I'm really enjoying your channel. A real GT3 racing driver doing sim racing and sharing knowledge is fantastic.
Much appreciated!
Count me also. I just discovered this channel today !! And I’m already watching the vids over and over and subscribed and all the bells and whistles 🏁
me 3 daniel is one of my favorite drivers
Really loving this mate. The Editing, music, production and of course, the professional feedback from such an established driver. Please keep up the work 🎉
Thanks so much Alex!!
The hard part with sim racing for me, sim racing is all visuals. I know braking and turn in patience are my weak point. I always compare it being in an actual car (I've done track time in the past). It's not the same, looking at a screen vs feeling the car and seeing actual pyshical visuals, is just two different worlds. The instructions you give are very well put.
You’re so right. It’s something that takes time. Personally, I found VR a great way to transition from real life to the sim. It gives you more depth perception.
Braking Bad 😅👌🏻
Not as good as the show but it’ll help on track haha
That title is the only reason I click on the video lol
Hahaha😂
Stop it - BIT€H!
Thank you for helping me understand how wrong I’m braking and how to correct years of terrible braking habits. I’ve been treating every turn as a “brake late and hard as possible” often killing momentum through fast turns or trying to ask too much from the car in tight turns. Liked and Subscribed!
❤ Yes, braking is essential
Absolutely
@@danielmorad Laguna Seca really teaches the art of braking
So well done and explained, Dan. Extremely informative, as well as descriptive! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Ginger!
I could listen to you all day
Thanks so much!
Absolutely excellent video, thank you. Feel like you are putting into words what I've been trying to find in the dark for a long time. Great explanation 👌 Looking forward to your next one 👍
Thanks so much. Looking forward to having you join the community.
Enjoying all these informative video's. Keep the knowledge rolling
We will keep it flowing! Enjoying this a lot
Ha! Love that you use the string concept with steering - I started using it after a recent epiphanie; I've never reeeaaally understood "break in straight line" because obviousley that's what I'm fricken trying to do, but i was distracted by thinking of the whole car and had a hard time feeling when it was indeed straight. Then I changed it to "always break with the wheel as centered as possible" and that was so much easier to judge. Then once that clicked, to help time my trail or accel i thought of it as the wheel being "straight = 100% input, more angle = proportionally less input" then that intuitively led me to imagine strings pulling on the pedals. It has been helping me smooth out/ coordinate my hands to feet and seems effective, but I wasn't sure if it was a "good" idea or just a bridge between total noob and better techniques, mostly because I hadn't heard it before and if you watch onboards it's not really done like that, or at least very hard to tell.
Anyway you've ratified my theory, thank you!
PS - I've been using it to time corner exit accel too - do you you recommend that as well? do you use it as a loose guiding principle or do you very strictly follow it? thanx again!
PPS - Jimmy sent me here - great channel so far!
Thanks so much to Jimmy for sending here.
It’s not quite as generic as that but it’s a great starting point. When I do my one on one coaching sessions, we get into a lot more detail.
I originally learnt the 'string' technique as it related to corner exit acceleration. It's a good starting point. Interesting to see it used for trail braking also.
Great, great video. thank you very much! loving the videos!
My pleasure
This is great really enjoying your channel!
Thank you so much! It’s been super fun
I stumbled onto your sim rig review and now I`m subscribed. Thanks sharing this info on braking this will be very useful!
Awesome, thank you!
Really needed this. Thank you. I'm new to sim racing and have been using practice modes to essentially experiment with what I can get away on cornering..which I'm sure is the worst way to learn lol.
Great to hear! Glad this has been helpful to you. Enjoy the sim racing journey. See you on track :)
I always learn something watching your videos. Youre awesome! Love following your racing career as well. Much success!!!
Thanks a lot! Trying to balance the entertainment and education:). Hope it comes across well.
Genious title my dude, good job👌
Great stuff! & great tips, thx for sharing & making such Quality content Daniel :) Cannot wait for more :)
Thanks so much!!
I’ve watched so many videos on trail braking and they all do fast corners so that’s what I’ve been trying to do in hairpins too 🤦🏾♂️ thanks for explaining both types 😊
New to the channel, but I have been steadily catching up on your much enjoyable and useful content. I'm now subscribed and notified!
