Hey Will. That was me (Simon) I never reported. I reviewed the replay and saw that we both drifted into each other. Was just heat of the moment message Apologies. Was going to message you after the race but did not get round to it. Was a good race up until then. Just annoying that such little contact sent me into the wall and out of the race. All the best for you future races. Your setup is nuts!!
Hey mate. All good. As I said in the video, we all get fired up in the moment. And 100% agree it’s annoying how such small contact leads to carnage. See you again next time :)
Nice of you to apologize for the report comment Simon. However, after your review of the incident you state that you saw you both drifted into each other which is not correct. Will's car never moved toward you until after you contacted him. Did you watch the replay at the end of the video? You're clearly a stand up guy. Most would not comment after some of the other negative comments, but that being the case, why try to lay any blame at Will's feet?
100% not your fault. My best guess: The other driver doesnt have a tripple-screen setup but uses fairly accurate FoV and therefore couldnt see you to his left. Probably just reported thinking you were turning in on him when really it was him easing into you. Good race though.
@@boostedmedia good, yeah there's nothing in it - and also there's a cooldown timer on the reporting, so hopefully he took the time to review the replay by then. Triples - and / or crewchief ftw.
This is the first video I've seen from your channel, I'm just a casual gamer with zero experience in sim racing/ sim setups; and, all I want to say is, for like the first 15 minutes of the video, I honestly thought this was a VR set up. I could not believe it when I read some of the comments about this being a multi-monitor set up; upon closer, careful examination, I was mind blown. Like I was shocked in pure awe of what I was watching. I'm still shocked. My jaw is still on the ground. I don't think I'll find it for a few weeks. I think heavy drug abuse and addiction for a few years would still be cheaper than what you have here kind sir. It really is next level special. I'm not even jelly; I'm just awe struck at how much passion you have invested into your hobby. Hats off to you @Boosted Media!
Never seen a triple monitor setup line up as perfectly as this one, usually a lot of stretch and alignment issues but this one is as close to real life as you can get!
Yes mate definitely not your fault, you held your line (even giving him extra room) and he tried closing you out, but came off second best lol. You gotta love getting around Bathurst no matter where you finish ay lol Cheers Andy 👍🏎🏁
Hey Will good race mate, I was hoping you'd make this race into a vid, was a good one. I finished p2 in this, just squeezed past when you had your incident.
Just watched someone else sim racing for 30 minutes, rather than having a drive myself, and enjoyed every minute of it! I must be getting into this sim racing lark... also, waiting for my CSL DD to arrive, to replace my TM T150.
A typical thing many Sim Racing Drivers Do when they made mistakes like this, leave door open T1. They instantly drive into the opponents for blocking or try to get their position back with hard contact. Just stupid driving and he got punched by karma. In no way it was your fault! Nice gentlemen like take over in T1 by you with leaving half of the track space to the outside car. Very clean and a bit to fair. Remember normaly when hard racing you would go to the outside after T1 to have a good exit and prevent the reovertake chance to the car behind. Happy Racing
You can always tell the people who don't even know how to file a report because they say its done before the race is even over, let alone the cool down period 😆
@Loopy Racing be good if the spotter would tell you "car right, and it's turning into you", especially as you're already easing to the left. When I saw it I was thinking "crap, he's gonna do a pit manoeuvre"... How it ended up as a reverse pit move shows how aggressively he turned into him, though that bumpy stretch can cause all kinds of unexpected consequences. The joys of Bathurst. I'm glad it's still largely a road circuit, they are dying out. How long you been following Will ya crazy bastard? Besides Tidgney & David Perel, Boosted Media is the only other sim channel I support financially. Will is awesome for advice anything PC related, he's friendly and approachable, and isn't a complete sim elitist. You got a PS5? Getting GT7? Or have you turned into one of the PC drones? 🤪 Hope you're doing well mate. I'm just getting prepared to make 4K only content come GT7. Though I'm thinking of switching my Elgato 4k60 pro MK2 for an external device that allows easy play through, and has its own editing/streaming software. Bloody hate (SL)OBS, never have an issue with the Elgato capture software. Unfortunately they didn't include anything for their 4K cards. Also found a 4k60fps webcam. So you can see my ugly mug in UHD on the big screen.
So i just recently started watching your videos and i really want to get into this type of sim racing . Been looking at upgrading and i think i know what i want to do. Thanks for keeping me entertained while i am sitting around working .
I would imagine that from his cockpit view it may have looked like you were turning in. Only in the replay is it very clear that it was the initial impact first that pitched you to the right.
