GPC races aren’t always this mad (fortunately)

The penultimate lap of an enjoyable race at Adelaide:

What encoding settings do you guys use for uploading to youtube? The quality is looking really good.

I had a go and it doesn't look too bad, here is an early lap with the FTarget at Aviano. I'm still trying to dial the car in so its a bit of a handful. but it was fun and seemed to look good on the replay

 

[Péter Bártfai]

Try to do heel&toe downshifting, that'll make the car much more stable entering the corners.

I just upload the raw AVI files from Fraps (but it takes ages when uploading to YouTube).

Yeah, blip the throttle on downshifts.

Running 2nd with a lap to go, what can go wrong?

 

[Abdulhaq Elhouderi]

You lost concentration because of the guy who was going to overtake you, always happens to me

Heh, bad luck there.

BTW, where are you playing? I'd like to try an online race or two.

After running wide I shouldn’t have defended so hard & comprised my line into the Corkscrew (clipping the curb caused a lockup).

Radiator Springs Racing (a really good league with a good mix of drivers)

Trying to learn the ropes for my first club event. One of my first clean(ish) laps on Aosta

 

[Abdulhaq Elhouderi]

This is my best lap
F1600, Prato Full GP.
I know that it I could pull of one more second, the last turn and turn 3 lost me that second. Other than that, I couldn't figure out what went wrong, please give me some advice.

Although the member 'CAR' said that driving with a keyboard is not an excuse for a slow time, but I'm still convinced that a wheel plays a big role . I'm improving everyday, 3 days ago I couldn't do less than 1:55, and today; no more than 1:50 .

Sorry about the quality, my poor processor couldn't handle Fraps and netKar Pro at the same time.


Edit: I caused crashes in every race I joined because of the way I break in turn 2, in the chat, the drivers said: You shouldn't break early. I told them, Kovalainen wasn't penalised for braking too early! . Am I right? Is there any rule about breaking too early or something. I had no intention of causing an accident, I broke and the next second, every one was crashing into my car.

Rank record is 1m38.055 for this track.

Some are crazily fast...

Improving is very hard in nKpro since you can't see how others brake or use gas when watching them.

What is bad too is that when you watch someone else in one of your replays you don't here his sounds but yours... very bad bug.

There is virtually no other way for improving that training a lot lap after lap.

LFS is way better to improve your laps. Watching WR laps, with braking points is so useful...

Awesome vids guys :thumb:

Just a heads up, Vimeo doesn't allow gaming related videos, and I think they delete them without warning.

In terms of control yes, you’ll make less errors with a wheel, but keyboard/mouse players benefit from TC & ABS. So being able to brake later, and accelerate better (after the initial bogging down), can be an advantage as some players have proven. In saying all that I’ve never driven using a mouse, as the experience with a wheel’s brilliant, and better than the gamepad I used before which I was slower with.

Sorry about the quality, my poor processor couldn't handle Fraps and netKar Pro at the same time.

I have the same problem, hence the view I used in my last video Oddly the problem seems to have gotten worse so maybe free hard drive space or something's a factor.

I told them, Kovalainen wasn't penalised for braking too early! . Am I right? Is there any rule about breaking too early or something.

No, there’s no rule about braking too early, and good drivers anticipate what the car in front’s going to do. With the Kovalainen/Webber incident it was a little different, as there was no way a Lotus could have battled with a Red Bull, so there was nothing to be gained and it was all rather stupid. I think as long as you’re not braking erratically you should be ok.

You can always watch them when they're out on track (it's a good way to learn a few tricks).

That's one of my bigger problems in racing here. I simply can't brake as late as most people do. That's why I'm uneasy while running in packs, and rather move out of way, instead of slowing down the group, and maybe causing an accident :/

But, the car behind is to blame by default

Open wheelers will be even worse, I suspect. Will see where I stand this Wednesday

You’ll build up confidence, eventually moving the brake bias further back and increasing the multiplier

Open wheelers will be even worse, I suspect.

Depends, Formula Fords are tricky, but the F2000’s a lot better on the brakes due to downforce.