Amazing. Thanks so much. I’m gonna work on my skit for saying to subscribe and like the video lol. I’m not a very good RUclipsr yet.
Great stuff man! I’ve applied this to the sim and IRL. Managing weight makes driving so much less dramatic. Keep up the great work. I must’ve watched this video 5 times.
That’s awesome. I’m so happy that this has helped you out.
Congratulations to the win today!! Here to learn from one of the best, been subbed to you for awhile and other day saw you were doing 24 at Daytona again this year and wow what a finish man! After that last yellow flag you just went into beast mode keeping 2 seconds between you and P2. Incredible stuff brother, loved it! Wish you had more broadcast time
thanks for this video. this was by far the most helpful video that i watched about sim racing. looking forward to learn more from your materials!!
Thanks so much! Happy that it helped
i was able to carve out at least one sec on my every track records applying this 😂😂 thank you!
Loving these videos! Keep up the great work!
Thanks! Will do! Might turn this into an educational series
@@danielmorad That would be epic. From all my subs, you are the freshest and best content atm. Love your content, patience, delivery, editing... Top notch!
Very helpful tips, thank you!
You're so welcome!
Thank you !! Really great video !
My pleasure. Glad you liked it
Very well done Sir.
Clean, crisp, easy to understand.
You've certainly earned a like and a subscription 😎
Wishing you only the very best!
Awesome! Thanks so much for the nice words.
How am I not yet subscribed to you?! Brilliant video, keep them coming
Thanks so much!
This was so helpful. Love the content.
Glad it was helpful!
Killer video found you on twitch and have enjoyed your content keep it up brother looking forward to learning more from you on my sim racing career
Thanks so much. See you online.
This is excellent. Thanks and more of this please.
We’re on it!! Thanks man
this is gold, thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!
Daniel friggen Morad! Keep it up man, I love these videos!
Haha. Thanks a lot!!
Great video bud. I find I focus on two main things; hitting the apex point with as much speed as possible, and getting my car position correct at that point.
Other than that, I allow my braking markers and exit points to create themselves. This let me focus on keeping the car on the edge.
Nice to see you spoke about balance and weight transfer, two things I think a lot of rookies forget about.
Loving your content, thankyou.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much
Love this video! I watch it a lot to get it drilled in my head so I can apply it to the sim. Are you going to upload like a part 2 to this when it comes to throttle modulation during cornering and opening up steering on corner exit when applying full throttle?
I definitely need to make a follow up to this!
Excellent practical advice!
Thanks a lot
Great information and some tips that can help everyone!
Glad you think so!
Great info! I might be able to find the apex now!
You and me both. Just make sure you flip over on the right side first
bro i love this series 🔥keep it up morad
Thanks so much
Hey man. Just wanted to let you know. I’ve been sim racing for around 8 years, and been racing on different game systems well before that. This little video has totally improved my technique to the tune of shaving 8-12 seconds, which seems insane, off my current laps. Now this is one track and one day, but holy shit. I knew the concept of everything you’re talking about, but I dunno I guess the way you explained it just clicked. So thanks a million and you got a subscriber for life. Really like that you’re a pro GT3 driver and can use that experience to host a channel on sim racing. You will have tons of subs in the future.
That is incredible. I honestly I’ve never seen that big of an improvement or heard of it. I’m so happy to have helped. I will make a lot more information or videos that will help improve driving technique.
8-12 seconds? Sure bro, everybody believes you
@@MrAsus4870 I could care less who believes me lol, I’m sure af not here to get your approval. Just saying thanks to OP for the tips that helped me. Get lost.
I’ve found myself that I’m faster if I break softer in the faster corners but never really understood why. Now that you mention it keeping the balance more neutral or having control over the balance of the car makes perfect sense why did I not realise this earlier.
Exactly. Have another video coming out shortly about this topic that helps touch on this further. Also helps show examples of it.
wow this is straight up Gold Thanks! 👊
Thanks a lot!!
Amazing series!
