I'm using my real name Marc Good at iRacing. Feel free to add me to your friends list as I got all RD members added.

Looking forward to see you in a Skip or Star Mazda race!

edit: Just these days the splitting of the fields has been changed so the friend-factor won't help anymore to get together in races..

 

[Marc Good]

Thanks Ramon, gonna check it out today.

Had an awesome race yesterday. Started first and kept it there up to lap 10, when I got a network error (new router has some issues somehow) but I was still in the server sitting on the side of the track for about 20 seconds while my screen froze and went black. When my visuals were back I continued and rejoined track in 8th and 20 seconds behind on P1. From then on I pushed like hell and passed one by one and was up to P2 with 2 laps to go. I did my fastest lap on the penultimate lap but P1 was just too far ahead, almost got him just needed one more lap

Sounds awesome Sander, Silverstone seems like an awesome track to race at. Sebring Modified in the skips was awesome so far,and definitely one of the best tracks I've raced at so far. Jefferson in the skips this week is not my favorite, the track just isn't too fun for me to race on. I'm going to be buying VIR today though so I'll have some time to practice over the weekend on it, I'm hoping it's as fun to race as Sebring is.

I'm still on a D license right now so it will be a while before I'm racing the radicals even though I own the car thanks to the free month. How long are the radical races usually? 30-35 minutes is nice for the skip, but I'm excited to get in some longer races.

VIR is a nightmare in the Skippy, I think it'll be a nice track in the Jetta but it's not nice in open wheel personally.

 

[David Barry]

Thats too bad, what about VIR and the skippy don't get along?

Radical races are about 50 minutes, not too short, not too long

It's on now James!

It's on now James!

I should have run another 2 laps in that session, I was running 1:45.4xx constant but had two slower laps in there which pushed the average up. Good car/track combo

 

[Ramon van Rijn]

Woot, Won my first big field Skip Barber race at Summit Jefferson
And did some oval wins in the Legends too.... finally some nice scoring points.
Still very hard to drive/concentrate.

I tried the Mazda yesterday at Silverstone, but I was 5 seconds off the pace. Mostly because I could not get the steeringlock to my likings. Had to drive within 4 cm of wheel movement. Anyone tips?

 

[Ramon van Rijn]

Legends - Laniers National Speedway

For me a nice stable setup. Can drive it smooth and with a little drift now and again.

0.15.811 laptime for me.

 

[Simon Trendell]

Put the wheel at 900 degrees in the profiler then calibrate in game and the software will give you as much rotation as the real car has, the steering lock is fixed as it would be in real life except for a few of the oval cars.

 

[Simon Trendell]

Much happier now

 

[James Yates]

I just ran another time trial, only knocked it down by a little though as my first 2 laps were me getting used to the car again. Need to do 4 laps where I run my usual pace

Edit: Rather close to you now Simon

 

[Ramon van Rijn]

1.47.x right now, 2 seconds improved

Tried but not helped. If I choose my preferred 300 or 900, the ingame calibrations will set it indeed to reallife and a bit too twisty for me.
But I found another thing, tried the basic iRacing setup and improved 2 seconds on Silverstone GP (with a very bad lap). 2 more seconds to find, but at least I know the setup was part of my problem.

Now learning this bloody track (and the others too)

Try the advanced setup but put the rear anti roll on soft

Thanks will try that also tonight
My 1.47 was only 1 lap in which I did not crash hahaha
First tried in the Mazda.

Totally different from the skip
