HYPER-REALISTIC SIM RACING - Hungaroring GT3 Battles!

[@gingersnaps7186]

Haha damn. This has to be the most realistic rig out there. I've been following your channel for about 2 years now but for some reason this video just stood out. Sim racing is so fkn fun

[@nemesismcc]

Hi Will, I have been watching this series from the very first race, and every one has been a great video, it is also a master class in showing others that you do not have to come first to head up a series, good clean racing and scoring points is what matters. I have been a viewer of your channel for around 3 years and watched 99% of your content and am never disappointed, one can only dream of owning a rig such as yours, but I do my best with what I have ( basic computer, 32" screen and Thrustmaster TMX wheel and pedal set) my newest upgrade will be the 1050Ti which will I hope improve my enjoyment of sim racing, I use mainly AC/RRE/RF2 as my CPU isn't strong enough for the likes of IRacing and ACC nor is my bank account lol

[@boostedmedia]

Thanks very much mate

Great race. Great moves. Patient is a virtue. Love your calm demeanor.

Good vid - small suggestion....think you're shifting too much. For example, you'll go up to 4th for a split second while approaching a braking zone and immediately go down back down the gearbox. Just use a bit more revs or bump limiter for a sec. Also, try using 2nd gear to float more entry speed and have a smooth exit instead of 1st....which will cause oversteer from the torque in such a low gear. GT3's are powerful, torquey engines....you don't always need to be at the very top of the rev range.....if you're having to shift up mid corner before hitting the exit curbing, you're in too low of a gear. So instead of going from 3rd, 4th for a split second, and back down to 2nd, 1st in some corners.....just bump limiter in 3rd, then down to 2nd. Much less shifting and I think you'll pick up time. This will also translate well into rain driving.

[@shebeski]

I second this, he's way too high in the rev range too often.

[@boostedmedia]

I did try shifting less during practice but found I wasn’t getting the rotation I needed.

[@shebeski]

@@boostedmedia you're spending a lot of time past rev limit, though. Hanging out after rev limit doesn't help your acceleration. Once your lights flush once or twice you need to get into next gear, unless you're near a corner, then hold in the gear. Timing of downshifts is important for rotation, but being in 4th way over your rev limit doesn't help you rotate more. Being in 5th and then quickly dropping into high rev 4th will give you the rotation you need without peeling off your speed. Watch this vid again. It sounds like you're shifting by what sounds cool from the engine and now what the engine wants to do to perform best.

Nice work mate, and hello from across the ditch

[@zwarrior1983]

Wow you were rapid here Will. Your driving has been amazing still dont know How you can be fast and talk at the same time…

[@PeterSosinski]

Yup. That's a hard thing to do....breaks focus

[@Marve_4427]

You where very confident and aggressive on this one,i like it...

[@boostedmedia]

Got luckier with the setup this time. Much more confidence in the car.

[@jettpack2232]

Hey Will love the vids! Ive been a long time viewer and love the tracks you have on your wall. I was wondering how have you attached them to your wall? I’ve 3d printed some tracks for my wall but at a loss on how to attach them safely.

[@boostedmedia]

Just Blu-Tac mate :)

[@jettpack2232]

@@boostedmedia ah true eh. Cheers I’ll give it a go. The sim looks soo good btw. Massive envy 😂

[@waynenicol2036]

Great vid Will. Loving this series. Only thing that annoys me with ACC is how once you pass the AI they seem to just give up. You passed the Astin in second and were 2.7 ahead after about a lap and a half. Not your fault of course but just something I notice quite a lot with ACC. Keep up the great work mate.

[@boostedmedia]

Yeah I’ve noticed that too. I had the aggression set much higher this time but still as soon as I got past he was gone. Shame they don’t fight back

[@grayzedynamics]

Yeah I enjoy the content but the racing is not as fun as online. AI doesn't race right. They are either too fast, too slow and not nearly as aggressive as a real driver. Good stuff Will

[@boostedmedia]

That’s why we’re doing the iracing videos too. ACC is a joke online in my experience outside of leagues and it’s not practical to record videos like this while doing leagues.

[@grayzedynamics]

@@boostedmedia makes sense. I'd love to see you in the W12 doing some formula racing. 🙏🏾

[@snareguy6768]

Man great racing! been watching a lot of your vids and you're 9/10 faster than anyone out there. You see how quick you were out of traffic once you took 2nd. Take this as a grain of salt just noticed from watching, but slow down behind traffic that is where you lose soooo much time like turns 9-12 just wait for the straight cause you and the car you're fighting are losing too much time on 1st. Because after the straight you got a lot of time on the guys up front, and you'll keep the car happy. Anyway that was your race to take top podium next time though!

[@Bonoscot]

Excellent yet again. Any chance for future videos in maybe showing your wheel settings/ pedal settings/tyre pressures/ fuel etc etc setup for a races? So we can get an easier understanding to driving a vehicle like this at high speeds and staying on the track a little easier. Feel as if this is missed out a lot on with some content.

[@boostedmedia]

When the series is finished I’m gonna put together some guides :)

[@williamglover7083]

I stopped and missed my dinner, the ending got so intense" what's the what's the specs on that car"she's really amazing.

[@knivessurvives]

Subscribed. Hopefully one day I can afford such a setup -currently fixing my crappy thrustmaster pedals xD Hopefully by the time I do that gas-powered cars won't be obsolete

[@zazadj1]

Hi Will as always spectacular, you have a 3090, what video settings do you need to use for 3 4k screens?

