This guy doesn’t comment over his videos....he’s a freakin’ commentator. His ability to drive and commentate the entire race is incredible and it’s very enthusiastic and makes it intense.

[@uk4qgaming505]

PROTOSTAR I agree this guys was hammering it round there an still cheating. I play PC2 and know just how hard the game is

[@dalton-at-work]

do you mean "chatting"?

[@coltmark2210]

Instablaster

[@rachidfunaki]

The AI is taking a terrible line through the dipper. Best KZbin racer IMO. It's like watching a race and having an announcer call it the whole way. Can't way to see you race Mt. Panorama in iRacing!

[@wtfuredead]

Yet they accelerate faster out of the corner. how is this happening? (i genuinely want to know, not being sarcastic) From what i can see the AI manages to rotate the car more in both consecutive corners, with a little aggressive weight shifting and using the grip boost from the little fall-off in the first curve.

[@carloszepeda8341]

wtfuredead you can change the skill level of the AI

[@tomar5e115]

VR really makes you feel like your there. Jumping in this car for example, it feels like you have so much room in the car, and the sound of the gearbox slamming through the gears... It's a real treat to drive this in VR

[@tractorguy1994]

I recognized the track from the thumbnail

[@xxTICxxTOCxx]

The corner you keep forgetting, (right after mountain straight) is Griffin's Bend.

[@BlueEyesGaming]

I love that you knew the bathurst was this weekend :) Max respect my man

[@FTRRacingTv]

i think in the uk its on motorsport tv

[@FTRRacingTv]

try motorstv

[@gtegarage2546]

Oh shoot. Now I don’t know which to watch. Japanese GP or Bathurst. I mean, I’m Australian, but Suzuka is bae.

[@BlueEyesGaming]

Bathurst. one is historic. the other is just cool :P

[@FTRRacingTv]

bathurst is like the one weekend to fuck off watching f1

[@kartaltoth684]

the V8s a very durable Jimmy , that heavy rub on the last lap wouldn't be race over

[@MrShidPasta]

:rub:

[@jacklow771]

Kartal Toth with the aero and possible suspension damage he would definitely be disadvantaged

[@kartaltoth684]

these things are very tough ( they aren't made from carbon fiber like a GT3 ) and aero damage would've been minimal (if there would've been any)

[@billythekid8333]

Dark Nite as mentioned, these things can take a beating. They actually make contact at the apex to try and slightly push the front car off the racing line on the exit. Much like Australians; they'll cop a flogging and still charge ahead

[@w0bbl3r]

I'm trying to practice this in the falcon V8, for that ford challenge thing in career mode. Just as you said "it's a little bit grippy sometimes.... as I said that I almost lost it", it took me right back to my laps. This car is incredible. You never quite know what it's going to do. I'm no master sim racer, I use a low-mid-range wheel (DFGT), and am useless at trying to setup the cars for individual circuits and so on. But I do have everything set to "real", and try my best. I found with this car on this circuit though, that one minute I feel I can throw the car around like crazy and it will just grip all the way for me. Then a split second later it will just decide it wants to slide or spin at the slightest input from me. Love it. And found now that bathurst is like laguna seca for me; I love and hate it equally. For this it's that long straight with the fast corner where you need to brake down to third for the next left hander. And in laguna seca of course it's the bloody corkscrew.

[@theLV2]

Man I remember this track from the good ol Toca Race Driver

[@DashHoundRacing]

I was at the race this weekend and the amount of elevation change truly can't comprehended until you walk the track and see for yourself. Truly mind boggling.

[@stewartdaniels9078]

Greetings from America Bro!!! Your commentating/ love of the hunt made me enjoy the ride! Despite not finishing as well as you would have hoped for, it felt like a battle for first place due to the color commentary. I thought you came in 4th place at the end, that's how much i enjoyed the show.

[@GoodMomo]

Interesting to see that you as a brit, have the shifter on your right.

[@ThEtEcHnOsAm]

GoodMomo The majority of the world drives on the other side, it makes sense, I do the same.

[@nosoup9146]

I think he don't have enough space on the left =)))

[@Daz555Daz]

I do the same because left hand drive cars seem to dominate most of the big racing games.

[@bubbagrace2997]

That's because outside of UK, its former territories (minus US & Canada) and Japan we all drive on the right side of the road.

