"Sim racing won't translate to real world" Suellio: "And I took that personally."

[@autopotatogun]

Tell that to most drifters 😂 almost all the dudes I know that drift started out sim racing / drifting

[@OOoOski]

@@autopotatogun It’s like stupid not to, unlimited seat time for the cost of few tyres.

[@Pjb93]

It has always been an exclusive rich boys' club, and they don't want outsiders. Well our boy here is knocking that damn door down and coming for them!

[@gvnthomas]

​@@Pjb93 It's still a rich boys club, while sim racing can teach the skills without money you still won't get the chance. Suellio has worked hard and is fortunate enough to have turned his sim racing into a career that got him enough money to invest in real racing but without that money he'd more than likely still be sim racing.

[@lok_racing]

I feel you Suellio, I am also a sim racing starting like 3 years ago and I got my racing license last weekend and i cant wait to translate this all to the real world and show it to them

[@JM-um3ql]

What a move on Race 1 Last lap/Final Turn!

[@187ninjuh]

Bro I'm only this far into the video and holy shit, what a move!!!

[@thatfunnykekguy6377]

I had to replay it a few times just to realize, you gotta be crazy to perform something like that. Also very skilled too. Incredible!

[@jjjjrrr678]

One heck of a move!!!!

[@dannycole125]

That's what you call a full send on that one! It was perfection

[@RamzyTheDad]

wow that was SO sick!!! especially to watch it from that perspective like that... so dope

[@gavinleyfield3195]

This is so wholesome. Imma go fire up ACC and crash a few times on the Nurburgring in celebration. Congrats dude!

[@RamzyTheDad]

hahaha in the first 20 seconds just like all of us!

[@KenOtsuka]

It's weird when I find myself with a sense of pride for a stranger like this, but everything about your life story is a victory in itself. Parabéns! Muito sucesso adiante!

[@SuellioAlmeida]

Wow, thank you!! 🙏🏽

[@KenOtsuka]

@@SuellioAlmeida I found your channel a couple months ago, and totally binged your V2R experience in a single night. Very exciting story! As I watched your videos and slowly learnt about your life, I grew a huge sense of admiration for your efforts, and now for your well deserved achievements in racing! As a fan and player of Gran Turismo during my own youth (through PS1, PS2 and a bit of PS4), I was very satisfied to know Brazil has its own Jann Mardenborough analogue! I'm not into sim racing these days, but I can feel you really put yourself in everything you do, and I wish you the best! Cheers from Brazil

[@lopeshernani]

Its extactly what I Thought! During the rain stint I found myself cheering and jumping all over the place! This is a story for the ages!. I Will be watching

[@S-RyosuccFC3S]

i said omg 3 times progressively louder each time...incredible move lol

[@555vrx]

Ohh you were piano player. Now I see where from this intelligence and motorics between feet and hands come. Congratulations Suellio and keep making interesting content for us.

[@PITAH1]

Yes, that must help a lot.

[@srthebox4946]

Gotta heel and toe the piano

[@mikulitsi1819]

Yeah this was a surprise to me

[@willmcclard206]

[@Thomas5785]

it's a proof that "playing videogames" some people say most of the time can be absolutely useful

[@user-wq9mw2xz3j]

uh sure it can. but not just playing the same useless things all the time, learning new things is something else. as for this specifically, racing irl is as useless as racing in a video game, no big difference

[@Rhythmic_Hammer]

I don’t think I’ve teared up since the weeks after my Dad passed, but I’ll admit that I felt your emotions and it got the better of me too. Hard work and perseverance, and now all the self belief you could have to keep propelling you forward. Well done Suellio! 💪

[@SuellioAlmeida]

😭❤️

[@sp33dou]

Really emotional video. What makes his wins extra sweet is that the agressive man who "just doesn't care" and probably paid extra to have the fastest car ended up being slower.

[@AshtonCoolman]

The sportsmanship of the other drivers makes this a series that I want to watch more of. That's some fun racing to see!

[@adredsox79]

That earned u all the respect with older and veteran drivers. They looked at u as u didnt put ur dues in.

[@liamkeagleracing4192]

I watched you race there man I was so happy dude I've been waiting for this video for 2 weeks now yes

[@artomotif.id2023]

Babe wake up,suellio won

[@lawlessfarming9878]

i dont even know who this guy is but wow.....what an amazing video and achievement,you took me on a roller coaster of emotions.

[@ShawnHinck]

All I can say is, you can clearly see the difference in confidence from your first race at seabring to now, it’s like someone else is driving. Amazing work and keep it up! I wouldn’t be sad to see a crew of sim racers doing the Rolex 24 and Le Mans with you and on the team.

[@AR12Gaming]

DUDE YOU LEGEND!! Huge congrats!!

[@siliconcrayon]

Hey buddy, I got so emotional too watching you do what you did. It's just crazy where you came from and that hard work and dedication for your dream. I'm 34 year old with similar dreams and just started in sim racing I know probably it won't happen but you gave me strength and most importantly HOPE ! Thank you man. I was bit down since quite a few days now and this video gave me immense joy. LOTs of love to you and more wins brother.

[@elemento1991]

Hey just figured I would respond as I'm 32 myself. Its never too late to start, and you don't have to go pro to enjoy this sport. Get yourself a cheap kart and start racing your local kart series if you can save up for it. Its probably only $100-150 total every race weekend. That includes the fuel to get there and back, the kart, the fuel for the kart, all of that. Its challenging getting everything setup for it but its definitely the most affordable way to race. I sim raced for years and I wish I had done it a lot sooner because its so much fun even in the slow LO206 class. Its the most affordable to race. While the thrills from insane acceleration and Gforces might not be as high as other series the racing is SUPER close, you're always in a battle for the whole event. Its been a great way to dip my feet in IRL racing.

