Again, a few things in this video which need fixed. I cut some audio out at the start by mistake. I was saying behind me was real life racing Driver Elias Seppanen. Also, I'm aware my webcam needs to be positioned a little higher. Sorry 🤣
Netcode, or not, that right-hander requires a lift in most cars, just to stop from going off-track on the left side. Elias knows that and he also knows the only way he was going to make that pass work is if you gave it to him. You can't assume someone is just going to give up and let you take the position. No fault on your part Dave, that was all Elias. Cheers, Sev
@@Sev_Auk totally agree, i think he expected Dave to give him the place in fear of crashing in the first lap but karma bit him in the ass, netcode or not as you said.

I drive GT4 at Nords a lot, I use GT4 cars in the nurb endurance championship, and did 24 hours last year in GT4. I know the combo well. Seeing this on the calendar got me testing the GT4s ahead of this week, to pick a favorite. I got laps in all the others within half a second of each other. The BMW, however, I went over two seconds quicker. No draft, just test driving each car in same conditions on Ringmeister setup. The BMW was so much better I assumed I'd accidentally used another setup or changed weather/track use etc but nope, checking telemetry and it was just that much quicker. I really hope they sort it before this year's Nurb endurance championship and N24...
I love how normal this channel is and to see the voice modulator give those issues had me dying of laughter. Oh the amount of times I have had to fix something pre-race.
Net code aside, the contact physics are in great need of attention. Cars don't just lose traction like that with what was a slight touch. The car reacted as if it had been smacked at an acute angle not a parallel touch.
iRacings physics are in a bad way all round, in my opinion. The only thing keeping it as popular as it is is it's multiplayer platform and the ease with which to find busy series any time of day. The driving experience on almost all other platforms is better. Again, imo.

