    Also, stop trying to overtake in every corner. Find overtaking spots on the circuits that will make you lose least amount of time.
    Some examples:
    - Turn 1 at Red Bull Ring is not a good place to make a move because after it there is a long straight with hard braking zone. Instead try to overtake in the turns 3 and 4 (turn 4 leads to twisty section where it is easier to defend)
    - Good overtaking spots at Interlagos are turns 1 and 4, attempting overtakes in the twisty section will lose your time
    There are other examples, write them in the comments if you want.

    • @Super_GT
      @Super_GT  5 ปีที่แล้ว +62

      Yes, I really agree with this. Too many drivers overtake at the soonest opportunity when it isn't the best place to pass. You gotta weigh up the risk but also how much time you will lose from the pass. Often it's better to wait behind and overtake when you lose less time.

    Small tip from me - if you're racing in Race C or the FIA races, then set up a private lobby and replicate the settings. Then run laps with the tyre and fuel degradation and get a better understanding of what the car will do as a race goes on. This will give you a much better idea of what to expect come race time and improve your results.

    @Elliottdetroit 5 ปีที่แล้ว +376

    Here are some my tips that others gave me!
    Trail braking/ coasting- helps with keeping momentum and speed, no every turn you need to slam on the brakes.
    I think using the best car tip is cliche. I prefer to use cars that are best suited to your liking. Whether you're in a open lobby in sport mode use the cars your familiar with.
    Drive YOUR driving line. I've witnessed alot people follow other racers into grass or dirt. Or simply just drive off the track trying to follow another racers driver line.. we've all done it but I've learned if I just race my race and drive my line and not worry what the racer in front of me is doing most of time I wont crash.
    And last but not least! Know how and when to overtake!!!!!!!!!! Dont over take someone midway through the chicane of death on Seaside... dont lunge at someone when theres no opening on turn one on monza... if your faster then someone just wait to over take on a ideal part of the track..
    Oh I forgot...if you run the McLaren F1 gr3.. if you cant keep your car from going side ways in a turn go race another car please....for the love of God your ruining the race for everyone else.

    You don’t need to do one on Forza cause it’s quite simple:
    GT Sport - Move out of the way to make your opponent avoid your slip stream.
    Forza - move out of the way to make your opponent avoid dive bombing you.
    GT Sport - Use the track limits to reduce steering angle and carry more speed into corners.
    Forza - Use track limits to avoid being side swiped or punted.

  • @The.JZA.
    @The.JZA. 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Great video, thanks for the tips! Just expanding on a couple of things you talked about:
    Partial throttle mid corner: Some cars are almost undrivable without partial throttle mid corner. Two examples are the Gr3 458 Italia and Hurucan. These two cars have a very pointy front end, mid/rear engine and are both naturally aspirated. This means that when you lift off the throttle they have a lot of engine breaking and when you turn in, the car rotates very quickly. This can cause the car to oversteer known as “lift off oversteer” even when you feel like you’re not going very quickly (sometimes I feel like the tyre physics is a bit whack, like driving on ice). If you use partial throttle in these cars, just enough so that you’re not engine braking, it’s much easier to turn the car in slow/medium speed corners without it snap oversteering. At higher speeds it’s not so bad because of increased downforce. Conversely there are some cars that have a very strong diff lock under acceleration which can cause understeer so partial throttle during the corner can cause you to drift wide but you can still balance throttle application to get you through a corner without slowing down and without understeering.
    Braking: Its common for people to brake too much into a corner. It’s a fine balance but if you carry more speed with Gr1-4 cars you have more downforce. The trick is to make sure that you release/reduce brake application before turning in so you don’t overwhelm the front tyres and make the car understeer, make sure you turn in at the correct spot and apply just enough throttle to stop the car slowing or lift off oversteering.
    I think that understanding the mechanics of the cars helps a lot with understanding how to make the most of it. The key things to understand would be tyres and not overwhelming them with turning and braking at the same time, limited slip differentials and how they lock up when a torque is applied to them (this can be torque from acceleration or engine breaking) and weight balance of a car such as loading up the front tyres progressively as you turn in or the rear tyres as you exit and how the weight on the tyres changes as you go over crests, through dips, around banked corners etc. Cars are very interesting, technologically advanced machines and their designs vary greatly so having a good understanding of what makes each car unique will help you to get the most out of them. GT Sport has some very realistic vehicle mechanics built in which I think is very cool.

