It needs a lot to be like you Sophia ma'am. I came to know about you after searching for lady racers on youtube. You are truly a living legend! You do not race, you fly mam. I got to know that you had an accident. I was really sad at that moment how much god can test someone. But you made comeback after the setback!!! Respect from India. The whole world is proud of you!! Keep Flying!!! God Bless you, mam!!!
Super talented young lady, big fan here, loved watching her when she was 15 or 16yrs old beating the lads in the UK Ginetta Juniors around Thruxton :D Glad to see she recovered properly, hope she continues to do well.
Had no idea you had a channel, recognised the name from the news. SO glad to see you fit and well, that crash was absolutely terrifying. Good luck with it all
one good thing to come out of this pandemic, is the amount of sports stars who have twitch or youtube channel, we have gotten to no our favorites more than we could ever have imagines, rig looks sick :)
I can't believe your courage and strength to actually return to racing after that horrific crash you had in Macau Amazing willpower and sheer determination will hopefully make the F1 world championship yours You deserve it completely after showing this much power and dedication to the sport :)
First time i heard about you was in a mod of Motorsport Manager game. Hired this young smiling 15 year old girl for my created team because in that game there is a stat named 'Marketability' and it was full 100% so it helped the team with sponsors a lot but won some races too, got promoted from F3 to F2 and eventually F1. Years later here we are :D Good luck & keep racing !
Hey, don't be discouraged, while consistency is easier with high-end hardware you can be JUST as fast. I've seen it proven multiple times. I got all the way up to class A oval and B road with G920 before upgrading to my dd2 direct drive and full cockpit. A little tip, you can get an adapter for that wheel and put on larger size rims. I had a 350mm for nascar, and a 320 mm for gt3./skippy/ formula etc. There is also a 100 dollar load cell brake upgrade for it (true brake i think)
Ich muss sagen nach Ihrem Abflug in Macau so schnell zurück zu kommen. ..Respekt junge Frau...big balls trotz no balls...sorry konnte nicht widerstehen..alles Gute
OMG. This channel just popped up by random. I thought - yeah, just pretty faced bimbo click bait... so I clicked anyway, not expecting to stay for more than a few seconds. I was so very pleasantly surprised to find Sophia is the 'real deal'. As smart and knowledgeable as she is good looking. Instant subscription! I look forward to learning more about her real life racing career as well as watching that totally boss sim rig in action.
i am your new subscriber after reading a old (20 NOV. 2018) newspaper and searching about you on youtube and finally found your channel. after watching your many video..you do great work in your field God bless you...☺☺☺☺
I like how you have a collection of trophies in your sim room. As a former motorsport garage technician, I have a collection of broken parts on display from the drivers I worked with in mine 🙊😅
Great video Sophia! So jealous of your setup! Been using VR for racing for years now and for me a massive game changer! RSS F3 is a fine car, even better when you get your name on the 21 car! See you on the virtual AC race track!
What i especially like is that you are doing very well after that horrendous crash. When i saw the crash i thought that driver might be dead, i did not know it was you in that car. You have a very nice setup and thanks for this video. :)
Very nice set up! I like the super long curved screen too. But, your choice of using the VR goggles is a nice choice and actually suits this. Having your helmet while playing adds realism and exercises your neck : )
@@Tcgaming67 I would consider minichamps cheap, ok not as cheap as Norev, but Minichamps is not very expensive for their quality. I have some 1/18 Minichamps models but I mostly buy 1/18 AUTOart. Also have a 1/18 Ferrari 488 GTE from BBR models. :)
great sim - actually quite close to my setup, I am just adding my traction loss actuator. And last but not least: I could listen to you and watch you all day. :P
Good to see you smiling, nice Simulator go to feel road undulation, as a kid didn't have that. now just canyon driving in my 2016 Mustang, Magneride suspension keeps the car Leaning, on hard breaking it keeps it from dipping on front. I too have die cast 1:43 scale from Steve McQueen ( Bullitt, Porsche 917K LeMans car for his LeMans Porsche Solo Production he owned & his Jaguar XKSS ) one other of James Dean's Porsche 550 He called Little Bastard" he also numbered it 130. Dean's real car has killed many and survived a complete burn of a Garage Shop with the original paint and upholstery intact. That is an awesome build of your computer processor congratulations on your LMP Prototype Contract. Take care, and as James Dean had said "Dream as if you'll live forever, & Live as if you'll Die Today" have fun Sophie, great to see you racing again.
