SimracingSetup-Guide.comWe are already in the 3th month of 2021 and soon the GT3 championship is about to start with SRVN.NL.
Our team is getting ready for this comming out in the Corvette GT3, Radical GT3, Bentley GT3 and BMW M6 GT3 Cars! Ofcourse we will be using the tooling provided to create the fastest setup possible!
A good seating position is crucial for getting faster, because you can sit for longer in the same position, you can also put on the same fast laptimes while your energy level stays constant!
Always make sure you have set the correct Force Feed Back (FFB) settings. If they are set too high you will be clipping. Clipping is when the FFB sends no detailed information on the wheel because it is hitting a maximum threshold. In some sims it is possible to enable a plugin that will visualize any clipping. If the FFB is set too little you will also have less feeling on what is happening wich will also result in problems controlling the car.
Search the internet for guides for your wheel and game.
If you are able to finetune these settings you will get faster and more consistent.
Typically new racers or novice racers that get to a new track are eager to get that super fast lap in from the start.
Just remember faster is not always giving you a faster lap.
Especially while cornering. Slow in, fast out is the trick. Start your first laps with a lower corner turn in speed. And try to go out faster instead.
Most of the time you overdue while entering the corner, wich will result in missing apex or going wide on the exit because of all the understeer you experience.
For example, start with the porsche. That car will teach you from the start that entering the corner will have to be slower then any other car.
What regulary happens is that people are not commited to the throttle. For example; when you enter a corner all the way down to apex and into applying more power again exiting the turn a lot of simracers are releasing the throttle slightly, coasting, and get back into more throttle again.
This teaches us that you are not using the right corner speed, applying too much throttle on the exit or using a wrong setup. If you apply throttle exiting a turn you keep it. If you do release and re-apply you may upset the cars behaviour. The body may want to roll and the dampers may rebound again.
So make sure you are committed with the throttle!
After going live with the setup problem guide the new setup develop guide is also live. Where the problem tool helps with specific issues, this setup develop tool can support you with the creation of a new from scratch setup.
Both the tools are very usefull for every simulation game you play. Wether this is a console game or pc game.
So for now, enjoy the guides and continue on going faster!
Have you ever seen the A-TEAM? Who is driving the car? Yes it is B.A.
Go watch youtube and see how he drives a car. It is insane. The steering input B.A. gives while driving the car is too much. Even on the straights he is putting a lot corrections to the cars steering.
In simracing you will have to try to steer as less as possibly needed. So when exiting a corner, let the wheel move to its neutral position instead of putting force on the wheel so that it can not turn fast enough to its neutral position.
Also when cornering try to steer in one line instead of making corrections while turning. This will make the car more stable.
The new Setup Develop Guide is almost done. Currently sitting on 80% before it will be published here very soon!
Sneak preview; with this setup guide you are able to create a new setup from default!
Come back soon to check it out. In the meanwhile, check out the Setup Problem Guide wich had been released earlier.
Driving with assists seems the way to go when simracing. That is actually not the case. Make sure you turn off stuff like brake and steer assists.
Also try to learn a track with the ideal line disabled. Or if you are not known with racing at all try to turn it off as soon as possible.
What you should not disable are the traction control and abs. These two are specific setup settings and make a big difference on the cars handling.