    @bigbrick2297 5 ปีที่แล้ว +47

    I've witnessed strategies for professional GT sport racers and I once watched their replays.
    This is quite clever though
    They adjust their gear ratios so that their
    first gears are long. This gives them better smoothness in power control as they enter low speed turns.This smoothness reduces tyre wear which means that they will have more grip than the rest as the race continues.
    It's no longer about how fast you approach a turn, as long as you turn in smoothly and release the wheel in the same manner, then there's no trouble

    For your number...
    5. Qualify w/ ghost on. Get used to driving as close to it as you can. Helps when racing close w/ other cars.
    7. Watch replay of your practice & use pause to find good breaking markers if the usual ones don't work. Mult markers for the same situation R good if another car is blocking your sight of UR ideal marker.
    8. Experiment in practice to find the limits in each corner. Some tracks have harsher track limits & sometimes only at certain corners (ie Le Mans, Tokyo Expressway)
    9. Slip streaming will increase your speed requiring U to break a tad earlier or change your line. It takes practice to mod your line w/o loosing lots of time or running off track.
    10/11/16. Some high powered cars really benefit by waiting for full throttle untill the car is almost totally streight. Can sacrifice speed but help lots in tire life & faster over the race. Helps to do more of a late apex line.
    15. If a car is more than 0.5 sec behind it's near impossible for them to make an immediate clean pass (watch out for the slipstream)
    17. Back off the throttle / short shift while in slipstream.

    I really only have two things to add to your list.
    Use all the track. The fastest way through corners is in the straightest possible line. This kind of goes hand in hand with your track limits point.
    Always look ahead to the next corner. Your hands go where your are looking. Try not to stare at the car ahead as you will more than likely follow their line, and sometimes off the track

    Great vid Steve, as always!
    There is one point I’d like to add : Brake balance. As braking is one of the most important tasks to learn in a racing game, GTS implements a really nice feature that allows you to choose which wheels brake the most during braking zones. Learn how to use that and you will quickly see your lap times improve! Kie and David always point out how they balance their braking, and it helps a lot, you should def check them out!

  • @ray-Bolantah
    @ray-Bolantah 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Well, if you’re watching this video it’s because you’re trying to get better at the game.
    I started playing about 1 year ago thanks to super GT and I’ve learned a lot from him, but also I’ve learned a lot on my own and here are some tips.
    And this are most COMMON SENSE.
    1) if you’re on a slip stream take that into consideration. Means you have less resistance thus your car will take longer than usual to brake. When I started I didn’t understand this so I’ll punt most of the guys on the braking zone and I didn’t understand why my car would brake quicker when I’m practice.
    2) FOLLOW YOUR OWN LINE.
    When you approach a corner try to turn just as you do when in practice and this is something that even happens in real F1 and supercars races. If you concentrate too much on the guy in front if he goes wide and goes off the track most probably you will as well. And it happens really often in every racing sport.
    3) ADJUST TO DIFFERENT SITUATIONS.
    When you practice enough you’ll know when to brake and when to turn for maximum speed thru corners and to use the entire track on your favor, BUT if you have someone who just launched into the inside of the turn BE AWRE you’re gonna have to go a bit slower then usual on that turn and take a wider line.
    Also if you’re defending into that corner you’re gonna have to brake significantly early so you don’t slide into the other car into the turn.
    It’s a common mistake some guys make and I take advantage by taking the outside and just letting them drive off the track or switch into the inside lane midturn because they took it too fast and missed the apex.
    And most important
    4) KNOW WHEN TO HOLD BACK.
    If you’re in 2nd position and the guy in front is just as fast as you or faster. DONT start attacking halfway into the race. What I’d do is let him know I’m not trying to pass and believe it if he’s fast enough to be in 1st he’ll understand that you’re just trying to build a gap between you and the pack behind. So work with the guy on front and just try to stay close to him and let the rest of the pack stay behind.
    Those are just a few things i wanted to share of what I’ve learned in the short time I’ve racing in this game.
    One last tip, if you’re the guy on 1st and you know for a fact that the driver behind you is just faster then you THEN PLEASE do us all a favor and let him pass. But holding back ( in a dirty manner) a faster driver you’re just putting yourself in a disadvantage because you’ll be wasting time defending and being dirty thus inviting the rest of the pack into the party and at the end of the day you end up going off track and loosing many more positions.
    IF you’re from Brazil or Argentina please ignore that last tip. It doesn’t apply to you, many thanks and don’t reproduce.