I plan to get a fourth setup for PC racing ONLY,!! So thanks for the informative product info. ESPECIALLY the head phones because I NEED good sound if I'm gonna use them. Right now my moveable rigs/wheels and simcade/racing games play through my Home Theatre.
Roman "der8auer" Hartung from Case King just happens to be one of the best over clockers and PC Builders in the world. He's also an automotive enthusiast too so it's cool that Caseking were the guys that built Sophia's PC. It'd also be awesome to see Sophia on Twitch. It's a lot to ask but it'd be great exposure to the non-typical motor sport crowd. One of her team mates from the virtual 24 hours of Le Mans (Emily Jones) just happens to be a streamer.
That's an extremely nice case build for sure. And it will just keep going on low temps no matter how long the race goes for. This has to be the nicest "dedicated to one person" rig setup I've seen; there were so many great details. You wouldn't have much luck as a different sized person, but what's lost in that flexibility is gained in everything being rock solid and optimised for the owner.
I'll comment something different: your "little girl's smile", that appeared on your face, giving a break from the technical explanations and showing the emotions of a young girl who is so happy for what she got and can use, to practice and have fun. Things like these keep it all "human". Thanks for sharing Sophia :)
Saw your double? crash at LeMans the other day. Obviously, not your fault. You are one tough driver. Most of the time female drivers are over hyped, but you're the real deal. Hopefully, nothing serious injury wise. Keep positive, I'm sure you'll be getting another ride soon.
Hi Sophia!!! I glad a lot of you, I'm so proud of you, your development in F3 it's so good that you deserve win some Championship. I LOVE you so much, my Idol😘😘🤗.
If you haven't tried it yet, the Pimax VR headsets work really well for sim racing. I use the 5k+ with my Podium setup and can race for hours with no fatigue. The increased FOV makes it much easier for me compared to the narrow standard VR view.
Thank you so much for mentioning what actuators she's using! I've been looking for a way to build a DIY Motion Sim Rig w/ Traction Loss and I've never come across these actuators from SimFeedBack! Thank you! 🙌
Kann es kaum erwarten, dass du irgendwann auf Twitch bist. Verfolge deine Karriere nun schon eine Weile und denke, dass es abseits vom täglichen Renngeschäft sicher auch viel Freude und noch etwas mehr Bekanntheit bringt.
Such a Simulation is a cool thing. Remember on a event about 16 Years ago which there were a Pit Stop Challange (8 to 10 People in a Group) with 4 for the Tires and 3 for the Fuel Station. If you not trained in that esp. with th 12 to 15 Liters Fuel per Second (and that was simulatied with an Airpressure) you get the Feeling the Members have, esp. if you the one which have to refill. And that was on an Real not used F1-Car from 2 Years before (if I remember correctly). But the best thing was the Simulator-Driving in such a real Monoquoce with all the Feelings a Race-Driver have. Only sitting in it as a not trained Normal get your heart pumping. And then you have to set 3 fast laps with everything such a car is doing. Breaking out, light stearing on the Straights, get the perfect breaking Point and much more. The Simulation was the best Game on that Time and one of my favorites incl. today (Grand Prix 3 with the Add-On and not the next Step Grand Prix 4). Yeah, that was great. The Document I never will throw away, it was an Event where you could win 2 Tickets for the Formula 1 at that time if you win. Sadly I was only 3rd at the End. It´s good to see that the Drivers train with an Simulator and the new Secure-Things which get implemented to get better and better on the Tracks they have to drive in Real later on. Esp. the