- Welcome back to RaceRoom for highlights of two intense WTCR races at Suzuka. This combo really stood out on the new ranked schedule and, so far, it hasn’t disappointed. The racing has been sensational, and the grids have been stacked! I’m starting the first race from P9. Will it be back-to-back barnstormers, or will it be double trouble?

Ah I love these cars! Great work Chris - you’ve persuaded me to boot RaceRoom up again tonight and have a go myself!
Good lad! They take a bit of adjusting to… particularly after so long without any FWD racing. But once it clicks again, they’re fantastic fun.
Fantastic racing, well driven Chris! Great to see you in RaceRoom again 😎
For future reference these cars have launch control which explains how other drivers got away from the line more quickly 👍🏻
Oooh thank you, yeah that explains some of them launching like rockets! I better bind a key for it before I try it again. Thanks for the heads-up 👍
Another gem of a post, cheers!!!
My pleasure Leigh, thanks for watching!
Great clean racing. Commentary excellent as always.
Cheers man, appreciate it!
Brilliant vid. Two races.. No One guessed that coming. Nice alternative to LFM. Loving the commentary!
Yeah occasionally I like to do a second race afterwards, as usually I’m more competitive if I do the same combo for a second time!
Awesome races, Chris! Always nice to see some clean racing like that.
Thank you Eric, as always 😃 cheers for watching
Nice race Chris, it's great to see you back on Raceroom mate. I've yet to give these cars a go myself despite me being on Raceroom all the time, they look totally different to drive than the usual rear wheel drive cars I've got more familiar with but looks like great fun and i'll defo be giving them a go. Cheers mate. 👍👍
Yeah, the FWD is a totally different experience. For my first few laps of practice, I was running off track at every corner! But once it ‘clicks’, the cars are so much fun. You could see how my pace improved over the course of the two races… once you get the feel for it, you really start seeing those lap times come down!
Nice driving Chris. It really looked like good clean racing expect from the turn one incident. 👍👍
Yeah it really was cracking racing. Great to see the grid sizes so healthy as well!
Great racing as always fella, nice one 👍
Cheers mate, yeah they were both cracking
Wow two banger races in one. The second one was definitely my favourite race. Man was that close. I love such a good race craft and your commentary this is absolut banger stuff 😊
Yeah, I loved these. It’s the type of race that really feels like you might be in the real thing, with everyone driving so cleanly.
Great races there Chris! Just fired up the rig today, did some updates, will have a look at these! Thanks so much for sharing with us!!
It’s been my favourite combo of the last month or two, with everyone driving so well in it. Unheard of for me to feature two races in a video, and not have one crash or wreck to highlight (except for the very first T1 incident). Enjoy!
great racing and commentary again👏
Thank you Tim! Cheers for watching
great video again and two solid races. i also like the dtm95 on this track
Is that the new pack? I haven’t got that one yet, but if it reappears on the ranked schedule, I may well get my wallet out!

as always great vid
Thank you Andrew!
Another great video mate full of incident! Its a shame that the times I'm able to race due to work I just can't get full lobbies on Raceroom! 😢
Ahh yeah that’s a shame mate, there really is only a small window of opportunity for big grids each evening. Generally it’s not my preferred time to race either, but I’ve managed to grab a couple of chances at it lately.
2:20 a pass in 130R w/o contract is essentially impossible unless you are already fully alongside b4 the corner (which is unlikely to happen unless you get a really good drive out of the previous corner, did a perfect job drafting, AND he didn't get a good drive out of the previous corner or has aero damage (and you don't).
What is feasible is to set up a pass in the last chicane. Getting the timing right going into 130R is a bit tricky. You need to be a teeny bit further back going on the previous straightaway. Square off 130R and get maximum drag on the next straight. If the other car is a tad slower out of 130R and you didn't leave that space, you will hit him unless you let off the gas defeating the whole purpose. If he doesn't get a perfect drive our of 130R, a pass into the last chicane shouldn't be that hard w/ the draft. If he also gets a perfect drive out of 130R, a pass into the last chicane is doable w/ the draft, but a bit sketchy (he would have to relent or at least give you space on the inside on the first half of the chicane.)
TBH for me the best combo of current ranked races is of course Touring Classics @ Bathurst , that's proper mad racing, trying to navigate the brick over the mountain :)
Well, you are a madman! Haha. I remember trying one race in the Touring Classics, and I struggled to get around Brands Hatch, never mind Bathurst. I guess, at least there are walls to bounce off so you stay on track 🤣

I always want to do some ranked here on RR but I can never find lobbies on PST (USA west) :///
Ahh yeah I can imagine those lobbies are pretty quiet. That’s a shame. It tends to be 7-10pm CET is the best time to be online for full grids.
This looks like a bloody hoot. I must install r3e again!
Ahh mate, do it! It really does look and feel a lot fresher now. Finding big grids is still a problem, but the peak times from 7-9pm are definitely more populated now for online racing.
@@chrisrogerssimracing those peak times are exactly when I race. Have you tried the TCR cars on Assetto this week? Cupra and Elentra I believe. Just wondering if you had any thoughts Vs the race room touring cars.
@@snappedbydanI haven’t had chance yet, but these races have definitely given me the bug for more touring car action, so I’ll definitely be trying the AC ones this week 👍
@@chrisrogerssimracing yeah do so mate, I hope they stay popular in the regular season! Touring cars are all fun, easy to forget when racing gt3 mostly.
do you know about launch controll on the tc cars
No I didn’t! But I do now, several people have let me know.
Is there a radar overlay for Raceroom? I’ve got used to having one in ACC
Not in the game, but there’s a third-party app called Rehud that’s really good. Got a radar, relative board etc. I use it, however it doesn’t reproduce well when I screen record… so I just record the game and not the overlay when I make the video 👍
What season is this WTCR pack
I think my Honda Civic here is from the WTCR 20 pack, that’s the most recent pack I own. But any year’s pack is eligible for these races, so there’s a broad mix of years on the grid.
