Love the Mazda races, always exciting to watch! Great race Dave
Always a good idea to return to your roots in the rookie series, boys! 😊 Top split / higher split races in Formula Vee is the most fun I’ve had in iRacing. The racing is often close and far more respectful than in other series.
formula vee is always fun !
Hi Dave, as a new old guy just starting my new racing career so to speak I have watched many videos of yours and trying to follow your driving style. I have to admit @ 1.45 for me I thought I was driving my butt off and doing great. I pay close attention to your gear selection and speed. For me I think I try to drive too smooth, but hey I'm still very much a Rookie. Speed comes with practice and consistency.
Being a fellow Brit I do enjoy the bit of cheekiness. One day perhaps we might race or more then likely I will just follow you around. Cheers
Is it me or do the MX-5s sound like a swarm of Angry bees. And overdrive - thats a blast from the past! MGBGT - 4 speed box with overdrive on 4th 😁
Oskar appears to be the very epitome of "I'm the #1 car so you MUST make room for me at all times" type of driver. One of the worst sorts of drivers around, IMO
Right? Such a silly move...
It gets worse. If you watch his POV he does a double out lap with tire warming just to beat Dario, who hasn't practiced, by a few hundreds, then does what you saw here in the video and then comes into Darios chat and flaming him, saying he is slow and its his fault. Blud is full on delusional 😂
He a streamer too?
I vote for the return of the incidnet review during the race.
Hated this track at the beginning of the week, loving it by the end. Got me up from D to C license and definitely helped me learn some patience 😂
i've been loving this week at vir it's been so much fun. love the vids dave, keep the content coming mate and i'll keep on enjoying it
The overdrive button. I don't remember them myself but after I passed my test in '87, my dad picked up an L-reg Triumph Dolomite for me as my first car. 1850cc engine but it was a horrible car in hindsight. He got it because, apparently, he had a Dolomite Sprint before I was born. That, of course, was the model with the overdrive button.
Another good run with the Mazda, a good little car and yes you are correct it may be a rookie class but is always enjoyable. The tyres struggle for grip though in opening stages of all races.
I love the mx5 with a shifter, so much fun.
Needs a split-ratio box like the trucks in Raceroom 😂😂
Dario is a great guy and bloody fast.
Great Race! i love the mx5, but I'm more into vee and f4s now but only for current tracks.
11:10 my eunos roadster had overdrive obviously it was an automatic gearbox which made it impressively slow😊
Love this VIR layout.
lol this track is just a war of attrition in the lower splits. I just backed out of any battle then stuck up their arse applying pressure until they spin off on their own. If someone was up my arse I just let em past because more often then not they end up off the track anyway.
Good track, gotta have good weight managment for this one.
nice one Dave,haha had a Austin 3 litre four speed with manual over drive ,,land crab.
My dad owned a Toyota Cressida 2.8i auto it had the overdrive button on the gear
Hey Dave, nice race! I really liked seeing you race with a sequential shifter like you did today!
I have a physical disability and can't use the peddles for shifting and just got the Moza sequential shifter. While I like it, it's really a workout i faster cars like GT4/GT3. May I challenge you to try to do a race like that?
Dave needs a 3rd account so he can see the carnage in the lower splits
dave you should play the advanced mazda series, they always race in some nice tracks!
Nice driving Dave, but that Oscar guy🫣
Best racing on the circuit!
I'd love to hear from an IRL MX5 racer to find out if iRacing have got the tyre model correct on these cars. Every circuit it's like driving on ice!
Scott Mansell (from the YT channel Driver61) has driven the IRL MX5 Cup a lot and said the iRacing one is very true to life.
@@paolostrada93 Nice. That's good to know. The damn things are like driving on a skid-pan with cold tyres!
@@smokeybarrplays8226 agreed, I've lost count of the number of times I've lost the rear end on lap 1. There's almost always a pileup in turn 1 or 2...