E-Sports-Events this year were great and I see some of them. Yep, Twitch is a very cool Platform too for such, esp. for simulated Trainings, Races and such, because there are many Live-Streams. Atm. there are many Livestreams from Multi-Player-Games like GTA, Hearts of Iron and such, but an E-Sports-Racing live on Twitch were something new. On the other Hand she has much real work to do to get her Cockpit, TV-Interviews, real Races (which I saw most of her in Formula 4 [GT-Masters] and in Formula 3 [DTM]). Her first Podium in Formula 4 on the Racetrack and the last Race in Formula 3 in DTM where Mick get the Winner in Formula 3 I saw Live. Since then it was very hard to see the Races in TV or in the Livestream, esp. the italian from last Year and the international she is driving now. Either you can´t understand the Language or you can´t watch it. And I thank God that Sophia can work on her dream without issues again. Hope to see her soon in international Formula 3 again after the 2 or 3 Races she get missed there about the parellel Sporting-Car Event she wanna doing. Remembers me on an other Driver from the 80´s which were exactly 20 Years older then me which was Driving Formula-1 (Tyrell) and Porsche-Sporting-Car-Event: Stefan Belloff No one tried that balancinc act after him again after his tragic occurance for a long time. Deutsch: Ich finde Simulationen eine gute Sache. Erinnere mich noch sehr gut an ein Event vor etwa 16 Jahren, wo es ein Boxenstopp-Spiel mit Nachtanken und Reifenwechsel gab und das an einem echten ausgemusterten F1-Auto. Mit Luftdruck 12 bis 15 Liter Sprit pro Sekunde nachzusimulieren was die Jungs und Mädels dort machen ist schon Wahnsinn. Vor allem das Gefühl so etwas zu tun. Die Simulation war noch geiler in einem echten Monoquoce. Alleine da schon drinzusitzen ist echt krass gewesen, vor allem die Vor- und Nachteile waren echt spürbar. Man musste auf das Ausbrechen des Autos achten, auf den Geraden immer leicht gegenlenken, die perfekten Bremspunkte suchen usw. Die Simulation wurde mit dem damals besten verfügbaren Spiel durchgeführt (Grand Prix 3 incl. Add-On; Grand Prix 4 war noch in Entwicklung). Das war großartig und das entsprechende Dokument hab ich mir bis heute aufgehoben, was 2 Umzüge mitmachte. Damals konnte man 2 Formel 1 Tickets gewinnen. Leider war nur der 3. Platz drinnen am Ende des 3-schnellste Runden Rennens. Es ist allgemein gut als Rennsportler so einen Simulator zu haben, denn so kann man mit den neuesten Sicherheitssachen die am Auto integriert werden trainieren und immer besser werden, vor allem wenn man später in echten Rennen fährt. Aber auch die E-Sports-Events waren gut, von denen ich einige gesehen habe. Twitch wäre heutzutage auch eine coole Plattfrom für Sim-Racings, Sim-Trainings usw weil dort eine Menge Livestreams stattfinden. Vor allem für Multi-Player-Spiele wie GTA usw. aber auch Hearts of Iron wird dies gerne genutzt. E-Sport-Racings sind dort eine Marktlücke. Und es ist tatsächlich harte Arbeit so ein Fahrzeug zu pilotieren. Dürfte das mal als Normalo ausprobieren in einem alten F3 mit der Hartknüppelschaltung. Weit gekommen bin ich damit nicht, denn der Lenkradeinschlag ist nicht gerade viel und die zu haltende Drehzahl beim Schalten und Losfahren ist nicht ohne. Da muss man schon einiges beachten wenn man nicht auf den Curbs parken will oder aus der Kurve fliegen, wobei bei mir ersteres der Fall war. Eine Simulation erlaubt dir Fehler zu machen, ein echtes Fahrzeug mit den teuren Ersatzteilen jedoch nicht. Den Unterschied zu erkennen und zu begreifen ist als Normalo natürlich nicht leicht. Da geht es um größere Summen, die das was wir kennen weit überschreiten. Diese Erfahrung mal zu machen ist sehr lehrreich gewesen. Andererseits ist Sophia im realen Leben ebenfalls schwer beschäftigt. Sie muss für ihr Cockpit hart arbeiten, TV-Interviews geben, richtige