It races like this that makes you wonder what took iR so long (to be the first game, even) to add THE car that has been the stepping stone for many a budding young hotshoe looking to make the step up from karts to cars… Well done 👏🏽
I agree. But the developers will always make what is popular and sells. That is a consumer problem. I've always said if you want to see good, close exciting racing go watch a go cart race, or formula v, f- Ford , Mazda cup etc. I can't stand F-1 because of the politics, immoral amount of money spent, and boring races. Indy cars is a little better. Nice job Dave keeping it clean.
I yearn for battles like these when I hop on iRacing… awesome stuff! As someone who has worked as a flagger while a pack of these ran around the track in real life, it truly is magical to watch!
Very exciting… With those 5 races, you have your own season of Drive to survive. Racing pack action, drama and returning racers. Even in this one, we saw Oier finishing last, he was also taken out by Damien in race #1 when he was refusing to do the “skippy” train with you to distance the rest of the field… Great stuff!
This is not just a car. The Formula Ford is THE magnificent beast and always provides great racing. I am still very slow, but even then I have great races on it. I can't have enough racing with it. And such a sweet race you had there. Good, clean fun.
Awesome race Dave! Been racing this little hot rod since day one of its release. Absolutely love it. It’s a Skippy on steroids. Thanks for all your passion and great content. Hope to see you on track.
My very occasional irating of 1800 lower split races don't quite go this smooth lol! I wish! I can wish in one hand and crap in the other to see which one gets filled first, or go back to irating farming 😆
Wow! Honestly Dave, these cars bring out your best driving and this series you're sharing, showcases incredibly talented and healthily competitive drivers. Mostly.😎 I'm going to give this a try. in iRacing, I tend to drive Mazda series and Radicals. Excited to make a change. Thanks for sharing!
I just counted 22 splits for the 12:15pm( Central time, USA) for the Formula Ford 1600, id say the series it kind of popular :), cheers Dave love the videos.
Feel bad for Oier in this series. First one he gets stripped of a win from a racing incident he had no chance of avoiding, and here we see him connect after the first lap is done presumably from a connection issue.
All races on iRacing are great, I have a new setup in boxes for years but due to house restoration and stuff, can't be setup. But hopefully later this year. But every race is fun, because it's as close to real racing one can get on a PC.
What a fantastic race Dave! I've been sim racing since the first formula 1 and Nascar games were released and just upgraded my rig from a playseat evolution with the g29 up to the fanatec dd pro, with the v2 pedals and the formula 2.5 rim attachedto the trak racer tr80 profile rig. My question is this,... I am nearly 5 seconds per lap SLOWER on this rig that the playseat with the g29. Is this a regular occurrence for folks moving up to direct drive from g29 type wheels?
I usually defend Jim but he is "Captain Obvious" when he says "He's all over you"....it is a formula Ford race in the top split. All over someone is the way things will roll..... What a terrific race. The Ford's, like the Skippys and Sports Racers provide us with great racing and entertainment ....even if Jim is oblivious
Pretty sure I discovered Dario’s second account as I raced against him on Barcelona. Looked at his history and he has a total of 8 races with 4 wins already.
nope, not me sorry :D I do have a second acct but it's been inactive for a bit and has maybe 30 races in it - definitely not buying content on my smurf either!
Is this with an open setup or the fixed setup series? I tried the fixed setup yesterday but the gearing seem to be much longer and the car is really twitchy especially in T2 over the crest, I really can't keep the car there for 10 laps without wrecking it. Great car great series probably the best racing at this moment în iRacing!
The real car has a h pattern so I'll use mine. Same with every car tbh, if it has a shifter I'll use it. You can run it just fine with paddles though and still use the same shifting technique 👍
Really what are you doing that car set to wise? Break bias? I've been trying for hours and my laps looks identical to yours but cant get any lower the. 1.18 per lap
Nice to see Sim gamers finally realizing what actual motorsports has known for 50 years.

this FF content is absolutely great! keep these ones coming.

I ve also been racing the ray already the whole week because its so much fun, especially on this track, amazing combo ❤ good stuff

And such a sweet race you had there. Good, clean fun.
Great stuff! It's so funny to see you enjoying single seaters so much!
That was the best race I've seen this year. Thanks Dave & other racers!
Thanks mate. I've got another 2 equally as good coming up 😁
Really exciting to watch again! Once I gain a bit (a lot) of iRating hopefully I will see you on the track one day! Thank you, Dave.