Hi Dave. Love the new videos. The editing is top notch & I appreciate they must take a lot longer to produce and harder to edit, but the end result is well worth it young sir ;) Also, I can leave more comments now as I've invested in a gaming laptop (which is perfect for ETS 2). Shame I probably wont be able to use a DD base on this, but it's only until I can afford to upgrade the PC a bit (graphics card operates in the mode of non-functionality).
Keep up the stellar work & will be catching up on some more videos whilst in Aviemore for a fortnite.
Thank you, appreciate it 😁
How long do you practice before each race or before each new track/car combo? I find it pretty mind boggling to drive top split in so many different cars AND be competitive in all of them! Big props to you!
Not very long but I think you're being very kind. I just about hold on 😁
@@davecamyt i thought every one was using an H shifter.. then again im doing the mazda rookie experience in AC lfm so the car dont break quite as easy lol.. love the content
Another great video, but man do I hate the Virginia International Raceway, in any car in any game, it is heinous 🤣
Hence I have just completely ignored Mazda this week.
I don’t know how you drive the Mazda. I’ve never been able to keep it on track….lol!
changed the shifter to the right side this time? :) I remember it was on the left for you previously
Hey Dave another awesome race. Quick question on your pedals do you have a Max breakforce set? For example setting the max pressure to 80% or do you keep it at 100%. I hope my question makes sense.
No, I have never and would never cap my brake pressure. I can brake to 100% in every car 👍
@davecamm I tried setting my brake to 100% and it just felt very awkward to me. I've been sim racing for about 2 years and always had my brake set to 80-85%. I feel like your way is the right way. You have any tips for me for 100% braking
Do you have any tutorial videos on HUD setup? Im using race labs but I cant get rid of iracing hud elements. I also run crew chief but unsure of optimum settings, any help is appreciated
VIR is such a technical track, yet has a lot of room for line variations to play mindgames with the other drivers.
It's funny you mention an "overdrive" for tween-gears; I raced autocross with a fellow who had a Triumph TR6 with a two-speed rear diff, rigged to what he called his "giggle switch" on the column. Whenever he needed just a tad more top end out of second gear at the end of a course for a fast finish, you'd hear him bump it and get an extra 15mph out of second for an extra couple tenths or so of time. If only you could get that in iRacing 😆
Don't know if it is just me but on this video and the video before I am maxed out at 360p when watching it on mobile devices. Only these 2 video's. Anything changed to the codec or anything?
Nope, exactly the same. Must be your end as I never release a video until UA-cam has processed the full resolution 👍
148.... ouch😮
I thought these cars are faster when using the clutch and no aids? I dont see any clutch inputs im confused.
The 'new' Mazda has a modern sequential gearbox so you don't need a clutch. It is advisable to blip on the downshift though 👍
Gday Dave do you still run the slip angle setup on your rig ??? if so what are your thoughts of it ??
Hello mate, no I'm not running it. I think it's brilliant but I was getting feedback through my mic from the vibration as my mic is attached to my rig. If it wasn't for that I'd be using it 👍
Not to be that guy, but don’t you use paddles in the FF1600?
Nope, I use the manual h pattern 👍
What shifter do you use? I’m looking into one for a better immersive feeling
This is the Fanatec shifter, but I have something special coming soon to take a look at 👍
Is the MX5 a stick sequential? I always use the paddles 🤷🏻♂️
Yep, it is indeed. So it the gr86 😁
@@davecamyt Time to make a change then 👍🏻
@@davecamyt I have no idea how you get the MX5 to stop that quick, I'm breaking way earlier. Any advice on break pedal setup/pressure? I'm on CSL V2s
The trouble with watching UA-cam videos is that it seems I'm braking later than you. By the time I get to my reference point, there is a small reaction time before hitting the brakes so it would seem I'm braking later. It's very rare I'm braking to 100% in the Mazda. You've just got to brake a little less and trust that the car will stop 😁
Dave do you stream on twitch?
No, I've not streamed on twitch for a while
@@davecamyt Dam it I would love to watch you stream
VIR North is awful. If VIR isnt full i don't want to run it. The north course takes out all the fun parts and keeps the annoying turn 1-4 and then the rollercoaster and pig pen... WHY?!?!
