And now you know what you didn't know! ๐Ÿ˜

Yup, this is the way! With downforce cars in general you can start with very high brake pressures, but have to lift off as the downforce decreases.

Trail braking is super useful to learn too.

I like to think of a tyre as having 100% of grip. When you're turning, it uses so much grip, as does accelerating a braking. You can 100% turn, but not change speed, or you can 100% accelerate or brake and not turn.

The hard part is turning and accelerating or braking at the same timez say 40% turning, 60% braking. Each car, track, setup, conditions combination has a different feel for this so it's a constant learning experience. It's managing this which really separates the normal guys like me and the aliens.

Deserved.

I'd like to see him control his emotions more now. If the captain is visibly frustrated that will fill down to the rest of the team.

Yup. Health is the most important thing you can have.

Keep pushing, you'll find your pace :)

What are you struggling with most?

FODMAPs are pretty well understood. There aren't any in meat.

I have a disease which limits what I can eat, therefor the ability to digest any food or drink comfortably.

Fucking cunts. That is all.

If I raced 3 or 4 times a week, then I'd pay for iracing for sure. It has all. The content I'd want to keep me entertained.

As a dad with a full time job and a family who apparently want to see me regularly, I'm lucky to hit the track once or twice a week.

I really should run a poll to see how many people run the different sims. I've never tried AMS1/2, but I always hear good things about it.

Cheers, thanks for the tip!

Seen you've improved to a 19, nice work!

I suspect that there's a 2:16 in this car for the aliens out there. Whether I get time to try and improve I don't know. Hopefully!