I always enjoy your racing and commentary. Nice job.

really enjoying watching you drive these!
IMHO, these smaller cars at Summit Point consistently provide some of the best racing on the service. 😁
What a great race. Fast and fair driving.
WOW!! All that and still a 0X!! Great Work!!
Had a race with Dario today in the GT4’s. Dudes wicked quick.
Great to see the sim community sharing the love. Giving a shout out to another streamer is amazing and not done enough. Good on ya Dave
Awesome racing! This was awesome to watch😊.

Another Awesome Video Dave and again as i said in last video. Was a Pleasure to be in this race
Which one were you buddy?
@@davecamyt Devantier
@@thecowboy99 I thought so. Great racing mate 👊
@@thecowboy99 See you in the offish FF Australia e-series run by Formula Racing Group, I hope?
I recognize Dario's name. I've seen him around iRacing forever. Will check him out.
Nice one.... loving these videos. I'm also having an amazing week with these cars.
Dave, any gain in terms of time with the shifter or just immersion?
The car has a h pattern so I use one. 😁
If the guys in front of me were using paddles, technically I won 😂
@@davecamyt for sure🤣
All of the races in this series of 5 have been awesome to watch from start to finish...Can't believe the next 2 can be even better 😶
All races on iRacing are great, I have a new setup in boxes for years but due to house restoration and stuff, can't be setup. But hopefully later this year. But every race is fun, because it's as close to real racing one can get on a PC.
Absolutely fantastic 👏
Another great race. Looking forward to the last two.
Nice vid man ... started this track today and im getting crucifixed..ill try your racing line 👌
These things look awesome. Do you need a shifter for them ?
No, you can use paddles 👍

Yes it will take you a little time to adjust but I'm surprised how much slower you are. You have the pedals setup as load cell pedals?
You keep posting them, I’ll keep liking them 👍
More good stuff. Thanks for the content.
That was a great race. lowsey to watch. Need some carnage.
Great Race Dave! You still running the Invicta pedals?
I've had them back on the rig for just over a week now 👍
I'll need to order you a pizza as thank you for all the new followers :D great racing Dave
You're welcome mate. 👍

Love the new car
Id love to see Dave in one of these for real.
I doubt I would even fit in one 😂
Awesome vid, awesome race.

This is the fixed 👍
Great race
Dave how does this car go without the H-shifter, is it just a preference?
The real car has a h pattern so I'll use mine. Same with every car tbh, if it has a shifter I'll use it. You can run it just fine with paddles though and still use the same shifting technique 👍
@@davecamyt Yeah fair mate, thanks for that Dave, hope to catch you in a race one day
Another one! _ Dj Khalid voice😅
I wish I could be even 10% as good as you guys are 🤦♂️🤦♂️ lately it has been a huge struggle, I mostly do oval !
enjoyed that sweet
Hi Dave what shifter are you running there
It's the Fanatec shifter 👍
Dave, how is your delta visible during the race?
It's tab by default. You can map a button in the second options page in the sim 👍
Really what are you doing that car set to wise? Break bias? I've been trying for hours and my laps looks identical to yours but cant get any lower the. 1.18 per lap
You can see my brake bias on the bottom left of my relative. 53.5 for T1 then pretty much 55.5 the rest of the lap. This is fixed setup 👍
@@davecamyt nice I set my breaks like yours and cracked 17.5 just need to be a little smoother and cleaner lines I think
Excellent 😁
@@davecamyt thanks for your reply and help Dave. Your a legend 🙂
Need ur help im stuck in d class in road and oval do the rookie races count towards my licence poits
No, you need to run D class races to gain promotion to C 👍
@@davecamyt ther aren't any atm
Fixed Ferrari, f4 are both D on road 👍
Are you sure it's not Dario Franciti
How have u gt ur pit team saying ur name ???
It's a 3rd party program called Crew Chief 👍
I love formula Ford but its no good for my health. 😂
youre the reason why i dont play i racing :D its enought for me to watch you ^^ i would love to see some oval action :-P