[@viktorianas]

well most people are RIGHT handers mostly, changing gears with right hand is more intuitive, natural for most of people i guess.

[@glenn3646]

Oohh man in VR is a whole ballgame, all racing sim must support VR

[@mikegleghorn5437]

Thanks for running a session at Bathurst, my absolute favorite track.

[@atlanticiacomjr9951]

Well done to you!! I really struggle with PC2. More than PC1. It constantly feels so disconnected and it has some cars with serious issues with handling, and in general some dynamics feel weird at best. I really struggle with the AI, they are really strong in comparison to other sims even at low levels. So you do really well. I'd love to know more about your setup. ☺

[@intrcptr7351]

0:20 That’s my favourite car right there (albeit with a different livery)

[@bubbagrace2997]

I love driving this car. It's probably my favorite series to drive in all racing games.

[@steveeisenburger6011]

G'day brother, I just watched your, "on and off, 3 year time attack attempt at Nurburgring Nordchliefer". Well done on getting that time after much effort. Even if it was only 4 hundredths or something, ya got it. Noice👍🏻🤙🤟🙋‍♂️ Love your work.

[@blakew3351]

BATHURST IS BAE

[@elrapdepia]

Bjoack Horsemack XDD love that show, you are a great driver jimmy! congrats from the land of Fangio!

[@akmal94ibrahim]

Bathurst is like a roller coaster without seatbelts. You need to hang on to the seat, and enjoy the terrifying screamers.

[@kakhak]

This is the pure enjoyment.

[@THESUBZILLA]

man its intense just to watch these videos! its fun! great content, Jimmy Broadbent!

[@Thomas0220]

My favorit track and with V8 is just amazing!

[@steveeisenburger6011]

Because the Supercars are so heavy, when you go over rises, or the front is about to get light, you blip the brake just before turn in, and it'll give the front the point you want.

[@jeanthemachine80]

Awesome videos! You're such a good driver. Can't believe you came in the twenties with all this good driving, it's very demoralizing for me

[@psrschumacher9263]

The chase is one of my favourite corners in the world... too much fun

[@Shon304]

Thats the funniest sponser idea I have ever seen

[@Staki6908]

heck ya my first time doing this track ever was in PC2 and wow.. I hated it at first, no I love it. So much fun and yes in VR those walls are damn scary. I found out something recently that I can crank up nearly all the settings to high using the Vive after going to the forums and tinkering around a bit. Odd, turning down the graphics and the game ran worse... /shrug hopefully stuff they can patch in later. Anyways do more VR videos we like em and good luck in iracing on that track i'll be watching!

[@Woopass90]

Great vid Jimmy. Your local knowledge is impressive.

[@jamesowen3186]

Don't have VR headset myself but I think that the way you've recorded this race looks great even in 2D. .

[@MegaGeministar]

Very impressive that you commentate while racing. Even more impressive that you do so without a lot of, 'uh' or 'um' while doing it. I think you could be quite successful as an announcer for racing, you've got the voice and the dialogue. I'm sure with some prep work beforehand, you'd remember all of the corner names. Kudos and I'm now subbed.

[@alexbourgeois7863]

These cars are a blast at Long Beach and spa

[@intrcptr7351]

3:11 usually The Kink is taken flat out but once you’re pointing straight you slam the brakes

[@nicholasmcaulley9084]

Nice driving mate. It's a great track. I'm actually going to pay it a visit next month.

[@harryfreq3199]

Jimmy would make a good f1 commentator, He's like a modern Murray Walker

[@maturegameplay7369]

nicely done Jimmy! one suggestion, could you reverse your camera? it is weird seeing your hands moving opposite to game steering wheel 😆😆

[@Okeanos86]

hahaha... i'm not the only one :D Wrote that months ago after jimmer started to use a cam. the answer? "will do". yeah nah... it never happened :P

[@yammmit]

That’s not something I’ve ever even thought of. My brain just understood that it’s flipped but knew which way he was turning relative to the game.

[@Okeanos86]

@TIMMAY67 have fun knowing it... it's something you only start to notice after somebody points it out to you and it will make you insane after a while :P

[@7DeFinitive7]

Good commentary while racing, nice work!