Thanks so much
I was just learning Hokenheim in rFactor 2 and it took me some time to realize I had to brake much earlier on T1 than I thought at first, even if the corner is much faster than other ones. Your video explains that very well. The objective is to have higher exit speed, and if you brake too late, you have to slow down more to make the turn, and your exit suffers from it. However, if you are on a hair pin, you don't have a choice but to go slower on the corner, so might as well brake as late as possible. Great explanation 👌
This video is a perfect example of how you can approach T1. Glad it helped
I'm new to sim (100 hours) and your content is relatable as to what I'm aiming for.
That’s awesome. Glad to hear.
Great contents! Thank you! 😃
My pleasure!
Thanks man ! Good info !
Glad it was helpful!
Really good channel that's appeared here! attention to detail on your videos is nice and they're very well made. The effort is obvious.
Maybe some video about how traction control, or ABS should be used to adjust your driving style in disciplines, like GT, that use them? I'm sure a lot of us apply the same approach whether these are on or off but surely it must be different.
These are great ideas. We have so many ideas and videos queued up. Going to pump out content!
Just found your channel, this is invaluable thanks ✌🏾🙂
Awesome. Thanks for the nice feedback :)
@@danielmorad No problem. I noticed you use the Simucube pedals, you definitely have great taste. I will have to save up a long time... 😅
Great video! I would have wanted to see more explanation about the tips about how to let go off braking (trail brake off). I think I go off the brakes too fast before starting to rotate the wheel for the turning point but I have trouble understanding what's the optimal target and how to figure it out other than lots of trial and error.
You explain things very well man. I practice hard and I think the trail braking has taken the longest to get right and I'm not there yet but also I notice how tense my body is when in a sim race. I know this is affecting my braking also. Thanks for another great lesson 👍🏻🍻🥃🥃🍀🇮🇪🤝🏻
My pleasure. Perhaps setting your seat and position up correctly could help this. Have you seen that video? It was the last one we made.
@@danielmorad that video helped me a lot, my legs were not in the right position, I changed that, changed my pedal position also, I’m using more of my feet to brake and accelerate now and that made me have a lot more control on trail braking and traction coming out of the corners! Thank you!
@Daniel Morad yes Daniel. That was the first one I seen and all that really helped. Thanks again
I’m really struggling with the Mercedes lately. I am going to focus on some of the things you mentioned. I really don’t want to give up on my beloved AMG. Thanks for the video!
Hopefully these tips help you out.
Yes! I cant wait for this video!!!
Pumped for you to see it.
Nice Video. I left a subscription right away. I am already looking forward to the next videos.
Awesome, thank you so much!
Is that a Rolex date just in a rose gold Jubilee bracelet?? if so, that's class!! 👌
It is a date just. It’s a rolesor jubilee bracelet. Thank you!
Danny decided to call my exact issues out and fix my driving haha 💪 awesome video thanks for the tips!
Haha! That’s awesome! Glad this helps you out 😁
Just found your channel. Great info and so well explained. I always tend to brake late and hard thinking this is the fastest way. Well...is not! Thank you!
Awesome! Glad this helps :)
That’s provided so much clarity for me after mentioning the most important part, being the balance of the car. Can’t wait to try this and hopefully find a couple tenths here and there. “Last of the late brakers” will be getting ditched. Thank you, and you’ve got another sub. Great content.
P.S. Ive got work for a couple of days but I’ll be watching again and getting geared up for Jerez next week in Iracing. Top guy!!
Thanks so much. Welcome to the community. Glad to help you out a little bit. Maybe I’ll see you online.
@@danielmorad I don’t know about that haha. I’m sure that my goals are a little different to yours lol. I’m on the road to 3k. Sitting at 2.8 at the moment but had a good couple of months. Aim high eh?
Really appreciate you taking the time to reply.
Great tips thanks, gained some time on Red Bull ring this week 👌
Glad to hear it!
Hi Daniel, thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I’m always trying to be conscious about my braking and this helps a lot! Absolutely great video mate.
Happy to help!
Damn, no one's taught me tip #3 until today. Really great video, that was extremely helpful. Great stuff.
