My latest race.

Grand Am at Infineon Raceway - Long
b_series_grandam.jpg


infinion.png


My qualify time was 1:25.789 and it put me as number 2 on the grid. Race started with pedal to the floor, but it was all clean. I held my position until the first time on the twisted area on the "back straight" where I missed my turn in and hit the brake way to late. So I was out shoveling some sand and lost positions a long the way.

When I was back on track and back at race pace I was down to 5th position and had to calm down. No one was hit during my little safari over the sand, but my car felt strange after it. So into the hairpin corner I had to be a bit more careful. The steering wheel felt very lose compare to what it usually do so it was clear to me something had happened to my car.

My pit crew didn't bug me about it and no black flag was shown so I though, ok lets drive with it and see how I do.
The car actually didn't feel that bad, but hunting down the leaders wasn't on my mind at this stage, the car was not good enough to brake late so I lost quite a lot in corners where I had to brake hard. So the last hairpin and the double apex hairpin on the other side of the track I lost track position to the others. But I manage to outrace the guys behind me on the rest of the track. I had to brake quite hard into the mountain climb corners, but it seemed the guys behind me wasn't very confident in section 1.

So I build up a lead of almost 3 seconds and then I did a mistake in the hill climb section. Corner 2 is a tricky hidden corner and I went on the trottle a bit to early so I moved some more sand. I managed to return to the track in front of the guys behind me, but the 3 second lead was down to 0.8Sec

The car felt even worse now, but I adapted to the car and tried push it as hard as possible, at this time I actually got back to 4th position as someone upfront had been fighting to hard and had to spend time in the pit. But Eric Miller was harder to outrace now. Car felt very lose under braking and the steering wheel felt almost like the front wheels was off the ground. Very lose!

But I manage to keep Miller behind me and after 10-12 laps I manage to make a gap down to him. And in the middle of this somewhere 3rd place guy pitted said thanks for the bump and I could pass.. Bump was not from me so maybe it was the 2nd place guy that was out. I'm not sure as I was very occupied driving my own car. But now I was on third.
I could not really gain on the two guys up front so I though to my self, let's focus on driving consistent and maybe I get this third place. The gap to Miller actually increased because he was now driving defensive against Jason Dunfee.

Dunfee actually gained on me after he passed Miller, but I was luckier than him when lapping cars so I managed to keep him off my back. I would be a easy target if I let him close enough to do a overtake attempt in the corners you could out-brake some one as I had to brake early due to my rather broken car.

This stayed this way until it remained 4 laps and between corner 2 and 3 I found the race leader in the sand and I passed him. I actually thought it was a car that was a lap down so I wasn't really ecstatic about it. But then my spotter said, next car is the leader. And I was W00t, and when passing the start finish line my spotter said. Your back in second position.. I had go away from F3 and check F1 to see how long do I have to keep him off and it was less than 5 minutes. (Not really sure what the clock said.. I just saw a small number of minutes) And from there I actually manage to pull it off.

Second place to me and I'm really happy about it.

Congrats on 2nd place Erik, a great come from behind race. The winner of the race is in my division (7) oddly enough, those points bumped me out of 1st place into second, although I haven't raced Infineon yet. I am sure if you didn't drive through the beach a couple of times you would have won, seeing that you are division 4 and Robert division 7.
 
Well Robert is a fast guy, he chased me pretty hard on Daytona as well. Divisions isn't that decided on iRating. My iRating is constantly moving up so I guess my iRating isn't what it could be.

Might be the case for Robert as well. But it wasn't that many seconds up to him, so maybe I could have won.

But being on the first row is harder than midpack. Your the first guys to lap people, and sometimes lapped people looks like they give you room and then slam the door in your face. And they seem more prepared when being nr 4-7 to lap them than the first guy.