[@johngardiner1942]

Jimmy can you do a video showing how you set up your cars ...it would be fest to see what you do and why !! Cheers Boooiii

[@steveeisenburger6011]

I live on those mountains that you see on the way back down Pt panorama The Blue Mountains. 👍🏻

[@TRSF1RACING]

nice WORK jimbo

[@rado2067]

Love your vids m8 keep it up

[@Matty5.9]

Fantastic video!

[@lewisgordon1490]

104%? 😯 I just did a 45 min race here in the BMW touring car @ 34% AI, 91% aggression, and was only able to get up to 19 from 32nd w/ no big mistakes

[@starkalarm]

Love it....this will be my next race in VR

[@B0SS330]

That's some good driving mate :) Nice to see the FG Falcon's in this game... never get tired of seeing that bonnet bulge when driving my GT... high 5 !!

[@PabloSison]

Brilliant driving, while commentating. Awesome awesome skills!!!! :)

[@kanob6440]

id be fucking sweating using that vr. its so cool rather than just having a wheel

[@MaXGTS1]

If only the resolution was this clear when looking thru my Oculus hmd.

[@rock-oz7eg]

MaXGTS1 is it really that bad? Im coming from 2x 27” 2560x1440 144hz monitor to the oculus tomorrow.. will i regret it??

[@itastain]

Great race. This track is great on R3E with the nissan sylvia turbo

[@Loudlevin]

Bathurst always gives me the meat sweats.

[@stewjade]

Top stuff Jimmy, tune her up and you can use the curbs more and hi from Oz. Big day tomoz down here.

[@AndreSiqueira]

Amazing video. Makes me want a proper pc and VR asap.

[@cursethesemetalhans]

I wish this game had custom tournaments. I want to set up a 60s F1 around the historic tracks or a NASCAR thing on the ovals and Watkins Glen etc fuck it even a FormulaX rallycross series.

[@riotracing55]

2:18 4:29 6:39 8:50 10:59 can't FLIM FLAM the Jim Jam :)

[@TheGh02t]

I think you should take the GT3 cars up there next.

[@TheGh02t]

That would be cool as well. I was thing more along the lines of the Bentley Love Boat.

[@dalton-at-work]

something classic and drifty would be ass-puckeringly good with all the walls looming

[@TheGh02t]

R30 Skyline GTR Turbo Group A?

[@marquisegoodwin2481]

I have to say this, I really enjoy your content..

[@arnoldfaas8845]

Great experience with VR 👏👏👏👍🏻👍🏻

[@CJoke23]

well done

[@mattfarrar5472]

Happy Bathurst day for tomorrow mate.

[@ZZPxFTW]

out of all the progress pcars has made in pcars 2, the V8SC are the biggest disappointment. its just a copy past from pcars 1. the models are far outdated now, and its still a 1 make grid? come one. the current gen cars are like 5 years old now already, and pcars has a nissan and GM license... SO WHATS THE HOLD UP. (id really love to see the volvo and merc, but we know that will never happen)

[@xxblatxx]

I DONT EVEN LIKE SEEING THEM IN THE REAL RACE... oh soory caps... bathurst 1000 has been at least for the most part a Holden vs ford battle.. and that is now a thing of the past.(just like Holden and ford i guess in Australia) at least>>> .. kinda sad if you r a die hard fan. :( i just watched a German made "Holden" commo run around the track. (sandman) phhh its a station wagon with twin turbos.. sorry to say guys the days of ford v Holden are long gone... its a sad day for an iconic Australian race... WELCOME TO GLOBALIZATION FUCKERS :)

[@ccleadge]

holden v ford hasnt existed in (supercars) for a good 5 years when they introduced the COTF chassis,. project sandman is no different its just 888 racings test mule which is not german made, its actually whincups old chassis from 2013 season. www.performancegarage.com.au/blog/888-sandman-tribute-edition. as for being a die hard fan idk what badge, shell or engine is on the chassis, just so long as we can continue to have an aussie top tier racing category

[@skitzosoldier8036]

cleadge how's that relevant

[@ccleadge]

i was replying to chris harris, didnt make that clear so my bad.

[@skitzosoldier8036]

cleadge oh sorry I didn't read previous replies

[@stuartmarshall7099]

That was brilliant. Thanks

[@Almostas]

Favourite sim racer on youtube. Would like to race with you some times :D

[@CarltonMelson]

You should drive this track in an Audi R18. That's fun.

