The little Mazdas are such good fun around Rudskogen, they’re pretty planted and controllable but on certain corners it gets unsettled just enough to keep you on your toes, really glad this is included in the base subscription
@@Schwing27 Yeah, that turn (3) is known as “Angsten” in Norwegian, which loosely translates to Anxiety. :) The 180 hairpin a few turns later is known as “Slaktern», which means The Butcher in Norwegian. So with names like these, you have to be on you toes. :)
Love this track. Read a comment in a forum from a guy that's been driving Rudskogen IRL and now in iRacing; he said it was almost spot on compared to reality, and he never felt that with any track before.
The first time I drove this track, I thought to myself it looks like the area around North Bay, Ontario... an area I get to fairly regularly. The rock faces, the pine trees.... Such a fun layout.
Yes, its a fun little track. So cool to get a track from little Norway. Not many tracks over here... The long downhill into the righthander is called "angsten" or directly to english "the anxienty"
Dave, I must have been in the race just before or after this one, a bunch of the same names in my race. I've been hoping to get a race with you one of these days and must have just missed you! The track is brilliant fun in the mx5, touring cars could be interesting too.
I had been driving this in the F4 and really liked it. I hopped into the MX5 on a whim and it's like it was a completely different track. Seems like a track that will be good for a wide variety of cars.
Use momentum not power. Let the energy bleed then downshift and be smoooooddd. In practice be conservative at first then push it until you spin. There is your reference point for that corner.
Yeah that little chicane section is unreal I havnt enjoyed a track like this for a long time actually takes skill to do a fast lap and safe overtakes 👌
iracing has this fun "feature" where drivers with poor internet connections will sometimes disappear, then eventually reappear by doing a huge kickflip into the air. $13 dollars a month, $14 a track, and $12 a car everyone.
Was at rudskogen about when this video came out, porche carrera cup, got to see dennis hauger F2 driver, drive his f2 car and porche carrera cup, also «home» track off 2 times Formula drift world champ fredric aasbo 😄
Always a pleasure, never a chore. Except that milkfloat stuff - that's a chore. Nice to see the track footage outside of VR - don't get the same view of the elevation changes in VR. The track's name is Rudolfskin, BTW.
The track looks to have a good flow to it Dave and you had a good race. When you started talking about something sad a pathetic in that race I thought that perhaps I had been in it had somehow slipped my mind. 😆 It's a long time since I've driven the MX5 but it was always great fun racing. Keep up the good work.
Awesome content Dave thank you. I think this is the first video of yours where I've actually done the combo around the same time you did, and even recognize at least one name. What an insanely difficult car to drive after this update, and this track is EPIC. Good stuff Dave.
Pretty sure the kink/braking zone at 2:36 is called "the angst". And the pit with the Continental signs used to be called "The slaughterhouse". Norwegians have interesting naming styles I suppose.
seems amazing the downhill braking . and overall elevations , reminds me a little bit of mont-tremblant but def. tighter and slower. ill def. have a go at this track this week end. cheers
Not been on iRacing for a bit but I still keep up with your content Dave, this looks a lot of fun. Reminds me of a fictional Gran Turismo track from back in the day.
Not a fan of the Mazda’s to be honest, but this race was cool to watch. Good race, Dave!! It amazed me how close you can get to the cars in front without crashing into them 👏🏼👏🏼
I'm with you, it's a fun track. When I find myself sitting at the bottom of the hill with my car pointed where I just came from because of a brainfart, a little less so. But I do like the challenge.
I have another reccomendation for you Dave, you must try this circuit in the FW31, it flows so well, it has to be the most fun i've had driving a car on iracing this year. I wish they brought back the series for it.
Absolutely most underrated car on the service. Excluding tin tops the FW has the best force feedback of all the open wheelers and is the most fun to drive. It feels a lot more visceral and animalistic than the Merc W12 which feels too artificial for me. I would love it if they brought this series back, i never got to race it. I’ve done thousands of laps in that thing and it’s still my favourite! And yeah, is awesome round this track, first car I tried!
@@TheSnaveeelPlaysGames A lot of people just discourage it because its 12 years old now and just think it will suck, the series for this car as far as I know hasn't been on the service since it was Replaced by the MP4-30 in 2015, so its been 7 years since it was last raced so not many people know about it. First car I tried here also
@@amarokdcs1062 it’s a shame. I’ll try any car, especially if it’s F1 😂 and all tyre updates, FFB updates etc get applied to all vehicles so it far from sucks. The tyres alone are great, you can push for lap after lap which you can’t do in the Mercedes’ or Mclaren (granted, I don’t have as much track time in the Mclaren to say I’ve really pushed the tyres)
This track maybe new in sim-racing but actually it's not a new in real racing, it's i think 5 or 6 years old but has been reconstructed. They did STCC on this track and some other cool things.
They must have changed the Mazda's handling because it feels much more oversteery than it used to. This car has taught me a lot about balancing throttle mid corner and trail braking, especially on the downhill right hander. So easy to spin there! LOVE this track in the Mazdas. I've been doing races here in the MX-5 for 2 days now and Chris wins a lot of them, he's a beast.
I have only driven around this in practice mode in one car. If you think the MX-5 is a handful on cold tyres around this track, try the Formula Vee. It is a real handful but absolutely fun.
