When the racing is so good, where you finish really doesn't matter! 😜

[@jasonknights9640]

That's just what the losers say 😂

[@pf296]

​@@jasonknights9640 it's a game. Time to grow up.

[@jasonknights9640]

Great race. I have been going to Road Atlanta every year since 2011 for Petit Le Mans. It is amazing in person.

[@sethrenigar6012]

Agreed! I went there for my first time for a T/A and Speed Tour race weekend in '23. Its awesome! And that 4+ story drop from the bridge to the front stretch is crazy! There's no picture or video that can do it justice. Once you've seen that with your own eyes, your mind will be blown...

[@davecamyt]

I'd love to visit that place someday 😁

[@Weyco23]

@@sethrenigar6012 It's true, you have to see it in person. The LMDh cars are basically flat out into turn 1 now, and the looking down from the top of the esses at turn 3, down to turn 5 is very cool. I'm lucky enough to be trackside as a photographer at Road Atlanta and Road America.

[@doug_vickers]

Great racing Dave. I was surprised at the lack of carnage as Road Atlanta usually has plenty. Keep it up. 👍

[@BenAshley1977]

Another great video Dave! After my disastrous last couple of races at Zaandvoort, feeling more comfortable here, qualifying around P22/P23 and finishing usually P6/P10.

[@Sneygel]

I just started simracing and Its insane to watch how smooth you drive. my limit right now is a 1:28.2. To see the difference in moving the wheel and braking is so helpful. Hope to improve further and further with your videos. Stay as you are :)

[@davecamyt]

Really appreciate that, thank you 😁

[@CharlesK441]

Might try some GT4. Seems a pretty good series 👍🏾 Excellent race 🏁 👏🏾

[@WallysOG]

daves gonna make me start doing a days asking dave doing TCR! great race

[@coyotemotioned939]

after all my efforts to get faster, i finally, after 4 years....get to grid next to Dave! i was so happy! i was about to be on youtube! DAVE: yeah my qualy lap was ME: i was a little stressed to not messing up things at start^^ i had decent pace but i cant handle the understeer all along in fixed like you did!👌

[@davecamyt]

Haha, that made me laugh 🤣

[@tcs007]

Well, you started your race in the same position I started mine, but you were able to make your pass on P4 and I was unable to. Nice driving Dave.

[@simracinsam]

Nice driving! Love Road Atlanta, had a good race myself in the GT4's there this morning.

[@davidguidolin5818]

I love my forte too thank you for positivity

[@nea_racing7]

What a great race as always. Got my heart pounding in the last lap 😂

[@meawayfromhome]

What a great finish there Dave, some great setups for passing.

[@davecamyt]

Thanks mate. The Macca is awesome out of the slower corners which helped 😁

[@pinkpanther8427]

Yea racing at RA could be a bit better, but man i love this track. Happy to race in gt4 at it.

[@mc483]

I've done a few races this week in the BMW, the poor old Bavarian bathtub is just geared all wrong for the track - 4th gear is faster than 3rd for the left hander at the bottom of the esses but the line between getting enough rotation to make the corner and understeering into the wall is very fine, and you can never get a good run out of the right-hander that leads onto the back straight because 2nd is too short and you bang off the limiter but 3rd is too tall and it lugs. But the racing has been pretty good so I don't mind too much 😊

[@davecamyt]

Aston is the same 🫤

[@OldManiRacing-fj4lg]

Good race really, great to see hardly any carnage.

[@malice930]

Nice Video! I just raced here for the 1st time in an official race in the GT4 Cayman last night. Ran into the same issue. Love the track but its not a good track for overtakes. Didn't have a good quali either with off tracks. Ended up putting my self in Danger trying to overtake slower traffic.

[@randylloyd6612]

You should give Mid Ohio a drive. I really enjoy the challenges it presents.

[@AndreMiguelLopes69]

2 months more and he will get there ;)

[@timroden6617]

Road Atlanta has the best S curves. I like Road America for the best overall track.

[@TheFrontyer]

Great race this one

[@justaccurate1077]

I’ve done two races this week with the gt4s in Atlanta in the Aston Martin both times the leaders took each other out trying to overtake on the final laps it’s tricky to do safely

[@timbrown4928]

Hard track to pass on.....barely misses the podium! Cheers!

[@SimracingJerry]

Love the track! Can we see you in the LMP3 please😊

[@BW_87]

I love the place but you’re right, overtaking here doesn’t really work. Loving the GT4 BoP as well

[@awakeandwatching953]

i really like the moded GT4 cars on ac lfm. been practicing loads and hope to catch a race with em soon as its road america this week with lmp3/gt4 multi class

[@RedlineRossi]

You were mighty in that race dave, especially on corner exit leading onto the back straight. If only you had qualified higher up the grid. Great racing though 👍

[@davecamyt]

The McLaren is so good out of the slower corners 😁

[@RedlineRossi]

@@davecamyt That it might be, but the way you set this up @15:59 for the overtake (against another Mclaren) was great race craft.

[@cyanihilist]

Wild not to see a single Aston in the field. Wonder why?

[@TBolt1]

Do I smell a potential full season of series participation in the air?

[@sethrenigar6012]

Love your videos Dave. I watch almost all of your content. I love Road Atlanta as well. One of my favorite tracks ever. But I disagree with you about overtaking here. I can't think of an area on the track that either I haven't passed or been passed on numerous occasions... I've always felt the exact opposite. I feel like you can race people cleanly anywhere on this track.

[@davecamyt]

Yes it can be done but when the field is so closely matched it's only happening in 2 places. Just like this video 😁

[@TheProtonist]

In the GTP, I won at Sebring sprints and did endurance and all, but I just CANT get clean around Road Atlanta. Which is strange since in the SF23, I was blazing. Maybe I am overpushing. Idk...

[@Beardboost]

You prob need to do an endurance on the weekend to get your saftey rating up

[@graysonmc48]

Thank goodness a fellow single screen user! What fov do you prefer for single screen?

[@davecamyt]

I'm on 85 right now which seems pretty good on my 48" screen 👍

[@TheCth777]

I am really struggling with understeer in turn one in the McLaren as well. Wonder if the Aston would be better here

[@davecamyt]

If you roll off the car early and settle the car in advance it's not too bad. It certainly doesn't like to be rushed 😁

[@niederbayernracing]

Hey Dave what pc specs do you have Right now? As always Great Video ☺️

Were you using the simgrade vx pro pedals in the video?

[@davecamyt]

Yes I am 👍

[@tonesnaps]

@@davecamythow do you have the throttle setup I can't seem to dial mine in the right way. when i let go of the throttle for braking zone the brake and throttle graphs always show overlap, then when i press in all the way on the throttle the graph shows that im only doing ~95%

[@davecamyt]

@@tonesnaps I calibrated my throttle so that as soon as I felt resistance I set that to the max (in the singrade software). Make sure you set the min value slightly more than the raw number. Make sure to save it to device 👍

[@tonesnaps]

@@davecamyt thank you for the quick response.

Man I hate that track, I have never liked it

It's definitely not for the weak.

The track is a roller coaster - so fun to DRIVE. I’m not looking forward to RACING in IMSA there, though. 😅