Rennen fahren (wo ich sie schon in der Formel 4 [im Rahmen der GT-Masters] und der Formel 3 [im Rahmen der DTM] fahren sah). Ihr erstes Podium in der Formel 4 hatte ich sogar live an der Rennstrecke gesehen und war sogar bei der Pokalausgabe in der Menschenmenge in der Nähe auf der Rennstrecke. Ebenfalls sah ich das letzte Rennen der Formel 3 live an der Strecke im Rahmen der DTM wo Mick der Gewinner war und Mercedes seinen Abschied in der DTM feierte. Da hatte ich gehofft, dass sie statt dem 1 Punkt am Ende 3 oder 4 im Gesamtergebnis gehabt hätte. Seitdem ist es sehr schwierig die Rennen im TV oder auf Livestreams zu verfolgen. Besonders die italienische Formel 3 (wo Sophia wieder sehr gut war und jedes Rennen Punkte holte) sowie die internationale Formel 3 wo sie jetzt fährt. Entweder verstand man die Sprache nicht [Italien] oder man kann sich die Rennen nicht anschauen, was sehr schade ist. In allen Formel-Rennsieren hatte sie bisher immer ein Zeichen gesetzt, nur in der internationalen Formel 3 wird es einen Zacken schwerer. Troztdem danke Ich Gott dafür dass Sophia an ihrem Traumberuf ohne Einschränkungen weiterarbeiten kann. Hoffe Sie bald wieder in der internationalen Formel 3 zu sehen, da Sie die letzten 2 bis 3 Rennen nicht dabei war um sich auf das parelle Sportwagen-Event vorzubereiten. Und das machten nur noch ganz wenige, nach der Erinnerung, die ich noch dunkel in Erinnerung habe. Ich erinnere mich noch dunkel an einen Fahrer der 80er Jahre, welcher genau 20 Jahre älter wäre als ich. Er fuhr für Tyrell (Bezahlfahrer) in der Formel 1 und Porsche-Sportwagenevents. Seinen Werdegang habe ich in dem Museum am Nürburgring und auch hier auf TH-cam ein ein wenig nachvollziehen können. Keiner versuchte so einen Balanceakt nach dem tragischen Vorfall lange Zeit nach ihm. Der Name des Fahrers war Stefan Beloff.
Great SIM Chassis/Rig setup which you have there..!!! 😉👍 I'm curious to know what seat you've decided to use for your setup and if you're willing to state which chassis design you have..??? 🤔😳😯 Thanks so very much for sharing your details..!!! 👌💯😎🏁
I'm so glad you're doing so well after that insane crash. It's almost like a distant memory at this point. Sim racing is what got me into real racing so I hope you enjoy it. It definitely helps a lot. Nick heidfeld even said he learned the nordschliefe from playing gran turismo before he did his lap there in an f1 car My setup is more modest for sure. Aging PC, ps4 pro, and thrustmaster t300. It's so much fun tho
RaceRoom Racing Experience is where it's at. ;-) It has all formulas and many DTM eras. Really enjoy driving F4's and F3's on all the tracks around the world.
Its totally doable.. End of the year i will upgrade my Rig to even better Hardware :D. But without that fanatec hyped stuff. Heusinkveld and Simucube all the way. Motion will be added Summer next year.
@@Tintop Yeah well. Fanatec is nice, dont get me wrong, but because its the most "known" brand for newcomers it always feels like its hyped. There are many driver related issues with the DD1 and DD2 base what i hear from friends. Fanatec fixes that as quickas they can, but never heard of a simucube user that their base dc´ed in mid race.
Would love to hear your impressions of the Brazilian F3 (2011 and 2019 versions) in AMS 2. It is well worth the small cost and minutes to configure as the driving feel and model is on par with rF2 or iRacing. There are a bunch of prototypes to enjoy as well.
Sophia... Schon mal sehr geil dein setup... Aber das wichtigste fehlt. Vor allen in Verbindung mit einem motion rig solltest du dir dringend ein vr Headset zulegen... Das bringt dich weiter und zwar ein gaaanz grosses Stück. Lg
What a great tour of your sim rig. I noticed your seat is back like you would have it for the F3. Can you and do you change the seating position for the P2? Thx for sharing Sophia!
