Thanks! Yeah I realized after I put this out I had it backwards lol I think I have it corrected In my newest video and my upcoming ones as well but it does tend to trick my brain a bit so I probably need to double check lol

@@costangracing awsome edit work

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it! I’m probably blanking out on something but what is LFS?

Nvm I just saw where you found out what was happening lol

Yeah I was at an absolute loss until then lol I’m lucky I even noticed honestly cause that was not on my list of possible issues lol

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Funny enough I never originally planned on making these style of videos but I’ve had such a good time with them that they’ve become the bulk of what I work on lol

Oh man that’s really cool! You must really have that place dialed in! I wanna say the very first track that I tried oval on was Langley though I’m not 100% sure since I don’t know most of the Oval tracks super well yet but if that is the one I’m thinking of it was an absolute blast! Very chaotic but very fun lol

Honestly, I’m always pretty scared to race it too! lol it’s one of my absolute favorite tracks but every time it’s on the schedule I have to mentally prepare myself for all of the crashes that inevitably happen lol funny enough I actually think races were easier in the rain as crazy as that sounds lol

Thanks man! That’s good to know about the tires too cause I’ve been very unsure about how to manage them well lol

@costangracing no prob, it took me a little while to figure it out. I joined iRacing because of oval racing, so have learned a lot in the year I've been on the service. Anyways, enjoy your Arca race! That's the next oval series you're gonna have to join to move up to C License! :D

I’m so pumped to give that a go! I have a feeling it’s gonna be amazing and also quite chaotic lol

Thank you so much! I did technically have a channel in my early teens for a few years where I would post guitar and piano covers but they were pretty rough quality wise lol I basically just recorded with my phone and posted with no editing or sound mixing in sight lol it was a lot of fun though

@@costangracing Then you have my utmost respect for not making videos better step by step but taking your time to deliver high quality from the get-go! 😃💪🏾 (INFJ? 😄😄😄)

Really appreciate the kind words! Just out of curiosity is “INFJ” the personality profile thing?

@@costangracing Yes, it is 😄

I will say I’d never heard of it until I looked it up but funny enough it did sound quite a bit like me lol

Also, a Tri-Oval is a type of oval track defined by what the curve on the front stretch is which is also named the “Tri-Oval”. It’s a type of un-numbered oval turn called a dogleg that is characterized by being much more defined than most doglegs and giving the track its on that distinct tri(angle) oval shape. Talledega and Daytona have extremely pronounced tr-oval doglegs but on smaller tracks, such as Las Vegas, the dogleg is noticeably rounder. This is not to be confused with actual triangular ovals such as Pocono, Trióvalo Internacional de Cajititlán, or Lausitzring which all have 3 turns as opposed to the other’s 4 + dogleg/tri-oval.

Hey thanks for writing all of that out it’s hugely helpful! I suppose that would explain why the track felt so incredibly massive lol the stock car things makes way more sense to me now. It’s always confused a bit lol

Oh ok that makes sense. I just looked up some layouts of the these tracks and now I see what exactly what you’re talking about. I didn’t even know that had different kinds of oval tracks until now

100% lol it was a crazy good time! Even if they were unofficial like this one was I’d still hop in every week for a race or 2. It’d be cool if they put all kinds of cars in there too like GT cars or maybe some LMPs lol

Hey thanks man! Can’t wait to see the window in window stuff I bet that’ll look pretty good! And yeah VR on this particular race was ESPECIALLY fun lol As for the cockpit it is a next level racing GT-lite pro. They also have a cheaper not pro version of it. I had to go with this one because I’m really low on space and it also folds up but it works really quite well. It squeaks REALLY bad though lol I’m running a ton of audio processing to try and get rid of it on the mic but you can still hear it a bit. It’s not rock solid stability wise but it’s 100% good enough for me to comfortably run until I can get some more space for a full rig lol

Hey thanks so much! Had a lot of fun making it!

