Great channel, content and commentary...happily subscribed!
Ah thank you buddy - really appreciate it 👍👍
Thanks for the race. When you tried that move on outside, i was like: if he can keep that on track, fair play play to him.
Ah mate delighted you found the video! Classic that I then proceeded to nearly crash the car at the next corner 😂😂 Hopefully see you on track again soon!
Nice driving !
Hats off to both of you!
your commentary makes these videos so good. great work. this race was amazing! this is why we do it!
Ah thanks so much mate - appreciate the kind feedback!
I love GT3's as much as the next guy, but these single class races are as good as it gets in sim racing!
First I was thinking "what a clickbait!". Then I watched and thought "ok, that's fair".
I love when you find a competitor who races clean and makes the race great
100% mate - fantastic fun!
how can you possibly say that this is clean driving (!!?)
He was constantly flashing his lights...
Hi Ben, just wanted to chime in to say thank you for the fantastic content! Your commentary really is top notch, visually the videos look stunning, and I absolutely love this video format of going through a race. As a former pro real life driver I find myself yelling at the screen to DEFEND a few times but that’s all part of the fun! 😂 When I see your videos pop up it’s always an instant click nowadays, so that should tell you all there is to know about how much I enjoy them :D definitely my favorite racing-related channel alongside Jimmy atm! Keep it up and cheers ❤
EDIT: the move around the outside at Hawthorn was sensational, props!
Ah thanks so much Gabriele - really appreciate the kind message! It means a lot to know you enjoy the videos!
BTW in the apps that come with Real Penalty is one called RP Config - that one allows you to move and scale all those RP elements :)
I did not know that! Thanks Ondrej!
AC LFM VRC Touring cars has been some of the most fun racing I have done in a long time and it looks like I'm nit the only one that thinks that.
Great battle and result after that less than ideal start 👍🏻
Great race Ben. Exciting as always. So good to see hard but fair battles.
Cheers Matt - hope you’re well!
What an absolutely fantastic race with plenty of respect shown to each other. Got to say I’m almost contemplating giving it a go. I’ll be the sitting duck at the back cutting the grass!! Awesome commentary as usual.
Amazing race!!! Well done 😊
I noticed AC is very forgiving when it comes to the grass, people go off but they recover rather quickly, at 8:29 he went out and came back. That would have been almost race ending in iRacing because he would have spun out or hit the wall.
I'm guessing a part of it is that AC is driven less than iRacing, so there are fewer people exploiting the grass physics, leading to a sim that can have more forgiving grass physics.
I know it happened a lot in iRacing that people would take track cuts over the grass to save time, and that's one component in iRacing's grass physics being as dreadful to cars as they are.
Here, there's a track cut system running (which might be a part of LFM) that, I believes, either gives you a penalty or disqualifies you if you cut the track 3 times.
@@sorrowandsufferin924 actually AC is the one sim that is driven pretty much just as much as iRacing, but not so much in competitive online ( although WSM has been running it for some time ).
Yeah and AC is very vulnerable to a specific cheat. If I see someone constantly making mistakes but recovering so fast and having so much more exit speed, I get instantly suspicious.
These old touring car races have been thrilling. You must have been a wreck after that race finished.
I was sweating buckets 😂😂 Really awesome to see this series being so popular on LFM! Hopefully bodes well for the season!
Nice video. Great race against the Vector
That was a nailbiter! Great show for the virtual motorsport fans at Brands Hatch that day 😁
Just discovered your channel. Love the commentary and editing! Instant sub.
Ah thanks Tim mate - really appreciate it! Lots of race vids and guides on the channel, and more VRC tourers coming up this week from Oulton Park. If I can survive it 😂😂
@@Ben_LaBroca Can't wait to see it! oulton is a dangerous place. Good luck!
Great racing, replays and commentary. First time on your channel and iam impressed of the quality of your Videos. Almost feels like watching these touring races back in the days
Ah mate thank you very much - I'm really pleased you enjoyed it. Lots more on the channel and to come in future weeks!
Great race mate. This combo has been fantastic! Once your through the first lap or 2, the racing quality has been top! Glad you got a good race!
