iRacing Top 10 Highlights - July 2020

[@daveshively3295]

That pit entry...he is now a legend!

[@JeffWeselyan]

Ikr

[@BillStreetStudios]

@@JeffWeselyan he probably got a penalty though

[@markdemars7044]

You could never do that in a thousand races ran on iRacing. Literally a one in a million chance of that happening.

[@daveshively3295]

@@markdemars7044 I totally agree....I bet his hands looked like he was swattin flies! No way it would happen again.

[@HeriEystberg]

Was that in an official race or was it a lobby where he was having fun and messing around?

[@benthepenguin7435]

Dude that pit entry looks more like a comercial stunt to me. "The new Miata, now at your Mazda dealer!"

[@theoriginalshew]

A lot of people on Reddit (one of the main subs too, not just r/simracing or r/iRacing) though it was real

[@DavidDuMusic]

The second-to-last and last clips were pure GOLD. Those two probably used up all their luck for the decade.

[@jamescato7136]

Zeeshan deura the one in the number 2 spot is a good friend of mine. We race in a Super Speedway league together and he has horrible luck so yes I would say he has used up all of his luck for the decade.

[@flynbenny]

As an occasional official and pit crew member that last one was incredible to watch, but I’m guessing that it or anything remotely close to it would earn you a perma-ban in real life. Incredible to watch in the digital realm though...

[@zeeshandeura2919]

James Cato Cato you’re my favorite person in iRacing

[@evannsouillard1051]

Century*

[@prodforza4amg114]

hahaha

[@bartterp88]

You can't ever copy that pit entry. Even if you tried, hundreds of times in a row. That was brilliant.

[@cbrunnem6102]

The thing is is that it was intentional. Who knows how many times he tried before.

[@TriggerVR657]

cbrunnem definitely wasn’t but on

[@zeeshandeura2919]

Thanks for giving me number two, that was the craziest wreck avoidance I’ve had in almost two years on the service.

[@marshallpeters1437]

That was impressive man good job!!

[@jamescato7136]

I was hoping it would be number 1 but after seeing that pit entry there was nothing that could top that.

[@zeeshandeura2919]

marshall peters thanks!

[@zeeshandeura2919]

James Cato true

[@jefferyhyatt8429]

You would of had #1 but that pit entry is absolutely legend! Great job though not many people could manage that. Skill and a tad bit of luck 👌🏼👍🏼

[@TheBigDawgSL]

#1 is the utmost STANK when it comes to pulling off a pit entry. that was AWESOME

[@unif_damoloss3932]

The Pit entry ???!! Wtff

[@HauteGameFR]

LUCK xD

[@basingold3651]

I hope the Marshalls are featured!! They are becoming their own meme

[@Soze94]

I was so impressed with number one that I started laughing when I saw it.

[@Bullshit_Media]

And before was i impressed of how F1 drivers (and indy, p1...) but espesically f1 could hit theyr pitboxes perfect almost every time...

[@lukazivkov960]

I couldn't stop laughing for 5 minutes

[@fernandorocha5689]

Man, yees

[@charliebeals2766]

Deura stared straight in the face of iRacing death and said not today my friend

[@markstuart8401]

the last clip is pure gold lol

[@프레디khjfreddy]

4:29 that awkward moment of panic before realizing that you actually did the impossible and acting cool to center your steering wheel

[@Jt7166]

My heart stops everytime I get an iR notification now thinking it's going to be the new LMP2 preview...false alarm😂

[@xImCJx]

I thought after #2 there was no way #1 would be better. Boy was I wrong! Unreal that pit entry!!

[@maxversthappening8166]

3:55 this my friends is not luck. No, this was pure skill

[@BillStreetStudios]

I highly doubt he had it all previously calculated

[@reindeer4274]

@@BillStreetStudios 😐

[@prodforza4amg114]

Thanks Max :D

[@xtibit]

he could have tried it in practice, and pulled it off in the race

[@프레디khjfreddy]

3:43 that blue 86 car threw himself to make way for the 10

[@Riggsfan99]

2:07 doc was right turn right to go left

[@me3251]

That’s just how drifting works

[@oguztmn]

2 and 1 is amaaaazing

[@cholover7]

Woohoo, I made it in as #10 Thanks Alex / iRacing :D

[@joemommasvids]

That number 2 though!