Great to watch the telemetry. Excellent visual example of trail braking. About the contact... The other driver moved left into your right side. You are good.
First time I'm watching something like this and this is amazing. Are those actual people talking to you over the radio? That's dope. Also a great driver. Cheers!
@@daldladla I was actually thinking something like there being actual people spectating and monitoring, relaying information for every racer, but who knows.. He's not saying anything.
I’d love to know what graphics settings you’re running and what monitors/graphics card etc. I just spent a lot on a build and cannot get anywhere near that clear of graphics.
What do you think about your line/car placement coming over Skyline? Can you grab a bit more ripple strip on the left in these cars. I thought you improved through there a couple of times toward the end, and there's time to be made there. However, the extra speed down the mountain makes for more of an adventure.
3:15 You need to adjust your mirrors so you're not seeing redundant information. There's really no need to turn your head and look over your left side... While leaning against the window adjust the side mirror until you can just see the edge of your car. When centered in the seat you shouldn't see any part of your vehicle. Lean about the same about over the center of the vehicle and repeat the process. Let the rear view be the rear view. It's also helpful to keep that low that way you only need to glance with the your eyes and not have to lean up and forward to see. Let the side mirrors be side mirrors. Try it for a while...
You may find a small blind spot directly behind your back quarters but there should be enough overlap to not lose track of anyone. Once they're along side there should be plenty of overlap between the side mirror and your peripheral view.
Inside cockpit view vs outside view are so different. One of most important skills is to know dimensions of your car, where are left and right wheel boundaries. It helps a lot.
Just in case the comments weren't already clear, that Simon guy had poor situational awareness there and moved across over onto you - what's not impressive is the fact that for a mere racing incident Simon's initial response is to threaten a protest, as if that's meant to achieve anything! His previous incident at Turn 2 when he fighting to keep the lead I would blame mostly on him also, it's possible to get 2 cars round there without incident but if the driver on the inside tries to outbrake the car on the outside, especially a car that likes to plow under hard braking like the Ferrari... well we all just watched the outcome of that
Exactly Daniel. The iRacing protest system is for deliberate incidents, not because you felt aggrieved by a racing incident. Must be so frustrating for iRacing to get these frivolous protests all the time.
one problem is also the network lag in general.. even though from your perspective you was fine, it could be, that on his perspective you was on another position. happens a lot
Dude...thats a racing sim? Those graphics are amazing. Also good racing. I always have trouble on that track when i race it on Forza even with the wheel. Awesome work.
First lap forrest elbow "underestimated how much front grip I had, got some understeer out of there" Mmm mm no you didn't underestimate it, that corner is notorious for taking your front end away from you. Pitch in early like its wet... or if you one of those that is capable of doing so just slightly skate it in on the rear brakes.
I really like the visuals I see here. I'm just starting out in sim racing, as in: I've been driving The Crew 2 and Forza Horizon (all of them), and I want to get in to more realistic racers. Is iRacing a good sim to start on, or should I go with something else to get started? I have a ton of questions about the various racing sims and would love to find a breakdown of iRacing, Assetto Corsa, Gran Turismo, and Forza Motorsport, and see how they compare in terms of realism and fun for the more casual racer. who still spent enough time and money to get a basic sim rig together.
A bit off topic but Man, that Goodsmile Racing livery on that Ferrari is *CLEAN AF* Looks legit I wonder if he made it himself or its available for download on iRacing?
I can see the appeal in this! it looks amazing! but a lot more forgiving and more arcade like than even gt6, just the lack of movement and tyre noise is the only thing I can pickup but perhaps with settings it can be addressed? it’s probably accurate with high downforce vehicles and as a sim the traction looks too strong and consistent I imagine it would make for some brilliant racing though!
My mind is melted. At 27:00 I think Simon was at fault by drifting and made contact but when the perspective changed, it looked like he was the one being hit? I rewatched so many times too. I should stop smoking whatever I'm smoking.
Never knew Bathurst was in iracing or I woulda kept paying for it. Love to see mount panorama in iracing. I’m about to check your channel to see if you’ve raced v8 Supercars on it.
Should be up in a few days. Finished shooting today. They didn’t realise the relevant product information until a few days and couldn’t give us a firm embargo date until it was too late.
I think there was a wee bit of netcode going on. In the heat of the moment it probably seemed like you moved over, when in the replay it was clear that you didn't.

