Damn racing without downforce sure is close! I mean, 5 cars seperated by what looks like less than a second and racing side by side looks just thrilling
This is the first time i've seen this motorsport in my life. I've been watching F1 in many seasons now (including Formula E) and I never encounter this kind of race. Thanks so much and CONGRATULATIONS to you! You just got yourself a subscriber.
Nice race! Congrats for the win. I bet you had lots of fun by the looks of things. Really appreciate how clean you drove the entire race, plus you showed patience until the checker flag.
@@crowseye4434You could pick one up for as little as $5,000 AU. I'm not sure where you're from, but that's probably about $3,000 US. That's the most budget old model, so you wouldn't be winning any races with it. You can spend up to ten times more for a good one. Then, the cost of running a season depends on how many races you do, how many crashes you have, and how much you're prepared to do yourself. Typically, the cost of a season would be about the same as the car itself. So, pick a number and double it.
@@brett22bt thanks! New to the racing world in general and wanted to see of the possibility of a normal guy who isn’t rich being able to do this for a hobby. Those prices are more reasonable than I thought
Thanks, as if i don't waste all of my money on motorcycles, guns, and my Rabbit GTI. Now I have to source a bug rear end and motor, bodywork, and take the dust off the old TIG welder..... This racing is beyond cool, and they have it near Massachusetts where I live!
Spending money on any VW, especially old Golf's, is probably the biggest waste that can be made. There is a saying over here in europe > "VW, steig aus und geh". >> VW, get out and walk. I drove a Passat years ago. As I switched to Citroen C5 Exclusive (I had my fears) I was more than impressed with the build quality, the driving quality, the interior and all the things you get for free while you have to pay for at VW and Audi. The C5 had his belt change at 240000km. The VW at 80000! The Cit never had any problem! Tyres, Breaks, Belt and one lamp had to be changed. That was it! Whereas the VW continuosely was a stedy guest in garages. Friends saw that and were more than happy as they changed to other brands. Idiotic brand!
@@wolfgangmarkusgstrein8522 So because you don't like VW I can't? Odd, makes me love them even more. I'm on my 4th VW jetta and the other 3 have made it to over 300,000miles with easy maintenance. I have a mk1 rabbit with a 2.5L 5 cylinder swap that is an oversized go-kart, but to each their own!
@Andre Hpunkt "This is why so many people don't like Germans". You're doing exactly what the other guy did you idiot. Nobody cares about your personal anecdotes mong
Excellent racecraft exhibited there. I wondered what you would do going from 1st to 6th in half a lap but you waited until the overtake was there and took it. Well done.
I know its old but I loved watching this. I have been looking for a brand new or lightly used Formula Vee to get in to racing but there does not seem to be many resources that track that.
Who needs F1 when there is this! Congrats for the win! I'd love to see better suspension setups, though: the vee-dub's is more than sketchy. I dig the low power and the lack of wings. It makes for more entertaining races.
Everyone is on the same equipment- “formula” racing. Sure, you start making “better” suspensions and the affordable factor goes away. If you want a bigger budget do formula fords. Formula Vee is pretty inexpensive on the scale of racing.
@@fishhuntadventure true, however, the gain from a modified suspension over the involved cost is justified. After reading into this formula, I saw that this aspect was changed after a few years.
Very great racing and much respect given by all! Couple of comments and questions...I raced FV here in the USA(chicago region) some years ago. I see your cars run some kind of muffler...we had a 4 Tinto 1 header with a open collector tuned to a certain length..but more interesting is that the exhaust system was within the length of the transmission, meaning the cars have stout sturdy rear "shift protectors", really bumpers. And in the front under the fiberglass nose we have metal bracing(bumper). This means we can bump draft and do, like at tracks like Road America with three long straights....this race track would be ideal for that! Looks like your rules package prevents this. Also, we ran very stock front beams with external vertical shocks that were in the original stock VW mounting location. I dont know what you guys are running, like some lay down shock?
This is amazing to watch. No advertising, no annoying announcers, just pure skillful driving and the beautiful sounds of racing.
bruh right after the iRacing update I get this

