There's nothing you can do about bad luck in the opening lap, sometimes it just happens. You put in a solid effort to recover, and that was a great battle towards the end! And as always, your narration makes it sound even more exciting!
Well that was an entertaining race! Been loving racing in LMU lately. I think the ranking stuff is starting to work itself out as people do more races and get put in their respective buckets.
Yeah I reckon you’re right… quite likely that, for my first race, I was just dropped on a grid with other people who were racing for the first (and maybe only) time. Definitely seems like there’s some decent racing to be found here 😃
I’m glad to see you had fun in this race despite some bad luck. To answer your question about LMU, once I started playing this sim I got hooked to it and it’s hard for me to go back to other sims now. Yes there are some bugs and the content is still limited, but the graphics, ffb and physics are so engaging. Participation online is also very good, I can always find plenty of people even in the evenings here in the US, at least for the rookie lobbies. I’m sure more and more people will join this sim as it develops
Yeah I’ve been really impressed with the participation. This race I entered was 11am UK time, and there were loads of entries - very impressive for a morning time slot.
After that first incident, i was thinking not again but that was an honest mistake (replay explained that), we all make them time to time, it does suck when you stuff up & hit someone, i always feel so bad if it's myself🤦♂. Great race very nice weaving between the two after the incident, clean as & so close to getting tapped in that replay😬nice battle for the top 10 unlucky (I laughed with your honesty; "I ended up cracking myself"). Everyone seemed very clean & respectful, great racing etiquette, that's what we're in it for. Glad you had fun this time.
Got to admit when i saw that first incident, I thought "Oh no, not again" But thankfully it got better after that :) I have only managed 5 races so far in LMU but I'm really liking it..Keep at it fella. As usual another entertaining Video :)
Haha yes, was really bad luck, that. I didn’t do a lot wrong, left the space. Just an honest mistake from the lad. Still enjoyed it though! Cheers Nick
Glad you came back for another go and had some good racing after the start you had . I think this sim has a very good chance of being up there when all the bugs are solved and more thing are added 👍
Another class broadcast, Chris! LMU is certainly more difficult than ACC. Especially in these fixed setup races, and no ABS. My problem with LMU is that I can't get it to configure with SimHub, so I have no dash and no rumble in my pedals. Very difficult for me to feel when the back end of the car is breaking loose.
Cheers Matt, must admit I’ve not touched any wheel, pedal or ffb settings yet… just ran with the default when it auto-configured. It certainly feels lighter to me than rf2. Not too light, but maybe it might explain why I’ve not been able to pre-empt or catch those mid-corner slides.
Dude, if you are not already a professional race announcer, you need to send out some applications! That last vid and then this one are incredibly entertaining and knowledgeable! Love it. I love the game, too, can get some bad drivers in beginner for sure but that is every game, it is fun as heck!
Ahh that’s very kind, thank you. Nope, I’m just a complete novice at the commentary lark… never tried it until starting to make these sim racing videos 😃
This is actually funny thanks for the entertainment. Spent the whole Saturday and Sunday racing on LFM this weekend & sometimes s@#t happens. Makes me feel a whole lot better. Lost a huge amount of safety rating. Only to grind and get it back up again. Only to loose it but even worse the following day. Then I realized stop focusing on the numbers and just enjoy the racing. Too busy enjoying my Quest 3 with AC at the moment. Getting everything set up to where I wanted it to be took weeks. I will try LM soon
Yeah in my early days of sim racing, I used to get too stressed by ratings. In iRacing, it got to the point where I was reluctant to race if I’d got my SR up high, because I didn’t want to risk losing it. Then one day I had a bit of an epiphany about how daft it was to NOT do my hobby because a meaningless number might change. So, like you, I pay little attention to ratings now and treat each race as its own event 😃
impressive 2:18.1 even though you took damage earlier , if not for the damage I think you would've taken Oles outright and wouldn't have had to fight him half of the race but most of all I'm glad it wasn't a dirty driver in the race proving what we've been saying that LMU has respectful drivers for the most part , it knocked ACC off the stool as my new #1 sim and I hope to see more LMU races from you , thanks for the video
Nice one, yeah I’m sure I’ll give it another try. It’d be nice to get promoted to the longer races. I think adjusting fuel helped my lap times in this one… first race I struggled to change it and ran the race with a full 80L. 35L worked much better!
