  • Cars with substantial Aero and therefore High Downforce (F1, F2, F3, LMP, etc.) can be tricky to adjust to if you do not understand the dynamics of how they perform. In this video, we review the core techniques and concepts that you need to understand to get the most pace from these cars.
    The Driver61 Sim Racing channel is here to help you learn driving techniques, win races, and ultimately become a better sim racer.

    Did I miss something? What do you find is the hardest aspect of driving high downforce cars?

    • @EyesOfByes
      @EyesOfByes 3 роки тому +1

      Swiping fast enough at the apex in Real Racing 3 so the car steers before gaining too much speed and thus ending up in the grasslands. The VW ID.R is sure a downforce monster, even in a mobile game. Full speed in last corner at Nurbürgring GP. However, if you go too slow, the heavy cars just slides for ever and ever

      I would say you covered it perfectly, the inexperienced just don’t realize the huge difference in breaking distance and cornering speed that can be achieved when you have high downforce as opposed to not. They think they need to slow down more, when actually they need more speed to generate more downforce to be able to corner faster

    Great vid Scott, I think a good addition to this would be how to drive/setup these high downforce cars when running on low-downforce circuits, e.g. Le Sarthe and maybe some approaches to setup overall? :)

    What about tire life? Does more downforce mean faster tire degradation? If so, how much and how specifically to maintain speed and tires simultaneously? Do you drive the F3.5 on iracing? It seems the first open-wheel car with very strong downforce in their Road category.
    Another question, how does trail braking change with a high downforce car? Does one trail-break all the way to the apex? Does one accellarate before the apex? Does the apex change for high-downforce cars? Or is it true one does that less and tries to stop breaking fairly quickly before turning?

    • @dsdy1205
      @dsdy1205 3 роки тому

      I can't speak for the rest, but you'd probably have a later apex compared to a non-aero car, and yes, accelerate before hitting the apex

    Tip #2≈don't consume too much telemetry data
    Tip #3≈break up every corner on track into 3 parts and note cars performance in each
    Tip #5≈have lots of experience
    😜
    (Side note: shouldn't tires be the first setting adjustment? 🤷)

    Love the videos Scott! How does one bridge the gap between the pro drivers and where they’re at. Of course there’s practice practice practice but what do they do that regulars don’t.
    I’m not god tier driver myself but I like to try find as much time as I can.

    • @4zap7
      @4zap7 3 роки тому +1

      Talent plays a role but efficient practice is the cornerstone of what separates the pros from fast amateurs , you may spend twice the time practicing as some pro but it is likely that his time practicing was spent maximizing his muscle memory and absorbing as much information as possible. It’s easy to do a 20 lap stint and say you did your practice but their is much more to it than just turning laps. At least that’s what I have picked up on with how pros are on another level

    I can really feel this at work when using the Dallara DW12 on lime rock GP. The brakes refuse to lock up when I start braking into uphill, but when I reach (at least what I think is) the turning point, I just start skidding if I try going in too hot

    • @Route765
      @Route765 3 роки тому

      I’m pretty sure uphill roads give you more grip regardless of downforce

      @@Route765 I mean the approach to the uphill section. The straight before it is one of the higher speed sections of the course, and it's probably the slowest corner speed required before turning in. I'm just talking about the braking zone

    • @GT_FREAK
      @GT_FREAK 3 роки тому +1

      I used to use a T80 which didn’t have feedback and I was quite quick for what it was, so I think I can help you out. One of the major things you can start doing is watching as much track guides and hotlaps videos as possible preferably in the racing car category you are using, as you can’t feel when the car is on the limit you can a get a great idea of how much you can push the car in each corner by watching these videos. Visual cues are also important to see what the car is doing throughout the laps since there is no ffb, and remember practice, practice you will need to put in more work than someone with a ffb as the learning curve for a non-ffb is difficult
