Its a new season and a new place to talk about iracing! What is everyone’s plans? I have been racing ir04 for the last few season so I’ve decided to switch it up and try gt4 in the Merc. Its taking some getting used to the much bigger vehicle and I keep instinctively pressing my tear off button but I’m having a lot of fun
I want to get into the gt4’s really bad but want to test drive them first, just need to find the time. I’m on an oval kick as of recent (past season and this season) I think I’m going to stick to the gen4 cup mostly and cup/xfinity series with a bit of the ir18 mixed in for fun. It’s my first season with the gen 4 and I’m having a blast on Michigan this week I’m not the best road racer, maybe next season I’ll work more on the GR86 and then spring for the gt4 if I can improve
I can’t figure out how to drive the Cayman. I will think I have it figured out and then just massively understeer with no real idea why.
GR86, formula Ford, maybe the occasional TCR or Miata race. Just depends on what’s available that week to me and what I feel like. I gave up the grind.
I haven’t raced the gr86 yet but it looks like a lot of fun, I should try it out this season. I really want to like the TCR since I love watching the real cars race, but am so slow in them.
Trailbraking. It won’t turn without it.
Yeah I guess I’m not as consistent with that as I think I am. Thanks
It may not be a consistency issue; it may literally be you are used to downforce cars OR front-engine-RWD cars. Do some practice sessions on the test track and see if you can feel the difference. :)
I am very used to front engine RWD cars in game and IRL so that piques my interest. I’ll definitely give it another go and keep the weight distribution in mind – Thanks!
Any luck with the Cayman?
you tried decreasing your brake bias? it might help with understeer.