Cracking fightback there Chris, absolutely gutting that you made that mistake, but as you eluded to, it was made whilst fighting hard but fairly with another competitor. Personally I find you don't feel as bad for making a mistake when you're pushing against someone else, rather than when you're out on your own. Not sure I share the same view as you regarding the Lap 1 incident, yes the car made a mistake and went off track, but they could have taken a much slower speed to re-join the track more safely. The driving standards still looked a bit iffy in this one, but nothing like your first race 👍🏻
Yeah, it was a bad mistake, for sure. You shouldn’t be getting back on the gas so much while you’re still on the grass. But at least it’s a rookie mistake, in a rookie race, so that’s why I’m a bit more forgiving. Not like it was deliberate or malicious. And hopefully it’ll be a mistake he learns from, so all good 😃 Driving standards were more than a bit iffy on lap 1, but once the more out of control guys crashed out on that opening lap, the ones remaining were far better. So I’m definitely feeling more encouraged (and keen to graduate from rookies!) Cheers
Good race and glad you had a better time. About 9-11 clean races will get you up to silver SR and then you can try out the fixed hypercars or some entry multiclass racing. Also if you were not aware with the GTE's in fixed it defaults to race lean engine map, you can adjust it to the qualifying map and you will be quicker.
Ahhh nice. I had no idea about the engine mapping! I’ll definitely keep an eye out for that next time. I managed to lower the fuel for this one, so that definitely helped. 35L in the tank, instead of 80L for the first race. That must have helped my times.
A much better showing than that first disaster you were in! I haven't tried it yet, raced w scd on Friday and today, first in a long time. How does it compare to ACC? Hopefully it has much better feel and feedback, generally I like rf2 alot. Thanks for sharing w us!!! W
Glad you’re back on track Walt. Yeah, definitely a much better feel than ACC. I actually don’t mind the ACC feel once I’ve got used to it, but I reckon going back to it now after a few weeks away from it… I’ll really struggle! LMU feels just like rf2, so I’m sure you’d like it.
Very entertaining! Makes sure you follow the graphics tips to improved UI performance. Mine runs well following them. However with some features on or high, its kills the game.
Cheers, yeah I dialled down some dust, smoke and shadow settings in rf2 and that helped. I must remember to do the same in the LMU settings. Sure that’ll help.
Ah, man. I know your pain. I've got to the point now where I'm telling Jim to "shut the f*** up and let me race" whenever he says "Stay close. He'll make a mistake." The number of times I've been the one making a mistake after he's said that. 😂 It does look like a decent sim. My only concern at the moment is that we're being spoilt for choice and that maybe there isn't a big enough market for them all. We've still got Rennsport to come out and AC2, I believe.
Yeah, AC2 is definitely the one I’m most excited for. Now I’ve got LMU, I’ll definitely dip in and out of it but I think I’ll still be sticking with LFM in AC and ACC as my first stop for racing.
You'll catch a break (crosses fingers) I've seen people mention stutters ,luckily I haven't had this issue. A possible fix for this is to turn special effects down as it can occur when sparks or dust are displayed.
Yeah, that’s exactly what I ended up doing with rFactor 2 but I haven’t tried any adjustments here yet. Will definitely take a look when I’ve got a bit more time 👍
Intermediate is very clean, try to get out of beginner asap. That said I didn’t experience very bad racing at beginner either. Guess it also depends a bit on split and DR.
To be fair, I really enjoyed this one. The crash at the start was a big rookie mistake, but I have no problem with that in a rookie server… everybody has got to learn somewhere. After we got through the crazy first lap or two, the drivers remaining on track were all very good. But yeah, lap one was carnage 🤣
Yeah, that’s what I’m aiming for. If this race was anything to go by, playing it safe on the opening lap is the best approach for these rookie races. Once all the crazies have crashed, it’s much better 😃
@@alkallata80yeah it does. And it’s actually one of the things I like about online racing. The unpredictability - having to master the skill of assessing other unknown drivers around you, and knowing when it’s safe or unsafe to battle with them 👍
I shall be getting my first pc next week ive been playing acc on the xbox but ive got interested in so many games watching your videos im looking forward to getting going but with 0 online experience its a little intimidating 😮😂
Brilliant! Keep me updated how you get on. I remember doing my first online races and found it pretty intimidating. Just make sure to do enough practice laps that you know your way around comfortably. And if you’re at all worried, you can always skip qualifying to start at the back of the grid. Good luck!
Someone might have told you, Dan Suzuki made a Video of how to implement a Radar to LMU - that should help a lot especially in the lower splits. Maybe give it a try, took me like 5min to install.
I didn’t know that, but will check it out… I really miss not having a radar to check. Feels like I’m driving half blind (and I don’t have space for triples, so I heavily rely on a radar in other sims). Cheers!
Yeah it’s a completely different feel to ACC. The cars are quite loose, but I feel a connection with the track surface that I don’t get with ACC. ACC to me feels like I’m gliding through corners, but this feels a bit more grippy.
