[@SeaLion8488]

Thanks for posting the bad along with the good races. Always great to look back and understand what went wrong.

[@Bonzoizm]

That race was an example of what happens when you let your intrusive thoughts take over 🤣That last contact could've ended a lot worse but we take our medicine and move on

[@brockstar27]

Thank you so much for uploading this video! I have been really discouraged lately about my performance in races because I had such success early and now that I'm really getting into competitive splits I feel like a "rolling roadblock." I have had a couple of "not clear" moments and been absolutely debased over voice chat. So I watched some of your videos on settings, turned off the voice chat, installed crew chief, adjusted my monitors and am back out there! It's nice to see that even the best make mistakes sometimes!

[@Sev_Auk]

That green #21 car suffered from target fixation. I used to watch "Canada's Worst Driver" and it was amazing how many of those unbelievably horrible drivers had that specific ailment. No matter what would be thrown in front of them, they'd just drive straight at it and crash into it. I'd make sure you mark the #21 as "hazardous" in the RaceLab app :)

[@TheSnaveeelPlaysGames]

I understand target fixation, I lock up and follow a car off more times than I can count, but that can’t of been that, right? I mean they literally turned into them, they didn’t drift, they turned… why?? 😂 Watching the replays at the end, I think they thought the crashed car was going to slide to the right of the track, but realised it wasn’t 😅 Looked daft though

[@Zdman2001]

@@TheSnaveeelPlaysGames I agree. With iRacing physics, you definitely see some unrealistic bounces sometimes.

[@HazewinDog]

I never expected to hear you say "The biggest loser is ME". I appreciate showing not only the ups but also the downs though! I must say, you drove like this race marked your first flying lap on this track... the end result wasn't helped by the fact you were a bit unlucky towards the end, but I agree you seemed too distracted by less important things!

[@02stampede]

This is the best channel on KZbin for explaining race craft and thought processes during a race. I have learned a lot and greatly appreciate it!

[@davecamyt]

Appreciate that 😁

[@FATGUYRacing143]

Dave. Humble as always. Awesome to see you share these hard races. The look on your face at the “meatball” message killed me. Inspirational as usual

[@bloodbank228]

I've had a really shitty week, -240 iR right now, so this definitely helps put me in a better mindset! Thanks Dave.

[@BenAshley1977]

I did a much lower-split on this race for the first time last night, and unfortunately caused a massive wreck on T1. Watching this has been invaluable and I'll give it another shot tonight.

[@pappyracing]

Thank you Dave I've been feeling bad about my driving lately. Thank you for the therapy I feel better now.

[@stormtv23]

nearly spat my drink on my monitor with that rocky thing HAHAHA

[@steveroessel608]

Dave is Human!!!!! This is a fantastic video as it shows that racers far better than me can eat shit as good as the rest of us plebs. We've all had these races and its great that you show us it happens to you as well. Many youtubers wont post crap races but kudos to you for doing this!

[@CatchiestWorm12]

-0.99 is crazy. As someone who is constantly trying to build SR that HURTS

[@BoltzzSG]

Impeccable timing with that comment, I laughed so hard. Thank you, Dave.

[@jps072]

We all have that inner idiot.🤦‍♂️Mines bigger than most mate 😂 love the like animation on the wall. Classy touch 👌

[@TheCth777]

I also had a brutal race wrecks wise on my first zandvoort of the week. Always annoying

[@bertram-raven]

Is that Danny Rick? 😜

[@reviewforthetube6485]

This is great stuff. You felt so bad for that guy you had to follow him! Haha love that attitude we gotta stick together. I love your content, could watch it all day.

[@hunterh1033]

On voice coms right before contact and a DQ, a cult classic LOL

[@AffyKoupps]

I hope we do see races like this again! These sorts of things happen, cant always be at the front, mistakes happen. Enjoyable watch. I especially liked the Dave/Rocky in the rear view mirror

[@edwinkuipers]

Had one of my worst 'races' also on Zandvoort last year, blew up my engine at the start with some revving on the grid. The rest of the grid had a great laugh about it, I left in shame 🤪 Good video Dave!

[@MiamiSunrise]

That was very entertaining and simultaneously very brutal. I appreciate that you televised this race as I'm sure you could have just not uploaded it. I saw the cap bpm of 132 and thought this was the race that got you there but no, what was the 132 bpm from? Anyway thanks for this Dave, a good time can be made from a tough time.

