Thank you! I am really trying to learn as much as I can at the moment. Being part of the team is great now, as I have people way faster then me helping me improve. I am really enjoying the challenge of it all, and helps that I am a very competitive person haha.
Love the video bro It’s Ed here and I think i speak for Rick as well but it’s was awesome racing with you and appreciate you taking the time sit down and have a chat with us boys. It has been the highlight of my conversations all week and look forward to racing in the future. Keep up the good work and the great content my man 🤙 Cheers for the shout out too Up The Kiwis
Hey Ed, I'm also a kiwi - how did you sort out the Ping issues. I tried LFM, but it was almost unplayable, my car kept teleporting. Did you race at a certain time?
sucks aye bro no tips or tricks man hopefully Evo accounts for us down under! I’ve been mid race going alright then I’m the only one on the map it bloody sucks!@@philipmuldoon7434
Absolutely love this track, like you I’ve grown up watching the legends of Australian motorsport tackle the mountain each year. I’m not going as quick as you, my best is a 2.04.7 but I still enjoy myself.
Honestly, most of the time its an achievement just to get around a lap here haha. It gives me so much respect for the guys and girls who have taken on the mountain in real life though.
Late for the show, but as always amazing video mate! Really miss racing on my own as I’m deployed at the moment and your videos are just amazing to watch.
I keep trying to drive the Porsche but Bathurst always bites, I struggle with any kind of pace. Just when you think you have it figured out you clip a wall and it is over.
@@BradleySettersMotorsport I'm finding now that lowering the rear end a couple of mm and taking off a click of rear wing is helping a great deal in its "snappyness"
@@BradleySettersMotorsport I've not felt a huge difference with the fuel load in the balance. Speed for sure with less weight to brake but can also be dependant onm tyres too
Right now I am at 186 hours in ACC, and nearly 40 of those are in the last 2 weeks actually. I try and get a few hours of track practice before jumping into any race for a week. Using some data to see where I can improve round a lap and trying to find consistent pace so I don't end my own race. I am probably taking it too seriously at the moment, but I'm a competitive person haha.
Great video again Brad, fantastic results and times I can only dream of! Love Bathurst, got my first league (not LFM) win there in Ferrari Challenge series - down more to being able to keep it on track than being fastest guy out there 🤣 Look forward to the next instalment
Thank you once again! The team guys are pushing me hard to help find the pace. You have summed up the best way to win at Bathurst though. It can all go wrong so so quick!
grats on you getting on a team, for 10 years of not doing this, you are doing very well with this racing, grats bro, and your videos are doing well as well, keep it up :D
Cheers mate! So thankful to the team for giving me a go, they are helping me learn so much. Certainly will keep pushing on all fronts! Keep us updated on your driving progress with the wheel.
@@BradleySettersMotorsport well im relearning everything, since i started with the ideal line and thats not even good to practice with, so i took it off and in the process of learning all the tracks, trying to get consistent LFM rookie times, then eventually i wanna join LFM, i learned about apexs and race lines from my dad cause he raced a bit when he was younger IRL, but im still gonna watch track guides as well cause the ideal line assist just holds me back, just i got rid of it
Yea it is a bit of a re learn. I wouldn't worry about learning all the tracks before you start LFM. There are still some tracks that I haven't driven yet. Remember that a LFM season is 2 tracks each week. So you can focus on learning the tracks as they come. Probably focus on the licence track to start with.
Cheers Jack! Honestly I am surprised I did not have more chaos in this video, I really did expect a lot of pain. Pro Series again this week? There was no chance I was going to race at Nords last week haha.
That's awesome! If you have the patience, try get over the 95 SA in the game, so you get the rating boost in LFM when you set your licence. Something I wish I did before I started.
@ ohh ok I wasent aware of this il keep the grind on. Honestly racing to build my Safety rating against the bots is making me a better driver. The overtakes are more satisfying aswell when they are done cleanly.
Yea its great practice. You can trust them, so its good to practice driving close behind and constructing your pass. You wont get that situation when you first start LFM rookie. So enjoy the time to learn now haha.
Great!!! And I also really love this track. There is no other track that gives you that strong immersion, especially on the hill. A track where u really need big balls to go full speed *g*.... Keep up the good work and give us more of this interesting stuff! btw: do you have a live streaming agenda?
Thanks Roy! Couldn’t agree more. I hold my breath the whole way down the hill haha. So pleased you are enjoying the videos though. I am working on the thought of streaming currently. I honestly didn’t think people would want to watch early on, but I would like to interact with everyone more often. So keep an eye out!
Nice racing man! I recently started on LFM Rookies and also driving the M4..(I'm much slower).. Bathurst was a total disaster for me this week. Funny my best race I also ran out of fuel on the final lap 😂... Every other race I tangled with other vehicles picking up huge damage. I also really struggled entering skyline and loosing the rear leading to massive damage.
Thank you! I could imagine rookies being a pure chaos on the mountain. There are 3 spots I find you have to be so carful not to carry too much into, and Skyline is one of them. I think a lot of people do actively avoid racing there, as I noted the numbers were down for most of my races. You can’t shy away from the challenge though!
Thank you! Don't really know enough to give specific setup advice sorry. I use a Go Setups subscription and I find it really good at most tracks I go to, and also it saves needing to find good free set ups each week. But still learning the ins and outs of setups at this stage.
Been asked this a few times actually. There isn't a good video that explains it well that I have found. So I will try do a video on it at some point for you.
I think kiwi have put a solid claim on Bathurst being a home track in last number of years haha. Granted in ACC it’s the closest we have to home court advantage!