    Thank you so much. I switched to a wheel 2 months ago, and I haven't been able to keep up. Everything is going wrong, and I have not been able to figure out what I am doing wrong. I watched this video, and you totally solved it for me. I was not completely straightening out my wheel before smashing the gas. It was something I always did on the controller, but for some reason overlooked it on the wheel. My racing instantly got better. It is something so simple, yet I would not have thought of it without you. Keep up the great videos, love the channel. Again thank you, you've brought the enjoyment back to the game for me.

  • @flatsz

    never played GT Sport, but what I learned from a lot of rF2 and AC is:
    -steering. if you make more than one or two motions (depending on the car) with the wheel into a corner, you're just scrubbing your tires. don't saw the wheel, some shuffling is good for stabilizing the car but in general you want as little movement as the car will let you get away with.
    -brakes. This is where you'll find the most time in most cases. identify where you feel comfortable braking, and try braking just a little bit later, braking as hard as possible without locking up or activating abs. this will force you to get better at threshold braking, which is an absolute must to be competitive, and personally the reason I tend to prefer cars that dont rely on abs like GTEs as opposed to GT3s, because it's a lot easier to identify that threshold.
    -throttle. yeet it.
    -if you aren't willing to churn out 300 laps a day you will always be suck. what do you have a life or something? git gud scrub.
    -no but really, hotlap more. before any big league race I start practicing a month beforehand because I know if I haven't done at least 100 laps in that timespan I have absolutely no chance at the top 10.
    No idea how any of those apply to GTS but yea take what sounds like it applies. Last point probably applies in a scaled down sense.

    I am about as beginner as you can get, to this game, going into my second week. But, having been a professional OTR driver for several years I have a few things that I do. Especially when learning courses. Fuel and tire conservation in long corners under power. If you are holding it in 3rd and are half way or higher up on the tach, shift to 4th. Your torque drops reducing tire wear and chance of spin out, and your rpms drop so you use less fuel. Myself I shoot for anything above 1/3 tach, because I can feel out the corners and see if I can hold it at a higher rate of speed. You have to learn the limits of every car you intend to drive.
    One thing I have noticed about the cone markers help. If you are not using racing tires, they are way off. You need to brake a significant distance further back down the track to be able to get down to proper speed of the corner.

    Really good video Super GT. All good points!
    My two cents on learning a track.
    Use all the learning aids to get an idea of where braking, turn in and apex points are. Then start to find real points on the track that match up closely and start to remove the learning aids. Pay attention to track surfaces, some parts of the track just have more grip. Watch for track cambers. Slight positive camber can increase corner speed and may not be on the suggested racing line. Negative cambers while send you wide. Turn 2 at Panorama is good example. Test the curbs. See how the car reacts. Some curbs can reduce cornering angle, some can help rotate the car and other will send you flying off to the Realm. Concentrate on one thing at a time and watch the time delta, if its a blue up arrow it means that what you just did is an improvement, try to remember what you did or check the replay. To properly master, or at least be competent, at a car/track combo may take hundreds of laps.You should always have a specific goal in mind. Don't just run laps and hope for the best. Be specific, concentrate on one thing at a time, master it and move on the next thing.
    As for driving techniques and race kraft, there are hundreds of videos on youtube, some are done by professional race drives and others by very good gamers.

    Trail braking is possibly the most important thing to learn in GT Sport. I frequently race against a couple of friends i know from karting - so they know racing lines, throttle control etc.
    But i can gain several tenths a corner through proper braking technique, which allows me to close in and carry greater mid-corner speed. Conversely, i lose out most of my time to aliens in the braking zones. Their braking technique is just that touch better than mine, which adds up to about 0,5-1 second a lap.

    *If you have any tips you want to add, reply and we could make this a 'superlist' of tips*
    Additional Top Tips (From a Forza player on GT Sport):
    1.Instead of coasting around corners, make sure that you are applying half throttle instead. The cars don't rotate the same way that they do on Forza and so there is a massive advantage to be gained through a more constant throttle application than i was used to.
    2.Another thing i see in the comments is people claiming that they listen to music whilst they drive: if i listen to music, i genuinely lose about half a second a lap just because my concentration is reduced(!)
    3.Also, i spend more time qualifying than i do actually racing - if i turn up to a race without practice, my results are nowhere near as good as i find myself guessing as to what i need to do in order to go quickly
    4.When watching replays, pay special attention to the gears that top players use - usually i find that top guys are using one gear higher/lower than i use myself, finding these mistakes usually make larger mistakes more clear and it is easier to therefore improve your pace.
    5.If you are nervous when under pressure, you haven't practiced enough ;)

      I totally agree with all your points but the first. Some corners actually need coasting, like Curva Grande in the chicane-less version of Monza or the Flugplatz corner in Nurburgring. If you go half throttle you go wide with certain cars (gr.3 for instance). It’s pretty much a corner-dependent factor.