Vibration changes the whole experience. It’s great!
A great video! Thank you🙏 made me go a lot faster
Glad it helped!
Editing and production are top notch, but this is just scratching the surface on Beginner Braking Techniques. Advanced techniques are not even mentioned here, let alone anything considered "Mastery". I mean, the main method you describe will induce people into coasting through corners. Almost any coasting is losing time. Fully off the brake before turning in? Perhaps on a few corners, but stating it (at least as I took it) as the rule rather than the exception is confusing at best, and deceptive at worst.
This video will get you through corners SAFER, but almost certainly not FASTER.
Criticisms aside, I very much WANT to like your channel. Any real content us pretend drivers can get from a real one is gold. Just keep working at it.
Thanks for the feedback. Will definitely continue to improve
I love these videos, as a new sim racer, i love hearing someone with experience tell me how i am losing so i can fight harder.
This is only the beginning. I’m going to continue this series on educating you had to go faster and Race better.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Phenomenal driver with some solid instructions
Thanks so much
Simplemente.... BRUTAL !!.... ❤❤
Having started with no pedals learning braking was the roughest but most rewarding thing thus far.
Absolutely
Fantastic, made me about 2 seconds faster breaking the way you teach. Thank you very much, keep on sharing, alot of average simracers will benefit :D
Great to hear! That’s awesome
This is really great information. I think many people try to utilize a gradual braking method but then get drilled by the people who just slam on the brakes.
Definitely good to keep in mind though.
Thanks a lot! For sure it sucks when others don’t know what they’re doing but if you’re faster, then they don’t get close haha
As a guy who is enjoining starting the sim adventure and an engineer, love understanding these strategies and mechanics. It makes what I've been "feeling" make sense.
Awesome. Glad to be sharing this with you
Your a true gent putting in the time 👍
Thank you for watching :)
Really good info but very collocated to get it right. Does this apply the all chassis layouts and driveline setups? Also left foot vs right foot braking?
Amusingly the video shows catalunya..but the drawing on board reminds me of Donnington 😂....that aside, the tips are genuinely great!
I’m basically an artist lol
@Daniel Morad 🤣🤣🤣
Im not so great on sweeping corners that require light trail braking but tight corners im nice and smooth this video helps me a lot understand what im doing wrong
Great to hear! Work on that and you’ll be golden!
You might want to speak about throttle steer and breaking together
All your info was spot on, but in a “purpose built” high horsepower car, throttle steer will gain significantly in lap time
Hey Morad. Have you considered a video on managing traffic in multi class? Could be educational for all 🙂
Henrik, great idea!!!! That’s so good. I can also include real life footage for that too
@@danielmorad Yess. This would be a great video! Both from a GT3 and LMP perspective, if possible!
@@danielmoradthat would be an epic video
Great video and good points. I do find the music distracting and it made me go back a few times for re-caps. Fading it in and out to not overload the viewer could be a step up.
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll pass it along to my editor :)
Daniel you the man.
No, you!
@Daniel Morad I am a new sub and enjoying your expertise. When learning to drive @ 14 in 1984 my Dad HAMMERED into me “NEVER touch the brake with your left foot.” Now I have to learn left foot braking in iRacing and I don’t know how to start 🙄
You can brake with left or right foot. Technique is the same.
@@danielmorad I bit the bullet and started left foot braking. Feels really weird but I already appreciate the lack of lag when I need to brake. Bonus side effect I now realize all my clutch down-shifting has been pointless. Not taking LFB in real races yet... just AI races for now. Cheers
@Daniel Morad Great explanations !
Question : isn't it more correct to use "Load transfer" instead of "Weight transfer" ? I learnt the difference with that joke : "Weight transfer is when your stepmother has no seatbelt locked and you use full braking" !
So it's more load on front tires, yes, on braking but the weight of the car never changes : 1000kg car is always 1000kg in any movement of it.
Am I wrong ? Thanks a lot if you answer !
Fancy words. Same thing.
