Helmet Cam at VIR: Double Race Victory in GTWC America
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 июн 2023
- Ride with me as we prepare for the VIR race weekend in the GT World Challenge America series. We only got 1h of practice to dial the car in and get the set up ready to race. It was a handful through practice but the team did an unbelievable job to turn it around and get us locked in for the races. This is our journey to a double race win.

What you're doing is really great. You don't see too many IRL drivers putting this much content out for free to help everyone get better. I hope your channel grows keep up the great work!
I appreciate that! It’s definitely growing and it’s great to see how many new people are seeing these videos. Every single share goes such a long way. We started from nothing on this channel and grew it to nearly 17,000 subscribers in about three months. I’m not taking my foot off the throttle. We are going to keep pumping out the content.
David Perel used to be my go to RL driver for YT content. But, he's very busy with his CDA and SimGrid
Your knowledge is insane. That’s why you’re a GT3 driver and we are just mere sim racers. Thanks for your work sharing these great insights 👍
I appreciate that!
@G82_M I bet you would do well in a BMW M4 GT3 if you had the chance 😉👍
@@bmwM3M5M6 I have a G82 M4 and an OG M2 which I track. I’ve sat in the Rowe Motorsport M4 GT3 but that’s about as close as I’ll ever get I’m afraid 😂
@@G82_M Wow man you have a dream car M4. My dream is 1 M car but still can’t buy one.
I never even drove my own car since I never owned one. Couldn’t make it in life sadly because circumstances that I don’t have in hand.
So I just enjoy virtual simracing fooling myself that I’m a racedriver otherwise I become crazy
As someone who wants to be a racing driver, videos like this are extremely helpful. I felt like I was a part of the team and was learning so much from everything you were saying. It was like having an engineer explain my first session to me and guide me through the day. Thanks for making this!
This is only something I've recently learned, but often an issue on one end of the car means a damper adjustment on the other end. I've only tinkered with single-adjustable shocks, but I guess increasing the rebound on front would help transition weight to the rear? A friend helped me at WSIR SOW when my rear kept trying to pass the front while braking, the damper adjustment completely fixed it, but I keep getting confused trying to remember which direction helps what lol. But that wais all very low-level compared to a full-on race car setup xD
This video was super helpful, I've only been to VIR once before and while the cars are very different, a lot of things carry over - especially the thought process. Looking forward to cutting a lot of time next time out. Thanks for sharing!
PS: Morad goes zoom!
This channel has taught me so much about driving, and has made sim driving so so enjoyable. I would love to see some more fundamentals content from you with intros to things like the MX5 and GR86 in iRacing, your insights are incredibly valuable! Keep it up.
That’s actually an incredible video idea. I’m going to write that down on my list of things to do. Thank you so much.
For only one practice session that was shortened by the rain you and Kenton really battled to get P1 in class for both races. It was a pleasure to be able to be at this race and experience it all!
It was awesome to have you there with us
Morad go zoom, RIP the oak tree. Always love hearing about all the small details that go into a race weekend, thanks for another great video!
Thanks very much. It’s a lot different hearing what happens on the inside compared to just watching it on TV. I’m happy to share this kind of stuff. It’s cool to see how a lot of this transfers over to the Simracing world as well
Morad goes Zoom. Awesome content Daniel, Really bringing the experience to us all.
Glad you enjoy it!
Wow...just thank you!! As a VR sim racer i cant thank you enough for the amount of advice and lessons from a IRL driver; and seeing video at the same time is just amazing. The view is so much like the VR perspective. The commentary is great. i'm learning all the time.
For the setup fix my limited first thoughts 1) soften rear anti-roll bar. Might help with rear grip in the corners. 2) stiffen front suspension slightly to help keep some weight at the back under breaking.
The car was way more stable the 2nd run. Oak tree (turn 10?) was a big tell. Really amazing the small changes can just help find that sweet spot...or at least sweeter :)
@@TheVRRacerI have to agree with you there. It’s totally the same in VR looking at Daniels views inside the cockpit and even the engine sound is the same in IRacing I’ve been racing for a month in VR and I already feel like a racing driver lol 😂 I just need to have a look into setups and getting faster
Bro craziest POV GT3 vid ive seen, this track is crazy, more dangerous and quick than even N ring, those kerbs are crazy, precision is mental, shows how good a driver you pro guys are in GT3s
Really great video. Love seeing the preparation and mega fast hands. Keep them coming!
