The Most Intense Race I've had on iRacing

[@addysin004]

the driving by all the drivers was so clean and when you have clean drivers in your lobby you know you can make moves like that while being respectful enough

[@rishabh3150]

So often you've been getting screwed over by incompetent drivers in league races that you could've easily won or got a good chunk of points in... finally a place where clean drivers like yourself can compete and surprise surprise, the quality of racing here is miles clear of F1 22... More of iRacing please JD !

[@AgeD33]

That final lap was fire. Really enjyoing the iRacing content your enjoyment just amplifies the viewing experience

[@Dragonball438]

One of the few channels I actually watch instead of just opening for backgroud noise, Awesome race!

[@JDisLimitless]

Means a lot man, thank you ❤

[@Xzibitfreek]

i remember when i started in iracing, i asked folks in the forum if i should pick ferrari gt3 challenge or skip barber for D class when I just made it out of rookies. I was recommended the skip barber and man, that was some of the finest racing i have ever experienced. even though the skip barber isnt very fast, it has so much personality and is so much fun to drive. i dont think its as popular these days anymore and i didnt race it again after that season but i definitely have fond memories of the series.

[@otjnkto]

Hi james, i'm still grateful to have clicked on one of your videos all those years ago. You are so inspiring and motivating. I was just a silent spectator for years, but today I want to say thank you for all those beautiful moments and videos. You are the reason I drive in a Formula 1 league today and I am very grateful for that. I sincerely wish you all the best in the future, with love janik

[@JDisLimitless]

Thank you Janik that means a lot ❤

[@eudesrafael3029]

WHAT A RACE MATE! I had so much fun with the Vees this week, happy to see you smile too!

[@AmYiChai]

Two personalities that the voice changes so often, so drastically? :p

[@babiiblueboi]

That was fkn brilliant. Such a beautiful last lap pass. Your race craft is top tier. Keep going Limitless

[@tamasdmmolnar9450]

After paying RDR2 non stop for the last month , a little racing is a good brain refresh. Thanks JD!

[@jakers12345678]

Man I miss RDR2, what a game.

[@ikigaialien7159]

​ @jakers12345678 been in the same situation, finally played it last month, what a game! now also back to racing :)

[@fahod66]

Couldn't help myself but clapping at the end Amazing race

[@keldontheodore44]

Incredible race, that final move was masterful - epic stuff

[@nordwand4519]

The voice of the engineer reminds of Bono by how calm he speaks. Good race

[@JallyTee]

Great to see open wheel racing from a top driver in iRacing, not just another bland GT3 race. you have some of the best commentary. looking forward to seeing more like this.

[@TTRJoyrider]

Nice win that was a great move around turn 3. The problem with the shift is shifting too fast when the revs are too high in first gear. It doesn't like it. Wheelspin doesn't help matters but if you get a nice start shift just before you get into the high revs and be conscious of it. Its very easy just to let muscle memory do its thing and end up in neutral 😅 Its like a punishment for being to fast with your feet in this car 🤪 It can happen in 2nd aswell but 3rd to 4th seems to handle clutching faster ok. Old beatles h patten box can't handle them f1 milliseconds shifts 😄

[@riccardo.9693]

JD, That was AMAZING !!! I was screaming in my head all the long. These are the results you deserve since a long time. GG

[@n.anup89]

THOROUGHLY ENJOYED!! Hopefully the VR follows quickly 👍

[@philrobson1546]

Ive had a few intense race like that in the last few days, it does make you smile when you get the best of them. great stuff, keep it up

[@FacepalmEqualsFun]

Glad to see you finally giving iRacing a try!!

[@KoolEmpty1979]

Shows up in default livery...beats everyone. Fun race, good to see you working yourself (rather quickly) up the ranks. Whether it's the Vee's, Mazdas, TCR's or whatever, the slower cars do generally have closer racing.

[@wessmath2461]

Great timing, just opened KZbin ahah. Cheers man, love your content 🙌🏻

[@JDisLimitless]

Thank you mate 👊

[@Lucas_Pit]

Great stuff James. Love your videos and can learn a lot from you. This morning did the Roar in the GR86. That was actually my first longer race and mixed one as well. That is really intense with the GT cars flying around left and right LOL. Kept on making place for them and lost out in the bus stop by doing that. Hit luckily no one but my car was waisted. Had to get a 12 minute pitstop and even then it wasn’t back to the old performance. Losing at least 15KMh at the end of the straight. So in principle race done…. Ended up still on P13 though LOL but that costed me some SR and iR. Hop to see you in VR soon, I’m only simming in VR the entire time. It is really immersive and far more better than F1 22

[@japserrwik4656]

A bit off-topic, but I noticed you have a Moza wheelbase. Are you happy with it? I'm planning on getting the R9 base in a couple of months and would like to know your experience with it. -Edit- Should have finished the video before commenting :D.