So I think it's speculation anyway. It was a very good race and everyone in it (at the end) was very pleased with the race. Well except for
Jason Dunnington who lost the lead and ended up third. But he still said it was one of the best races he did so it was a fun race to be part of.

nice to see you doing good erik, nice 2nd place.. ill b joining soon 2, we could race again after a long time...👍

I was in that Daytona race with you and Robert and Rodney Wofford who is very fast as well. Michael Melvin placed 1st and you were 2nd, Robert 3rd and Rodney Wofford was 4th, I placed 5th. Only the top 4 were on the lead lap however. I don't know how Robert Northway can be placing 1st and 3rd and remaining in division 7. I don't understand how that works, I always thought your lap times in previous races moved you up or down the season prior.

As far as lapping drivers let me give you my perspective. When I see a faster car approaching I first look at how far behind me he is, then I look to a place where he might pass. Remember in the DP, I too am traveling at a high speed. On the straights I am going 176 MPH, A faster driver usually can't catch me on the straights so it's in the corners. Would the bus stop be a good place to pass? No, of course not. :)

Even though I see a faster car coming, I'm not going to pull over and stop so he can pass. There are 3 or 4 cars that are on the same lap as me, so I can not slow down for a faster car to pass me, it's up to the faster car to safely pass me. I know it might seem like the slower car is deliberately trying to slow you down, I can assure you I don't do that. When I see a faster car coming and no one else is near I will make it easy for him to pass me.

That race at Daytona I received a lot of thank yous from the lead racers for making it easy for them, like I said though, if someone on the same lap as me, racing me for a spot, then I race my race regardless if a faster car is behind me. I am sure you can understand my position. If I can make the top 5 against much faster "B" and "A" licensed racers I am very happy.

I messed up on the last turn at Daytona and fell back to like 16th place early in the 80 minute race but I then got into a good rhythm and worked my way up into 5th place. That was the funnest race in iRacing I ever had.
 
Actually yes the divisions go by irating. They only change your division at the beginning of the season. So for example you start the season with a 1500 irating in division 5 and through out the season you get your irating to say 2500 you would still be in division 5 until the end of the season.

Well I did not mean it that way my friend, I raced you twice and both times I lapped you. You weren't the easiest person to pass, but you were pretty predictable and I wouldn't expect anything more from you. But some less skilled people looks like they give you room by going extremely wide into a corner and slow down early and when you go for it they slam the door as if they had bad race craft and actually raced you.

I know the sporting code for iRacing say about it and in multi class I always respect the mustangs to keep their racing line, but they are easy to pass you just have to wait for the pass sometimes. But you can easily pass them on most straights around a track.
Cars in the same class I think the rules should be a bit different. In the real world you get a drive through penalty really fast if you ignore it and to make a safe pass to a slower driver in the same car, straights is often hard to do it.

But you were not in my mind when saying what I said about lapping cars. But there are a lot other guys out there I lap and some of them can be a pain to pass as they act really unpredictable.

The first times you got lapped I heard people say thank you to you, but I decided to mute the voice as it got so much talking over it I got distracted. So I might have missed some of it ;)

I also get lapped and I actually pull over and let go of the throttle just enough to let them through. Or I go on voice and say I will brake early for next corner so they can go for the overtake and easy get it. I might lose some track position to the guys that are on the same lap as I am, but it never seem to have hurt me.

I just try to be predictable, no sudden moves and make it easy for them to pass me. So yes I even make it more easy than you, but like I said you were not one of the guys I had in mind.

Thanks Jason, that straightens that out. So just thinking out loud, would there be any sandbagging going on as far as low iRatings? Would some people lower their iRating to get into a lower division? I know last season I was in division 8 and I have improved my iRating this season and moved up to division 7. Yet guys that are way faster are in division 7 beating guys from division 4.

I understand what you are saying Erik about slower drivers. I know I am not as fast as you and as matter of fact there were racers behind me from the Daytona race that were faster then me, but I don't give up and quit if I slide off the track on lap 6 like some of them did. The last 2 times I raced with you I finished 5th both times and you had a second and a 3rd I think?

For me I try to work with my strengths and forget about my weaknesses. I think in that Daytona race I was the lowest license yet I had a top 5 finish. I do understand you were not talking about passing me specifically and occasionally I pass other guys and do understand what its like to pass slower cars.