Love it! Looking forward to more of this sort of in-depth in car footage.
Love your videos man, thank you for sharing a bit of the RL practise. . 9/10 😊
Only 9 haha
@@danielmorad ok ok, 9.5 😂
Morad goes zoom. Keep the awesome content coming!!
Thanks so much. We’ll keep it coming.
Hey Daniel, thank you so so much to take us on a ride! It is so much fun for us. Watching you pretty much since the beginning and it is really nice to see how you improved in interacting with the camera and the way you talk :)
I miss seeing that oak tree on the corner. Hopefully they plant another tree there soon. Once again, awesome content Dan!
That would be cool! Thanks man!
My heart was pounding when you went full attack @6:02. Amazing content Daniel. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for uploading these.
Brilliant. Love it. Love the walkthrough of what your thinking about and how you evaluate the car.
Thanks for posting these videos, it's fascinating stuff.
Excellent wins on VIR and was very entertaining to watch. I don't normally have anyone to root for and just watch casually but you guys def got my attention. Love driving around in VIR in sims and one of my favorite tracks next to Sebring and Road America.
Awesome as always! Thanks Daniel, for sharing your experiences. These videos are really insightful, not just for us simracers at home, but for anyone who's interested what a race car driver hears, feels and sees.
awesome video, this is why i subbed to this channel so much info and the way you explained everything for someone that can only dream of being a pro race car driver this awesome content and hope to see even more of stuff like this. Morad goes zoom!! 🎉🎉
Dude these videos are gold! Nothing else like this on the internet
More of this! Awesome content Daniel! Morad go zoom!
Been following your channel for a few months and how I found the Fanatec GT World Challenge series. Was at VIR to watch both victories in person. Congratulations on the wins! You both are awesome drivers!
This was super interesting! thanks for making!
Awesome content Daniel thank you for doing this! Congrats on your wins at VIR, Morad go zoom!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much
Awesome content. Thanks, for people trying to learn and improve either in simracing or reallife content like this video is a gift. Congratulations, and gonfor more wins, and more content. Thanks again
Great channel. Just found it, absolutely loving it. You’re living all of our dreams man!! 💪🏼
Quality stuff Daniel. Thank you for your insight.
I love watching live races.
Gongratulation to your win at VIR.
Good job. 👍
This racing is next level !!!
Thank you so much
Thank for your review. They are truly the best part of every race you cover. 😁
Awesome video Dan thank you!
Love to see the big Benz getting pushed hard! Can’t think of anyone else sharing their sim AND real world GT3 experience like this. Awesome stuff!
This shows how passionate you are about what you do. Taking the time to make a video explaining everything it’s just amazing and super nice for all those who have never experienced irl racing! Thank you so much!
I appreciate that!
This is awesome, was there on Saturday, you guys had a great line coming out of the first esses and seetting up for the uphill climb. Also, my son was able to get on stage for the podium presentation, great first race experience for us.
This is amazing content, really gives you an inside on how these kind of things go, very insightful, thank you Daniel.
I love watching these and seeing the massive difference between your GT3's and the F4 car around similar tracks. we raced at VIR first week of June and turn 10 was almost flat, just a lift maybe some light braking to turn in then instant throttle. the top speed you guys have down that back straight is insane. really fun to watch a helmet cam like this
Nice work Daniel Moradgozoom!! Love the production values of your clips.
Enjoying all the great content mate , keep it coming🏆
Thanks 👍
MORADGOZOOM!!! Great video. Watched every minute. Can't wait for the next one. Congratz on the win!!
MORAD GO ZOOM. Awesome video with so much detail to see how a practice session really goes. More of this plz
I will definitely keep putting these out. I might not be able to put helmet cam for the future videos because I’m not allowed anymore but I will figure something out.
Awesome video! I picked up a pair of your gloves, can't wait to put them on! Also your car control is 10/10 hahaha (morad go zoom)
Awesome! Thank you!
You are the GOAT dude, thanks sooooo much!!!!
The small explanation for details like TC settings is what makes your videos so amazing
Morad go zoom my man. Sick video I love these breakdowns you've been sharing of real life processes and the prep for a race
Loving the variety of content
Great video Daniel! Really enjoyed this. Hope all is well... your living the dream :)
I would have softened the front roll bar or reduced front compression dampening to slow the initial turn in and maybe give a bit more apex front roll to generate more front grip. I'll see what you did.