I've noticed when your mid corner you don't ha e much force feedback pushing against you. Is your FB settings real low? The wheel movements look way too smooth
Yeah so I must admit I haven’t made any FFB settings changes. LMU detected my wheel automatically and configured it, and I’ve just left it like that so far. It does feel a bit lighter than I’m used to in rFactor 2, so maybe that’s why I’m being caught out with the oversteer slides occasionally.
Yes much cleaner. Some bad driving & honest mistakes. Actually I was a bit surprised so many cars held their breaks/ hesitated B4 getting back on track to not hit a coming car😇 9:13 if u had triples or a radar on you could have seen that coming, then hesitated B4 turning in and getting a much better drive w/o having to hesitate to not run into that guy and quite possibly passed him B4 eau rouge. You might end up running two wide there and it was on Oles to relent since he was the last one to make a mistake, but he may not have🥴
Triples would be the dream, but I don’t have the space to use them sadly. I do feel naked without a radar though! Would be good if they could introduce one to the HUD. Unless there is already… I haven’t looked.
@@chrisrogerssimracing I've heard there is a mod that you can ad a radar to any sim whether it has one or not (maybe you don't really like that one that came w/ the game). I think you can find it on race department. I saw a vid on it from a streamer (Dave Cam?).
Yeah, a big mistake for sure. Needed to lift off the throttle and roll back on more slowly. But I’m a bit more forgiving for mistakes like that in rookie races, as it wasn’t deliberate or malicious. Plus, I’ve done it before 🤣
If it was me, and online racing is your thing, I’d stick with iRacing purely due to the variety and race options you get. LMU is still VERY glitchy at the moment. And only 8 tracks and 3 car classes, so quite limited on variety. If you’re looking for an additional extra to install, and have some fun offline races, it’s definitely worth a try
Haha yeah, it’s scary how many times I’ve been collected in T1 incidents over the past couple of months 🤣 Mostly, I don’t think I’m doing anything wrong, and I just excel at being in the wrong place at the wrong time! But I had no problem with this incident. It was a rookie mistake, but you can’t blame a rookie for making one of those. We’ve all done it 😃
I know several people have suffered the screen freezes while loading, but I’ve not experienced that yet. They’ve loaded ok (but very slowly) both times. Maybe someone else can help 🤞
Thank you mate, yeah a big relief! But just imagine how fuming I’d have been if I’d got hit by that car down the Kemmel Straight on lap 1 🤣 was SO lucky to miss that.
No mate, I add the commentary at the end, after I’ve edited the replay clips into my race footage. If you check my main channel page, there’s a Behind The Scenes vid that shows how I put them together 👍
I did notice that, if you go to the race results in-game and click on the three dots next to a driver name, you get the option to Report. Must admit I haven’t tried it… someone else must have reported the guy from my last video. As for the replays, there’s no official way but there is a workaround - check out the @roy_33nl36 video guide on his RUclips channel 👍
I’ve had more luck when I qualify towards the front of the grid, seems everyone towards the front will give you space and not drive like complete morons
Thank you mate, yeah I did wonder whether I was missing out on speed by staying in 5th. But didn’t get chance to try out 6th gear. Will try it next race if there’s a long enough straight 👍
Mate, good race but your to "nice" when your making your over takes. Start from last pos and see how fair you reach p1. Best way of learning over takes (clean, tactics but hard/consequent)
Ahh mate, you’re not the first person to tell me that 🤣 being aggressive doesn’t come naturally to me, and the occasions I try usually end up with me crashing. Practice would definitely make perfect, but my time behind the wheel is so limited lately, I’m not really making any progress, sadly.
@@chrisrogerssimracing I don't think it's about being aggressive but consequently in the action. Telling your opponents what your doing, showing them clear signals. Understanding your opponents driving style and weaknesses and pushing when you need too (then of course an art of aggression but rather superior). Aggressive drives are like magenta for trouble and I let them pass me, not defending for my life, rather try get them into a trap like over shoutout on a breaking point... So my advice is really to start at the end. At acc a good lobby is pommesbude
There's nothing you can do about bad luck in the opening lap, sometimes it just happens. You put in a solid effort to recover, and that was a great battle towards the end!
And as always, your narration makes it sound even more exciting!
Thank you mate!
I absolutely love your in race commentary.. I wish I had that energy and creativity for my POV videos lol
Haha ahh thank you mate. Yeah they take a fair bit of time and energy to make… and many coffees 🤣
Well that was an entertaining race! Been loving racing in LMU lately. I think the ranking stuff is starting to work itself out as people do more races and get put in their respective buckets.

