Assetto Corsa | Stay CALM in the CHAOS! LFM Mazda MX-5 @ Nürburgring

- It’s been ages since I last raced in Assetto Corsa, so today I’m making a long overdue return for this Mazda MX-5 Cup race with Low Fuel Motorsport.
I’m well out of practice when it comes to Assetto Corsa LFM races, and I’m nearly three seconds off pole position here at the Nürburgring. I’ll be starting from P11 on a stacked grid of 26 cars, and I’ll need to find some extra race pace if I’m going to crack the top 10…

I just want to say, when I was eating reheated pizza for lunch when I was 14 or so (late 90s), I was watching DTM and BTTC on Eurosport and your comments bring me back to that special place. You have tremendous talent as a commentator and I love the fact you often race extremely well while always pushing for a positive attitude.
Ahh thank you Sam, that is exactly the inspiration for my channel! I have fond memories of the motorsport highlights packages on the BBC, Eurosport and Screensport in the early 90s, so that was exactly the style I wanted to emulate with my videos. Thank you 😃
Thoroughly enjoyed, sensible racing, hate drivers who think they own the track, must admit I chuckled when his aggression got the better of him. 👏
Yeah, there were some fast drivers in this race who didn’t seem to have the ability to race closely with others. So many people running into the back of the cars in front of them.
A very good race Chris, you did exceptionally well to avoid the chaos, and a great finishing position. When you say no pace, you're still a chunk faster than me, and I've definitely noticed recently that the Mazda's are getting more crash happy every week.
Thank you, yeah I was a little harsh on myself saying I was slow. At the time, 3 seconds off pole on a short circuit felt VERY slow, but actually P11 out of 26 is still above average. I think the fastest guys benefit from setups too, whereas I don’t. But yeah, speed didn’t equal success for a lot of these guys!
Nice one and a close one 😊. This one driver with this 3 taps, he got his karma xD. Loved it. Keep up the good work
Haha yeah, that was very satisfying!
fantastic as always 🍻
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed the Sunday morning viewing!
I know that one mistake that takes you down a notch (or two, three) all too well. Avoidance and consistency pay-off. What a great drive. Thanks for the content.
Thank you, it’s my pleasure, as always. Cheers for watching
Very well done! These Mazda races on LFM are always a blast. And if you keep it clean you typically end with a good result
Yeah exactly right. On pace alone, I probably shouldn’t have finished any higher than 11th or 12th. But it was crazy seeing how poor a lot of these guys were when trying to race closely together. So many people getting bumped and spun out.
Great job, Chris! Still surprises me how many people don't understand how important good consistency is.
Thanks Matt, yeah there was a dangerous combo in this one of very fast lap times and very low SRs!
Another excellent race, Chris! I sympathize with those little mistake you make. I make them too. I hate being chased... I stress about it and make mistakes. That red car near the beginning either had no spacial awareness, or he thought he was driving NASCAR and figured he could barge his way past you!
What a banger of an opening lap... A Literally.. Hahaha. Great race
Honestly don't even think I have AC installed... it's been ages since I even thought about it. You did well to avoid all those attempted blocks thinly disguised as "poor rejoins." 👍🏁
Haha yeah, they were certainly in a hurry to get back on track. AC is really good, I’ve not fired it up for ages, but always enjoy it when I do. The Mazdas still get decent participation on LFM, but the other series aren’t so popular now.
Another great race, Chris. Congrats again! 🥂
Thank you, yeah I’m enjoying this good run of results. I’m certain it won’t last!
Lots of close calls, gg!
Thanks, yeah it seemed like a lot of these guys were very fast, but maybe not so skilled in racing closely alongside or behind someone. The amount of people spun out by bumps from behind wasn’t great! Thankfully I managed to avoid it. Cheers!
Another fantastic race. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure David, cheers for watching 😃
Through goes Rogers!!! Great race Chris, I think the mx-5s are my favourite to watch.
Cheers mate, yeah it’s good to see the LFM participation is still high for this series. Was originally going to try the new Ferrari 296 series, but entries were pretty low. Glad I stuck with the Mazdas.
@@chrisrogerssimracing mazdas are always a safe bet, unlike ahem....Ruiney. 😅
Before the video 'Damn, I miss running the ac MX5 cup on LFM'
42 unsafe rejoins, people constantly tagging the back of others, massive pileups caused by people not having any awareness of whats happening around them and still refusing toput on a helicorsa app, people causing three others races to end while themselves getting away with losing minimal time
Yep, the memories are all coming back
Haha yep 🤣 it surprised me how so many people were unable to race closely alongside others. High ELOs but low safety ratings. Soegeng was really poor when racing behind people… like you say, spun multiple people out to gain advantages. No surprise his SR is so low. And the guy who kept driving into me on lap one, his SR was even lower still 🤣
@@chrisrogerssimracing One of the reasons I went over to ACC, at least the bar to entry is higher, and low SR drivers are segregated to the bottom splits of the rookie series. It's definitely not perfect, but it's definitely better. Plus the helicorsa being on by default probably helps too
As usual, you have underestimated yourself. Well done, Chris.