I still wish iRacing would lock you into a specific car for a specific series every season. You sign up with GT4 with a BMW, guess what you use that for GT4 all season. Choose the McLarin. Guess what you’re using for 4 months 😂
It would make it more realistic, teams get one car for a season, you don’t see them switching between makes based on what car suits the course. Iracing won’t do that, it suits them for you to buy as many cars as you want. They are not concerned about BOP or realism anymore. If they were they’d add less new content in an effort to fix the collision physics or create a incident responsibly/virtual stewards system to penalize incidents like the irl instead of the “no fault everyone gets an sr hit” system of today.
Even in a slipstream, my Porsche can't catch a BMW M4 down Dottinger Hohe. Nice iRacing. Nice. 😆 Dave, forget about us -- if you enjoy racing with triples, I hope you do so. It's your gaming time. You deserve to enjoy it to the maximum.
You doin' it on the twipples again Dave. And good man for plumping for the Porsche. Might not be the fastest but its the best car with a Porsche badge.
People in the forums will just tell you the BOP is fine and the only reason everyone’s driving the BMW is because the fast guys choose it to be a tenth faster. It’s really frustrating, especially for those of us who don’t want to buy a dozen different cars just to be competitive in these series
@@razvanlogigan2835 Yea but if 1.5k is the average then that means the base average of your community is complaining something is wrong. Clearly something is wrong tho no?
@@yuemaeve it's the fixed setups i think, not the bop itself. So in theory it's quite an easy fix, but if they dont wanna aknowledge the problem, then obviously they wont fix it.
Man those that remember I thought the Cybermen had returned at the start of the race - first time I saw those guys I had to hide behind the sofa - LOL -
Totally agree on the BoP issues here. It's my first full season on iRacing and I'm mainly doing GT4, only own the Aston. I know it's not the meta car but I'm usually top 8 or so in the normal series races. I was stoked to try it in Ringmeister as it's a really fun combo but wow what a waste of time and rating. If I had known Ringmeister BoP could be this bad I likely wouldn't have bought the track.
I've just done 6 races on ringmeister in the Cayman today. Absolutely loved racing the all the BMWs even if they were a tad quicker on the main straight!
I also loved that full triple monitor setup cam, maybe you can include it in situations such as 7:40 cause we couldnt see the other guy at all, where as he was visible on the other cam
I think you should go back to triples...I saw Elliot coming up on your left and I shouted "LEFT, HE'S ON YOUR LEFT :) Oh and by the way BIG Congrats with getting the Silver Tablet from TH-cam :) WELL Deserved 😍
Triple screen videos don’t come across as any lower for production/quality 🙂 looking good Dave! Would you look at trying an overhead cam again on occasion so we can see roughly your PoV? I think I remember enjoying that!
This kind of thing is why I switched from GT7 years ago over to iRacing... yet here we are right back at it with sim BOP single make races again... please ACE get this right
Really enjoyed the video. Not a big fan of the alternate camera angles though(when showing the steering wheel while you were racing). Great job with the editing/race though!
I've always felt that BOP should be automated. They should just see (programatically) what cars are competing and which are getting the best result and automatically adjust the BOP to compensate. Then if a week starts with out of whack BOP, it can be adjusted ready for the next week. And with some careful math/algorithm, the data from one track can be used to adjust the BOP for subsequent weeks too. This seems a lot better and fairer to me than having humans try to do it.
I think racing on the ring outweighs the BoP issue (taking purchasing the car OUT of the equation). Many other weeks in the ring series have only one car anyway, so it's not so different.
Horrific driving here last night. I will only start from either a podium position or from the pits from now on. It was sickening how terrible people are at driving. Like who in the flying fuck are some of these morons.
No wonder why everyone is running the BMW and I kept getting smoked by them. I only have the 718 and finally had a decent race in it last night, I'm done for the week now.
Good golly, even my missus, who doesn’t drive sims, could not believe the pace disparity on the main straight. You lost time in the tow, then the car behind made 1.3 secs up on that straight. That is ridiculous in the same class of car.
Dave how do you get the overlays working on triples? I thought the overlays only worked when you’re not in full screen but I thought triples need full screen?
30:40 I disagree, the BOP doesn't need to change every week. For big events sure, but Ringmeister is a fixed set and the "BOP" can be easily leveled by forcing particular setups.
They either don't care or are too incompetent to BOP the cars properly. Works out well for them when you have to buy every car at $12 a pop to stay competitive every week!
I tried this three times and my SR dropped from 3.6 to 2.4 and I lost 600irating. The Daytona 24 attracted allot of unsafe racers it seems. Me driving the Aston isn't helping matters either lol
It's really weird to me that the BMW is nothing short of abysmal in the normal GT4 series, but the two times it's been in Ringmeister it's been the fastest car by miles. It must be something majorly off with the Ringmeister setup.
I have raced 11 races here and 8 of them with Porsche because i like the Porsche and I love Nords. First few races i didn't mind... I am here to have fun and good time. But then I started to have bit of frustration because the only way to keep up was to push as hard as I can (my laps were just like yours the best was 7:04 something) and before the straights to be in 0.4 maximum gap. Without that I had no chance to do anything. And last thing for me was prey if something will happen and I gain free positions. I didn't liked that at all and had to switch and buy BMW. Because at the end of the day no one wants to loose irating just because .... Right ??
I hate the BMWs even so I had the car in real life and is amazing, but on racing them dont win nothing in GTs, it is like a Mustang, Corvette, .... I refuse to buy it but I love the Nords too !
you guys netcoded @25:52 going into to the kink and it followed into the next corner. he could have gone wider or just given up challenge to attack at another corner.
OK...I don't iRace, but when you're running down the straight and flat out in 6th and you're not getting close to redline, don't you need to adjust your gear ratios a tiny bit? Maybe the BMWs are geared better.
Surprise, surprise, a front engine, rear wheel drive car, is quickest on a track with lots of high speed corners, and not so many hairpins and traction zones. Shocker 😂
In real life, cars have unique characteristics and imbalances, so shouldn't a simulator reflect that? If all the cars in the simulator are identical in performance, are you essentially just choosing a car based on its logo and design, with no real distinction beyond appearance? That would make it more like a first-person shooter game where all weapons perform the same, differing only in their skins. Is that what you're aiming for, or should the simulator strive for realism by embracing the diversity of real-world car dynamics?
@ I understand BOP I just find it unrealistic for iRacing to spend time balancing the advantages of every car for every track and every weather condition. I agree they could do a better job but at the end of the day it is what it is. If you want the best car for the track then race the fastest one for that track. I mean it only costs you $12 to have the fastest car. This race was pretty exaggerated for the BMW. Most tracks are not that bad. I just feel it is an unfair judgement and developers time could be better spent in other areas.
Seems like more people are finally waking up to what iRacing has become. The driving standards are just a reflection of the direction it's been going for a long time. This is why people make the World of Warcraft analogy. It's no longer about balance or quality; it's just about money and player count. The community deserves better than what they're getting.
The sim or game is much better than competition, but the fact them dont accept criticism and manage most social media very weel, is terrible. All other sim or game failed in SR !
Anyone that does any of these races that require any BOP across multiple cars can not expect to have a correct BOP. It’s not Balance of PErformance it’s Better of Payments. Whoever pays more or iracing like at that point will get the better car.
Hi dave. Iracing actually is putting me, and probably many many others in trouble. I love iracing, it s now 14 years i am on the service, but i think they slept on their success. We allways knew how wrong their tyre model is and other sims like lmu are showing how wrong they are. The bop is also a never ending problem. And changing it every 3month is weird, is it part of the business to make setup shops sell more ? Could be. And honestly making money is not a problem, but if you do money you HAVE to be the top of the top, and they aren't, they should better react ,and fast. Losing customers against a pre-release sim is not acceptable with the budget iracing do have. What do you about it?

Is 27" your preference have you tried 32"
Yes I've had triple 40" and 32". I really like the 27". Great compromise 👍
If you are going for 27 triples, u can also consider a 49 ultrawide

Dave how do you get the overlays working on triples?

No, you don't need full screen or even surround to run triples on iRacing 👍
Full screen, windowed mode. There's a selection for it.

Acura is dominating gtps almost 2 years they dont care
What is the spec on Julia’s PC
7950x3d and a 3090 although I was using my pc for this race 👍
Nobody makes a move in that section lol
The bop will always change,so people buy the new best car, and I racing makes more money.
From what i've heard the bmw is kinda terrible everywhere outside of ringmeister. Heck for the roar every other gt4 had like -2% power
Hi dave. Iracing actually is putting me, and probably many many others in trouble. I love iracing, it s now 14 years i am on the service, but i think they slept on their success.
We allways knew how wrong their tyre model is and other sims like lmu are showing how wrong they are.
The bop is also a never ending problem. And changing it every 3month is weird, is it part of the business to make setup shops sell more ? Could be.
And honestly making money is not a problem, but if you do money you HAVE to be the top of the top, and they aren't, they should better react ,and fast. Losing customers against a pre-release sim is not acceptable with the budget iracing do have.
What do you about it?
I'm off to buy a bag of feathers
F the BOP. Drive the car you enjoy! lol.