A great race once again Ben! Btw just saw the new banner, I really like it!
Ah cool - glad you like it buddy!
Felt like i was in the race! Awsome commentary.
Ah cheers Chris - glad you enjoyed it!
WOW. Fun race. Glad to have found your channel Ben. Looking forward to the next one!
Great race! Some nice liveries too! 🏁
Great video, as always Ben! I wanted to ask, have you ever raced the skippy in iracing? Your race-long battle in this video reminded me of some of my own favorite moments in the skippy. It's a great car for those back and forth battles, in my opinion
That looked like a really fun race!
Man, that was some great racing!
I might even start racing against people again after seeing this - i hate people - this won't change that, but it might make things bearable 😊
shoutout to myself cause im in the video, im in the Gojira that gets taken out in the Turn 2 by the flying Peugeot xD (Cole)
Ah mate what a shame! And you get a whack on rejoining too!! Hope you had better luck in other races!
@@Ben_LaBroca considering i raced as fast as i could gained quite a few positions back and ended in top 10, at some point i was behind you but the gap was too big. So far loving this series as i also love the 1990s btcc cars. Looking forward for the rest of the season especially the GB tracks!
@@spidey2085 ah nice work! Yeah I think I’ll prioritise running the British rounds - depending on what else is on LFM and iracing calendar next week I may skip Assen
What a race. Thanks
AC,LFM, awesome,kiss my rear spoiler iracing😊
Hahaha!
7:30 clean racing in this server, except for you.. lol you pushed that guy off the track .. convenient how you couldn't watch THAT replay loooool
Replay and apology followed in the video - just need to resist skipping ahead chief 😅
Clean racing!? I’m not 3 mins in and it’s absolute mayhem every couple corners. Must have been 30 bits of contact and over half a dozen cars flying off the track. Absolutely fun to watch though. I’m sure the race settles in and the OP had a great battle with another driver or two. I love those races or practice sessions when you find a few people you’re neck and neck with while giving respect. THE reason we do this. Seems like a good bit of this field is quite new at least to racing with other humans. Once the lights go out nerves and things can take a hot lap hero or fast practice guy and turn his skills upside down. Not knocking anyone, just making an observation. Great video though! Awesome first 3 mins of viewership. Might even sub!
@@robertmason3752 haha thanks Robert! Clean by touring car standards perhaps?!? 😂
Finally committed myself to just iracing, but it looks like I need to try this!
For a driver who makes so many mistakes, Oles is suspiciously fast out of the corners.
Proper BTCC cars, good times.
Nice, got to try this
VRC touring pack is perhaps the best mod overall for AC. RWD cars are generally better in RF2/LMU but FWD touring come close
That was me that got punted at Druids first lap, in the white / green decals car.
I haven’t had as much luck as you unfortunately.
Ah hey buddy - you’re in the CR Sim Racing squad right?? Big shame to have the race wrecked so early. Maybe my terrible start saved me?!
I managed to finish 8th, damaged car with a tyre stuck in the grille😅
@@richardsracingmad haha nice effort!
See you on the grid Ben💪
This is touring cars I think he would have stayed on had he banged your doors a little. I don’t think it was a dive.
Can you tell me which overlays you're using for AC and where I can get them? I'm not happy with the ones I have.
Hello! Yes it’s the new RaceLab Apps for Assetto Corsa. If you Google that ^ it’ll take you to their website. There is a free and paid for version, with the paid for version adding some functions and customisation.
@@Ben_LaBroca thank you so much. I am really enjoying AC on LFM, even using an H Pattern shifter & clutch with Logitech Pro wheel and THSA shifter. It's crazy fun, but I just need a little more Situational Awareness! Great video!
@@RandyMagruder ah that sounds like an awesome setup. Hopefully see you on track sometime!
Nice race. 👍
Ben I suspect I know why you lost 10 positions off the start: you waited until the green light to engage first gear. You might want to shift into first once the red lights go on, with a foot on the brake in order to ensure the car doesn't move ahead and get a penalty - while giving it some throttle. Some cars won't move even at full throttle, so you need to experiment ahead of time to see how much you can give before it nudges ahead, in order to avoid a potential penalty. This way you won't lose so much time once the green drops. Same technique we all use in motocross and if you knew how many holeshots I got in the past (before I had kids and gave up racing real bikes), you'd realize why this is key to a good start.
