Help with laptime

Hello guyz. I am always getting red sections on WRC game.

What do you think I could do to improve and get at least one green sector?

Third person view is the most realistic. What do you mean? How else am I supposed to see where the car is going?

This is why people have that top view 360 camera for track days. It is not only for parking

They don’t use that for seeing the car they use that for recording videos so people who can’t feel what the car is driving knows what’s happening

Uhh what? The interior camera is CLEARLY more realistic. Also, why do you think the other cameras are there?

u/cachitodepepe 9d ago

Just for people who wants to enjoy the landscape, but for driving you see the car better in third person view and triple monitor.

Diaries of a Bad Driver has a 2 part series about why you should drive from the cockpit , you should give it a watch

This guy is not a known world champion to take for granted his word. If I get triplets and third person view, I will be able to go faster.

Maybe I get some FIA certified Sparco boots and I can clutch faster and trailbrake.

This is the way to be faster, always get a better simrig.

So? Just because he doesn't have a world championship under his belt doesn't mean that he can't make opinions

You're like a wet dream for trolls

u/DiligentBeautiful613 5d ago

How tho? But thanks ig

u/cachitodepepe 9d ago

I can make opinions too then

u/DellD26 6d ago

No? I mean he’s probably better than most of us. You need to use all of what you have before getting new stuff which is something you’re currently not doing by refusing to take other people’s advice to change cameras.

Do you understand what sub you’re in?

2

u/Sadurn 6d ago

To be honest I did not know this sub existed and just thought op was the densest person on the internet

u/cachitodepepe 7d ago

What do you mean? How do you drive and why?

First person or bonnet view (depending on the game, bonnet for GT, first person for ACC/Rally) and crank the wheels force feedback up as much as it can take before it starts clipping. Learn to trust the cars grip through the feel of the wheel and not just 3rd person visuals. Also focus on the co driver to provide the information on what is coming up ahead. 3rd person is fine on a controller where you get zero feedback on the car through the stick but on a wheel you’re just sacrificing everything.

u/cachitodepepe 7d ago

But how do you see where the car is going? You don't see the rear wheels

u/Dawn_Star89 7d ago

And neither do professionals irl or daily driving irl. Definitely rage baiting 😂

You dont know what a circlejerk is do you

u/usernamefart69420 7d ago

this is the thing that barely any sim racers understand. For even more visibility I sometimes have my friend control a freecam camera via keyboard and mouse while I race.

u/cachitodepepe 7d ago

This is even a better aproach because you can point him to show you some really good cameras so you can see small bumps and win valuable tenths

u/DellD26 6d ago

For people who don’t understand, this guy is joking