Thank you mate 😃
Dude would been dq’d on the first lap!!
Again, CR shows us the benefit of keeping it on the track - for the most part. Given the pace of most of the other drivers, I'd take that as a win.
Of course, the only reason I had the off-track was purely to test the grass physics 😉
@@chrisrogerssimracing 😂
Nice. You had a lot of luck going your way there but you did make some good decisions that kept you out of trouble for the most part. I'm enjoying seeing the improvements you are making in your racecraft. Keep it up.
FYI. There is a little trick i found that can help make the horrible interaction the cars have to some of the worst kerbs in this game more manageable. You can mitigate the reaction greatly by either being off throttle or at a constant speed (not increasing acceleration) while going over the kerbs. Maybe give it a try and see if you find the same and i hope it helps. 😁
Great run there Chris! Thanks for sharing w us!
Thank you Walt!
Great driving Chris you need to do these races more often
Thank you mate, I wanted to try the new Ferrari 296 series but the participation wasn’t too high for that. But this Mazda one definitely still seems popular. It’s a very fun series, so I really must come to do it more regularly 👍
Consistancy is king in the Mazda!!! Geat racing!
Definitely! Thank you mate
Gotta carry that speed with slow cars and limit mistakes, for sure. Consistency is king anywhere, though.
Great as ever 👍
Graham, thank you again! Very kind of you, and very much appreciated, as always. Cheers for the support 🍻
Wild seeing my name in yt videos
Ahh nice one, which one were you? Hope it was a successful race!
@@chrisrogerssimracing Considering it was an early morning race with one split I did alright in the sense I didn't cause too much trouble. P20, which for a beginner to the hobby I'm ok with. Your race was much more exciting I have to say. Hopefully later on I'm good enough to battle you for pole/first.
@@Ep1o Brilliant, that’s exactly the attitude to take. It’s much better to prioritise safety when you’re starting out, and build up the speed gradually as you get more confidence and race experience. You’ll get there, and I’m sure I’ll see you joining me in these top 10 battles soon 👍
I've done 11 Mx-5 Races in the past week, and I've only gained SR in two of them. Went from 8.5 to 6.5, and from what I'm hearing on the discord the next track is gonna be even worse. Not looking forward to it lmao.
This was my first Mazda race in months, so I must have got lucky with a good finish and +SR. Makes a change! Just checked next week’s track, never heard of it, so yeah it could be a recipe for disaster if everybody is unfamiliar with it! Good luck 😃
ZZZZzzzzz..... U snooze u loose
Ahhh yes, it was early Sunday morning viewing this morning 😃
Don't you use the Content Manager Radar? I think it's better than heli in some ways, and you can customise it with liveries for example. I can't race for months, I broke my finger, but at least I see you on LFM.
I didn’t even realise there was a built-in radar until recently. Has it always been there, or is it a newer addition? I just installed Helicorsa when I first tried AC a few years ago, and never looked to try anything else. I’ll take a look at this other one though 👍
And sorry to hear you can’t race. Hopefully the finger will be on the mend soon 🤞
@@chrisrogerssimracing It's not a very new addition, it was after helicorsa, I don't know how long it's really been around, it was as a standalone app. But a new app was added recently, App Shelf, where there is now the new edition of this radar with more features. In addition there is also the Extended Control of VRC. It's not the same as helicorsa or ACC radar for example, it's like AMS2.
What is LFM that I keep hearing about? Is it in content manager?
It’s a website. Low Fuel Motorsport. They host races, and have their own schedules, ratings and stuff. Worth checking out if you like online racing on AC or ACC 👍
@@chrisrogerssimracing thank you, I do iRacing but the schedule is a bit slim and time restricted for my tastes so I will check it out!
Is there any good reason why you keep shouting the constant and frenetic comments? Seems like you could be do a lot better to keep the shouting down to a minimum... please. Jeez, take a deep breath now and then.
Because I do these videos as a hobby. So I make them in the format I like, and the style I enjoy on a personal level. Some people enjoy them, some people don’t. Generally I’d like to think that the people who enjoy it will watch them, and the people who don’t enjoy it don’t have to watch them. Makes sense to me. I don’t charge any paid memberships or premium content, so everything is free… anybody who doesn’t like my videos, isn’t out of pocket in any way. So I don’t see the problem.
He cuts the boring bits mate. A little higher tempo & enthusiasm is standard for what is essentially a highlight reel. 🍻🏁
