This car is seriously underrated! | iRacing Ringmeister | Cadillac CTS-V Racecar

[@underSTATEDexcellence]

It’s not the easiest to drive that’s why I think it’s over looked. If you can tame her she will purr.

[@mutha_fnmikey2325]

I love it

[@BCSimsport]

I have rediscovered the joys of driving this car after bailing out of it when I got out of my Rookie license.. it's such a challening car.. it reminds me of a Supercar in a lot of ways..

[@WiesiekTV]

Try upshifting before screen pops white - when you have red dots, you should achieve better acceleration.

[@Sev_Auk]

Good race Dave. I started racing the Ringmeister series a couple seasons back after watching you race the CTS-V there. Been racing the series almost every week since (buying cars I normally wouldn't bother with, haha) and it's always a good time. It's felt like coming full circle now, being back in the Caddy. Raced it three times this week so far. Victim of other people's problems on the first two, but kept out of the wrecks on the third one :) Cheers, Sev PS - I did notice the repair times on those first two races were like 30+ minutes, after the tow. Seems like any kind of hit in the front-end now and it's bye-bye powerplant :)

[@1976Cordoba]

If iRacing would improve the sound of the Caddy it would be even better. Watched them race in the old Speed World Challenge at Road America and you could hear them at T1 while sitting in Canada corner. Sounded like a NASCAR stock car.

[@RyanVRRacing]

Congratulations Dave that was amazing. That’s how it’s done well done 👍 It is a tricky car to drive especially on this series and track when you get the feeling that it wants to kill you but you can control it 😂👍

[@birdseye2239]

The Cadillac was the car that made me realize the cars that are more difficult to learn to drive end up being the most fun when you get the hang of it. Driving the Porsche Cup car after getting good with the Cadillac was also a breeze. It makes something like the GR86 super boring to drive

[@EstimateLongting]

i bought the nurburgring on iracing the other day and raced on it for the first time in a porsche GT3 the most challenging thing ive ever done in sim racing like ever honest to god

[@gnobre1399]

Focus Dave ! Everybody's allright ! Good leading race and a good combo to watch ! Thx mate.

[@rossstewart5363]

Great vid as always Dave. I envy your skill set that allows you to jump into anything. I’m 5 weeks deep in iRacing and doing all disciplines, changing from car to car is so difficult

[@gazzajx47x]

Dave, you need to bring out some merch. I think a T-shirt and Hoodie with "Not Great Not Great" and "Ohhhhh thats Bad" on it. 😆

[@Laftcranz]

i'll have an "is everybody alright?" shirt shipped to the other side of the globe then

[@gazzajx47x]

@@Laftcranz Yes!!! That was the other one I was going to suggest. 🤣😂🤣

[@artvandelay8030]

Fanatec Global series baby. They sprinkle in fwd Kias to give us something to run over. ; ) This car has ballz.

[@pennybags_9]

Love my daily dose of these videos, thanks for all the content Dave - absolute leg end

[@justinferdenzi8802]

Hey just started watching your content now that I have been on iracing for a little bit.. Great stuff! Look forward to more!

[@davecamyt]

Thanks for watching Justin 😁

[@rpcorp]

Great drive Dave!! A true Caddy clinic!!!🏁🏆🤙🏼

[@JakeSullivanART]

The Bob Ross crash, i don't think that was "an happy accident!"

[@therealpofo]

My safety rating just went down .5 today from this car. But I’m learning and back up to 2.35. Luckily so many turns to gets rating in 3 laps

[@andrewpartington7274]

What a glorious noise

[@NickParks]

Great race and quali time Dave - I’m in the high 6:50’s so a lot of room for improvement- I’d found I was losing the back end on turn in sometimes - from reading the comments I’m guessing I’m changing down too early? I’ll be rewatching this for tips! 😅

[@davecamyt]

You can use the engine to slow you down a little in the faster stuff when you have the down force, but going down to 2nd leave it as late as possible and use the brake to rotate. Pretty much downshifting just before you're about to get on the gas 😁

[@felix6675]

i finished 4th place. you were too fast for this split. great job❤

[@AndresRodriguezGuapacha]

@20:00 Dave: "A bit better, not great".... Gap grows from 3.2 to 4.2 in the next few corners 😳

[@Stu_Murph]

I'm alright Dave 😮

[@MrSphinxster]

Thijs is pronounced "tice". Ring always fun to watch!

[@davecamyt]

Legend, thank you 😁

[@elendal]

Relaxed ;-) Good race.

[@timbrown4928]

Great race!

[@timroden6617]

A 99. Good job on the race.

[@leucetius8351]

Enjoying the content, Dave.

[@Killerafroman]

Sounds so good!

[@_rnzr]

the hardest thimg for me in this car is the downshifts, the front wheels do weird things when downshifting

[@CatchiestWorm12]

Yes, you can't downshift too quickly or you'll spin up the rears and lock the diff

[@vikingpsg]

You seem to have a tendency to apex a little too early for the last bend onto the Dottinger. You'll probably benefit from a slightly later apex especially that particular bend. Other than that, good stuff! 👍

[@davecamyt]

It's the fear of the grass on my left 😁

[@OldguyChris]

I love this car at monza

[@ilzee_vk]

This is difficult enough that I have to skip ringmeister this week - I just dont have the time to practice it and also my other regular series, not while I have a day job :D

[@davecamyt]

I don't blame you. It took me quite a while to get around in one piece 😁

[@fommil]

I'm surprised that you don't keep driving until the last car passes the line to grind the SR since you always try to retain that A Class.

[@davecamyt]

I would, but I'm usually bursting for a Slash Gordon 😁

[@ehlrobbo]

@Dave Cam do you reckon scrubbing the tyres before the start does anything? I don't do it, but see many do. Just wondering...

[@davecamyt]

Yes I think it helps a little but it's very rare that I do it 👍

[@Kpaxlol]

There's noo way the back slides so easily irl.

[@notdreadyet33]

I love this car, but man it seems like they have the steering wheel extremely low. To get it to match, I've got to really obscure my camera. It's like it has a weird scan

[@DOWN200TOWN]

my first three races I didn't even make it past FlugPlatz

[@CatchiestWorm12]

This car has the most useless ABS and especially traction control I've ever experienced, it seems like unlike in the GT3s, where they assist the driver, in this car it's to prevent a crash

[@MLeeder53]

Love this car! May I ask how you get the sound from the computer into the camera?

[@davecamyt]

Not sure what you mean?

[@MLeeder53]

@@davecamyt nvm! lol screen capture. Just thinking of doing some POV with my new rig this winter. but wana get the sound to my gopro.

[@davecamyt]

@@MLeeder53 ah, I see what you mean. When I did that I would capture my face on OBS with the mic and game sound and sync it later in the edit with the GoPro footage 😁

[@real_Zuramaru]

auto blip good advice too lazy to manually blip to downshift

[@Kpaxlol]

Why is the wheel so down? How do u set up this camera 🤣

[@davecamyt]

My wheel on the rig pretty much lines up with the wheel on screen 👍

[@HA_racing]

100k subscribers before 2025?

Noooo, think it's a way off yet 😁

[@arturkochan4649]

it has no abs, dave. i locked up many times

[@davecamyt]

I'd definitely does have ABS 👍

[@David_Pinilla]

is he using auto clutch?

[@davecamyt]

I have auto blip on. I'm not running a clutch right now on the rig 👍

[@johnnybanana8004]

for some reason, when i drive this car it does not allow me to downshift. weiird bcuz i can drive every car normaly. anyone have a idea?

[@davecamyt]

You have to either manually blip the throttle or turn on auto blip 👍