[@jackishy1261]

Love iracing, love your iracing progress

Some pretty good race craft from you! 🎉Keep it up JD hope to see you sometime in iRacing

[@cashmoney56911]

If you use the clutch it doesn’t go to Neutral when shifting gears .

[@MylesHimself]

Reactor 2 in VR is the best Experience you can have

[@schlaepp1502]

I love this Rudskogen so much! Specially in this cars. Can't stop driving this week haha.

[@AldermachXI]

Definitely give VR a shot. I haven't been able to go back to a screen since I got it. I have some vision issues that make the screen a little more friendly at times. But I still can't get away from the VR experience, especially in these open wheelers.

[@WhiskeyOnFire]

So James, this car is modelled with an H-pattern gearbox and you are using paddleshifters. So when you shift gears the sim uses the clutch for you. In order to avoid the "neutral lock" you can lift off the throttle while doing that initial shiift to let the revs drop and the sim engage the gear. I have a feeling it's becuase you slightly short shift and the engine just goes to limiter and the sim wont engage the gear.

[@millerboyd1287]

Such a great move at the end. Great race. Absolutely love watching you in iRacing.

[@ranger3300]

Great race JD! Some of my best races were in the skip barber, like you say lower the car in a lot of ways the better the racing. It also helps you were racing 2 other really clean drivers.

[@VelocidadeAlta]

What a battle! I'm loving your iRacing content mate! Keep pushing!

[@JDisLimitless]

Thank you so much man, keep up the work yourself 👊

[@mowvu]

really top driving jd. it's a different world on iracing and you've more than proved yasen lad! top man

[@GabPou87]

That move on the outside in the last lap is the best pass ive seen in a long time.

[@zkilertuga]

Bro this iRacing series is fire! We are enjoying so much seeing ur iRating go up so i'd only say that we would like to check final scoring board.. James you are a brilliant driver

[@earthlingtheaaron21]

Race had me on the edge of my seat. Good stuff!

[@Elvin_Martins]

Maaaannn, this is one of the BEST races i have ever seen!!! Great job, you're nailing it

[@pedrosilvaproductions]

Hey James an advice for future videos, try to get a pop shield/filter or a windscreen for your microphone. They are used for plosives, especially when you say "T's" and "P's". Due to the air you push forward. It would help you tremendously. They are very cheap. For like 10 pounds you can get a decent one. Great video as always

[@aburidhwan6277]

Last lap was just incredible

[@Joe1744]

Pronounced: Russ-Ko-gen, glad to see you back on real racing ;)

[@JackPronto]

Loved the ending! What a great race. iRacing is def the best content you put out!

[@thargor6750]

Formula cars in vr are legit... I just came from karting I can't afford anymore and the f4 is pretty raw

[@MagicMan166]

@Limitless So the going into neutral at the start issue is due to not letting off the gas when shifting up...I don't know if you use auto blip or not but that may be playing a part in it as well...I use auto blip and I've noticed the same thing when not letting off the gas long enough when shifting up. Hope that helps

[@mrhxrse]

Mr Horse approves this video

[@hunttv71]

Oh yeah, JD. Try starting in 1st gear, foot completely on the brake. Apply throttle to 30% and release brakes on green light.

[@tonymostella7457]

What a great battle! Really enjoying your iRacing content.

[@shaharburshtain4021]

Still waiting for you to do acc on LFM.. maybe even rennsport (closed beta this month)

[@simonfenix2670]

Great race man You absolutely shafted them

[@MeAndTheBoys_]

Wow. Such a good, clean race, with a lot of passion. Subscribed 🙂👍

[@LionAndALamb]

Gave them the ol' Doherty Double on the last lap, great race!

[@RhalzerHD]

Love seeing you drive at Rudskogen! Great drive and you should try drifting there. Look up Gatebil Rudskogen to see some insane driving.

[@chriskeeble]

Superb driving - great win - great race! 🙂Subscribed!

[@MeuProprioUniverso]

I'm playing the Formula VEE series too, i would say 75% of my races are pretty fun and full of adrenaline and clean racing on top of it... Add it to MUCH MUCH better FFB and driving feel... i'm not going back to f1 22 that's for sure.

[@88Renix]

Catching back up after this start is pretty awesome. Last lap put also a smile on my face ♥️

[@JochenDRS]

Best reason for a content creator to create content imo ❤

[@davemieze9021]

That last lap had Abu Dhabi vibes without handing the win to you.

