]

@@mikecroshaw5754 I’m not a blind iracing fan. I actually like and drive plenty of other sims. I just prefer iracing for serious competition / special events (endurance).

overtake is a channel where multiple creaters make the videos

[@vt6020]

She is Emily Jones. She mostly streams on her Twitch channel, these days.

[@OverTake_gg]

as already answered, we are a team :) On our channel you will find videos with Michel, Emily (as seen in this video) and myself (Rene). Sometimes also guests and friends, to make sure that we have people with knowledge about the different topics. Hope that info makes it clearer!
