People in the comments drive me crazy. 'turn off the line, get a new wheel, buy a rig' etc etc. He's learning and having fun. We've all been there and made the switch when we were ready 👍
i agree about the rig and wheel stuff but the racing line really isn't helping him, even Justin Yee said in his latest video that the racing line is teaching Felix the wrong line so at least for oval racing it could help to turn it off
4k guy using still using racing line here (bc I don't know how to drive irl but w.e.). He needs to buy a rig, or any way to stop moving while braking (I just put tape on my wheels). This guy makes 3 full simracing rigs in an hour idk why he's still using g29 brakes lmao
Even in practice, its better to learn the reference points for breaking, turn in and throttle then to try following the line. Because the reference points are adaptable for each car and also gives you much better intuition for new cars, and also makes you more flexible during races.
so dope to see him ranking up so quick.... these ferarris are difficult cause they have no weight on the front end (all in back), so you constantly need to keep the fronts gripped up with weight of the car, normally trail braking everywhere, and more straight lines of exit than other cars...
I'm actually liking this iRacing arc a lot The fact that he didn't even know that you need to brake before making a turn in any vehicle in the beginning..
He still needs to learn trail breaking and how to deal with understeer. He keeps forcing the wheel more when he is understeering, causing even more understeer.
@@crackheadjonezzzthe wheel isn’t limiting him really in any way.. people who make excuses who think they need better gear to be faster are just coping.. there’s people with 5k irating using his same setup
Love to see you starting to cook! Just a general suggestion to improve a lot in these cars - don't be on a rush to push the throttle on exit. If you go on the gas to early, the car will understeer out and you need to lift in order to correct it (in other words it makes you lose time). Go slow in, be fast out. Great job so far though, huge improvement from the first videos we saw!
@@caseyphillips2565 incident? Did you have your screen turned on during the video? My guy passed like 10 cars to ram him during the warmup lap, that's 100% a troll that should be banned
Bro, that Force feedback meter at the top right corner of your screen is going red way too often. In this way you'll lose too much detail in your wheel. You should lower your wheel's force feedback strength in the iracing settings to have the Force feedback meter always in the green. Good luck in your sim racing journey!
Haha, here comes the Iracing addiction, starter pack includes: Less viewers, less monetization, less viewer engagement, and some less veiwers that dont have the braincells to appreciate racing.
@@CarsOneXDhis wheel is disconnecting from his desk every second race and he can't properly press the pedals down because his chair has wheels brother
Since he seems to be playing iracing and potentially more racing games in general. He may as well go all out on a rig. He doesn't need the three monitor setups, but something to where he is more comfortable to sit and play the game with. Just hire somebody to order and build the shit for you and have everything there in the corner to plug and play. I'm talking microphone, mouse, keyboard, adjustable camera, DD wheel, and load cell pedals. All with a click of a button on obs.
I learned with the line for a few weeks initially and then I turned it off to see if I could still drive a lap consistently. I actually improved without the line because it's just wrong in so many areas. I wish they would fix it honestly, or work on making a dynamic line that changes depending on how you drive.
Definitely needs to turn off racing lines, he’s losing focus on the most efficient line from where he ends up, he’s not looking at the corners ahead of him
May not know what a chicane is, but still knows the idea behind what he is saying and is correct. Js. Thats miles ahead of most sim racers that have done this regularly for years, sadly... Speaking as someone that has sim raced forever.
Main issue is that he doesnt know the track, he doesnt use the proper lane at almost any moment of the lap, and after that he should learn how to properly break with trail braking, hes understeering EVERYwhere and going too early on throttle, causing even more understeer
stick to one type of race then go to the next one if you atleast won once or twice on that category. also shouldve reported that guy who deliberately ram you on formation lap.
Hes getting better but he needs to learn the tracks before racing so he can disable the lines and the guy in the first race that rear ended him on formation lap should talon e out a bridge
Guys stop fucking commenting about his rig X’s skills will never improve if he upgraded into some 10k rig all of a sudden my man doesn’t know when to up shift or down shift and he doesn’t know when to brake one lap he will brake at 150m and the other lap will brake at 50m and lockup his tires it’s not a matter of his rig X needs to actually watch some driving and iracing content so he can learn some of the basics of driving
XQC's gotten way better, I sometimes forget he was a pro. Plus, there's that former Optic pro (crimsix) who's now a real-life racing driver. Just shows being good at gaming can help you crush it in other things too. but please turn off that racing line tho 😭
