[@dannyleeracing]

This track looks absolutely insane, like a whole bunch of Montreal T5's stringed together - this is not something any ordinary person would have the guts to do. Great job and the experience will surely be unforgettable

[@reviewforthetube6485]

So true

[@AustinOgonoski]

This is a great comment, it's like Montreal of the middle east.

[@guitarsimon1]

Hi Danny! Hahaha that's the most accurate description of Jeddah I've ever heard 😂

[@Jaaames]

Never thought of Jeddah like that, very true😂

[@bops73]

Watched the race, Great result for you and the team. hopefully you'll get a permanent Drive. I really think you deserve it with hardly racing and being able to jump in like you do and get on pace, proves you're good enough glgl James.

[@vojtechnovacek7776]

James surely is good enough, everyone knows this but these seats must be paid for by the drivers and the funding is the biggest problem.

[@hellowill]

[@Jaaames]

Thank you! Now the hard work to find the budget to go racing next year begins👊

[@kristaps2010]

James is a true proper dedicated simracer, he joins real GT3 races, gains experience, wins trophy between the very best in the world just to get better at simracing, come back and smash us all : )

[@B4JALT]

Was at the grand stand of t1 and saw you overtake an insane amount of cars. Awesome work brother!

[@Jaaames]

[@brandogt3racing]

Mr Baldwin Sir (aka: James) It was a brilliant performance for an ambassador of sim racing - to get the opportunity as you had just goes to show the world how good you are (no rephrase that - how GOAT) you were in the race. Garage_59 saw your talent and you did all that you could during the race. To see your name on TV brought a smile to my face, because of your passion for sim and real racing. Lets hope Garage_59 rings you more often. Your two stints was absolutely spot on, kept it out from the walls, hardly any penalties, no drive throughs or 20 second stop and go. Because as I have said before and say it again - your mind is in sim-racing, but your heart is out there racing on a real racing circuit. As a disabled sim racer, all I can say - Well done James, its well deserved! Podium winner at the 6 hours at Jeddah! Brilliant! I'm still smiling here and after seeing you on the podium at Jeddah. It was truly an unforgettable experience, lets hope there's more to come in 2025 - fingers crossed for you James.

[@grumpygrandad1216]

Well done James congrats mate, I’m an ex now retired group c sportscar, F3000, and BTCC mechanic from 80’s and 90’s so I know what it takes. Will follow your journey next year. All the very best mate

[@EthanDean57]

What a golden age you've been involved in. Envious!

[@grumpygrandad1216]

@ Thank you, yes they were incredible times for sure, best time of my life, unfortunately at the time you don’t realise that fact

[@Jaaames]

@@EthanDean57 exactly what I was going to comment lol

[@Tyaren63]

You deserve a full season cockpit James.

[@guitarsimon1]

Absolutely, consistent competitive driving with a big following to show the sponsors, total no-brainer.

[@Jaaames]

❤️

[@marcusmiller8267]

I think you’ve earned that full time ride. You’re right there with the top dogs in skill set now. I got to meet Daniel Morad last year at Road America. Super nice guy and an engaging conversationalist.

[@Jaaames]

Thank you sir! Yeah Daniel seemed like a top bloke.

[@ItsMarkWeller]

Unreal result mate, Absolutely FLYING, I was screaming at the TV at points watching you climb through the pack after the saftey car haha. What a year you've had! 🔥

[@Jaaames]

Cheers Mark ya ledge🤝

[@CO-ty7nf]

I’d love to see how you work as a race driver. How you prepare a few weeks before, a few days before, the race weekend, etc. Is love to see how you work out, eat, practice, what you do outside of the car and sim (you must take notes and visualize right?) and more. I’ve seen a lot of surface level videos but never one that followed a driver through all the prep.

[@Jaaames]

That would be content I’d definitely like to make, if I go racing next year will try to do it🫡

[@reviewforthetube6485]

The goat, legit the only sim racing/real racer I listen to. Racing at the highest level.

[@Jaaames]

🤝

[@slaphead90]

I was watching this in the background and then I heard a very familiar voice conversing with Mr John Watson MBE. Glad you got to drive again, and hopefully you'll get more next season.

[@Jaaames]

What a legend John is

[@kristaps2010]

@2:17 love the image of kayaker lost his paddle,,, WOW I realised I'm watching all this video with my jaw dropped, especially the fastest lap footage. OMG, fantastic to experience all this even from my screen. thank you James Well done with first podium in GT3 Challenge, it's just the start!

[@Kefuddle]

Not only are you a racing driver, you are a rock star. What a showing! Well done. Can't wait to follow you through next year for more 🍾

[@quick2k3]

James, I love watching you drive in the sim and irl. Just butter smooth on the inputs. Full time seat coming--keep up the hard work.

[@Jaaames]

[@lukeduffy130]

Let’s be fair James, that was some bloody overtake, nice job

[@RichardTraverse]

Your stint after the FCY was crazy to see, you got really good coverage on the stream from it. Really hope you can get some more driving time next year

[@orpik87]

Of course we want the raw uncut footage but maybe with your commentary? What was your decision making in the process of the overtaking (?) Thank u, great results!

[@Jaaames]

[@Jaaames]

A long time follower I see, thank you. Appreciate the support always🤝

[@geoffreybees]

I'm loving this track on the sim lately on rennsport. Pretty challenging but when you hook it all up for a few lap boy is it satisfying!! . Great vid mate enjoyed from start to finish. Great end to 2024 for you bud 😊

[@TKiBoule]

Is there a community for online races on Rennsport nowadays ? Heard the game was pretty dead but haven't checked myself

[@Leper_Messiah.]

Great work mate, keep up the hard work and it will pay off. You will get a full season drivers contract with a team soon. Cheers.