[@patrascualexandru3648]

Another Great Race :)) I really enjoyed it. Jules, has taken advantage when you have battled for the 2nd place. I think that if it were another 5 minutes, you could've bring the victory :)) Great video, keep up with this content, I love it!

[@ReeseTattoos919]

Love you videos bud. I watched most of ur videos. Im running the hue light set up like yours but i have to run a white car and put the select box on the left fender to get any kind of shadows to show up on me and the rig. Would u mind showing what part of the screen u use to get the lights to be bright and also cast the shadows?

[@boostedmedia]

I’m using the entire screen at the moment. But it’s trial and error. Usually the area directly above the bonnet works best to capture shadows.

[@bergwf]

Nice move on Jack… you’ve watcht Daniel Ricciardo😎

[@danpblogger]

Do you think it would be possible to do some races in the calloway Corvette? I'd be interested to see how you drive it.

[@d0cspeed]

Can you share graphics settings? I have a high end gaming PC but I am unable to view ACC like this.

[@123_divyanshsingh_parmar8]

its always enjoying watching your videos man

[@boosted3214]

Would you be willing to share your acc FFB settings from the Simucube software? I’m running the SC2 ultimate as well and just curious what you’ve settled on…

[@xavilopez6845]

Ufff, fantastic and incredible realistic images, I love it!

[@MrNobodylikesyou]

Another Great Vid! So glad i made the decision to get a sim rig .. so much fun!

[@silentgaming6396]

What wheel are you using?

[@emilzalessky9930]

You're a great racer! Do you use reshade? If yes, can you please send it to me?)

[@taylanvarli2978]

Great race Will! Would you mind sharing the setup? Grip and stability were on another level, especially in the first 10 laps.

[@RyRy2312]

Very nicely done sir 💯🏁

[@thehumblepundit9790]

Nice race! Wow! Question about that over take at 10:12. Since you went completely off track, do you give the position back? I know in F1 that's what they have you do if your overtake wasn't 100% on track. Just a rules question. Not trying to criticize, LOL.

[@boostedmedia]

I wondered the same TBH. :/ Probably.

[@jaysoft1312]

Can anyone help me out a bit, relatively new to sim racing but more so new to the high end sim racing and Im really in two minds on what base to get myself a DD1 or simcube 2 pro my hearts with the SC but I cant make a decision any help would be apricated

[@johnmifsud6007]

Great vid will. Keep it up 👍

[@rickygreene3205]

Nice one bro 👌

[@kylethyne2317]

Struggling to understand the advantage of the upshifts when approaching a corner only to downshift a split second later, surely letting the car rev out would leave the car more settled on entry to the turn?

[@boostedmedia]

To get the car to rotate

[@shebeski]

@@boostedmedia as said in another comment, hanging in 4th gear for 3 seconds too long to then shift into 5th for a split second, to then back right back downdoesn't help it rotate. If you notice most of your straight away shifts have you always in the near red line when switching into the next gear. These engines are torque based and like you to hang around more the middle of your rev lights. Shifting late is removing speed, there's nothing more to it than that. You can shift properly and time your down shifts as well. These aren't mutually exclusive ideas.

[@ChrisLikesRacing]

That looks amazing!!!

[@TheMatheus125]

This races are online or offline?

[@firing_pin9971]

nice video mate. You're really over-revving that engine tho

[@clixnetcom]

Tell me something, how you do to move the hands?

[@boostedmedia]

That’s my actual hands and wheel you’re looking at. This isn’t VR. There’s a rig tour linked in the video description.

[@clixnetcom]

@@boostedmedia woooow amazing rig.

[@TonyTurbo78]

Hi Will. Hope you're doing well. Being a long term POV person myself if you can remember me, I'm wondering if you're having any issues rendering out your 4k60 gopro footage with the mixed media ie replay camera etc. Reason I'm asking, of late maybe 4 out of 5 render attempts in Vegas Pro 19 are ending in failure where the Vegas render just crashes the software. I've always used Magix HEVC format for the 4k60 render, but recently it's been so hit and miss which is really affecting my ability to put up content. Any input from you would be helpful. Keep up the great POV work my man.

[@boostedmedia]

Vegas is a horrendously buggy piece of software. Try Davinci Resolve. It’s far better and free.

[@turbohenk702]

I don't understand that you only play iRacing and ACC nowadays? AMS2 is SO much more immersive and has so much more content. With the latest updates it surpassed iRacing and ACC in terms of handling/physics, it's really awesome and for me the next level in sim racing.

[@boostedmedia]

I happen to be doing this video series on ACC currently. Time doesn’t grow on trees.

[@mobjwez]

Brilliant

[@RomuloBoo]

Amazing!!!

[@luizarthurbrito]

Do you do online races?

[@boostedmedia]

Yep. Should be some online iracing videos coming up over the next few days.

[@nunivet7006]

I was wondering why you always leave such a big space to the front at the start. Is there some reason behind it? Or is it because of your talking and being a bit distracted at the start?

[@boostedmedia]

No particular reason but mostly because I’m not 100% sure where they will gun it and I don’t want to run up the back of them or have to brake suddenly and get swamped.

Mmm not sure the steward's would have allowed you to keep that position when you overtook 3rd place and ran off the circuit? Think you should have given that position back but maybe you had already got past him by that point. One for discussion?