@@BradleySettersMotorsport just kidding. I remember watching Peter Brock on tv all the time when I was a kid. Never knew he was australian till now, thought he was kiwi lol. Awesome videos Brad, I play acc everday these days. Loving it. Saw all your videos comparing cars, races etc. I suck. Lol, my fastest hungaroring is 1:54. And that's me giving all I've got. You aliens doing 1:42 ... Wait for me, I'll keep racing.
No, I know we don't want to be associated too close to those Aussies haha. Just keep chipping away at the ACC mate. You will find things start to click at some point, but in the meantime don't try too hard to over drive the track. Focus on good exits rather then being later on the brakes, and you will be surprised how much faster you start going.
Bathurst on LFM rotation is always love - hate relationship. In my splits it's mor Hunger Games than a race. The key is to survive but no matter how much i try, there always will be SA hit. Still going fill speed on the mountain is awesome. Some highlights from last week was a race where i qualied 9th, i overtakem one car during race and finished 2nd. And another race when i connected very late and 15 seconda bedore race start it started to rain. I was one of the few that managed to switch tires. Started 19th, finished 6th. Verstapen vibe on that one :D
wow what user interface hud is this? really like the tire app, position display track etc... it all looks like if they were og assetto corsa modded apps! great racing!
that livery looks really nice. i like to drive on mount panorama, but i like it the same way as i like nords, just drive there. i avoid races on nords and mount panorama :)
It is a great looking car! I found the races at Bathurst certainly lacked the same numbers as other weeks, so I feel a lot of players do that same as you. I can understand why haha.
I had an invite to join West Competition Racing on the academy team. They use the BMW for all the team endurance races, so it’s a good chance this week to start getting my head around it all. I’m not bound to just use it though, so the Ferrari will still get plenty of racing.
Picked up your yt channel recently and really enjoying the progression feel of the videos and your story. You have a very nice commitment man good job. I have around a year or two of sim driving under my belt moving from drifting to gt3 racing, dunno why but finding it so fun, currently at around 200 hours in Acc with similar skill set as yours. I mostly done hotlap modes and AI races across various tracks and maybe a few online races through official servers in Acc. I've never tried this LFM thing and I don't really know how it functions do you have any tips on how cam I start getting more serious with my online driving so I can see where I stack up against others and how I get this "rating"?
Thank you! I'm so glad you are enjoying them. It sounds like you would be a great fit for LFM. Drifting to GT3 would be quite the challenge haha. So you want to go to lowfuelmotorsport.com and sign up. You then need to complete a licence test, which should be no issue for you I think. And then start signing up to race! You sign up for a race on the website, and then find the race in the online servers using the race number. As its all linked to the stream account, you can only access races you are signed up to through the sight. But there are some really good tutorial videos on all of those points on the sight in the Q&A section. Its a blast to race in LFM though, and I think you'll fit right in!
Yea technically LFM is completely seperate from ACC. They give ACC the proper ranking organisation that the game lacks for its online racing. LFM is totally free as well.
There are parts of this game that have really clicked for me. The coaching session really helped early on, and I am now much better at self critiquing my driving. But I am a really competitive person and am probably taking it all too seriously haha.
Great racing Bradley, how are you finding the M4 compared to the 296? I've played 90% of my time in the BMW so always like to hear how it compares to the other manufacturers on the grid.
Thank you! Umm very different haha. Front engine means a lot more understeer, so more focus on the trail braking needed to get the car to turn. Far more stable at the rear, so some braking zones around Bathurst the BMW is way more confident in. And the shift point is completely different, so I have to retrain the brain to not shift too early haha. A very nice challenge though, and I think I'm starting to work it out.
Thank you! Yea I am enjoying the BMW. Helps that I have team mates who know the car inside out. Giving me lots of tips to unlock the speed. Its really different to the Ferrari, so its growing my skills quite a bit.
@ that’s great man ! Very nice to hear ! I enjoy watching your videos. Have since day one, so keen to see the progress over the next few months. You thought about streaming at all ?
@@Kayden_Busarello I have been thinking about the streaming. I thought it was something for further down the line, but the channel started out better then I could have ever imagined! Would love to spend more time with the audience, so watch out for some streams soon hopefully 😊😊
This one for me I feel is all about years of watching cars going around here. I’ve seen all the fast laps, and all the crashes haha. It really was a help actually, and why I call it a home track haha.

Hey Ed! Was the highlight of my week as well mate 🤙 See you guys in a race soon!
can’t wait 🤙
Hey Ed, I'm also a kiwi - how did you sort out the Ping issues. I tried LFM, but it was almost unplayable, my car kept teleporting. Did you race at a certain time?

Love your Livery mate, and some nice driving.
Thank you! Its a great livery right?! The Pro car for the team looks amazing as well. I'm pretty lucky to get to run it.
I only did one race at Bathurst. The Porsche is a bit of a handful around there and much harder than I thought it would be
I keep trying to drive the Porsche but Bathurst always bites, I struggle with any kind of pace. Just when you think you have it figured out you clip a wall and it is over.
I am still yet to give the Porsche a good crack. I'm convinced it would be a handful at every track!
@@BradleySettersMotorsport I'm finding now that lowering the rear end a couple of mm and taking off a click of rear wing is helping a great deal in its "snappyness"
Do you find that changes based on fuel load though? The way I understand it is the balance of the car changes a lot from full fuel to low fuel?
@@BradleySettersMotorsport I've not felt a huge difference with the fuel load in the balance. Speed for sure with less weight to brake but can also be dependant onm tyres too
I have to ask, how many hours of ACC have you clocked in? And how long did you practice this track?