Hi, the advantage of PC is that you can use mods (adds-ons) for your games. So for example, in your case, you can find any track you want on AC (or RFactor 2) just by typing its name on google + the name of the sim (Assetto Corsa, RFactor 2, etc.) and you'll probably find it :) For example I found the Hungaroring and Bahrain and many other tracks for Assetto Corsa that aren't in the main game or the DLCs. I don't know if they are laser-scanned and therefore realistic enough for real drivers but personnally I found all the track mods way more realistic in AC than in Codemaster's F1 games :). Enjoy and have a nice day !

You should be on Twitch! I would love to see you along with Lando Norris and Leclerc!
^THIS!!!!!!!
Would also enlarge her "brand"
Agree with this! Also get Alex Peroni doing it too!
maxiking 881 not really ‘brand’ but status, sponsors will want her in f2 cars if she has a larger fan base, accelerating her career
Random Guy Leclerc probably won’t stream but even during the F2 and F1 season Lando has streamed he’s really a proper streamer
Kimi uses PlayStation One bwoah
Engineer: Kimi you should get a pc
Kimi: Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing.
Bwoah ..
nah, he uses an abacus.
He doesn’t, he has a far more sophisticated rig than this one with Simucube 2 and hydraulic pedals.

The F3 is so good in AC because the mod team worked directly with race teams to make it as realistic as possible.
AC? there is not F3 in Assetto Corsa
@@josecalvo9730 There are F3 mods for AC. The one she is using was created in collaboration with racing teams. racesimstudio.com/formula-rss-3-is-out

I can't believe your courage and strength to actually return to racing after that horrific crash you had in Macau
Amazing willpower and sheer determination will hopefully make the F1 world championship yours
You deserve it completely after showing this much power and dedication to the sport :)
I think the N24 is where it's at.
24hrs around that place. It's as long as every F1 race in a season

Yep, Twitch is a very cool Platform too for such, esp. for simulated Trainings, Races and such, because there are many Live-Streams. Atm. there are many Livestreams from Multi-Player-Games like GTA, Hearts of Iron and such, but an E-Sports-Racing live on Twitch were something new.
On the other Hand she has much real work to do to get her Cockpit, TV-Interviews, real Races (which I saw most of her in Formula 4 [GT-Masters] and in Formula 3 [DTM]). Her first Podium in Formula 4 on the Racetrack and the last Race in Formula 3 in DTM where Mick get the Winner in Formula 3 I saw Live.
Since then it was very hard to see the Races in TV or in the Livestream, esp. the italian from last Year and the international she is driving now. Either you can´t understand the Language or you can´t watch it.
And I thank God that Sophia can work on her dream without issues again. Hope to see her soon in international Formula 3 again after the 2 or 3 Races she get missed there about the parellel Sporting-Car Event she wanna doing.
Remembers me on an other Driver from the 80´s which were exactly 20 Years older then me which was Driving Formula-1 (Tyrell) and Porsche-Sporting-Car-Event: Stefan Belloff
No one tried that balancinc act after him again after his tragic occurance for a long time.
Deutsch:
Ich finde Simulationen eine gute Sache. Erinnere mich noch sehr gut an ein Event vor etwa 16 Jahren, wo es ein Boxenstopp-Spiel mit Nachtanken und Reifenwechsel gab und das an einem echten ausgemusterten F1-Auto. Mit Luftdruck 12 bis 15 Liter Sprit pro Sekunde nachzusimulieren was die Jungs und Mädels dort machen ist schon Wahnsinn. Vor allem das Gefühl so etwas zu tun.
Die Simulation war noch geiler in einem echten Monoquoce. Alleine da schon drinzusitzen ist echt krass gewesen, vor allem die Vor- und Nachteile waren echt spürbar. Man musste auf das Ausbrechen des Autos achten, auf den Geraden immer leicht gegenlenken, die perfekten Bremspunkte suchen usw. Die Simulation wurde mit dem damals besten verfügbaren Spiel durchgeführt (Grand Prix 3 incl. Add-On; Grand Prix 4 war noch in Entwicklung).
