Thanks Will, lovely tutorial.... and from a local boy: it's Lavant pronounced like 'haven't' and not La-vAnt, there's no need to over euthanise the second a. All the best!
Thanks. Elevation comments very helpful, makes a lot more sense. Wish i saw that one before, as my 991.1 kept getting unsettled around Fordwater last year. Will be back on the track in a few days.
Thank you, I learned more from this than any other guide of Goodwood. I'm only playing AC and driving around in a Delage 2LCV 1923 as it's the closest thing I can find to a real car I am building, a 1930 Riley Brooklands. I am trying to build muscle memory for the reversed gear pattern which worked as my first test drive around the garden the gear change felt natural and I didn't have to think about it. I guess that's a no grip, no power car compared to most things! But your guide is most useful. As a real driver and a sim racer could you do a film comparing the experience of the two in the same car maybe? I know the sim is no where near real but it would be interesting to know what you do get from a sim that's similar to really being on the track. Or what the sim can teach you that's useful and what it really doesn't give you (like g forces). I won't ever race my Riley (there isn't much vintage racing here in NZ anyway) but it would be nice to get it around a track on a track day sometime when I finish building it. Just found your channel and the style and content is great and I hope you do well!
Thanks a lot for the support! That sounds like a really cool project. I'd love to do a comparison, real world vs sim and I've just downloaded the GR Yaris mod in AC so I'm able to do it now. I think simulators are great for practice and very under-rated. There are many techniques I learnt on a simulator that I know have proved useful in real life. You can see a tour of my simulator here if you haven't already seen it and thanks again for the support: th-cam.com/video/SQvjot69gxE/w-d-xo.html
hi Will, thanks for the excellent tutorial. I'm putting all this into practice on my PS4 simulator. Would you have a recommendation on shifting points ? are there spots where short shifting would be beneficial ? Thanks, Chris

I am on a track day next Tuesday 15/7 - so this is really helpful as its my first time !
👍Hope it helps and you have a successful day.
Thank you, Will. Appreciate the effort and guidance.
Cheers!
Thanks, a clear and useful guide. I have a sprint event there in a couple of weeks so will be taking your tips on board.
Thanks. Glad it was helpful.
Brilliant video, thanks Will!
Great video

Great overall format and video. Almost perfect! Only feedback is the final on-board doesnt need edit shots of you talking with a helmet on!
Mostly excellent advice. Not the line I take through St Mary's but yours is reasonable for newbies to Goodwood for sure.