[@juankawr9910]

10:04 Oh No, you didn't... Holly cow, what a move for P1 on the last freaking corner... so happy for you, man. It could have gone terribly wrong as soon as you touched the breaks with that massive correction, but It was then or never.

[@Skafiskafnjak51]

That move and 29:44. Just so beautiful and calculated

[@Mantorix]

sometimes you have to force a win

[@duckduckduckducc]

This is my first time watching you! You are living the dreams of so many people out there and are an inspiration to many! 5 years ago, you did not know where you would be, and I am excited to see where you will be in 5 years from now :)

[@SuellioAlmeida]

Thank you so much!!

[@liamkeagleracing4192]

Dude good luck tomorrow for Lugana seca

[@TJ_Simon]

Proud of you Suellio. You deserved this experience. Enjoy the journey!

[@chepilevski]

Oh man, did I just tear with you 🙈 Thank you for the beautiful emotional moment you gave me with that last video 🤗

[@Rwilkinson85]

I love Suellio, everything he stands for and just watching him evolve into this racing machine is incredible. Wishing you all the luck for your future races keep killing it.

[@lynxoflight72]

You smashed it. So many clean moves. Last lap 1st race with a brave and absolutely insane lunge in the last corner. With a 3 wide double pass in race two in your first wet race with a solid performance in the slippery. And last but not least, a persistance through a race that couldve been cleaner, constantly waiting for the opportunity and jumping at it when P1 an P2 clashed. You drove outstandingly! The fact that you are in a car with less power and still dominating from pure experience as the race goes on and strong will power is phenomenal. Great stuff! Congrats! And keep living your dream and dream on!

[@TrueSimVR]

Won't lie, I am absolutely mind blown on that over take! I'm trying to take my sim racing career to the next level, so just watching this have given me a real funny feeling! Congratulations dude

[@Le_Month]

I've just watched this video and wow you've come so far over these years and im sure many are proud. I've just begun sim racing because of you and your acomplishments that have inspired me to also start a carrer for racing one day. Good luck with many races and the future that is awaiting you!

[@EyeoftheAbyss]

Great to see you win 3 times in a row! I started sim racing about 5 years ago and you were the only other racer during a practice session, I mentioned needing a setup and you offered me one you made. I’ve been following your YT channel and progress since. Your course is very good too and I recommend it to anyone curious. Congratulations!

[@Kakoulidis_Motorsport]

Congrats on the win and creating this beautiful video, i just wanted to say that your driving, the way you explain things, basically everything you do inspires me everyday to drive harder and faster and i want to thank you for that

[@therayven3147]

I love to see a kid like yourself actually achieve your dreams. Congratulations. I am somewhat of a sim racer myself, but unfortunately, i am too old with not enough years left to even become a pro sim racer, much less a real driver... Glad to see you chase your dreams early when you are young enough to succeed. I really hope you go far in your pro racing career... good luck and may you have many more wins...

[@DJDEVIL82]

You really deserve it. I'm so happy for you. I do Sim-Driving (most of the time) since around 20 years as a hobby. I had no idea about techniques and how to drive. Your videos showed me how to drive. And i feel how i get faster and cleaner on track. Thank you so much. Live your dream. It's your time.

[@SpeedBumpVR]

Huge congratulations to you! Your dreams is truly inspiring. Winning all three races is an incredible achievement and a testament to your dedication and talent. Your journey shows what passion and hard work can accomplish. We're all so proud of you and excited to see where your racing career takes you next. Well done, and keep racing to victory!

[@CAM010BEEZY]

Ballsy moves( one on the last lap), 3 wins in a row, & encouraging words and love to the fans at the podium celebration. Suellio doing Suellio things! 😎😎 Congrats man! You deserve it! 🎊

[@Galactic_sound-racing]

Congrats on the win, you inspire me every day even tho I cannot drive I love sim racing because it gives me that opportunity I will never be able to do in real life, even though I only have a controller it is amazing to drive in games like f1 24 and grab Torismo 7, keep doing your great work and good luck

[@Rezamajedi]

Try the real sim racing, ACC, AMS2, iRacing

[@owenrammel9498]

One of the coolest KZbin videos I have ever watched. Being able to see you win in person 2 weeks ago was so cool. Keep it up man.

[@XuandePD]

That's awesome Suellio. I love seeing the lessons and theories you developed in sim racing translate to success in the real world. It's clear you will go very far in your racing career and I am looking forward to seeing what you will be able to achieve!

Parabéns Suellio! Eu sou arquiteto e música e bateria se tornou meu hobby... Mas antes de tudo isso eu zerava gran turismo 1 e 2 no playstation 1, sempre fui apaixonado por carros, corridas, 24h de le mans, etc... Conheci teu canal por acaso e me inspirei demais, depois descobri que vc era Brazuka e pensei, caralho, temos um novo Senna surgindo? Nunca tive um volante nem nada, mas tenho meu Peugeot turbo e viajo bastante hahaha Acho que chegou a hora de investir em um setup e voltar a correr em simuladores... Se der tudo certo nos próximos meses comprarei teu curso! Você é uma inspiração irmão e merece tudo o que está conquistando! Grande abraço 🇧🇷🟩🔶🔵👏 Brasil sil sil sil sil sil

Congrats Suellio! I love how much you've grown over the time span of me subscribing! This was truly an amazing moment to experience, Im 32 & my dream has always been to race professionally as well. Been sim racing for years and never thought it could happen or be a reality, shared moments like this reignite that fire in me to not quit cause its definitely possible! Congrats on this huge W bro, looking forward to see your future growth!