[@davecamyt]

132 was from lap one 👍

[@RebelSapph]

this is why I like watching your videos, you will always post the race no matter how bad it went!

[@louisnguyen6038]

this is hilarious stuff, the dq was so random especially right after the guy on coms saying what you doing back here

[@roelg7279]

Dave I love your video's but this one is the best! Your humor is so great that carnage is turned to greatness. Thanks man!! Up to the next one

[@ggsimmonds1]

21 turned into a rabbit. If anyone has even driven country roads you'll know what I mean; they have a tendency to escape the path of your car but then jump right back into the line of danger. 21 just had a brain freeze and saw the car drifting up the track and thought oh I can dip below them and then their brain just had some lag. Use to happen to me quite a lot in ovals

[@richmurphy8337]

Enjoyed that Dave besides the mishaps. its comforting to think its not juat me having these kinds of days. just off a ferrari challenge race. spent 15 minutes in the pits after 100 meters of the race.

[@DouglasThom]

Excellent analysis. That start set the mood, and you mentioned it early on that you were too eager across the board. Many corners deep, coming up on other cars quick, and how many times did you say you were too eager or need to slow that down or need patience? Thank you for posting this informative piece!

[@logo8009]

Made me smile. As we have let things get the best of us when everything goes wrong. Thanks for sharing the bad ones also.

[@AndrewFosterSheff69]

It's like "climate change", when they only ever report the sea rises (without reporting the sea declines) one can only assume we are all going to drown. It's important to report BOTH and EQUALLY! At which point we can all begin to see these people are full of crap and we are nowhere NEAR drowning. Thanks for saving me from drowning Dave and "climate change" is a hoax! You are welcome. ;-)

[@_Don_K]

I had a race just like that last week on Barber Motorsport last week in the GT4. I actually started right behind you Dave, but wasn’t there for very long. 😊 Didn’t get DQ’ed but got and handed out some 4x’es where I could only blame myself. I feared that I would be featured on your channel in the incident review, but fortunately you put up a different race of the week 😂

[@DC_F1]

Blimey! So many of those 4x contacts might easily have been 0x! I thought I had a bad race here but now I feel like I did OK!!

[@srltv]

The feeling when you're having a half decent race and you get collected with a meatball. I feel your pain

[@karlwatson45]

I'm glad you posted that lol. We all have terrible races at some point

[@RotteTroll]

Nice to see this! I was hoping to have a good fight with you. Better luck next time! (Ferdinand Geertman)

[@davecamyt]

Great win 😁

[@jaydencreten7556]

Hey Dave, i was in this race (orange Merc) & i mistakenly blamed you for a bad rejoin which started the chain reaction of that crash! It was actually another porsche, so sorry! One of my worst races ever! Keep up the awesome work.

[@davecamyt]

You may as well add that to the list 🤣

[@jaydencreten7556]

@davecamm 😂 Have a look back at the replay, absolutely shocking rejoin- you'd see why I was fuming. Atleast I've appeared in a video I guess...

[@medalami17]

That was sooo funny!! why did the cayman ahead steer right into the merc tho

[@lluusshh]

The heart rate monitor is quite good, but can you get your blood temperature on screen as well, would love to know when it is approaching boiling point.

[@SirLagsAlot_ZA]

I was not prepared for the Rocky music....

[@tboneisgaming]

That escalated quickly. I do wonder how many calories you burn sim racing based on your heart rate. It definitely looks like a workout.

[@SteelRiverSims]

Tough one that mate 😢 I tried this combo earlier, I struggled compared to last week's pace. I might just need more track time on Zandvoort 🤷‍♂️ BOP looks good though

[@P3ktoRis]

people really struggle on this track for some reason. went to practice it today and lots of people are still on the brake when im already accelerating. rear ending people when not expecting them to still be on the brakes.

[@zondar7794]

The timing of that statement couldn't have been more perfect. Great stuff mate.

[@mortenflaten]

Good to see you're willing to expose bad races too. I'm a novice learning quite a lot from watching your channel. VroomVroom

[@Brunnen_Gee]

I've been running Ringmeister all day, so this definitely isn't the worst I've _seen_ today! 😂

[@gtifury310]

looks like green car slid left and then right on the brakes. Unfortunate, but definitely and incident. That minus .99 SR is pretty rough lol.