no, getting rich from gaming lets you go racing. if ur good at sim and not an influencer, unless ur 1/100000, u wont get any opportunity to race irl outside of local hobby stuff that you'll have to pay for at a loss. if ur shit at sim and rich, u can race as much as u want because pay drivers often are the only reason some teams can go racing at all. i have idk how many records in richard burns rally, for older cars anyway; i'll never get an opportunity, even if i have times faster than wrc2 drivers who also play. the best guy in RBR is a hobbyist codriver irl, but he won't get a chance as a driver from that alone unless he's willing to pay. shit sucks honestly
@@heavensadistancenotaplaceit is true that to race you need money but some drivers have gotten opportunities with no money involved such as Elvis Rankin and Suellio Almeida to name a few. Also I argue Jody Cleenwerck is the best driver who plays rbr as when he doesn't crash (or even when he does lol) nobody can beat him on pace.
@@JamesSheldonUnofficial imo, Adrian Sadowski and Oscar Estevez are the 2 best in my head. Oscar esp I really respect since he runs old and new cars, and on cz he was the one I'd primarily be competing with on record times. dude is insanely talented and can drive anything well, he's way better than me tbh (esp cus ive had to stop playing much after my irl car accidents but wanting to get better makes me want to play more which kinda sux cus its hard lmao.) and yes, some drivers have made it w.o being rich; but they are significant outliers. one can look towards iracing, huge game, how many of the pro esports drivers have made it pro irl? very, very, very few. some of them had to win tournaments specifically designed to let them race irl. fact is is that for 99.99999% of ppl, sim by itself is not some ladder to professional racing. if i went and paid 3k for rally school, which i want to do at some point jus for fun, i've no doubt that after acclimating i'd be a lot better off than most ppl jumping into an impreza on a rally course for the first time; i may actually do really well. but yknow ford isn't gonna come hollering at me to become a factory driver even if i start competing in RBR tourneys and somehow just destroying or something, ford aint chasing ppl from sim and beating Gryazin in WR or tourneys isn't gonna make some1 in some WRC or ERC team's eyebrows raise. sad fact is that racing primarily is money locked. if u got money, u can compete irl and be a ""professional driver"" even if ur SOF races on iracing are only 2k (like crimsix)
@@JamesSheldonUnofficial uhh i made another response to this but its not showing up, ill summarize in-case it was too long or got auto-moderated or smthn: oscar estevez and adrian sadowski are the best ive seen. oscar esp cus he drives mostly old cars (like i do) n who i'd primarily be competing with for records. but he can also drive new cars really, really well too (which im not so good at since i've spent little time comparatively in them.) he inspired me a lot to get better, and if it weren't for 2 irl car accidents that severely limit how much i can play, i'd still be trying to get better than him. few iracing pros get to race professionally irl, unless they win some special tourney specifically for it. uhh what else did i say, oh yea crimsix races in 2k SOF races, yet he has the money to "race professionally" (notice my quotation marks). sadly it's not skill gated (for the very vast majority, some slip thru the cracks) it's money gated. if i grinded rbr, got hella hella hella good, started winning tourneys in new cars, i'd never get a chance even if i beat Gryazin constantly yknow? ppl like Jody won't get a chance, sadly, even if they deserve a look unless he gets funding. xqc has a higher chance of getting a ride than anyone even if he's hard-stuck in 1k SOF races and blames his mistakes on every1 else in replays, jus cus he's famous and has money+sponsors. if a team loses races, has to bin cars every race, but somehow makes a profit on sponsors + merch + attention, they'll take the chance. see ppl like stroll + mazepin, completely undeserved F1 rides yet look how it worked out cus daddy can jus fund a team. it is wat it is, pay drivers make the world go-round (not that all pay drivers are bad, see ben keating for a really, really good pay driver)
@@heavensadistancenotaplace my last reply got deleted too so I will also change a few things. So Jody is better because he beat Oscar on pace in URS and if he wanted to he could probably get every world record, he already has 9 but doesn't play much. Either you race because you have money or because you are one of the best. I know what you said if you beat grayzin all the time you would still never get an opportunity, but truthfully if you were doing that, you would already be in a real car. Jody has been racing since he was little and at 14 he got a chance to race in the fia rallystars event, because he was good enough. The reason some drivers who are very good at rbr don't race is just because it takes time and money which they could spend, but don't because they are too old or have families they care more about or jobs they like. I know a driver called Martin vbrec and he is good, but even he would admit they are lots better than him, but that did not stop him from buying a Toyota Yaris and turning into a rally car in which he does events in. I hope you recover from your accident and if you ever think about trying racing just remember it costs a lot and will take a lot of time, but you can do it.
People in the comments drive me crazy. 'turn off the line, get a new wheel, buy a rig' etc etc.

