Do You Make These 5 Overtaking Mistakes? [Sim Racing]

Love this guy

My favorite way to overtake in f1 is by driving up the guys asshole until I make him nervous and he fucks up

Great videos 👌👍

❤️

Thank you, this was great!

PATIENCE. My worst trait in racing, if it’s lap 1 and I’m in 2nd I can’t stand it and have to get in front immediately. Definitely patience, patience, I need to learn some patience. But damn it is so hard to be patient!

I have been racing for years. lately the amount of times drivers punt me or spin me to win is getting frustrating. It seems i can get hit, race ruined, they drive on not enough damage to ruin their race. I was racing safely they get rewarded for dirty moves.

@ Driver61- Kind Sir! Thank you for sharing your endless amount of car racing knowledge and wisdom; we do appreciate you very much! Thank you.

please send this vid to verstappen

you driven in the endurance series b4 ?

here i am playing with a keyboard and still watching these videos 🙃

I think we need bigger consequences for contact in iracing. It happens to much and it's just a Sim is no excuse. I'd rather have a clean average race then a good dirty race. I'm not talking about rubbing I'm talking about lunging

Vision is a big thing, if I follow a car almost on bumper, I hardly see anything. I often slow down a bit to get a better vision again.

I know this is off topic for this video but your trail braking videos have made me significantly quicker and more planted and confident on the track. Thank you VERY much for these detailed and easily understandable explanations!

I can't even see the track when someone in front of me 🤣

Gt sport players. There are places to overtake, and places not to overtake. Stop trying to pass everything in turn one lol. It doesn't help that the penalty system seems to be broken or turned off lol.

also, drafting is a thing

I think it’s hilarious the difference in people behaviour IRL, ya know when people can actually die and shit

Getting back into simracing with your videos make me way better within a few sessions than the many hours I drove in the past. Thank you, competing for top 100 in RR competitions now, instead of top 500 like when I just got back into it.

How in reality to brake on sim racing: Use my back bumper instead of the brakes...

You should do some laps in a sim, with a eye tracker, to show what youre doing, and where youre looking!

"taking 2 drivers out of the race"... At monza it's more like 5 to 7 drivers. lol.

Scott you're the man. Love your channel. Would love to take lessons with you at some point but I spent it all on the gear.

I am too optimistic sometimes, but also is nice to follow the others cars with safety

Excellent video, the sad thing is, i feel like the people who are watching this video, are not the people who NEED to watch this video!!! Great points, glad that i pretty much do them all already :D

One mistake i made in a real kart race was using a shadow as my braking point, because when a cloud came I had no idea where to brake

Do you have an email to contact for the sim school? You’re an amazing teacher and have helped me already

I'm kinda the opposite TBH. I wonder how I can improve on that. Whenever I'm fighting with others etc., I'm doing fine, but when I have free track and opponents far behind, I start making mistakes. IDK if I'm losing concentration back then, or what, but I'll start making a really stupid mistakes and often just DNF after getting a good lead.

On motorcycles for which I was a professional rider trainer for both road, off road and track .. the mantra was 'You go precisely where you look' .... So if you watch the backside fo the bike in front, guess what.

People struggle with observation. One should be looking forward to the furthest vision point, the next 100 mtr ... then forward to that vision point and then 100 mtr ... a constant cycle ... Look through, past and around the vehicle in front. Whilst one has to recognise their existence, do not focus your activities - on their activities .

I missed one: monkey see monkey do. Close up, guy in front makes a nervous mistake, I just follow in his trail, we both mess up

The female fertile quit consequentially wonder because knot micrencephaly suppose throughout a unbiased passbook. awake, juicy adult

Please educate people not to use the car in front as a braking machine, they are born with left foot for some reason

Where is my comment? I made a comment that you also should do a video about defending. And I had a question about a specific situation. So I put a link to a other you tube video. Is that the reason my comment dissapear?

When I heard you voice I was like: this guy sounds familiar *checks channel name* *realizeation*

Thanks for your advices, it helps many sim Racers like me to perform more fun in races.

I've been torpedoed so many times in iRacing... :-(

The patience thing , More people need to apply that from what I've experienced :)

Thank to explain everything good. Hope lot of people will see that videos... My it's what I learn since years of Racing/simRacing, but yes driver still do that kind of mistake to overtake. And can ruin all your work...

One of my biggest problems is fatigue. I can do about 30min after that my performamce really drops off and I start making a lot more braking mistakes. Do you have any tips for that?

One thing I still struggle with is that I overshoot my brake marker sometimes, because I'm further away from it and / or the car I'm trying to overtake is obscuring it. I'm using the recommended FOV, so lower than the default settings for sure, but that shouldn't matter right? Any tips?

I swear this man is describing my entire session when I get in the sim rig. I have zero patience and mess up my entire race.

Break: Separate or cause to separate into pieces as a result of a blow, shock, or strain.
Brake: Make a moving vehicle slow down or stop by using a brake.

All great content as always Scott. It would also help if drivers realised there is someone much faster approaching them and give a little race room. I am always aware of those approaching from behind and if they are quicker I let them by to fight another day.

When you have common sense, but still desperately need to hear someone say it. (Thanks)

assetto corsa has 4 laps. :( wreck them or be wrecked.
