    • @EricKutilRacing
      @EricKutilRacing  2 місяці тому

      Thank you! So the process is pretty complex. I use race render 3 and custom made every data value with numbers and bar graph to look similar to the ic7 display. Its then placed on top of an transparent ic7 image to look like the dash. Its a custom template so its easy to import new data and video but its really finicky.

  • @jute91
    @jute91 3 місяці тому

    How would the car behave if you keep throttle on through corner and tie the speed down with light braking? You can transfer the weight to the front wheels with brake if it starts to understeer. Also tapping brake pedal while on throttle in corner gives you chance to tilt the car to turn more. Great driving anyway!

    • @EricKutilRacing
      @EricKutilRacing  3 місяці тому

      Yeah. That's not really how it works unfortunately with fwd

    • @jute91
      @jute91 3 місяці тому

      @@EricKutilRacing if the suspension is too hard, it really can't be used that well. And as you guys have high speed tracks there, the suspension needs to be stiff. Would oversteer quite easily. I've raced with FWD and RWD in here Finland and it works on both cars as we tend to have soft-ish suspension with stiff swaybars

    Hope you know how lucky you are to just be racing! I was already a super driver by age 16 but a twisted spine took my chances at age 18... It takes lots of money to do any kind of racing and if you can't break your back making money because its already broken, you lose hope, you become bitter and you end up like me, 41 sitting in a wheelchair with each day worse then the last! My dad and his dad both were dirt track racers... I never even had a chance and now I exist to suffer from life, where others get to live their dreams and enjoy it, I hurt too much to go to the store most days.