The man himself has spoken!!!
Very true. Let the man enjoy it, eventually he will be there if he can keep having fun
please give him a 1 on 1 lesson, that would be amazing!
W from dave, the legend has spoken 🙌
i agree about the rig and wheel stuff but the racing line really isn't helping him, even Justin Yee said in his latest video that the racing line is teaching Felix the wrong line so at least for oval racing it could help to turn it off
he needs to remove the racing line and actually learn the track by himself if he wants to be more consistent
Trail braking is more important
Is the line a problem only when you compete against others ? Because I would say this looks fine when he practices.

Needs to stick with one car, switching from formulas, to ovals, to streets is just gonna make it harder for him to learn how each car works.
I think he's trying to find his way but he races mostly with touring / GTs now
Agreed. He needs to get a feel for the car.
I disagree. Race anything and everything
You can learn something from each series that you can then apply to each series.
someone needs to tell him to stop braking on the damn curbs. That's why hes getting loose
No 💀

as long as they dont crash him i dont really mind, they can be a little cringe sometimes though
@@asjbfjbkaw yeah but 1 guy ruined the race twice
This man's as smooth on the wheel as Jim Clark 😂, that's genuinely crazy, once he gets everything else locked in dude will be mega
i’ve been thinking the same thing, he’s crazy smooth on the wheel. he barely ever corrects the wheel, usually he’ll just let the car spin out.
Yeah it almost looks like he's driving around a regular car with how smooth his steering inputs are.
He has a loooooooong ways to go and is less than average atm lol
X is as smooth as 3 time champ?? 😂 No.
Bro's finally listening to chat, he now needs to get rid of the logitech wheel and disable the racing line to start improving his times vastly
Seeing him drive reminds me of sitting in the car with grandma 15 years ago 😂😂
hows that mido boulahia guy not banned yet?
because he never reported him for some reason and thinks admins will just ban everyone that crashes into him

Funny thing is that today he had like 31k ppl watching him play and he ended up winning
I watched this video more because it was an Iracing video. Sim racing has a fanbase, lol
Loving the iRacing streams
Would be cool to have a good iracing driver show him a few tips n tricks (could say coach him)
Then get a better rig and this could be fun af

I actually improved without the line because it's just wrong in so many areas. I wish they would fix it honestly, or work on making a dynamic line that changes depending on how you drive.
his posture and how he holds the wheel pains me lol
He’s definitely doing very good but he lacks confidence/timing on switching from brakes to gas, or even just lifting when he has to
Definitely needs to turn off racing lines, he’s losing focus on the most efficient line from where he ends up, he’s not looking at the corners ahead of him
Getting good …not yet.. improving yes but wow he’s got a LOOOONG way to go

he goes way too slow and focuses on the line. he can brake later for sure
I'd really love to see him watch a track guide and turn off the driving line. He'd so much faster.
