    Several things I’ve noticed in this: the visibility out of the McLaren is pretty good for such a low slung car! The Spa 24 pit length is brutal, the acceleration up the hill off the limiter is brutal, and the headlights really show how much dirt and gravel gets drug into the track. And that’s just a practice session!

    Hey James! Thanks so much for this! Question for you…. Many people have been debating about brake pedal in the real gt3 car vs brake pedal in the sim world. We would love it if you would do a video, even simply explaining, simply the differences and similarities between the two. For instance, what is the travel like in the real Mclaren vs say a csl load cell or a huskeinveld sprint pedal. How about the pressure needed to apply to get 100% force? Adjustability? We are super intrigued and its always talked about on reddit and within the community and youve got that first hand experience in BOTH realms. Yeah the “pro” elite drivers speak about it but they dont run the everyday sim equipment like we/you do and the curiosity is rampant!

    Perhaps you talked about it and i missed it, but can you tell if you felt like "ahh, i know this behaviour of the Mclaren" cause you regocnized some perks of the sim version? i mean sure, the G forces will make eveything feel different. But i am curious anyway,...I feel like i could land a A320 because i played that plane in flight sim in detail and fully simulated. Not a great landing i guess. But there is a chance nobody would die. Would you say an experienced and save driving sim racer would make it around the track without any real life experience?