@lotharbird nice GSR livery and good race
Man, the graphics are beyond amazing. I started out with Pong in the 1970s. This is remarkable.
The real crazy part is Iracing isnt' even known for it's graphics. You should see some of the games that are known for being the best looking XD
Hmm pong was really good, still beats games like PES 2021
Pong was real nerve racking!
x100
better in VR. Like being in a real car.
😂

thanks m8
Another iracer abusing the protest system. Awesome drive Will congrats on podium!
Iracing: the few, the proud, the bitchy lol
At this SOF many people do that. I did that as well few year ago :).
most forget after cool down period lol it's a game we will all live another day!
Oh hey Jeff! Fancy seeing you here. :) I love the LSPDFR stuff, you got me into that and I've loved it ever since!
@@thatonenigeriansformula I heard someone refer to iRacing as the world's largest salt mine and laughed for way too long. I think it was gamermuscle?

Yep that’s exactly what I think too.
Clearly not your fault, not a chance.@@boostedmedia were you "informed" by iRacing?
Haven’t received anything thus far.
@@boostedmedia good, yeah there's nothing in it - and also there's a cooldown timer on the reporting, so hopefully he took the time to review the replay by then.

Thanks a lot Kevin. Glad you’re enjoying the videos.
Usually I start this track with the commentary: "Here I am at the start of the iRacing six hours of Bathu.... and I'm dead."
🤣
Never seen a triple monitor setup line up as perfectly as this one, usually a lot of stretch and alignment issues but this one is as close to real life as you can get!

Hey Will good race mate, I was hoping you'd make this race into a vid, was a good one. I finished p2 in this, just squeezed past when you had your incident.

and here i go waiting for my TM150 to arrive :D
Thanks!
Well driven mate. Your race craft is just getting better and better 👍🏻
Bro, I was glued to this. Love the commentary and your setup is LEGEND!!!!!!!!
Nice handling on the M4 👏… loved the race analyze and definitely not your fault there.. keep it up bro
How good is this, keep em coming Will the content is on point ....
this video gave me chills, i remember my first time even with controller playing Project Cars 2 at Bathurst damn that was the happiest day of my life
Just some advice bud your entry into the corners is early you need to enter the corners a little later for more exit speed

I like how you give the Ferrari a miss, only to be surrounded by Ferraris!

@@xyzsauce1 OverTake_gg
Amazing set up I spent the whole race trying to figure out what was real and what is your sim. Great diving
You can always tell the people who don't even know how to file a report because they say its done before the race is even over, let alone the cool down period 😆
Are you still using the Next Level motion sim and Tracc plus system?
Good result👍. I like the post race analysis too. Nice
Everytime i see his rig i cant help but think how impressive it is
Definitely was NOT your fault, good racing in an unfamiliar car mate.
100% not Will - also agree with the 'racing incident' verdict for the one at Turn 2.
@Loopy Racing be good if the spotter would tell you "car right, and it's turning into you", especially as you're already easing to the left.

Man this was intense! Subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed. The next one is even more intense. Should be up soon. :)
Great Drive. I have never seen such AMAZING Graphics for iRacing 👍👍👍
I agree with you Will..... you held your line and he drifted into you.
Tip : use the max fov in the virtual mirror. Yes it will be fisheye but for side by side racing its a charm
So i just recently started watching your videos and i really want to get into this type of sim racing . Been looking at upgrading and i think i know what i want to do. Thanks for keeping me entertained while i am sitting around working .

I like that the guy that reported you rammed the yellow guy off earlier haha
Every time I want to get back into iRacing I see a video like this and realize how competitive this ecosystem is!
Totally loved watching this and no it was not your fault.
what a dream setup
Took me two minutes to realize that is HIS hands and arms/wheel. Thought Iracing had some really good animations for a moment there. Sick setup.
You are such a fair driver not your fault mate.

Damn good video Will, congrats on passing 2k iRating! I see a few familiar names in those results. I hope to see you on the track one day 🙂

Inside cockpit view vs outside view are so different. One of most important skills is to know dimensions of your car, where are left and right wheel boundaries. It helps a lot.

Can you explain the backup camera is that a separate screen it is it part of your screen
Definitely not your fault that one. Nice driving in the BMW too!
Hi sim family im wondering if fanatec has fixed the problem with the quick release wobble issue
That BMW at 3:25 was sublime overtake, even if it lost ya a place :p
You are a good driver. The sim seems well engineered and detailed.
Can you post your setup. I run 2 4090 gtx cards that don't look this good live. I can bump them up on replay as good as this however.
How do you make the monitors blend in like this why can't we see the edges
seen this in my side list,decided to check it out for a sec,did not plan on staying but i watched every sec of this video.. like and sub
What kinda set up you running with this?

100% his fault, no need to turn into you on a straight.
Yeah. Seems the game has bad collision physics, though.
I had no idea a racing sim could be this immersive outside of VR. Unreal.
Sim racing is one of the few gaming genres (possibly the only one?) where VR is still the cheap option :P
Nice tough racing. Battling it out on the mountain always takes a few sacrifices. Great watch. :)

Genuinely can’t tell what’s a monitor and what’s part of the rig when the screens are on.
I can see the appeal in this! it looks amazing! but a lot more forgiving and more arcade like than even gt6, just the lack of movement and tyre noise is the only thing I can pickup but perhaps with settings it can be addressed? it’s probably accurate with high downforce vehicles and as a sim the traction looks too strong and consistent I imagine it would make for some brilliant racing though!

Great sim rig, and fantastic lighting effects in iracing.
I think you got reported simply because you bruised his ego, keep up the great work buddy. 😂
Not on you at all for that one! Great race Will!
can you show how F1 and open wheelers look on these screens?
We have many times.
Anyone notice the car double clutching as it shifts, especially when down shifting. For a split second it shows N between shifting. Cool detail.
If I ever win the lotto, I'm gonna build a rig just like yours..... Awesome content Keep up the good work 🤤👌
I think there was a wee bit of netcode going on. In the heat of the moment it probably seemed like you moved over, when in the replay it was clear that you didn't.
I really shouldn’t watch you race before I go to sleep. I get more tense than relaxed! 🤣