Some bad luck there Chris. Great battle with Oles though. Still the best sim videos for me with your format. 🏁🏁
Thank you Stu, much appreciated, as always 🍺
Unlucky again Chris good driving and applying pressure great battle - glad LMU sorted out the other issue as well
Thank you Tomo, yeah good to know bad behaviour will get punished!
So happy seeing you settling into this sim Chris , I'd rather watch you than take the plunge myself. 👏
Hi Tony, nice one, I’m happy to help you enjoy LMU experiences vicariously through the vids!
You poor bugger couldn’t take a trick! Good driving , you just need a clean start. Love the format of your videos very entertaining
Haha cheers, yeah would have definitely been a top 6 battle without the unlucky start! Cheers mate
your videos are always entertaining!! keep it up mate
That’s very kind of you to say, thank you. Glad you enjoy them!

great race m8 and plenty of action
Thank you Andrew! Cheers for watching mate
Just installed LMU last night. Looking forward to having my first races here
Good luck mate, hope you find one like my second race, and not my first one!
Another class broadcast, Chris! LMU is certainly more difficult than ACC. Especially in these fixed setup races, and no ABS.

Glad you had a decent race. Still seems like some of the race craft is a bit raw. Thanks for the content.
Yeah, particularly in the first lap or two. Seems you just have to take a bit of extra caution then, and wait for the field to settle down a bit!
This is actually funny thanks for the entertainment. Spent the whole Saturday and Sunday racing on LFM this weekend & sometimes s@#t happens. Makes me feel a whole lot better.

Im really enjoying this game its really growing on me and ive even stopped playing all the other sims❤
Nice one! Its great to find a sim that you really click with. RaceRoom was always like that for me, back in the day.
Great battle
Cheers mate! Thanks for watching
A much better showing than that first disaster you were in! I haven't tried it yet, raced w scd on Friday and today, first in a long time. How does it compare to ACC? Hopefully it has much better feel and feedback, generally I like rf2 alot. Thanks for sharing w us!!! W

Unlucky to lose the car when trying for top 10 Chris, like you say better racing this time round last time was a joke.
Thank you mate, yeah a big relief! But just imagine how fuming I’d have been if I’d got hit by that car down the Kemmel Straight on lap 1 🤣 was SO lucky to miss that.
yes I forgot about that one that was close, I remember thinking where did he come from when I seen it happen in your mirror@@chrisrogerssimracing
Are you commenting after recording this race or during it?
No mate, I add the commentary at the end, after I’ve edited the replay clips into my race footage. If you check my main channel page, there’s a Behind The Scenes vid that shows how I put them together 👍
I dont know how can I report dirty rider? And I dont know where can I start all race replay like old rFactor 2 from beginning to end.
I did notice that, if you go to the race results in-game and click on the three dots next to a driver name, you get the option to Report. Must admit I haven’t tried it… someone else must have reported the guy from my last video. As for the replays, there’s no official way but there is a workaround - check out the @roy_33nl36 video guide on his RUclips channel 👍
@@chrisrogerssimracing Thank you very much Chris 👍
Any more ACC content in the pipe line?
Hello mate, yeah it’s probably next on my list. I fancied a bit of variety over the past month so have just been rotating my sim choices a bit more 👍
@@chrisrogerssimracing That's fair, I watch all your videos tbh, I just prefer ACC 🤣
I’ve had more luck when I qualify towards the front of the grid, seems everyone towards the front will give you space and not drive like complete morons
Be sure to use 6th gear in the fefe. not a car that benefit from revving too much.
Thank you mate, yeah I did wonder whether I was missing out on speed by staying in 5th. But didn’t get chance to try out 6th gear. Will try it next race if there’s a long enough straight 👍
Mate, good race but your to "nice" when your making your over takes. Start from last pos and see how fair you reach p1. Best way of learning over takes (clean, tactics but hard/consequent)
Ahh mate, you’re not the first person to tell me that 🤣 being aggressive doesn’t come naturally to me, and the occasions I try usually end up with me crashing. Practice would definitely make perfect, but my time behind the wheel is so limited lately, I’m not really making any progress, sadly.
@@chrisrogerssimracing I don't think it's about being aggressive but consequently in the action. Telling your opponents what your doing, showing them clear signals. Understanding your opponents driving style and weaknesses and pushing when you need too (then of course an art of aggression but rather superior). Aggressive drives are like magenta for trouble and I let them pass me, not defending for my life, rather try get them into a trap like over shoutout on a breaking point... So my advice is really to start at the end. At acc a good lobby is pommesbude
Why are you yelling at me 😭
