Aw shucks guys!
You got C race! GT3! Nurb 24h! Get an alt goin and jump in, the waters fine!
If you don’t make the mistake of bunching up refusing to give an inch rubbing doors and use the line and marker aids and tcs and abs it’s a hoot!
It’s not one where you will have success driving like an impatient child!
In one last night I had so much fun. I just watched the replay. A driver in a 458 Italia succumbed to the m6 on the GP track but hung on for about a third of the lap on the ring before spinning off losing control.
I noticed on replay he was clearly on wheel, had very good resolution of inputs and was running tcs off ABS OFF. So probably a self important Sim rig hotshot or something.
I went in car for him on replay and watched as my m6 took his inside fair and made the overtake, what was hilarious was all his sliding! He was sawing away at that wheel catching the car all over, so many inputs.
Seeing his in car compared to mine in the m6 was such a stark contrast!
I had ABS weak (lc brake so...) but everything else default all line aids on.
I was just smoothing it like being out on a Sunday drive, just trying to stay to the line and get on power early on exit at the key points.
It was funny to me. This guy fought so hard trying to control that Ferrari and finally he just lost control hit the wall and his car disappeared like he optioned out.
I feel like people look at GTS differently.
Some are stuck in this old school turn off aids mentality but I swear to God it’s very rare I run across anyone that can actual do no tcs etc and be consistent under pressure. The guys here who do the no aids thing are definitely not average or above average, these are truly exceptional players who can win top split FIA etc.
99 percent of drivers copying them are doing imo the WRONG thing in terms of fun safety rating, lack of frustration etc.
that’s jmo.
C race is fun but you have to stay within yourself imo.
I know for me I’m not an expert on the course, but with the modern tech and a forgiving stable car and aids on it’s really fun...
I’m NOT rooting my own horn as far as beating people, to me it’s about FUN!
Maybe drive not at 100 percent speed.
Maybe try aids on and run at 80 percent, just sayin.
I just feel like Chandler here. He’s the best surfboard shaper on the North Shore. He built a big wave gun for Burkhart...
Burkhart is an egotistical guy who thinks he can hot dog the worlds most powerful waves but Chandler knows better...
I’m just saying, yeah tryin to hot dog a 911 or Ferrari or Mcclaren GT3 is fun but in race amidst distraction and contact and the errors etc etc etc...
I can’t use those, they cause way too much frustration in race. Sure hotlap or. qual occasionally but those scalpels require very very precise inputs or it’s just frustrating.
I mean speaking for myself as a guy whose played a lot, uses good peripherals, built my own rig, studied Ross Bentley, raced top split FIA before in NA....
At some point it doesn’t matter if I am a C or B on a track like Nurb 24 or wherever.
I always have more fun with a car I can control, racing within myself at 80 percent..
Everybody has fun their own way but for me I just have more fun staying conservative and knowing when to back out and avoid trouble.
Of course this is all jmo.
I’ll be in the Edelbrock equipped M6 dark blue flake with green trim this week.
Hope I see some of yous out there!
C race is fun!
I am hoping we will start from the scratch.