Won the 1st race I ran here last night. Started 7th was in the lead by the top of the uphill section between spins, wrecks and a blinking car I phased through lol
Nice racing Dave! I would definitely revisit the replay for a protest. It looks like 'intentional wrecking and retaliation' on the #12 car against #16 car. Incident at 14:50 shows the first contact and subsequent revenge attempts at 15:40 and divebomb at 12:40. Might explain why the #16 was flipping at the end. Even though it is week 13, the sporting code still applies and you shouldn't intentionally wreck others even though it might be unranked fun.
If you like the Miata around here, try the Legends 34 Ford. Someone was doing a hosted session today, what a fantastic blast just using iRacing's road setup.
Great vid! Love this combo, but races full of rookies usually means significant ratings loss there... I gave up quali - being wiped out of the race at turn 1 when in P1 is far too aggravating -, but even that does not help much most of the time...
Dave, I love your channel. Congrats for the work you do! Whats your PC's setup? Your graphics are sooooo good! I loved the two new tracks from the build, by the way.
I don't know how you can get a 135.702 around that track, the best I Have gotten is 140.268 and I did mostly the same as you as far as the gearing. My hat is off to you. Thanks for all your videos. You are a hell of a driver I hope to be as good at some point. Your also very lucky !!! I wounder if you know of a app that can show kph/mph that would be very helpful to me as it's very hard to relate to just what you're doing on track in kph.
Dave can you please tell me how you get the MX-5 to go off the line ? I have tried everything I can think of and it's just to slow, others are passing me at the start, so I know there has to be away. some are even smoking the tires, I don't want to smoke the tires but I really need a faster way to takeoff.
@@davecamyt That downhill before the high speed corner is called "the anxiety" ... you have to break hard and trailbrake from 210/220 (with alot of lean angle) down to ca. 140kph . Lovely track as you stated. And the following chicane (the part you liked the most as I understand) with the left downhill sweeper after, is called the carousel .
The most shocking thing about this track is that its FREE. IRacing Suits not being greedy as usual. In the times we live in with money issues etc you would think by now they would change the policy. Either make the game a 1 off payment with everything included or make the game free to play with paying for cars and tracks. To charge to pay for cars/tracks and then a Subscription to get access to vehicles and tracks you have paid for is ridiculous. I can see why the numbers are dropping off in this game and why games like ACC and AB2 are getting more players each week now for online. IRacing really need to change this...Its gone on far to long.
Bahrein, Abu Dhabi, Monaco, Circuit of Mexico, Portimão Portugal, Australian Gp Melbourne... too many nice and better tracks, but Iracing go to Norway to scan a poor track nobody knows. Of course, Iracing is american and they have bad taste for tracks.
Bad taste for tracks? Watkins Glen, Road Atlanta, Daytona, Laguna Seca, Mid Ohio, Indy, Long Beach, St Pete, Detroit, ViR… Europe has some good tracks too, not really sure what the h*ll you’re talking about concerning iRacing.
Honestly, I popped into Iracing last night in the first time in a while and was irate that there was almost nothing in week 13 for me to do unless I dropped money on this track. Iracing has a way of forcing your hand to spend money. I dont like it. I wont buy this track, and honestly, I wont be using the service any longer. Ive already dropped 100+ on shit for iracing over the past few months. And i dont like feeling required to spend more to participate in week 13. In my opinion, Iracing really needs to make some serious changes. Honestly, I liked it better 10 years ago. Today I login and the amount of series that the service offers is ridiculous. Why are there 50+ different series? "Iracing deoderant cup series", "Ford Silverspoon series", "Mercedes rim job series". All of which are farely similar to each other. It makes even finding a series to compete in a task in and of itself. With the player base is spread out among 50+ different series, 90% of all racing series have empty practice sessions unless you stick to what has made iracing great in the first place: Miata spec, skip barber, GT3, IMSA. Further, the force feedback is terrible when you compare it to its competitors, ACC, AC, RF2. Even AMS2 rivals Iracing. Which honeslty is shameful Not a fan anymore. sorry.
@@davecamyt LOL. Forgive me. I did. End of a long day and was in a bad mood. That only slightly changes my opinion though. Cheers Dave. Love your content

Very cool and tricky track. But that’s what you get when you drive a track with corner names such as “The Butcher” and “Anxiety”. 😁
Dave, I must have been in the race just before or after this one, a bunch of the same names in my race. I've been hoping to get a race with you one of these days and must have just missed you! The track is brilliant fun in the mx5, touring cars could be interesting too.
They went to Norway and scanned a circuit no one has heard of ...I Racing never ceases to amaze me. It looks fun
Everyone knows this track because of Gatebil
I had been driving this in the F4 and really liked it.
I hopped into the MX5 on a whim and it's like it was a completely different track.
Seems like a track that will be good for a wide variety of cars.
I'm loving this track but that long right hander down the hill is a nightmare! Nice driving as always Dave 👍
The new tyre model on the Mazda doesn't help either
Use momentum not power. Let the energy bleed then downshift and be smoooooddd. In practice be conservative at first then push it until you spin. There is your reference point for that corner.
If you liked Mazda around Rudskogen, you would like Ferrari fixed🤨 It’s MENTAL🤯 Crazy fun and really good battles😍
Yeah that little chicane section is unreal I havnt enjoyed a track like this for a long time actually takes skill to do a fast lap and safe overtakes 👌
Driving on this track reminds me a lot of the rockies, especially the view of sea to sky highway north of vancouver towards whistler
2:17 the blue car on the right of the screen caught massive air.
It’s because he lagged