    I think all these points are solid and things I hadn’t considered, however, 2 points I think are critical. 1. Keep your eyes at the furthest point on the track at all times, you will almost automatically take the best line when you’re following the furthest point 2. Driving in the bumper cam gives me (hopefully you too) the most feedback to the cars movements.

    Sorry another comment here concerning learning the tracks without cone markers. If you go through your main screen game play options you will see a section under campaign called circuit experience. This area will walk you through each section of the track in a timed event. This will then be put together in a single lap timed event. The real important part of doing this is, when you load the section you are working on, in the top right of the screen there is a video with commentary. Only gripe I have with the video is that it is only done in kmh. But, the commentator will point out track details on where to get your general brake points. Some instances I have seen are marker boards, barrier breaks, official booths, etc. The commentator will also give you a broad comment about braking strength, lifting off accelerator, feathering brakes, etc.

    I think I might disagree with the use the best car point, though mostly for players that are a bit less experienced. I think it's a lot more important to use a car you're very familiar with and are comfortable driving, you'll make a lot less mistakes and will put in much more consistent lap times, which before like A+ and S rating that's usually more important that absolute raw speed.

    Biggest tip I would give to someone starting out is get out of your comfort zone. Often times, people starting out in the game try to drive really smooth, and are scared to try new lines. And while yes, driving smooth is good for consistency and all that, you really need to take risks and make daring line choices that you might have not tried before. I know when I was first starting out, and even a little still right now, I would watch some of the fastest qualifying lap replays of guys and see them taking these insane lines where there car is pretty much completely off the track aside from two tires to not get a penalty, and when I would go into qualifying to try these lines, I would end up chickening out. New players will often get scared of spinning out, and it keeps them in a fixed mindset of driving smooth, and is the biggest factor holding them back. There is no consequence to crashing while in qualifying; you have all the time in the world to run laps in qualifying, and if you do crash, you can just hit restart and continue as if nothing ever happened. I wish someone had told me this sooner, as it has been the biggest thing in my progression in GT7, and was the major thing that was holding me back in the lower DR ratings.

    Great video Steve! I think this really sums up most of the things tbf. However from my experience I think its also very smart to join a league or to join a group of friends/other players in (serious) lobbies. I think this really helps you with being consistent, especially because most leagues host endurance races, which do really help your consistency overall. Amd as you know, consistency is key in racing. Not only will it help with that, but I think it also helps with getting less nervous whenever someone is really pushing you because they want to overtake you. Also you can ask the faster guys in that league for tips/tricks for certain tracks/other conditions, for example if you’re really struggling with tyre wear. And last but not least, its also just very fun to get involved in a community/league and to chat with the other people!
    Also a mistake that people make, is that they look were the car is going instead of were they want the car to go, this really helped me out aswell when I started out on GT Sport. Because if you look were the car is going, most of the people will probably automatically bring the car more to that direction were their car is pointing to. And when you actually look in the direction you want the car to go (the apex while entering the corner, and the next straight while exiting the corner) you will automatically bring your car to that direction. When I started out on this game it really helped me to consistently hit the apex of the corner.
    This are some tips I think really helped me out at the beginning, and ofcourse, just practice, practice and practice!

I'm gonna be starting out on Forza Motorsport 7, with a Logitech g29 bundle.

In my 2 or 3 sessions I jumped into online right away and then single play and had a good time, rarely went off track, I did fall behind others with the first corner of each track but that's expected. You can't be a pro on your first day unless you have natural talent.
    But anyway, I enjoy your videos and this guide is handie. Im gonna see if I can find spirited people to guide me on private sessions because there's nothing more I want to do than enjoy driving with other people and not having to smack them off the track at 150mph ;)

      Well, that's exactly what the cones are for. We use them in driving events at the racetrack (for real--I instruct for a few car clubs) and the two cones mean "brake here" and the single cone means "turn in here". Then there's a cone at the apex and another cone at track out. Exactly like what you see in GT. The better technique is to brake a bit after the two cones, and then let off the brake slightly as you turn in, maintaining the brakes (50% or less, this is called trail braking) almost to the apex, then transitioning to power as you pass the apex and track out, with throttle being applied progressively as you unwind the steering wheel. I can't seem to do it with a controller, but that's how its done.

    Don't break multiple times for the same turn. That's the best advice I've ever got. It only comes with practice and learning the track and car. But breaking to much then speeding up only to break again for the same turn. I was told only put your foot on the gas when you're absolutely sure you can pin it. That alone helped me with smoothness. I started to pay attention to breaking instead of going fast. Because in racing, breaking is as important as gas.

