  • The irony... or whatever it is. How two guys who should be about the same speed and have been in the same race multiple times always manage to find a way to end up not racing one another.... I dunno.... All in good fun!

      +Dávid Kertész Its true, on local servers you get less off tracks. The more ping, the more iRacing gives you off tracks for even venturing near the side of the circuit. I still don't really agree with how harsh the 1x no lap qualification rules are, no international series are that strict.

The other guy (don't know if naming and shaming is enforced here) was being a pain for pretty much the whole race, diving into people and many were complaining about his lack of etiquette. And he does and effectively ends 3 races in one move. (4 if you count Matt's wreck)

    I've noticed many times that my qual-laps doesn't count for no reason just like this. Even without incidents during the out-lap. I thought it was my network-connection breaking for a split second at one point during each lap which resulted in a sort of "broken" lap. It's the same thing in races and practises.Not always, but sometimes.

  • @viperion_nz
    @viperion_nz 7 років тому +2

    Hey Matt, when someone like Leonardo is defending hard out like he was (starting at 4:35) how do you deal with it? Especially after his first move when he pretty much forced you off-track then kept cutting back in front of you, I'd get really annoyed with him, and wouldn't really know how to get past. How did you manage it?

    • @TacticalCardboard
      @TacticalCardboard  7 років тому +5

      Not so much in this case - but knowing that the guy who defends like a madman on lap 4 is the same guy who likely doesn't race "tactically" at all. He'll go for every inch, and that is bait. If you stay calm but keep the pressure on he'll likely become preoccupied against defending and make a mistake. But in this case not so much, as I knew I was faster and the slipstream is great for leap frogging.
      Also, those guys are great to use the old Mansell dummy move on! Look inside knowing full well he's going inside to cover, only to go outside.

  • @CarlosArnauRos
    @CarlosArnauRos 8 років тому

    Your laptimes can be invalidated if you have connection problems, because think that your exact position, speed and other parameters are sent to the server a lot of times in a second. If you don't do this for example in 1 second, they have to interpolate your position to guess what is going to be sent to other drivers. Exceeding the response time can be exploited to try to cheat laptimes, so the server invalidates your lap.

  • @calllam
    @calllam 8 років тому

    If your connection is playing up it will sometimes invalidate your laps, it happened for me at Spa too didn't get an off track but my lap for qualifying didn't count. That could have been the cause for you too

  • @edwardlack2578
    @edwardlack2578 8 років тому

    I had a similar issue in a sprint series race at sebring, my first lap I definitely had a 1x, because I ran wide in the second to last turn, but then next lap was aboslutely fine, good enough for 8th, no incident points, yet it didn't count, so I had to start in an even worse position than what you did here, think it was like 24th out of 26 cars or something.

  • @cathlive267

    I have had it not count my qually laps twice now. Once in a league race and once in GTC at the Nordschleife in the jetta. Not even a 0x. Finished the sessions with 0 inc on the results page. Just a bug, but at least it's rare.

  • @paulw1128
    @paulw1128 8 років тому +1

    Your quali lap details show "Invalid, discontinuity, *interpolated crossing*" for lap 1 and "Invalid, discontinuity" for lap 2 - This means you got a lag spike/packetloss/whatever at the moment you crossed the start/finish line between the two laps, so the sim had no reliable timing info for *either* lap. It sucks, but it does happen occasionally.

  • @Obi-WanKannabis
    @Obi-WanKannabis 8 років тому

    I thought that iracing offtrack was if more than 2 tyres were out of the white lines/tarmac. iRacing seems to be inconsistent I noticed in the previous video how you got a 1x for being on the rumble strips in the rumble strips before the blanchimont straight, but in Pouhon you can have all 4 wheels off the tarmac. So it might be there as you seem to pass it 31:11. But I don't know.