[@ATribeCalledCars]

Okay that last clip was brilliant.

[@Realic_gaming]

I knew the pit entry was 1!!! How could it not be? That guy is a freaking legend!!!

[@TwentyFourSlevin]

You can almost hear Jim Carrey shout "like a glooooove" to that pit entry!

[@StePhillips]

I always enter the pits like that. I need to start submitting them.

[@j9vlikz683]

K

[@FloridaManRacer]

#1 WOW WOW WOW. What else can be said?!

[@shanebarker3131]

Me at the last one - Oh COME ON !!!....

[@prodforza4amg114]

Thanks! Great Top 10 congrats to all!

[@cinzo]

Pit crewman didn't even flinch.

[@daedalus_20v]

They practiced ahead of time.

[@ChazISfat]

NO WAY!! THE PIT ENTRY WTFFFFF!!!

[@StudioDaVeed]

So it appears at times the highlight folks use Trading Paints but other times not?

[@JanitorIsBack]

might have something to do with copyright issues they do not want to deal with

[@StudioDaVeed]

@@JanitorIsBack That could be however some of the paint schemes if not TP are user generated which would explain why so few seem to have non-standard iRacing paints. I know from my flightsim days there is a fine line to free user created paints. UPS for example; had an issue with someone using a paint scheme on a 747 that was offered for free. Backlash quickly caused them to reconsider. Now, asking for payment for a paint scheme is a totally different matter.

[@Proccito]

If Carlos Ramos from the last clip and Luigi from Cars would work together, they would be unstoppable.

[@2slow2catch]

I love watching all these near misses and crash avoidances then thinking about how net code can effect you when you're 10ft away from someone else lol

[@KetchupRacingSquad]

Second to last clip was just a re-enactment of Cars the first race lmao lighting McQueen be like

[@PhO3NiX96]

Respect to the pit crew that didnt move. The trust in the driver is real

[@davidalleyne934]

It's the big one at Talladega

[@EWRL_Emerson]

Thank you for #9! That’s epic

[@vichon4602]

Wow last clip was absolutly amazing he must be a formula drift driver to perform that! Awsome!

[@javichaguin1593]

Vaya sacada el n.1!!!

[@hbharrison1984]

Oh my... That last save was epic

[@joshuachipling6923]

That MX5 move was on point, great video all round

[@JohnBaxendale]

That pit entry, OMG, that pit entry.

[@nobilt]

this guy holding stop sign in this legendary box has nerves of steal

[@datavis5909]

I have no words for #1

[@benjaminduncan4286]

What a pit stop entry, 100/10 for that

[@matteocecconi7560]

Insane pit entry

[@palmerstubbs4067]

the last one is insane...

[@Decebalus]

I thought the last one was just going to be a big slide through the pit entrance, but then when he stopped right in the box I couldn't believe it!

[@Ren_1090]

The #1 clip was more satisfying when The Box was edited over it. The timing of the music made the clip that much better. Check out Alex’s twitter @iRacing Alex for that version of the clip. You won’t regret it.

[@akinokazeph]

my jaw dropped when i saw that pit entry

[@Spitts]

Was that pit entry intentional? I used to do stuff like that in my first car and got pretty good at drifting into parking spaces and stuff but that's another level. If that was on purpose that dude is a god, if it was an accident that dude is a god.

[@Niko-Tesla]

That pit entry tho…

[@axemanracing6222]

0:16 with this collision detection system, yes this is a lucky miss. My eyes told me he was driving thru a flying car.

[@bukanmatin5973]

Yep, play it back in 0.25x, it's obvious that the collision detection system isn't sensitive enough to realize that the top of his car is actually touching the flying car.

[@MarcCastellsBallesta]

I'd love to see the telemetry from the couple of saves.

[@nitrotrends1566]

That’s my man aiden. I spotted him for that race and omg you should have seen his reaction

[@slowanddeliberate6893]

That last pit entry one was insane. How did he do it?!

