That's cool. I don't know of any US Wingfields but you never know. Are you into sim racing too?

It will depend on the car. In the F3 the tyres will survive a whole race pushing at 100%. In an endurance race such as GT3 you can definitely benefit from stretching the tyres for double or triple stint lengths. In those cases it's usually a case of protecting the highest wear tyre, often FL at Silverstone or Watkins Glenn, or the outside rear at other tracks. For those it's usually about 30% life that the tyres start to struggle. If you're likely to reach that point then it's better to save the tyres rather than scrub or lockup during warmup.

True. It shows the principles though. I hope you find it useful. It might also be worth trying this again in something like a gt3 car that has live temperature readings on the dash.

@@jameswingfieldracing I thought they don’t bother updating the McLaren and other live tire telemetry on dash.

@@jinglesmcgee7256 The black box doesn't get updated but there are additional temperaturesensors for the gt cars that show on the dash

@@jameswingfieldracing the real cars do but if you look here there is no live tire telemetry on the dash ruclips.net/video/Ws9zSdVWfHY/видео.html

@@jinglesmcgee7256 It doesnt show in replay/spectator mode but it does show live for the driver. We just did the 24hr race at Spa in the Lamborghini and were using this to tell when the tyres were up to temperature.

Haha, that was a bit of a rough block but in fairness I don't think he had seen me. I've had some decent races with him before. And most importantly I beat him in the end anyway 🤣

Hmm... 454 miles for me and one of our lot is flying up. Still looking forward to it though and the scenery is amazing.

Looking forward to picking up where we left off. 😀

@@jameswingfieldracing haha definitely

The oculus rift is a great starter but it's worth a look around as I think there may be some better options now, not least the rift S. It's an amazing experience though so good choice on going VR.

@@jameswingfieldracing thanks, I already have a quest 2 so im gonna use that or maybe If i can get it working I can use DJI FPV goggles as they do have HDMI in.

Thanks Jack. At the moment it's all a bit piecemeal and goes through lots of different software packages. I've been looking into ways of simplifying it though so it would be possible to use more widely. Do you use Neurotracker already?

@@jameswingfieldracing Hey James, Thanks for the reply! I do use Neurotracker, what are the software packages that you use to achieve what's shown in this video?

Thanks Lee. I'll post another video to update on how I've found it once I've been using it in this way for a while

I've assigned a button to each number so just press the right one for each ball.

Glad it helped.i realised afterwards that I could have gone into a bit more detail about getting iRacing to create .mip files and where to store them.

Correct. If your id number was 123456 then the livery file would be "car_123456.tga" and the spec map would be "car_spec_123456.tga". Save that into your paints folder and it should load up correctly when you get into the car. At this point a "car_spec_123456.mip" file will appear in the paint folder and that's the one to upload to trading paints when you're happy with the spec map.

Thanks. Check out some of the newer videos for some more info. I've some more ideas for future ones already, but if there is anything specific you'd like to see then let me know :)

Yes should be good. Hopefully I can use some new data from this year, as long as the test days happen soon.

Glad you like it. Let me know of there's anything else you'd like to see.

@@jameswingfieldracing mostly how to deal with data - Vrs telemetry shows where is speed difference but id like to know how to deal with it. Is there ane technique to diminish those gaps?

@@SimRacingEnthusiastJakub have you seen my data 101 video? That goes through a whole lap using each corner as an example to compare two laps.