    • @chrissierzega8017
      @chrissierzega8017 8 років тому

      How it's been explained before is that if you were to imagine a line being drawn diagonally from the left front tyre to the right rear, and another from the right front and left rear tyres, the point where those lines cross would be the centrepoint for the car. if that centrepoint crosses iRacing's set track limits, then a 1x will be registered. however spa seems to be weird with the track limitations in iRacing

    Hi Matt. You should start to uploading all your videos in 60 fps format cause 30 fps is not immersive enough. I'm sure that rest of the guys would appreciate that as well. Maybe you could consider to start using Dxtory or Fraps or some other video capturing software for higher and smoother video quality and to avoid dropping the frames as Bandicam does. I could pay for that software if you would not willing to do so just let me know please.

      +Empty Box I know nothing of IRacing other than watching your vids, Im an AC man myself (ie less skilled!). Official F1 rules refer to white lines defining track limits not kerbs - www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2015/10/14/new-rules-on-track-limits-for-2016-revealed/ - but sounds like IRacing uses a different ruleset. If you're right, its the first game Ive seen that uses some sort of central stewarding (where lag would be an issue) rather than what happened on your PC.

    • @TacticalCardboard
      @TacticalCardboard  8 років тому

      rob211260
      iRacing defines their own track limits, they claim "as defined by the track themselves" rather than any real world series.
      And yes, iRacing has it's own automated system that keeps tracks of incidents of any kind - it is pretty much what makes iRacing, iRacing.
      What happened here to DQ my times (as obviously they require you to be on the track to log a time so you can't cheat) is the server for one reason or another just didn't get my car position updates so to the server I appeared on spot, then the next time I was "magically" 3 corners up the road.

    Not knowing anything about setting up the FR2.0, shouldn't that 7th gear be longer? (or was it as long as it got?) Saw it reaching limit on Kemmel (with aero help) and on Blanchimont by itself, so that's why I'm asking.
    Also: FR2.0 or Star Mazda?

      +Drovek Sterling It's too long, you lose time getting up to that speed for only a relatively minor speed advantage. FR2.0 IMO. Looks better, sounds better, very popular, not a car that is going to be retired IRL in a year and perhaps the same in iRacing.

      +Ducksauce Yes. Qualifying was stupid and we all could see how it was going to go down, textbook case of "if it ain't broken don't fix it".
      Vettel's start was MEGA. Not a Vettel / Ferrari fan, but such a shame they pissed away a strong chance to sneak a victory. Going to be interesting to see if the Ferrari continues to have an advantage on the starts though - remember Renault in the late V10 / early V8 days used a strong starting car to their advantage several times.
      Shame the Alonso / Gutierrez accident happened, especially given Alonso could have perhaps scored points in the McHonda.
      Great battle midpack... Max is exciting to watch for sure, but he needs to learn to cool it a bit. Sainz / Verstappen may end up being more exciting this year than Rosberg / Hamilton - one of those 4 will have a mental breakdown for sure this year. LOL

  • @BollocksUtwat
    @BollocksUtwat 8 років тому +2

    So why does iRacing not just use the actual rules in like... all of racing that says that the white line is the track limit and you gotta have 2 tires inside them at all times?

    • @TacticalCardboard
      @TacticalCardboard  8 років тому +1

      +BollocksUtwat But they don't all say that and they all certainly don't enforce it.

    • @BollocksUtwat
      @BollocksUtwat 8 років тому +2

      Empty Box Well enforcement is just a complex puzzle involving the one thing that we don't get in iRacing - human judgment. Or in the case of TUSCC last year at Austin an embarrassing lack of resources.
      With the rules I guess my point is there's usually a consistency to the pattern of it with the exceptions being the result of some drivers meeting no virtual sim racer wants to deal with.
      To me half the body outside of the edge of the curb seems so weird as a measure. I'm much more readily able to think "where are my tires" than "where is the centerline of my vehicle in relation to an arbitrary point on the ground that's not clearly demarcated".

      +Bill Williams The edge of the track is defined as the edge of the rumble strip, so in this case he was fine.
