First and only time at Roebling Road. No practice day, just straight into warm up, qualifying, race. Weather was low to mid 90s with humidity above 80%. I'm sure a 1:20 is there for me next time, maybe a 1:19 eventually.

What is a "professional" race car driver and why the people you think are pros probably aren't.

Of course, there is so much racing out in the world that it's impossible to explain all of the different scenarios. All levels of motorsports have insanely talented people, and a surprising amount of what you think is "pro" racing is just the same thing you'd see at your local NASA or SCCA weekend event but with 10 times the money. There are some lucky and talented people that are skilled enoug...

Can we forgive this person already 😂😂 ( I’m talking about the song if ur volume is off )
Awesome save at 0:52
Very good video. You are not a 'Professional' until your PRIMARY INCOME comes from driving a racing car. Those people are very rare and it is a huge achievement to get there. I always have issue with people calling themselves a Pro when they are not earing their living from racing. If you get paid a little money you are a semi-pro and anything else you are an amateur. Does not sound as sexy but it is the truth.
Yes, that thermometer says 117 degrees in the cockpit
He said 7 seconds...... 15 seconds is an eternity lol
@@Thorgious The rule for NASA is you have to be out within 15 seconds
Only other time you move that fast is to get to the bathroom post traffic
yeah, I miss racing so bad.
Thats was fast !
Ah yes, the dark taint of racing.
Great well explained video. Not enough people know this about our sport. A lot of smoke and mirrors. I like the point that a lot of drivers that pay their way are just as talented as the "pros". While it is true, a LOT of those you see on TV might be normal people operating on play money as their hobby, I think your POV is limiting to a lot of those in this industry, at every level no matter how public facing, who work hard to put food on the table doing this and are without a doubt professional drivers. These are coach/anchor drivers, drivers with sponsorships that don't get paid unless they provide marketable opportunities for the companies they represent (i.e. race, no way around it), and teams that use one "pro" car to promote their rental car. It's unfair to box these people as amateurs, because it is their job. Not a hobby. A professional is someone who does something for a living. A professional who races with and coaches an Am (who funds the team) is still a professional racecar driver because they are, in fact, racing a car and getting paid to do it. Heck, even "pay drivers" racing in the lower levels of the sport accept a salary off their funding and prize money based on results. No race organization or sanction that I know of is solvent enough to cover the costs of teams solely on winnings. "Factory" efforts are just marketing like every other company or individual investor that backs racers. By lumping any driver, no matter their talent or upbringing, in the box "amateur" because they accept their check from a source other than a manufacturer, or that they had more (or less) resources to get there than others, you eliminate a lot of talent at EVERY level of the sport and damage the sport. My $0.02.
Professional = you are doing it as your profession, you are doing it for work.
"for work" to me implying it's your primary income. Otherwise, it's a hobby or side hustle you happen to make money doing.
@@TaylorGoesFast I think that's the correct definition.
How much money does it take to go racing It takes all of it
you should do a video on the path that those top level talent folks go through, how much it costs, and how more often than not the top, highest paid (NASCAR, F1, Indy) drivers had opportunities and funding that most people don't have access to. I.E. explain the costs to go from karting to F1 and how much each piece costs and the average sponsor package each team is actually able to secure.
That would be interesting! I tend to just do videos about things I know personally without having to do much research. That certainly would be out of my wheelhouse!
Awesome info for those that care. More breakdowns please, I think we all need a reminder/lesson or two. Nothing more enjoyable than racing others that are clean, fast and respectable.
Always open to suggestions for content to review or analyze as well! I don't get into enough sketchy stuff on track to have the footage for frequent analysis, haha.
One on the inside. If you know you're going to get passed, and the passer gets in your peripheral like they're supposed to. You're not supposed to impede the passer.
I guess I was wrong.
This is extremely well said
Green E36 on the right stalled and the brown one overtook his position very risky
I'm the green E36 and I did not stall. There was never a green flag waved so I did not go. I was correct. The only flag flown in this clip is a yellow at the start stand (incorrectly) and a red/yellow at turn 1.
右の赤い車が前の黒い車を追い越したからですね、スタート後規定距離までは追い越し禁止、ただスタート出来ない車は追い越し可。
This is almost a trick question since you can't actually see the cause. The red and yellow is an "aborted start". These flags were displayed because there was an incident in the wave in front of us that would not allow our group to start.
False start? Idek what happened but I wish I could race
Close. It is related to the starting procedure but you can't see the cause in this clip because it's actually due to something the class ahead did. A false start would not result in the race being halted.
The search has started for a car of my own. Mid-Ohio is only a few hours from me. 8)