Erik I would say you are one of the cleanest racer I have raced with, in fact both times it was pleasurable racing with you. I couldn't catch you but it was still fun. :D

I started my Grand Am experience with a C-licence, and it was the perfect place for me to start. Mostly very good racers with a lot of respect for their fellow racers. I have had fun from day one in this series.
I also got good results as the fight for the top places are very hard so I seen a few top spots get blown away with incidents. Coming from behind to have avoided the incident and gain a few spots was rather fun and a good way to boost my SR and iRating. I've beaten people in Grand Am that have a qualify time 2 seconds faster than me. Fast doesn't help if you cant finish :scared:

So if your able to finish the race do so, you never know whats going to happen later in the race. Most of the times nothing happens, but sometimes your luck rely on others bad luck.

Wow very nice to read things like this, I try my best to respect everyone around me and that someone actually notice it and feel this way is very nice to read. All I can say is that I try to keep it up 👍

I just don't understand how I came first with a lower average lap:odd:
 
Starting position. P2 had to travel an extra 20ft or something for the full race distance.
 
Ah right okay 👍

Yeah you could sandbag if you wanted of course. If you have a lower irating starting the season you would be in a lower division and you could run your 2 races or whatever a week for your championship in one car and drive another to gain irating so then with a higher irating in a lower division you will score more points in races. I don't know if people would really go through all that trouble to win a lower division championship or not but it happens just by accidence pretty often I'm sure. I could see it happening with new guys starting out the season with a lower irating and building it up through out the season.

As far as people in one division being faster than people in a higher division that's really just hit or miss. If someone has a higher irating but don't play much they will be in the higher division by default but could not be that good since they haven't played in awhile or for whatever reason. I don't think you can really judge how fast someone is by what division they are in. You can somewhat judge by irating. I know guys and have friends that don't have all that high of an irating cause they just mainly race leagues and hosted races that are fast as hell then some guys can have a really high irating and not be all that fast because they built it up doing rookie and lower level races.
 
I just gave iRacing my first try! It was quite difficult to transition from GT5 to iRacing; the force feedback and the braking are way different. If you spin in iRacing, it's way more difficult to recover compared to GT5. Consequently, I was stuck with the MX-5 Cup, because I kept on spinning the CTS-V Race Car.

Onto my latest races... I did two Nvidia MX-5 races, finishing in 5th out of 11 for the first race, and 7th out of 12 for the second race. Both times I managed to get black flagged for cutting (the penalty system is extremely stringent on two wheels on the track at all times). I'd say my performance was better in the second race, despite the worse result. Still, it was extremely fun, and it'll probably be hard for me to play GT5 knowing iRacing is here. I have to say though, I think GT5 has helped me dramatically to play iRacing. Presumably, iRacing for me, without GT5's help, would be like my first time on GT5 with a G27; having trouble cope with FFB, having trouble shifting, having trouble drive accurately, having trouble, just driving.
 
If you're getting black flags for cutting the course by trying to be fast, you need to realize there are few places where getting off the tarmac will do you any good here.
 
SRF race last night.

I haven't won a race for over 2 years. I'm in the lower split, 10 drivers in the race but I'm on pole and am predicted to win the race. This is my race. Keep it clean and tidy, hit all those apexes and I'm going to win.

Lights are displayed.

Lights go red.

Off I go!

Oh no!

I hit the brakes, I've only moved a car length or so, but a second or two later the expected black flag, stop and go, message appears.

Lights go green.

I lead in to the first corner but my mind is elsewhere. I decide to pit for my penalty after the second lap but during that second lap I drop down into third as I've lost all concentration.

I pit. I spend unnecessary time in the pit getting new tyres I don't need.

Out I come in 10th - dead last.

Over the next couple of laps I see lots of people pitting, must have been an accident or two, and so I find myself in 4th 10s or so behind 3rd.

I spend the rest of the race catching up 3rd place, he's slower in the twisty bits but equally fast in the place that matters down the start/finish straight. I can't find a way past.

2nd to last corner of the race and the man in 3rd spins, I graze his car as I swerve onto the grass to avoid him and then I graze the wall as well but my car is still going and I get over the line to inherit 3rd place. Yeah!

Fun race. But... If only I hadn't jumped the start...

What a coincidense!