I appreciate your efforts, primarily I race f3, recently practicing Gt3, f3 is barely any brakes. In iracing seems like everyone is braking so frigging late its ridiculous, I almost get crushed cause I brake normal, it sickens me that to be competitive I have to do the same or get wrecked, arguments blow up, wasn't expecting you to brake so early mate... whatever. today's iracers have figured a way to break the physics of the sim. Even the ai does it! 😢
It’s all about achieving the maximum balance on the tire
Great video mate. Just asking what’s the telemetry tool that you use for live throttle and brake tracing? Been trying to look for it but can’t seem to find it
It’s from RaceLabs
Fantastic
Hell yea love this type of stuff! Although I ride sportbikes its the same concept. That driving simulator is unfreakinreal!
There are definitely things that translate. Thank you so much.
This is going to help me a lot with T2 on Thunderhill East. I've been braking way too late and too hard and the car is upset through what should be a fast, stable corner.
That’s awesome. This is definitely going to help you. You’ll find a lot more stability with the different braking style.
2 1/2 years into sim racing and trail braking is one of the things I still struggle with. Sometimes I can do it right and sometimes I get it way wrong it gets so frustrating. I always find myself 2-3sec off the faster drivers.
I made a video about steering with your feet. That’s a good one to watch.
@@danielmorad Just watched it. Now just got to practice it.
Really enjoy this channel James Baldwin should of done more stuff like this ❤❤❤
Thank you
More content like this!
Thanks a lot.
Quick question: do you brake to downshift too or do u brake while also pressing the downshift button on the paddle shifter?
Great tips, are these breaking tips in general techniques rather than game specific? I play iRacing, ACC and Raceroom and all three are a bit different when breaking into turns.
These would be more applicable to iRacing in real life. Some of these other simulators don’t use correct, braking technique that I would consider similar to real life.
Whats up man, so the Nurburgring 24 is coming up and its going to be my first endurance event. Since you do the Daytona 24 and won it, I thought I ask you for some tips. Im mainly worried about the endurance part since I dont race for this long usually, any tips? Thanks man!
Go pee before you start driving.
i love this content. so many little tips that is hard to learn without coaching. I always thought braking late was the best, but then it makes sense why sometimes a lap that feels fast, is actually slow. i do HPDE track days and sim
Could you make a video showing the approximate weight distribution of each tire from the braking point to exit point? Assuming a balanced car has 25% on each tire. Thx
That could be possible. I’ll try to think about how to do it first.
Any difference or things to adjust when driving a GTE car with no abs? Things like adjusting brake pressure. Adjusting brake points etc?
Not really. Same technique applies.
Hi Daniel, love the videos. What sims would you say are most accurate to real word racing? I’ve raced karts in the past but never cars with suspension. Assetto corsa competizione, rfactor2, assetto corsa and rally games I play.
Kind regards
Thanks so much! Of all the sims I’ve tried, iRacing does it best. Not all the cars are amazing, but overall, it’s the closest you’ll get.
@@danielmorad thank you for the reply mate
Pro racing driver giving lesson about racing, I am listening Sir. My questions are: 1. Does your new Simcube pedals help you to go faster? Compared to older one.
2. Do you activate ABS when driving in sim racing?
3. Which one faster, ABS on or ABS off?
4. Which one faster, TC on or TC off?
Your Vlog really helps me to improve, much appreciated.
Simucube pedals make me more consistent. I try not to activate the ABS too hard. ABS on and TC on but set to the correct settings is important. Glad it’s helping.
@@danielmorad at the correct setting, I got it. I also do trackday, and I do simracing to get to know the circuit. Thanks man.
Ok i figured out my question.
If my braking points are slightly different than the driver on my tail often i feel i cant brake because if i do i get punted but if i dont apply my brakes i overshoot the apex so how do i manage this? Thank you!
Can you do a video about downshifting when breaking. Also, which gear for corners when to downshift as the car decelerate, downshifting to get more rotation into the corner, and when to upshift when exiting the corner as you accelerate. This is what I struggle to nail down.
That’s a good idea. I can do that as a short video.
@@danielmorad thanks 😊 🙏
Can you also detail the optimum time to downshift is it when the car reaches a certain speed? I guess my question is how to downshift efficiently.