Das war großartig und das entsprechende Dokument hab ich mir bis heute aufgehoben, was 2 Umzüge mitmachte. Damals konnte man 2 Formel 1 Tickets gewinnen. Leider war nur der 3. Platz drinnen am Ende des 3-schnellste Runden Rennens.
Es ist allgemein gut als Rennsportler so einen Simulator zu haben, denn so kann man mit den neuesten Sicherheitssachen die am Auto integriert werden trainieren und immer besser werden, vor allem wenn man später in echten Rennen fährt. Aber auch die E-Sports-Events waren gut, von denen ich einige gesehen habe.
Twitch wäre heutzutage auch eine coole Plattfrom für Sim-Racings, Sim-Trainings usw weil dort eine Menge Livestreams stattfinden. Vor allem für Multi-Player-Spiele wie GTA usw. aber auch Hearts of Iron wird dies gerne genutzt. E-Sport-Racings sind dort eine Marktlücke.
Und es ist tatsächlich harte Arbeit so ein Fahrzeug zu pilotieren. Dürfte das mal als Normalo ausprobieren in einem alten F3 mit der Hartknüppelschaltung. Weit gekommen bin ich damit nicht, denn der Lenkradeinschlag ist nicht gerade viel und die zu haltende Drehzahl beim Schalten und Losfahren ist nicht ohne. Da muss man schon einiges beachten wenn man nicht auf den Curbs parken will oder aus der Kurve fliegen, wobei bei mir ersteres der Fall war. Eine Simulation erlaubt dir Fehler zu machen, ein echtes Fahrzeug mit den teuren Ersatzteilen jedoch nicht. Den Unterschied zu erkennen und zu begreifen ist als Normalo natürlich nicht leicht. Da geht es um größere Summen, die das was wir kennen weit überschreiten. Diese Erfahrung mal zu machen ist sehr lehrreich gewesen.
Andererseits ist Sophia im realen Leben ebenfalls schwer beschäftigt. Sie muss für ihr Cockpit hart arbeiten, TV-Interviews geben, richtige Rennen fahren (wo ich sie schon in der Formel 4 [im Rahmen der GT-Masters] und der Formel 3 [im Rahmen der DTM] fahren sah). Ihr erstes Podium in der Formel 4 hatte ich sogar live an der Rennstrecke gesehen und war sogar bei der Pokalausgabe in der Menschenmenge in der Nähe auf der Rennstrecke. Ebenfalls sah ich das letzte Rennen der Formel 3 live an der Strecke im Rahmen der DTM wo Mick der Gewinner war und Mercedes seinen Abschied in der DTM feierte. Da hatte ich gehofft, dass sie statt dem 1 Punkt am Ende 3 oder 4 im Gesamtergebnis gehabt hätte.
Seitdem ist es sehr schwierig die Rennen im TV oder auf Livestreams zu verfolgen. Besonders die italienische Formel 3 (wo Sophia wieder sehr gut war und jedes Rennen Punkte holte) sowie die internationale Formel 3 wo sie jetzt fährt. Entweder verstand man die Sprache nicht [Italien] oder man kann sich die Rennen nicht anschauen, was sehr schade ist. In allen Formel-Rennsieren hatte sie bisher immer ein Zeichen gesetzt, nur in der internationalen Formel 3 wird es einen Zacken schwerer.
Troztdem danke Ich Gott dafür dass Sophia an ihrem Traumberuf ohne Einschränkungen weiterarbeiten kann. Hoffe Sie bald wieder in der internationalen Formel 3 zu sehen, da Sie die letzten 2 bis 3 Rennen nicht dabei war um sich auf das parelle Sportwagen-Event vorzubereiten. Und das machten nur noch ganz wenige, nach der Erinnerung, die ich noch dunkel in Erinnerung habe.
Ich erinnere mich noch dunkel an einen Fahrer der 80er Jahre, welcher genau 20 Jahre älter wäre als ich. Er fuhr für Tyrell (Bezahlfahrer) in der Formel 1 und Porsche-Sportwagenevents. Seinen Werdegang habe ich in dem Museum am Nürburgring und auch hier auf TH-cam ein ein wenig nachvollziehen können. Keiner versuchte so einen Balanceakt nach dem tragischen Vorfall lange Zeit nach ihm. Der Name des Fahrers war Stefan Beloff.