[@Kickapoo2004]

It sucks that there is no Commodores though

[@longslongprong]

Need to give you an official job commentating at the race in Australia when its on.

[@ranchu8385]

love u jimmy

[@randomcallsign]

yes they are

[@krosapachuau6509]

I'm subscribing

[@goran3149]

I'm so jealous right now.

[@jimsmusicalendeavours1383]

How do racing games still fuck up the split control line at Bathurst? There's a start line and a separate control/finish line, they aren't all the one line ffs.

[@sjwilli1972]

Great stuff jimmy B, I'm normally good on tyres, until I got in the v8, any set up tips please 😀

[@chrismurphy8383]

The visuals we are seeing on the video --- are they a carbon copy of what you are seeing in the headset - I use Index and there tracks can seem hazy in the VR. Wondering if it is me or that's how it is

[@richardwhite6071]

Guys don't forget the graphics might look wonky because it's been recorded through the computers (probably) then put on line and we're watching it through our screens so we're going to lose some resolution at some point. You can only really appreciate the graphics if you're playing it your self.

[@danielsgrunge]

Mt. Panorama 💕

[@KDSRirelandboy1]

The typical aussie will take offense to "V8 Boat"

[@ryannickens7848]

wish there was a way he could smooth out the jitter in these VR videos. SO hard to watch.. Of course, if I had the headset on it wouldn't be a problem

[@raoni1335]

Parece que tem epilepsia ... 😂🤣💥🤛🏾

[@chrisvanegmond3157]

Are you going to do the iRacing Bathurst 1000 this weekend?

[@mxolisisosibo4923]

GREATEST GAMER BY FAR, # SALUTE

[@smeef9993]

Hey bud really enjoying your Videos :) i wonder where you get your Gloves from?

[@person5551]

is this the first time that he said jimmy here not anything else?

[@coaldoubt2879]

i must say, VR looks like fun to drive but its not as much fun too watch

[@wikke1984]

did you make allready a movie of your new rig mate?

[@kyle_stephens]

Do you ever have any problems with headaches or dizziness using the VR headset?

[@q3zenith]

Dude i love your voice lol

[@aleczani]

Fucking legend man!

[@PapaBaush]

What setup do you run on your v8? Looks way more stable and balanced than mine (default really and controller rn) thanks in advanced

[@MrCatseyes01]

Looks like a snes game

[@XyL0Ph0n3]

How much does this setup cost? Looks so fun

[@trecooledge1326]

Hey bro, at mount pan, on 6 tree first turn, the turn at the bottom of her bottom through all the s curves and the final turn, ha Dr ghee bae slowed down to what I call, your maximum minimum showed to get through the corner, you'll get through the Corner faster, be acme to get back on the throttle harder, and obviously will help you carry a lot more speed down those long straights. Great video though. That is one of those tracks that, if you slow down, you'll actually go faster. Sounds crazy I know. But trust me. It works for me.

[@purplehazeffc]

Anyone else think that there is not a lot of difference in speed??? Either at 290kph or 190kph there is not a great deal of difference. And the slow corners, specially with the AI cars just seem to fly around the corner.. Is that just the VR in Pcars2 ??

[@pumpkineater23]

Is this car RHD? Why is your (real) shifter on the RHS?

[@notmarstaw4477]

Do you think VR is better for League Racing ? I have only one monitor or using vr. What is the best for simracing ?

[@clairofan01]

Marstaw vr > single monitor

[@heat1235]

if you can stand VR for hours its the way to go..

[@armstrn]

Jimmy Broadbent is it as jerky when you have the vr head set on or just is it when it gets put to youtube

[@richardwhite6071]

I've heard some people have been suffering with head aches because of the use of the VR head set has any of you guys suffered with this. Can you let me know please cause I would like one for Racing and Horror games but, I don't want to have head aches every day. Thanx

[@slowster2945]

Probably adding to the chorus, but the finish line is in the wrong spot...

[@daren42]

!punt

[@arupian666]

Aw bless.... he wears a little pair of gloves when he's playing... I don't even wear socks...

[@bintang7560]

I hate our tame the dipper is in so many games. Seems the only sim to have the steepness right is IRacing