Was happy to loan you my teammate! I think these videos are a great inside look for people who haven't done the real thing. Will be fun to race you at Road America in a week. I'll make sure Kenton plugs his radio in. See you there!
Awesome content man, keep it up 👍
Appreciate it!
Pretty interesting. Keep on going. I believe in couple years when you're couple mil subs we will all have a smile about how it all started. BTW, you did start with an amazing picture quality from first day and it drags the attention.
Oh, and 'Morad go Zoom' ;)
Good luck Daniel ✌️💪keep it up champ 😎
Thanks for sharing your pov love to see more videos of this was rooting for you when I seen you run at COTA keep up the good work now I'm going to jump on ACC lol
Appreciate it
Morad go zoom!. Great vid man, keep it up.
Man, just amazing. Idk why but this week on iRacing I'm driving only the Ferrari Challenge here at VIR and it feels soooooo similar, I can feel what the car is trying to do and somehow what you are actually doing to control it. Maybe in corner exit like last corner feels a tiny bit different, but man, just amazing.
Congratulations for your Win here and your car control is sublime. Just wow.
Morad go zoom! Thank you for making these videos Daniel. You are my go to YT channel at the moment. Keep it up, love how your channel is growing by the day.
Thanks so much. We are pushing so hard to grow the channel and put out the best content. If you ever have any suggestions, I’m open to listening.
Morad go zoom! Great video Daniel!
Morad goes zoom. Awesome weekend for the team. Auberlin was right there
Yes it was! He was putting the pressure on, but I was able to soak it all up
Hi Daniel thank you so much for the effort you are putting into these videos. It’s awesome to have these kind of pov with your personal impressions. Exciting times 😁 …and obviously Morad goes Zoom!
My pleasure! Thanks so much
Great video! I started Sim Racing to get better at HPDE…. Hooked at both now. VIR is my home track. You’re car control looks fantastic to me. Wish I had the talent/confidence to push like that.
Great content Daniel, thanks for this. A really good insight into the real life of racing. Being a sim racer I can appreciate and relate to, if only in a small way. Would be great to see your trail braking input as that seems to help my driving big time. - Morad goes zoom!
Such a nice race car. Definitely my favorite GT3 to drive on iRacing. It sounds amazing in game and in the real. Incredible driving Daniel! I’ve always found it funny when some people think they could just jump in and drive one of these puppies. Road…oval, it doesn’t matter. They have no idea what these cars are capable of….including trying to kill you.
I was there for the Saturday race, by far the best car on track. Thanks for letting me Take a pic of my newphew with this car, not only his favorite but mine aswell. Looking forward to next year.
That’s awesome. Thanks so much for the support. See you next year.
Wow this car really looks like a diamond in a close up view. Looks so new and beautiful
Thank you
Great vid, thnx!!👍
Glad you liked it!
Great video..Your content has been a real help for me in the sim and I love the helmet cam footage. I think it would be interesting to to see you in Nascar. Morad Go ZOOOOOM!!!!
Morad go zoom
Thanks for posting. I really enjoy these on-board with commentary.
Glad you enjoy it!
This is just beyond awsome!! Who needs a VR headset when we get a ring side seat to this!! 😂
"Morad goes Zoom"!
You certainly did.... super result at VIR and what a great insightful video - loved it!
More please 🙏🏼 🤙🏼
Thank you! Will do!
This track is only a couple hours from me and I have never been. I honestly did not even know it existed until I got on Iracing (sad, I know) but im going to start making some trips there soon. Great video man. This has to be so exhilarating
Thanks a lot for this insight, man. This was gold. I'd have been upping the diff pre-load to calm the rear down early on - but then I'm just a guy in his garage with a pretend racing car. MoradGoZoom 🤘
I agree this is really great education video! "Morad go zoom"
What a fantastic video mate! AMG has been my favorite chassis to drive in sim racing across many games, and getting some of this insight is SERIOUSLY appreciated.
Definitely interesting to see how sketchy it looks in that initial phase of braking.
Yeah it was manageable but not so much on the turn in.
@@danielmorad Already tricky enough in sim, but IRL a whole different story, gotta be super stressful!