Yesterday (SRF @ Limerock) I was placed in first row on the grid for the very first time. And I also had a jump start! I just could not believe because it was due to faulty CSP's! They lost calibration of the clutch somehow. I was surprised because it was not my first race this evening and before they worked fine. So when I selected the first gear during red light, I started moving, beacuse clutch was only at ~75%. What a disappointment :guilty:

Until I can figure out what's wrong, I have to change back to my T500 pedals...
 
Mustang at Watkins Glen

Started 15 out of 24 (Didn't qualify..) and was just planning on taking it easy and boosting up my safety rating, making up what positions I could without risking anything. Turn 1 I make up 2 positions from cars running wide, then through the esses a crash involving several cars happens, so I slow down, and work my way through it safely. Then on the straight before the bus stop chicane, 2 cars crash into each other, one is off to the left, one off to the right, so again I slow down, just as I do the car on the left accelerates into the middle of the track to attempt to turn around and myself the person running behind me are involved.. on the positive side I've been having some fantastic races lately, with the exception of this one..
 
First win in the Spec Racer Ford at Limerock tonight :)

Started 3rd, 2nd place jumps the start so he serves his penalty next lap around, moving me up to 2nd. I'm now chasing down 1st place. I put the pressure on for the first few laps and on lap 3 he clips a curb and spins. Another car catches up to me and stays about a second behind me for the next few laps, and then I start to pull a nice gap. Fun race, love the Spec Racer :)
 


Managed to stay on the lead lap and finished mid pack. Was a tough hour behind the wheel though. I left the heater on and was also a little overdressed , felt like a real V8SC cockpit by the last 5 laps ! :scared: :scared:
 
Fun race, love the Spec Racer :)

Have to agree with that, the SRF is great fun - I'm so pleased it is back on its own with a bigger variety of tracks to run on. I have 100% content and an A road license but am running the SRF this season.
 
Might be, because I am still a iRacing beginner. But I find this vehicle terrible to drive. The races with the Spec Racer almost ruined my promotion to C-Licence (which will happen next Monday) Therefore I stopped racing it. I just can't get the right feeling for this car. As a result safety rating is decreasing :-(
 
nVidia Cup: Good battle with a car that was 1 second a lap slower then me but very dangerous and surprinsilgy goood at defending. Came 4th.

Slow in fast out is the best advice I've ever gotten about how to drive it, once you figure it out it's fantastic fun, just don't get to comfortable, that's when it'll bite.
 
My last races i had to dive in the pits to let everyone go becaus my little brother took my steering wheel whit both hands. the next race i couldn't whitdraw from the race becaus my subscription ended.
what a waste of time and irating.

To me its one of those cars where you're best making sure you get the braking out of the way in a straight line and then ensure you are on the throttle through the corner.
The car tends to loses the back-end if you lift off the throttle so its all about managing the weight transfer.

Alternatively you can think of it as just a big go-kart - lots of rear bias but loads of grip if you get on the throttle nice and early and use the steering to control the car.

Its a great car for learning rear-biased setups and how to get faster with unstable setups. The vast difference in braking points, turn-in and then the lines you take make it a nice challenge.
 
I just did one of my most excited races so far.

The whole week i am struggling to do 3 fast laps on Infineon raceway in the RileyMk XX prototype. Last race i did 35 rounds whitout a single mistake...
There were not many cars in the race, however i had a great battle for second place the whole race, chasing the same car. It was intresting becaus i was sleightly slower on the first part of the track, but faster on the last part. the S turns are awesome if you feel confident whit the car. I tried to overtake after the esses at the braking zone of the hairpin. but came each lap to short. In the last lap i did take a bit more risk, i was closer then before and the other car waves to the left, and i..well i dived anyway on the left inside but i locked my brakes and ended into the tyre-barrier-wall in the inside of the hairpin.
I kinda got stuck in it and i dropped to 5th in the last lap.:ouch:
But i don't care it was a blast of a race. :)

Not so professional though. Doing a perfect Alonso-like race and use a Maldonado-Attack to finish it. :dopey:

Maybe i had a dejavu, i won a race in the last lap day before. To much confidence is not always a good thing.