We sould go back to classic racing. Those days of the metal sigars were crazy exciting!
@@lordbogus6709 i always liked watching Formula Ford back in the days
Less grip = more fun
Less grip = more crashes in rain
@Arzell Who are you? Lewis Hamilton?
This is the most entertaining onboard I’ve seen in a while. Looks like a blast
Damn, the draft really IS strong in these.
Must’ve had a pretty high heart rate during parts of this. Great respect and trust between these drivers!
the most entertaining thing me and my little brother have watched in a long time
3:36 great handle

Yea formula vees have some great racing my dad and grandpa use to race them before he sold the cars. Sadly it’s a dying class 😞
same here

Muy buena carrera !!!
Mas acción que en la formula 1 👍
what a win!!! that was amazing
More exciting than modern F1
Who needs all those fancy expensive race cars? This is what racing is all about right there. Absolutely fantastic!
this is expensive for me
@@alexmarchand1992 Yes it is for me as well. But still quite cheap in relative terms.
@@brett22bthow much do these typically go for?

Project Cars 3 have this category, it's funny to drive. I'm imagine in real life :)
Dude, the best graphics! 😉
These look so fun to drive. Crazy how much the draft comes into play
great racing, everyone was super respectful
Top race Aaron great job enjoyed the footage
Very satisfying ride!!!!
Thanks, for posting!
Who’s here after the new racing update
This is truly awesome bro😍😍
You just can't give up! You've gotta be there in the end. Keeping yourself going has to be the hardest part.
Watched the whole thing! What an absolutely awesome race !!!
Oh man I would love to drive one of these things. Light weight, low center of mass, and open top would be so much fun
Wow, this was really exciting. Just pure racing, loved it!
que top cara! melhor que ver f1...
Awesome man, good passes.
Thanks for sharing.
Amazing track!
Awesome race!

Lucky! I just found out that they're still racing this class! I thought it was canceled long ago.

Wow mate, great drive!! Really electric racing!
Nice race on a beautiful day
This looks like so much fun 😊
very cool race, you are a master!
Really cool. Great determination and skills to win. Big balls racing.
beautiful
Damn has more down force than the williams
Fantastic
Really good driving mate! Would have been awesome to have a second camera towards the rear to see those other FVs from that perspective too.
Excellent racecraft exhibited there. I wondered what you would do going from 1st to 6th in half a lap but you waited until the overtake was there and took it. Well done.
Exiting, competitive race!
Nice video!
What a battle! Well done
great racing!
Great race !!!!
Awesome finish!
what a clean driving. hypnotizing.

Brilliant FINISH!

Man that looks like fun
what an ending!
Muito bom, TOP
Nice driving mate
Congratilation
This new iRacing update has a really realistic graphic.
I saw this in my recommended and was like "wait what 2018? The update just came out" and then realized it's real life
That understeer safe tho
I would say an oversteer

arguably more entertaining than formula 1
Those games get so realistyc without HUDs
Nice
Man these games are getting more realistic each day it passes aren't they?
Better than F1:D
Hahah good joke
Intense!
FV is just about the most fun racing there is.
Thats real racing. What American FV racing "used" to be like.
wow!!!
Que isso e formula 1
🔥
nice graphics, what game is this?
I'm not familiar with these cars and at first I wasn't excited to see them race. However I must say that this was an exciting race and great win.
Not many give this class the time of day. But how close the racing is, is unreal. Such a big rush and anyone can win
. Great racing.
16:35 BIG BOLS!
do you heel toe downshift in these cars? is it possible to simply left foot brake and blip the throttle to downshift?
this is some good shit
We still need F1, but this is way better.
Even though I read the title, for a moment I wasn't sure if this was real life or one of those fancy race sims
what is the top speed of these race cars?
initially thought it was what kind of game
👏
Iracing knocking it outta the park now days
That was very well done
Aaron Lee in a formula Vee
Which sim is this? Nice graphics
Agradecería comentarios de tipo, tipo de motor, cilindrada, HP, velocidad máxima, peso del vehículo a cualquiera que tenga esos datos. Salud🤙
if Gran Turismo 7 doesn't look like that I will be pissed off
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Nice driving! One question:
How many cars were in the race more or less?
13 cars in that race.
2019
These cars are more than a handful to drive around elevation,props man
Its looks like a videogame
Who else said "WHOOOOO" at the end
What kind of top speeds are we talking??
Para um galopeiro, andou bem.
16:35 WELL DONE !
this looks both realistic and sim racing at the same time