Thanks for the vid again, and the reply!
Love this type of content!
Thanks so much. Glad you’re enjoying it.
This is an awesome video. I've been using the Tomy Turnin Turbo Dashboard to improve my driving. I think I might need to up my game .
Awesome content Daniel!! Very helpful for us simracers, especially how quickly you're able to tell what works and what still needs improvement. Very impressive. Would be wonderful to hear what kind of adjustments in the end did the trick...
If I told you, I’d have to harm you. I don’t want to do that. Lol.
You are a big inspiration and also a wonderful driver keep doing what your doing
I appreciate that
Great Channel Daniel!
She's a handful on entry! 😮
I absolutely love VIR IRL!
Your question @19:58 looking at the steering input on entry it seems more mechanical than aero.
Kenton is a cool dude 😎
.
Morad Goes Zoom!
Driving 9 of 10 it's hard to be perfect. I know I would have been in the weeds in a number of spots. A few times you had sudden step outs, the counter steer applied perfect. Then a sudden kick backward after the counter steer, into the weeds for me. There is no doubt you are best friends with this course. This is my first cockpit view VIR, very impressed. Tks for the ride.
Morad goes zoom
Great win 🎉 great team work
Thanks a lot
Watching this really gave a greater appreciation of your skill and experience in racing as watching the race didn’t show how hard you work to get around the track.
Top notch racing sir.
Morad goes zoom zoom
Morad Go Zoom! The content is fascinating for all the small details. There's plenty of in car videos out there, but showing and talking about things like starting the car, putting on the belts etc, sets you apart. Best of luck to you and your wife in racing and business. I'll keep watching. Looking to order my gloves soon.
congrats for the rides at detroit and vir! sorry to see your car get crashed out at watkins so fast and not being able to even get in. that pit strat in detroit was mint (your driving wasnt bad either lol) and that pass before getting into the esses at vir was fun to watch. see ya on twitch
Thanks so much. It’s been a good month of June. Trying to continue the momentum into July and the rest of the season.
I love this channel. I like simracing and gt3 racing. Fantastic.
Happy to have you part of the community
Morad goes zoom. Great video Great win, must have been so satisfying with so little practice.
Yes it was! It was hard work but we made it work.
Really enjoy this! As a former SCCA racer and still track day driver, I love watching you push the limits. GT is such a great class right now, and the Mercedes V8 is always the best sounding engine...I would have a terrible time with those steering wheels, but I guess you get used to it. Your car control is on point!
Morad goes zoom... well done on the win bro
Thanks a lot! It was a great weekend
I'm more of a WEC fan but this FP video has given me exactly what I wanted
Morad goes zoom! Enjoying this racing content and insight! Funny too 😂
After first run I would suggest softer rear arb and lowering the rear if possible. That would allow you to lean more on the rear on entry. Also more brake bias forward.
Those are some great steps. We did go forward on the brake bias. Funny enough, as much as we thought that we need to adjust the rear, it was actually something in the front, and that really made a big difference.
@@danielmorad stiffen front arb?
Great Channel Daniel 🚀
Thank you so much
MORAD GO ZOOM!!
I first saw you on instagram ads for your gloves which I wanna buy. I run iracing and the Merc GT3 is my favorite car by far and I always run it.
This is real awesome content!! I was actually watching the race on RUclips and saw you win at VIR. KEEP IT UP
Thanks so much man!! Well, if you ever get a pair, use RADNATION and you can get 10% off your first order :) enjoy.
Awesome video, Morad go zoom.
U are the goat in my book.
Thanks so much for that
In the next weeks It will be Virginia for the GT3 in iRacing, could you do a comparation video of this onboard of yours, and some laps in iRacing? Maybe it could help some of us that are starting in iRacing and have a GT3 car. Your videos are very cool by the way!
I will definitely do that. I also have some on board footage from Watkins Glen in the GT4 which I will put up
lol when you're so fast on track that another racer is intimadated by you. gj on your practice runs DM.
Love this channel!!! Moradgozoom all day 💯
Appreciate that
Amazing! Morad go zoom.
Congratulations
Thank you
Mooz Sego darom…. Great video Moradness!!!
Haha thanks so much Derek
hell yeah I'll subscribe! Cheers! Mcdonalds trays! LMAO! Morad goes zoom! Great content! Thank you!