[@jebwatson]

Woah the shifts on those cars are rough. Fantastic race!

[@Hadiplaysmusic]

What a race!! Love how clean these races are too.

[@christopherdavis6213]

Great to see these tight battles. If you want something between vee and f3, you should check out the USF 2000. Pretty solid community and typically solid races

[@Switch_X_Back3884]

Well fucking done mate. Absolutely Brilliant!!

[@wejhvabewjty]

perfectly timed overtake for the win, great race!

[@toastytoast1890]

Unsure if you’re the endurance type as I’ve only recently found your channel, but you should look into some of the special events for 2023. The Daytona 24 is coming up, and it’s a lot of fun to be able to do big endurance events with a team. Though, this late in the game, it’s probably not probable Also, VR is super awesome in iRacing. Typically makes me more consistent and a bit faster compared to using triples

[@moodmusicytc]

That camera placement is really nice ! Keep it :)

[@RYP3]

Put the clutch setting to auto blip you can still clutch it in as usual but it will help you so you never miss shift as what’s happening is your timing is off from when you push the clutch and click the up shift

[@jahzito4343]

nice move :D... i switched also to iRacing, its so fun to drive... but, if you want, as u mentioned your kart experience, you should try the shifter karts in automobilista 2 on one of the longer kart tracks. That's also again another level. ;)

[@MrRaphaelLippi]

It's a manual car, you need the correct rpm to shift, otherwise you will get into neutral

[@ShankerJN]

What a race, loving the iRacing vids as always

[@federcio2]

The hype you put into these races is incredible, with cars that I call "pencils with pedals". 😆 P.S: CrewChief motivates you so much in the race. I love Jim for that!🤣

[@F7R_BenWright]

Unreal race keep it up mate!

[@bikeexplorebc]

With the V, you need to slow down your upshift to 2 to stop it falling into neutral.

[@RacerX766]

Awesome James !! Superb driving !!

[@markburton3306]

Interesting to see your throttle position mid corners. Are you reacting to wheel feedback?

[@JochenDRS]

GG bro! Great race! Very clever driving as well!

[@syahmiazri4246]

Glad seeing you enjoy iracing

[@mike617]

What a race that was amazing to watch

[@markenley100]

Hi, Can you make a video on the settings you run for ACC, iracing and F1? I just bought a new moza wheel and I’m struggling to find the feeling I was used used to from my non-direct drive wheel. I have in the past used your settings and adjust from there onward especially since FFB can be so subjective. Anyways I think a lot of moza users would benefit from you making a settings video. Cheers and thanks in advance, Kind Regards,

[@bonfimer]

loving the iRacing content, keep it up!

[@hunttv71]

Hey JD, currently I'm also doing iRacing with 1.8K. I'm getting put into top split races from now and then and it would be great to race versus you. At which times do you mostly play iRacing? Awesome content by the way, you do you, and play iRacing if you enjoy it. It's way more fun having you play games where you enjoy yourself.

[@chivas604]

For the standing starts on formula vee, If I remember correctly, you need to start in first gear not N then do the usual standing start stuff like pressing down on accelerator etc. If you watch this Dave Cameron video he starts in 1st gear for the standing start: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pp-6nmuQjpWbjs0

[@worxyboi4838]

i saw a tik tok where they turn engine noise off so that all they here is the tires so they know when they are on the limit

[@JDRacing-j2v]

iracing content is GIGA

[@Thatguyumet9]

Absolutely Insane Race!

[@tony_w839]

Great racing, love watching racing and commentary.

[@husseinyatim]

Amazing race craft as always

[@knottsscary]

I raced formula vee for the first time last night and i was having the same issue with it going to Neutral

[@CJBarry55]

Notice you’re on a Moza wheelbase now. For a rocket start you need to set up a double clutch start using the APM, dunno if the Moza wheel has bite point clutch paddles on it but if so, need to set that up.

[@craigc4430]

It does. You can set custom bite points for each car

[@CJBarry55]

@@craigc4430 bingo!

[@arturkochan4649]

vee top split is a special place

[@randomdude8877]

What an awesome race, you did superb.

[@derekf2757]

Hey JD, do you think you will ever try VR in iRacing/AC/AMS2? would be good to here your thoughts on it.

[@ChrisTheMoiler]

Amazing race! So much better than F122

[@GiosSimCorner]

Hey Love your content how do you like the Moza R9 i will be upgrading from a G923 very soon and I don't know what to get?

[@JG-vo8ey]

Hey JD seems like the car snaps into neutral when you lift off clutch to quick

[@cesarmufarej9891]

amazing driving!!! these iracing are just waaaay better than f1. vee is also a blast to drive