[@derekloweree2520]

i had a race in july at dega where the distance between first and second was 0.000 seconds i wish i knew how to submit races

[@pestilence_5.0]

Still haven't stopped holding my breath since that pit entry clip. Wth.

[@moreno7698]

insane insane insane pit

[@hanjarake_taro]

3:49 THIS IS THE ALL TIME BEST

[@facealexitohdnp]

The skipi need a halo 😂😂

[@bobcook599]

Pit entry = RESPECT!

[@Bitc0in_Sat0shi_Crypto]

Carrrrrrrrrrrrrrloooooooooosssssssssssssssss what a man !!!!!

[@Animal_lives_matter]

I think #1 was intentional, and honestly it's not that hard in terms of skill, just requires a lot of trial and error to get the timing exactly right. That's what I think, could be wrong, but don't think so based on the position of the steering wheel from the cockpit - seems to be deliberately angling it into the pit lane. Regardless, I still think it deserves to be #1 :)

[@Alessandr_G]

Neanche canepazzo col suo parcheggio sportivo!

[@piojag9680]

number 1 lost the race but won our hearts :)

[@tryhardwaffles]

Saw #1 in a video on one of the Facebook pages glad it got #1

[@lettucelettucelettuce]

When will the full AI tracks and cars be added??

[@NoTechDrama]

Soon

[@patriograysmark6328]

Yeah, Carlos Ramos, Russ Swift called, he wants his mx-5 back. Dunno if anyone could have done that move if they actively tried.

[@jaredtaylor2732]

Anyone notice the cars clipping through each other has been more noticeable?

[@DNP_10]

That perfect pit entry is on reddit in r/oddlysatisfying

[@theoutlaw8]

im surpised that the sign holder when the car was spinning on pit road didnt flinch

[@charliewiltshire3723]

LIKE A GALOVEEEEE

[@Daz555Daz]

Please iRacing - enforce the yellow line at Daytona!

[@liquidkameleon]

Did #1 enter the pits on purpose back then? How did that not violate the speed limit?

[@dev_vadchhedia]

0:38 me and the boys going to the supermarket

[@sca04245]

ez pit entry. crew member didn't even blink.

This is what's possible when Netcode doesn't strike

[@hongthainguyen5334]

Netcode did somewhat help the #3 save.

The no. 1 Is the no.one of the Yeah!!!

[@voodoo7008]

Post Weedsport already.

[@atielemmens6323]

Super!!

[@justinkrizenesky]

3:15. Idk who was commenting that, but that save had nothing to do with traction control 😂

[@seamusmckeon9109]

Better late then never

[@mclarenrob2]

There should be some kind of system where if you crash badly, your player can die in game, and you can never play the game again. That would take away the element of you can't die.

[@hongthainguyen5334]

_But muh subscription..._

[@kilgore3D]

Je pense qu'il y a trop de privilégier pour la création des top 10. Du coup des fois c'est pas super. À voir le mois prochain

el 2do puesto es el Diego en el 86'

[@conorhorn2471]

The 7 car at #5 😬

[@Andy-zc1dp]

3 is the new nascars guys

[@big1722]

I love this game I just wish it was cheaper, and with PlayStation.

[@NolanRempel]

I would argue that a 2 hour race is hardly endurance.

[@BillStreetStudios]

In a videogame context it is: people in the 00s complained that the endurance races in Forza were too long and as a result they were removed. We are talking about 20 lap races😐

[@NolanRempel]

@@BillStreetStudios As a fellow that has frequently raced in, commentated, and race controlled events well over 2 hours on a weekly basis, i can safely say that forza drivers have no clue what they're talking about.

[@BillStreetStudios]

@@NolanRempel agreed, but my point is these are videogames in the end of the day, so the usual is 2-3 laps. Very obviously races x10 longer will be labeled as endurance even if by real life standards they're not even close

[@NolanRempel]

@@BillStreetStudios Welp, that's iRacing for you. Unless it's a special hosted event, no event will be done within 10 minutes

[@APiccolo]

@@NolanRempel There's actually week 13 (or 14) races which can be 10min long, but I get you

[@denishanjoul]

But he got caught for speeding in the pit lane, right?!
