Great racing George, love the commentary in your videos.
Glad you like them!
Oh and it was a cheeky response to your weaving ;-)
Haha no stress. I was trying to cover off the inside line incase you got close enough to make a move but I decided you weren't getting close enough which was why I then moved back the outside for the corner entry
Oh ain't that a beautiful Audi... Good race mate 🙂
Hey! I actually checked out your videos after the race! Yeh it was a good one
Have been enjoying the content! I've been getting into iRacing more lately, and it's refreshing to see from the perspective of another average racer. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot! It's nice to hear from so many other people who are starting out like me
"I'm gonna respect the cold tires"... You really have come a long way 🤣
Not a great SR result but good finish! I got the Honda because the racing looks way fun in your videos. I think the car is a blast to drive but I need to learn how to be fast again. My it has dropped to 590 so I desperately need to put together some good finishes. I’m not having a good time with that across any series right now unfortunately. Good race and maybe sometime I’ll end up in a TCR race with you. I can’t seem to find a time slot that splits
I'm no expert on the class at all but I'll paste what I said in another comment here.
For the Honda, the way I found time was working out how to turn the car and be on the brakes at the same time without it just spinning out. Basically, just had to be really really gentle with the brake pedal and steering and then I started finding a lot of time. It's definitely a car you have to finesse not brute force. The fixed series tends to split in the evenings Europe time if you want to find a race with more people at your IR.
I'm going to create a discord at some point and I'll start posting in there when I am racing. But keep racing the touring cars and you will definitely see me at some point!
16X ooooo the tension!
Haha it had me scared Andy
@@Deckchair_Racing lol, is it wrong to admit that I was kinda hoping for 1 more X on the last lap just for the comedy value of the DQ? 😁
I have a PCC video where I get disqualified by someone rear ending me and giving me a 4x which was brutal. I also drove the last 30 minutes of the PCC 4 hour rather 1 incident point away from a time penalty which would have absolutely f'ed me if I picked it up. That was a scary half hour haha
George what happens when you decide you're into this enough to warrant new gear and a sim rig? :D Good race!
Honestly, I'm hoping the deckchair stays with me. I don't think it really hinders my ability to drive that much, it is just very uncomfortable for more than a few hours though haha
Maybe a rig that the deckchair can just slot into?
I wanted to like the tcr so I bought the Honda and I hate it. I know it’s a different style with front wheel drive, but it regret buying it. That is where I wish you could do more test drive before you buy or at least time limit where you can get an exchange credit because now I’m nervous on any car purchase.
100% agree. I did the same thing. I'm trying to like the car but the FFB sucks and the car seems very slow.
I agree that more testing time or some kind of exchange scheme would be good addition to the game. And I also regretted buying the Honda when I first got it. The touring cars are so different from anything else I have driven. But once you the get the hang of them, they are so satisfying to drive. The thing that really helped the Honda click for me was moving the brake balance to 55% rather than the 71% it is set by default
Close one lol
I was convinced the DQ was coming ahah
@@Deckchair_Racing Oh yeah I was holding my breath toward the end! 😂
No idea how people are hitting 1.52s on that track. I was ecstatic to hit a 1.56
Yeh there are some absolute monsters out there. My absolute best of the weekend was a low 1.54 but that was definitely not the average. I found that the thing that got me faster was trying to always be on the brake or the accelerator. For the Honda anyway, I started to work out how to turn the car and be on the brakes at the same time without it just spinning out. Basically just had to be really really gentle with the brake pedal and steering and then I started finding a lot of time
sugestion for you george, speed up most of the race and milk the highlights with commentary, like you prooved you ca do in the other channel.
best of luck and keep at it
Thanks Bernardo. I'm going to try and do another of those compilation videos because they are fun to make, they just take a LOT of time is the problem