On the plus side at least you avoided being taken out at the mess at the first turn. That could easily have been you going upside should you have had a good start.
What is low fuel moto for those of us fairly new to sims?
The game settings for these cars don’t allow us to select a gear until Green Light
@@richardsracingmad Really, so AC doesn't allow you to put the car in gear before the green shines? Doesn't sound very realistic to me, surprised to hear of this oversight from what should be a proper sim. Will have to remember this before I see AC on sale again and contemplate whether to take the plunge. Thanks for clarifying this.
1:24 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What is the overlay you're using here?
It’s called RaceLab Apps - just released for AC
Bro how did you get those live standings on the left of the screen
what is the f1 leaderboard app that you use?
Played few of VCR and Clio Cup - it's way better than iRacing and soo much cheaper. Actually raced most of the roster from your race. The only cons are few dirty players (RacingMad with blue flag causing collisions to other ppl, DD not understanding that other cars are not ghosts etc.), but it's because they are probably new to LFM and online racing. Or simply dirty :D
Begs the question….if you are so great, why are you in my split?
@@richardsracingmad Not sure what rating has to do with racecraft but ok. Anyway - everyone makes mistakes and it's important that we learn from it. No need to be defensive here, simple "sorry will get better" is enough
@@MiPDarnok you call me a dirty player….thats rude.
I have a right to be on the defensive.
How about you improve you driving, and then you will start in a higher Split? 😂
@@richardsracingmad I said that you are either dirty or a newcomer that doesn't know the rules. The fact that you don't understand what a blue flag is (or even how splits are made) completely proves the latter. I shouldn't put you in the same spot as DD guy who made a mistake and started to block faster cars. Sorry for being a little bit salty - though that "blue flag divebombing a guy on the final corner" chad like you could handle some critique ;). Technically I could report you for that + brake checking me (I do have replays saved), but I think those are just ill-managed emotions + lack of experience. I'm not gonna drag this argue, especially under the video of a creator that I very like and I see you do as well. But I keep my advice to you (in all honesty and without wrong intentions) - learn how to say "sorry" (or at least don't get so defensive if you feel a guy might be right), keep your emotions in check (especially during the race- sometimes you will make a mistake and lose a lap, sometimes it will be mistake of another driver), learn the rules (no, you don't have the right to defend under the blue flag, read LFM code of conduct which you state that you've read every time before you sign up to race) and all will be good :) cheers!
Dirty driving. He totally ran that guy off the track giving him no other option than to go into the grass. WTF. A despicable dive bomb. 🤔😡
Ahh yikes, he started the dive after he turned in. His front bumper wasn’t even past the other guys front tires. Should have given the place back or been penalized. That was a massive dive bomb. Exciting to watch since it was bumper cars. I bet if you watched all the onboards this would have been happening everywhere all the time. But I’m not knocking really. I’m not a pro, made mistakes in my racing. This entire video so far up to 8mins reminds me of iracing rookie mx5 class my first few races.
Do I need H-Pattern Shifter for this cars to be fast?
I don’t have one, but then again…I wasn’t that quick 😅
@@Ben_LaBroca ok so its driveable and fun also without, that sounds great☺️
@@fatih_a yes 100%. And you don’t need to blip the throttle on downshifts either
@@fatih_a You don't. In fact (sadly) it's not like iracing - using shifter doesn't make you faster. But If you want 100% realism, you should use seq shift here, not an H pattern :)
@@MiPDarnok Nah, its ok like it is.. ;-) Sometimes iRacing is too realistic for me 😀I am also an average driver, shifter wouldn't be a big advantage for me if it was faster also in AC.
Hey man whats the car? Please
Hey buddy - it’s the VRC tourers pack. They’re paid for mods that you can find on the Virtual Racing Cars website. www.virtual-racing-cars.com/assetto-corsa/
🤣🤣🤣🤣 WSS?