Great SIM Chassis/Rig setup which you have there..!!! 😉👍 I'm curious to know what seat you've decided to use for your setup and if you're willing to state which chassis design you have..??? 🤔😳😯 Thanks so very much for sharing your details..!!! 👌💯😎🏁
I'm so glad you're doing so well after that insane crash. It's almost like a distant memory at this point.
Sim racing is what got me into real racing so I hope you enjoy it. It definitely helps a lot. Nick heidfeld even said he learned the nordschliefe from playing gran turismo before he did his lap there in an f1 car
My setup is more modest for sure. Aging PC, ps4 pro, and thrustmaster t300. It's so much fun tho
RaceRoom Racing Experience is where it's at. ;-) It has all formulas and many DTM eras. Really enjoy driving F4's and F3's on all the tracks around the world.
This is cool and totally out of reach of the average person.
Half content of the video is commercial for the companies listed down below the video at the end. :D
why is it out of reach for the average person? I'm an average person and also have a rig like this (but without motion yet, it's work in progress atm)
Its totally doable.. End of the year i will upgrade my Rig to even better Hardware :D. But without that fanatec hyped stuff. Heusinkveld and Simucube all the way. Motion will be added Summer next year.
@@aqulex84 Simucube and fanatec... it's like iOS and Android... I'm also team Simucube lol.
@@Tintop Yeah well. Fanatec is nice, dont get me wrong, but because its the most "known" brand for newcomers it always feels like its hyped. There are many driver related issues with the DD1 and DD2 base what i hear from friends. Fanatec fixes that as quickas they can, but never heard of a simucube user that their base dc´ed in mid race.
Nice setup. I’ll be adding motion soon just trying to decide what route I’m going to go with.
i could listen to you talk alllll day
I use both VR and three screens because it is hard to find the buttons with VR on.
Awesome set up 🤙🏼🏎🏁
I hope that Sophia F. can eventually get a Formula One ride!
watching your video on they Same Samsung monitor!!! LOL.. it kicks butt
Would love to hear your impressions of the Brazilian F3 (2011 and 2019 versions) in AMS 2. It is well worth the small cost and minutes to configure as the driving feel and model is on par with rF2 or iRacing. There are a bunch of prototypes to enjoy as well.
I knew you couldnt be american judging by how crazy your setup is. Very nice indeed.
Sophia... Schon mal sehr geil dein setup... Aber das wichtigste fehlt. Vor allen in Verbindung mit einem motion rig solltest du dir dringend ein vr Headset zulegen... Das bringt dich weiter und zwar ein gaaanz grosses Stück. Lg
This is my first time watching this channel. I've seen girls doing sim Racing.
What a great tour of your sim rig. I noticed your seat is back like you would have it for the F3. Can you and do you change the seating position for the P2?
Thx for sharing Sophia!
Super Set up, nicht dass ich neidisch wäre! (;
Hi new sub, glad to meet you fellow sim racer lol. Dam i love it 👌👍
great quality video keep us updated
Hey Sophia,
Short question: Which Basechasis is your Simulator ? And where di you bought it ?
Hi, the advantage of PC is that you can use mods (adds-ons) for your games. So for example, in your case, you can find any track you want on AC (or RFactor 2) just by typing its name on google + the name of the sim (Assetto Corsa, RFactor 2, etc.) and you'll probably find it :) For example I found the Hungaroring and Bahrain and many other tracks for Assetto Corsa that aren't in the main game or the DLCs. I don't know if they are laser-scanned and therefore realistic enough for real drivers but personnally I found all the track mods way more realistic in AC than in Codemaster's F1 games :). Enjoy and have a nice day !
Great vid Sophia! Thanks....What's your F3 mod? for Assetto?
Great setup 👍
Thanks for a great overview. Given that your real race cars steering wheel has a lot of buttons itself is it confusing to practice on a different one?