[@dihuth]

Put every bad things that can happen in one Race. Now the Week is safe.

[@rpcorp]

Love the slowed voice effect‼️‼️Brutal race similar to my LMP3 DQ at NordZ!! 😮

[@Laftcranz]

that sigh at 13:22 - very relatable I must say 😅

[@lowfastracing]

17:40 i don't think that guy wanted to turn to the left, i think he just braked too hard and lost control.

[@CobraAce04]

I think the Dayglo Porsche thought the Merc was gonna spear across the track and wanted to dive to the other side. You know how unpredictable iRacing's cars ping about. I can see myself doing the same. Couple that with him probably stepping on the brakes so any movement is exaggerated

[@bertram-raven]

Yes, it is possible what he could see was different to that which Dave could see.

[@tingltanglchri]

maybe onbord perspektive from the other porsche would be helpful to understand ....

[@robholmes812]

Interesting video for me, it's nice to know even the best of us have races like this 😂 However if anyone wants carnage, the Production Car challange at Snetterton 200 this week seems to be generating a lot of mess, I had a shocker last night 😂

[@simracinsam]

Ouch! That was one of those races!

[@MrMoschat]

Must’ve been my message at the start of the race that cursed it all

[@davidius74]

Laksh was trying to get you out of the race. First by brake testing you into turn 1 so that he hit him from behind and then when the other car spun, he turned into him so that he could bounce off and collect you to get you even more incident points

[@ImMIRADOR]

Ever since I've entered C class in sports car, I haven't had a single good race... it seems every race there is at least one other driver that is out to get me with shameless dive bombs or using me as a braking point. Feels good to know I'm not the only one struggling right now lol

[@investmenttudor1659]

Same experience here.

[@themtbmarshal3196]

Dave your content is awesome my guy!,!

[@virtualawakening2299]

I can't afford iRacing, but have become smitten with Le Mans Ultimate. I'm so glad I tried their early access. The FFB is magnitudes better than ACC, my former main sim. Unfortunately, I can't expect more tracks and cars then what is licenced. I really hope they allow mods like in RF2. I would even buy DLC's for more tracks and cars because LMU just feels so guuuud. It feels so much better that RF2. I can't wait for more videos from you in LMU. LMU needs more attention. 😍

[@I_Like__bananas]

Great attitude Dave!

[@notfreshey]

Brilliant impression of “famous last words” in the intro

[@ScarySquirrel]

I've only just realised that Mac Evad is Dave Cam backwards 😳

[@xenventes]

I'm new to these cars/ this race. Your pace is so good. Unlucky result I'm sure you'll put those numbers right in no time

[@smittyjones8755]

I did this race Monday night and it was good, got 6th with 0x. Ran again last night and got punted in the carousel on lap 2 and that gave me the meatball. Come out of the pits and get ran off the track right after the carousel. I hate people sometimes, well, most times lol.

[@jamieimbusch]

i often get this kind of crud in iracing. its really annoying because iracing refuses to do anything about it. they will sooner ban the victim then the offender

[@Russ-]

Wants some carnage, can’t find any so make your own. You are a very naughty boy Dave. 😂

[@mrmoyd3072]

that is an impressive loss rofl. watching the follow up next

[@AAa-v3y8z]

What a title 😂, great job with the graphics! Race labs are doing things right for sure

[@gaffified]

Poor start from the car in front, losing your position, and going off the track in the first lap, peaked the heart rate. :) And that was just the beginning.

[@AndrewFosterSheff69]

I am nowhere near your ability Dave, but one thing I do know is you can NEVER get back lost time.

[@hanswesterbeek2465]

hope you’re back for more at Zandvoort this week. It can’t get any worse :)

[@doug_vickers]

😬 Oh Dave! Any way you can blame Julie? 🤣 As always great content. 👍

[@ChristDillingerBetter]

You could have finished the race without pitting for the meatball. There were only 2 laps left. Entertaining video as always.

[@petechristofelo559]

I almost got dq for people running into the back of me

[@UnionJxck]

Need to take a much higher line

[@Billybaka]

its fun to see reality and the ones that didnt go to plan :)

[@tayloramurphy]

4x for some of those contacts feels egregious. 2x maybe....

[@johnadam5702]

I watched a video clip my 9 year old daughter filmed of me playing AM2 today, but if you say so Dave 🤣😂

[@virtualawakening2299]

"C'mon, Dave, good stuff! Keep it coming!" 😂 Is that standard iRacing??? lmao iRacing has a life coach?

