This car was still undrivable for me this weekend. Idk what changed today but these cars are fucking amazing. Did the new tire model come through? Cause the legends feel amazing as well
That was some great clean racing to watch( from your side 😂), the flat 3,4 section over the top you had the runs where he defended down into 5, that always gave you the criss cross and better run up into the left hand T6, he never defended into there once, I'd have tried chucking a nose down the inside there.
@ yeah, I got caught up with someone spinning and brushed the barrier, seemed to get away with it and my steady pace allowed me to motor back through, I lost maybe 4 seconds in the stop so would’ve been 9th or so which was great considering end of lap 1 I was last
@@helmetculture I bogged it down with too little rpms, it started to slip then bogged and stalled, I was immediately on the starter and managed to get away haha.
Luckily I have a team of guys around me all building setups. For people looking for a place to start Madison down builds sets for VRS and I expect they would have a daypack out for Watkins already 👍
Just curious... but whens the best time to run Supercars... i've been wanting to race them for a while its just i don't know when the best split is to race them.. (USA EST Timezone) Does anyone know? or any groups/Leagues?
Australian time in the evening so about 3am for you is probably going to be the most popular. However there always used to be a weekend time slot which was called the Americas Split and would be something like 7-8pm your time on a Friday / Saturday night from memory. That would be around mid day Saturday / Sunday for the east coast of Australia and more likely to attract drivers from here. I guess just being around at those times to see what happens and what participation looks like. For the first few weeks races will go official quite regularly all throughout the week I imagine
This looked so fun! This car genuinely might be my favorite on the service.
It’s right up there!
Now that was an incredible race for round 1 you almost had him on the last corner great race .
I thoroughly enjoyed that one
That was fun to watch. Almost a win but podium always nice
Some of that super late model racing experience came in clutch in that race 😂
What a race!!
Set the bar high for the first one!
Great race again mate! Awesome battling
Thanks mate
That was awesome

No changes that I’m aware of
@ idk why but today after the new season all cars feel so much easier to drive. They react more realistic.
Great racing! I might finally have to learn how to drive the Supercar!
They’re difficult but rewarding!

Yeah I probably needed to vary my attack a bit in hindsight. Or use the bumper lol
@hobbo88 always easy in hindsight, not so much when the red mist is on. At least you've got some ideas for next time 😂
@@hobbo88pushing him into t5 faster than he wanted to go was probably your best bet.
I kinda tried it on the last lap but he braked really early and I bailed out so I wouldn’t kill him lol
Hey Hobbo, great race! Are you using a sequential shifter or paddles?
Sequential 👍
I can’t believe I stalled off the line. I was so pumped to be ahead of you haha 😊
Haha worst case scenario! Made a good recovery and cool to see you back out on track mate

How did you stall not enough RPM or user error on clutch?

what are you using for setups for these car's mate

Have a look in the iRacing Forums, there are a few options which should have you cevered.

@@hobbo88 Ty... and ty so much for replying so quickly... ngl I was just watching the video when I noticed my notifications start going off
Ur a lot nicer then i would have been...if u dont allow me to go to the outside to race u , expect me to divebomb on the inside then :P
Haha yeah typically we race with a lot of respect in the Supercars. But sometimes you just gotta get the elbows out!