    One of the things that I (kinda) kept a secret, that it might help; is that I remapped my controller as to how “Forza’s” is -
    R2/L2 : Gas & Brake
    X/Square : Shift up and down
    It feels like Mini pedals for the fingers to where you can control the braking and gas a bit easier as to how you would with your feet (but not quite). It does require a bit of getting used to (if you run with TC off) but it helps to build-up some “Patience” with the gas and controlling the braking.

    I recommend you drive around at least 10-15 laps in qualifying and check the times. Look at the bottom you will see your optimal times that is the best time you driven through the different sectors. If your best lap time is a second or above your optimal time you need to practice more. Your best lap time should be within 0.5 sec of your optimal time. Then drive a race and see how you do and then go back to do more qualifying if needed.

    Yesterday I was getting kicked out of the races, with the text "you'll get kicked out with the next collision". The problem was, I got those messages while on the rolling start. Four races in a row. Downgraded from SR. A to SR. C in those four races

      Oh god. I went from sr S to sr C / D and stuck in hell. I was a consistent a polite "99" driver, always with the best manners, then East Tokyo narrow walls roughed things up a bit and stuck me with A/B drivers. That descended even more. Now majority of my penalties are by way of mistakes from other c/d drivers despite my proper driving. Admittedly I earned some because I became revengeful and slapped some of them sideways through anger. I also got that red text "You'll get kicked out" line a few times, only mine came seconds before the very end of the race, ironically it was a race I came in first, too. I should add I did nothing wrong that race and it was the other drivers ramming me.

    AWESOME VIDEO! Thank you...
    I've raced cars most of my life and GT SPORT is very close to real life. I've only been Sim racing just over a year. I've had ups and downs. It is very important not to lose your temper when you get wrecked. I would have a lot higher DR if I hadn't retaliated.
    Create a secondary account to race the first couple days of the sport mode A, B, C RACES and to test the penalty system after updates or maintenance. The developers do make mistakes and GT SPORT is ever evolving. I've lost a ton of DR/SR after a development errors. Downloading ghosts from top 10 fastest drivers and practice.
    Gentle going into corners = fast exiting corners and it saves tires and fuel. Hard braking = bad fuel mileage.
    And find the drive layout that fits your driving style. Also PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. RUN RACES IN THE LOBBY AND GET TO KNOW YOUR CARS HABITS AND LEARN HOW TO ADJUST YOUR DRIVING TO DETERIORATING CONDITIONS. I race for Alpha Romeo which maybe the slowest bop gr3 car. But it compliments my driving style. I barely am ever the fastest. But I am able to finish top 5 almost every race from using strategy and it gets faster as fuel burns off and the tires get worn down. But it fits my style. It is probably the most important part of being successful. Gt Sports cars aren't 1 size fits all.

In my case I'm fine with my standard ps4 but i want to get a nice wheel somewhere around the $200 range so if i save 50 a month I'll have the funds within 4 months. So yeah, hopefully you'll get your sweet gear soon man, and maybe I'll see you out on the track! 👌

    As for straightening up before you get on the throttle- ive heard it explained as to imagine a string tied from the steering wheel to the gas pedal, so when coming out of slow corners, straighten up the wheel allows you to push the pedal farther down. Think of it as connected... By a string... Explained badly

  • @Sanjinator1
    @Sanjinator1 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Key point which I mentioned countless times to you and it was how you became faster...throttle modulation.
    The wheel, specifically the pedals, allowed you more leverage than your thumb would (not could).
    It's rare for a person to be able to replicate that degree of demonstrativeness on a thumb stick.
    I happened to be one of them. The top guys DO NOT strictly half-throttle as in your number 10 example.
    Controlling the whole range is vital, from 0-100%. Ranges below 25 allow the car (except FF drivetrain)
    to steer more than it otherwise would, highly beneficial in hugging apexes in hairpins etc.
    50 & above, you covered that part. Without this meticulous utilisation, one will never and I can't stress enough,
    NEVER be as fast as the fastest. If that's the ultimate goal, best learn that shit, proper!
    Think Michael Schumacher's driving style, keep that minimum speed up throughout the corners, don't worry about fast entry/fast exit.
    Jackie Stewart; "minimize the time spent between braking and accelerating". Respect to these 2 Legends.

    Personally i would have put down as number 1 to get a wheel. I so much regret only getting a wheel now. But the difference in style and how you race is amazing. With a wheel you get much more feedback than you can with a controller.