Thanks so much! I’m still myself trying to figure out where to go from here too lol I’m sure you’ll find a great lane soon!

@costangracing Thanks! Just gonna keep trying!

Wreckfest is in fact a banger of a game lol and Mario Kart is 100% the crown jewel of motorsport simulation lol

Yeah it took me a good long while to figure that one out lol

Yeah the throttle was wayyy more sensitive than I was expecting lol

Oh man I can only imagine! That sounds amazing! Are those races available with the D license?

@@costangracing Carburetor is rookie and unranked like the Pickup Cup and was available in your video but you might need to get a car for the week. Draftmasters is D class and is ranked. All 3 of these series race bigger ovals wgere pack racing and drafting is required to keep up. They rotate the car and track every week but Draftmasters in particular keeps to the giant superspeedways like Daytona and Talledega where you never touch the brakes. Have fun!

Ok thanks so much! It’ll actually be nice to hop into an unranked match just for a bit of practice too lol I’ll probably try and make a video on it actually lol

In the mirror tool if you click on the screen there will be a settings bar in the top left. In the settings there is a stabilization option where it smooths it out like in my video. The only issue is it crops in pretty heavily but it’s worth the trade off 100%

@@costangracing Damn, I’ve noticed in videos there’s a settings tab. Not there for me.

The only thing I can think of is making sure you actually click the middle of the screen to get the bar to appear or else it stays hidden

@@costangracing Okay, so I found the settings, had to have the headset plugged in. Now I'm back to square one though, the game still records the mirror absolutely horribly. The playback, unfortunately, is still useless.

Do you know if the game stutters in the headset while recording, or is it just on playback?

Hey thanks so much! I have a feeling I’m going to really enjoy oval racing a ton too lol like you said i feel like it will be really exciting due to everyone being in such close contact. Can’t wait to hop back in!

I knew my days of dissing the oval would one day come back to bite me lol

Man I hadn’t thought about that thank you

Thanks so much glad you liked it!

Dang I hope you can get up and running again soon! Thanks for watching!

Yeah it was an absolute blast and I’m totally going to be doing more of that! As for the VR, I absolutely love it for sim racing! That being said I was someone who was super sensitive to the motion sickness early on. However if you do it consistently for short sessions after a week or two you get used to it and the sickness goes away entirely. The key is once you start feeling sick to get out of VR immediately and then try again in an hour or so because pushing through it will just make you want to die lol in this case though my “VR legs” as they call them weren’t quite ready for the hours of circling for the video lol I’ll bet the next time I hop in though I’ll be mostly used to it but the first time experiencing something new can be a bit nauseating lol So I would totally recommend it but be warned, it’s REALLY hard to go back to flat screen racing after VR lol

@costangracing I race a 32 inch curved screen currently. After I get a proper 80/20 rig and get off my desk, then I wanna get a DD wheel and loadcell pedal set, probably Moza I think, and then it's gonna be a visual upgrade. So I need to figure out if I should go VR or triple curved. 😅 Of course these upgrades will be over a good bit of a course of time because I'm a hustling 16 year old living on a Caribbean island... but I've got this far!(G29, single curved monitor, new gaming chair, all Logitech peripherals, and just got a freaking awesome gaming PC![I was running a painful 18 FPS on iRacing, now over 100!]) Hustling definitely pays off! 😁

Man I’m glad to hear your making good progress! It’s definitely not the cheapest hobby in the world but it’s dang fun lol you’ll have to keep me updated on how you like the upgrades as you go along

@@costangracing LOL it definitely isn't cheap, but it's not the most expensive either. 😅

Ok sweet thanks! I’m definitely gonna have to try that out and see how it works. I’m super pumped to move up so I can try out some of the bigger tracks but like you said I imagine it’ll be real wild experience lol

@@costangracing No bother mate. I enjoyed the video and dropped you a sub. Can't wait to see how you get on. Made me want to resub to iRacing and get back on the oval come payday.
