iRacing Pontiac Solstice Rookie Lime Rock Park battle

[oph5pr1n6]

I'm loving this game! I used to play Forza and F1 2011 on the 360 but I got tired of being wrecked. iRacing is a totally different experience. Nobody crashing me and I have not yet seen a full field wreck in turn 1! Gotta love the safety ratings.

would a logitech driving force gt steering wheel be any good for iracing?

[shupop]

@marki61422 it works. but G27 or Fanatec will be better if you want clutch pedal.

Was that suppose to be a block? I still can't figure out that 1st corner. What ever distance I have on vehicles I lose it right there in turn 1. I've been in the low 105s but I know I can make up an extra second in that turn . Iracing is an awesome experience, I love the realism. I just wish it wouldn't take me so damn long to figure out my way around a track.

[shupop]

@frogger0528 i think its ok.

yep his movement to close the door was bit late but barely ok.

because i did not move inside yet and his movement was once.

anyway, i had confidence in him and we enjoyed that race! thats all :)

but you should not move late if you dont have confidence in other person.

there are some offensive reviler drivers...

[shupop]

.. Sporting Code tells we should not have any blocking ..

[guarana80]

I like Lime Rock. It's a good short fast flowing track.

[RichieW]

I'm in love with this track... preferably the chicane route.

only on day 2 of my iRacing account.. well worth the bucks.

Good vid, seems like you stayed in 4th after the first couple of turns, I was wondering what everyone else was soing, I can only get 1.08 but I try to stay off the gas and stay in third most of the time but Ill give this a shot. Do you slow down at the 1 sign? I usually slowed at the 3 sign. Thanks

[shupop]

3 or 2 maybe. but i think accelerating fast would be important more than late braking.

[gameduct]

Fastest i ever did was 1.06. But i am getting faster every time. watch the fastest drivers replay and see how they do it. It helps a lot

at 2:52 ...I was so into the video that I was pressing some buttons to see where the opponent go o_O

[robnob2]

No it's not R-factor, and why shouldn't a solstice sound similar to a Miata? Oh, and if you are Andy BettEncourt, you don't even know how to spell your own name... Oh... and you're GAY..!! lol

[kasmir899]

Lets see because miatas are japaneese and fucking solstces are gay fucking american cars. Youre a nigger nobass you cant even spell my name shihead.

[robnob2]

well the miata is a 1.8L 4 cylinder 160ish BHP and the Solstice is a 2.0L 4 cylinder 170 ish BHP. One is a Gay ass jap car and the other is a gay ass yank car. So they are basically the same thing and with a loud pipe will sound very similar - farty and shitty.

[vettedude418]

wow look at mr.racer over here calling a hairdressers car better because its japanesse..lying about a career is bad but being a big headed ass is extremly funny

[Bahger]

I get 1.06s. Got my first iRacing race at LRP this weekend. Wish me luck!

[shupop]

reminder: less incidents > speed

good luck ;)