Let's see them at 150
@2:18 Massive divebomb LOL
@@StratosZeroK not really. I had enough grip in reserve to back out if they turned in. They didn't turn in so I eased off the brakes and continued to the Apex. There was no risk there. Dive bomb is a dirty word
@@TaylorGoesFast "Not really"? Have you ever heard of a thing called the vortex of danger? I doubt it, even though it should be basic knowledge for anyone venturing on the track around other people. There are major flaws on your racecraft (which is ok to a certain extent), but instead of recognizing them and research and work on fixing it you chose the Senna route of coming out with a silly "explanation". A sign of the times I suppose.
@@StratosZeroK Yes, I'm fully aware. I am a competition school coach, certified instructor, and I have published several videos on this very topic which are used by various groups to teach drivers the rules of passing and how to do it safely. I spend a lot of my time guiding others on the rules of racing and specifically, passing. What you're missing here is that you can put your car somewhere risky if you have the ability to back out of it if the other person turns in. I was not in the "Vortex of danger" approaching the apex as the other driver could very clearly see me out of their window when they were turning in and if they didn't and they went for the apex, I had enough available grip and was slow enough to back out before there was an issue. I'd recommend you not be so condescending while you're regurgitating buzz words you've heard and check out of my videos on the rules of passing and the "Right to the line", specifically the section on "showing the nose" to understand what happened in that turn.
Hope to join you guys real soon
There was a gap. Shoulda gone for it
Lots of things learned from this. Thanks for sharing!
It’s very true that even running at normal track day it still requires a lot of funding on your own for normal workers. Driving fast is a costly habit
I need this in my life!!
that feeling never goes away
I am going to use this video in training for our seat rentals Thanks for this
@@teknoprep be sure to pass along any feedback in case there's anything I should update!
Debris on the track
Cool!
The left foot tap on the brakes before a heavy braking zone does a couple things 1) gives the driver a chance to confirm their brakes still work normally a few hundred feet before the braking zone 2) "sets" the brake pads closer to the rotor for better pedal feel. This is especially important after going across rumble strips/curbs/gators that cause significant pad "knock back"
You didn't give anyone a chance to answer 😅
@@Xfishf00D More of a thought provoking question than a quiz.
the praises of the Pittsburgh International Race Complex
a cool Track
Exactly what i was searching for everywhere on google but couldnt find you explained each and everything in great detail thanks a lot.
My god so many bmw
as there should be
Damn. I shift WAAY too much compared to this video.
@@robloyst4514 if we're talking iRacing, that sim rewards shifting way more than you might in real life. Going down to second on an H pattern car in real life is pretty hard and risky to try
Is there a car in iracing or any of the others that “feel” like your real car?
@@robloyst4514 the mustang fr500s is by far the most realistic car compared to any RWD car someone normal is going to drive or race on track. I use it and the legacy Mx5 cup car for practice, although that car is mostly for more similar lap times. There really isn't much else on the service that's similar to a production based race car under $100,000.
My fav track in iRacing! Would love to do it for real. I’d probably kill somebody though lol
vir I've been there before
Good wheelin out there brother
Hey great race! Just some viewer feedback. The camera location is a bit low so we can’t see over the dashboard
@@brycemcguire8935 for sure. This was an extra camera I threw on my helmet before the race. I couldn't find a way to get it higher without blocking my own view out the visor or hitting the roll cage or other safety equipment. I have the actual footage from the other cameras posted as well.
Top left is new pavement 1:32.4 - This lap is very sloppy and should have been a 1:31 with ease, but I haven't had enough time on the new pavement to string it together yet. Bottom right is old pavement 1:34.4 Exactly a year apart. Same car, same driver. Rebuilt factory diff and thicker front ARB and some rebound adjustments on the shocks are the differences in set up. There is a 1:30 out there easily for a Spec3. The new pavement is worth 2 seconds easily. Turn 1 is almost 10 mph faster now and the octopus has a lot more grip on entry, mid, and exit.
A couple more notes to make clear 1) Normally I'd be well into 5th on the straight, but I was 6 ish mph slower this lap due to letting that car by on the last turn 2) That weird howling is my transmission 3) I also was experimenting with not shifting to 4th in turn 6 on this particular lap. I don't think that's the fastest way through there 4) Turn 1 was completely botched on this lap. I overslowed quite a bit and didn't even need to use that outside curbing like normal I did not string together a "perfect" lap at all over the weekend, or even get close.
The guy in front is the one that is a little off. This track is VIR I been on it and around it a few times. Awesone track.
to be honest I didn't even realize that mustang was all over the place when I made this. I just tried to grab a clip from my HPDE days with something interesting in front :D