[@wellsdavidj]

In the accident slowed down it looks bad, but in real time I see how the guy could have through the car was going ot keep sliding. The yellow car had a lower IR and in his races people tend to not hold the brakes and go all over the track. Once he realized the car wasn't going to keep going he just over corrected

[@seb-kun]

you have 3 or 4 laps to serve the meatball flags, so you could have finish the race without stopping I think.

[@oktc68]

Gutted for you Dave,

[@dveal229]

Well D, you are human! But seriously, thank you for sharing…

[@regibson23]

I will never understand why iracing doesn't use actual car damage to decide if it's a 4x. A 4x is defined as heavy contact. How can it be heavy contact if neither car has a scratch?

[@k-tech2937]

We all have those days, my race was in falken sports car in gt4 was over before it started due to leader suddenly braking and causing a lot of crashes behind him, which gave me 20+ min of repair :( worst thing iRacing went to maintnance after that so i literally didnt even get to race even for a lap lol

[@TheOGReeceYT]

You get a fast repair for that series. Just make sure it's enabled in your pit box and then make sure you turn off all the tyre's from being changed. You can then stop in your grid box and instantly drive away fully repaired. You only get one per race.

[@k-tech2937]

@TheOGReeceYT not for Falken sports car, you only have it for falken gt4 fixed. The falken sportscar challenge is c class, so no fast repairs

[@sparkstack]

How you getting Jim to tell you the irating of the driver in front / behind?

[@davecamyt]

It's the release candidate version of crew chief

[@gt2limited]

Not slowing down on yellow flag should become a ban for a week, too many full sends makes the game arcade not sim

[@sandcastleboy7242]

Oh dear not your finest hour or should I say Dave done on a Dutch track 😂😂😂😂

[@viscolex]

That ending was hilarious to be honest :D

[@simonolsen9995]

Ouch!

[@Nepeccel]

Just some issues! Disqual

[@emersonoshea3179]

What earphones you using?

[@andreamasiero3329]

Thanks for sharing the bad days too Dave. As for the crash with the 21 car, this time is all on you mate 😂 you went full send under a yellow flag as you said in the video.

[@MRD0889]

Yea.. zandvoort does that to ppl 😅 Sorry about the race, Dave, but hey, it's good to show ppl that shit shows are always a possibility and just try thier best to recover.

[@willianschlichting]

Dave, you're awesome

[@teklan5382]

Thanks for sharing the bad ones too! We all have these kind of races now and then and seeing that everyone has bad days just makes it easier to accept the own bad days. So as we say here: wipe off your mouth and keep going ;)

[@davidweatherston562]

Hahaha love you share these ones too

[@AWizardNeedsABeard]

I am sorry if my "Good luck everybody except for Dave" caused you this much pain mate. I wondered why you disconnected. See you in the next one! I was in the Carbon Fibre Merc - I could not get myself hooked up either.

[@davecamyt]

Haha, no this was all me 😁

[@AWizardNeedsABeard]

@@davecamyt Yeah in my defence this time - you smashed the lobby the last time I said that 🤣.

[@nemesismcc]

Oh dear, not a great day in the Dave cam camp, Team boss will be hauling you over the coals my lad for that race lol, That said, it is nice that you show the good, the bad and the downright ugly parts of your racing, some dubious stewards decisions for sure in that race.

[@frankderks1150]

That start looks suspicious to say the least car #1 blocks so that car #4 gets past , both same livery and speaking german...

[@RacingAnt]

Maybe time to go back to triples...

[@raphaelbird8165]

what are the buttons to your left that also work as a car on you left or right indicator?

[@jeremyt7722]

Button box. They're handy for seldom used, but useful key binds. Can also be used to display flags as well as cars that are beside you if you don't use radar.

[@davecamyt]

That's a Precision Sim Engineering Pro Switch Panel 👍

[@raphaelbird8165]

Thank you!

[@AlienWooshie]

I don't know about the worst race! LOL I think the 21 panicked. He probably thought originally that the car was going to go across the track, but then a combination of the crashing car righting itself suddenly, very slow reactions on his part, and it looked like he got transfixed and had that thing where he went where he was looking, until he realised he was on a collision course. Bad news for you of course. On the positive side.....CONTENT! 😀😀😀
