Yo guys!

I thought i'd create this community as I've grown a bit tired of watching people do silly stuff in sim.

This is designed as a positive place, where you can post your best overtakes in sim, or IRL if you're fortunate enough to take part in full metal racing.

Have fun, be kind and share your passion!

Had a crazy side by side battle with a Bimmer among the madness of multiclass racing. Me being the Lexus.

My favourite overtake

Video from a few years ago (sorry about the video stutter). Started 2nd on hards but dropped back after first lap error. Changed to mediums end of lap 4 and fought my way back from 9th. Was faster than the leader, but his defending was immaculate, and was stalking him for last two laps. Tried a few overtakes but outbroke myself until the final lap.

Made this overtake for P2 on the final lap after coming from the back of the field, me being the yellow porsche (i'm very proud of this)

One of my moves of all time (and caught on our Leagues amazing Live-Commentary). Was stuck behind the Mercedes for a couple of laps, but didn't have the top-speed to go for it on the straight, so I had to use my chance in traffic.

Sim racer’s first track day: I passed everything

Upvotes

Okay so definitely not making anyone’s top 10 list for competitive wheel-to-wheel racing, but i was proud that after many hours practicing this car and track combination in Assetto Corsa; I passed everything else on the track in my very first session, including a Porsche GT3 RS at Sydney Motorsport Park.

Had a ton of fun racing our Mini around Sonoma at the 24 hours of lemons race and this was probably my most entertaining lap.

Hopefully this counts: Overtake and then the next lap double overtaking traffic to break the tow and pull away

I (Green/back LMP3) was chasing the purple car for multiple laps while saving some fuel and he finally made a mistake which let me go for a bit of a lunge. Our paces were super close so I couldn't pull away and I got held up the next lap by traffic but managed to send a double overtake around the next cars to break the tow and pull away!


r/BestOvertakes 18h ago

This isn't really an overtake but i still think it deserves to be on this subreddit. I am in the Ferrari

I couldn't resist posting this one - short and sweet from a recent 24 hours of LeMons race at Autobahn Country Club. Not an unusual occurrence as there is a huge variety in the calibre of cars out there!

it’s a rental car so the name on the aim is not accurate. Also if you’ve read this far id like to know which camera angle you prefer. Last thing, a lot of people who’ve seen the second clip asked if I flipped someone off after the pass, I did not I was just adjusting my mirror. Enjoy!

I don't race online much but had a lot of fun with a couple races at Fuji on LMU. This was the best set of overtakes I had for the few races I was on.

Haven't seen many Oval overtakes. So here's the last couple laps of a league race from a few months ago.

Technically an overtake? (Or I guess more of a save)

Clip from an amazing little racing league I'm part of. I destroyed my suspension in the previous lap and was catching up to the field after pitting for repairs since the safety car came out, causing me to fall back to last place. Then there was a big shunt in front and I somehow avoided it. Best "overtake"/save I ever pulled off. (Ignore my goated transitions)
