    Whooo! Nordschleife. Good call, teaching it on PCars 2. It's the one I learned on. It allows you to break it down into 3 sectors and drill each one separately - putting it all together only when you're ready.

    • @RubberStig
      @RubberStig 4 года назад +1

      PC2 is certainly the version I have spent the most time on in the Ferrari 488 GT3 car. I can't honestly remember which version I learnt it on, but most of the time when I would jump into PC2 or AC, no matter what I had in mind to do before getting started, I would invariably end up on Nords in the Ferrari 488 GT3, pushing the limits .. well .. pushing my limits anyway. So satisfying.

    Back in October I had no idea how to drive this track, now I'm sending it in the fog. It's so rewarding to learn, just don't give up and don't do half the track, do the FULL track, even if you crash like crazy.

    64-67 I raced formula Vee's, juniors, and 175cc.- 250cc. motorcycles at the ring - 800+ laps. Now I sim -it. 3000+ laps on all titles. SO MY advice is 85% of the curbs are a no-no. Learn the bumps- use them to set the car. There are bumps to Avoid too. Laps + time. Drive it like a Grossmutter.(slow) feel the track/ chassis. Try 1 section on a challenge in pc3 in the snow to beat a bogie time. Book a flight and pay for laps with S. Schmidt.

    Great video. The three sections can be tackled individually in project cars 2 and I found that it is much easier to remember each third by doing each one 10 times, then moving onto the next third.

    Learning the layout is one thing, learning the braking points and acceleration points are quite another, however, understanding why those points sit there (instead of where most would intuitively think they sit) is yet another thing. The rest then, is to train oneself to have the skills to deal with the track.

    I first learned the Nordschleife in Forza Motorsport using a Panoz LMP-1 and the point to point races. The track was divided into 4 sections, and I ran each until I knew it like the back of my hand.
    Forza 1 - 4 had an very inaccurate version of the track, so at most I had a rough idea of how other sims handled the Nordschleife. When FM5 introduced the scanned version, I was pretty familiar with the in's and out's so, I didnt feel I needed practice.
    Fast forward to 2018 and after I built my first PC... Assetto Corsa's Nordschleife humbled the mess out of me. I had to re-learn the track again. But the car I used in FM1 was nowhere to be found (back in 2018). So I picked various cars and learned each.
    I think I made every mistake Simracing604 said to avoid. I was attacking curbs, at 11/10ths at all times, and constantly trying to beat my best laps. Also if I had so much as an off, I restarted. After all that, all I learned is that, the frustration is real. LOL

    Interesting to watch. Done a lot of laps over the years. Racing it often still leads to crashes (think pushing too hard) I Like slower cars better for racing on the Nordsleife. Gt4 or the super tourers in rfcator (fwd but a joy to drive) . My personal record still stands in Gt 5 or 6. Never reached it again.

    Nice video! Got my accuforce V2 in and had a little time to mess around in Assetto Corsa Competizione with the cloud profile and holy shit does it feel awesome. As soon as the car loaded up on the pit, the engine started, and I felt it through the wheel I was blown away. I was turning the wheel back and forth and it felt like actual rubber tires scrubbing the asphalt. This thing makes the clubsport V2 I came from feel like a joke really! I was getting familiar with the different settings while I waited on it to arrive but the cloud setup was perfect and only one click. All I had to do was lower the strength in game a little.

  • @decnet100
    @decnet100 4 месяца назад

    What I always wished for is for a sim to do little "Gran Turismo-license"-style timed sections to repeat and learn over and over. Am sort of at the level where I can actually complete several laps without incident if I force myself to go at 7/10 pace, after two weeks (maybe 20h) of training in rfactor2 - so far, still a couple seconds off my target time, and probably having caused 10+ virtual deaths and tens to hundreds of millions in crash damages in the process. :D
    On the other hand, perhaps our struggles as sim racers put the performance and abilities of the older actual drivers into perspective. Just an example, Mark Donohue had no experience with the Ring whatsoever before entering in the 1975 Grand Prix in his first Formula One season, never having driven there before in his career. Obviously, no way to practice back in those days other than actually driving, maybe a bit of onboard footage and a few german language "track guides" of dubious quality - so probably he knew in theory which direction the road went after each blind turn, but he certainly had nothing that could prepare him to get the bumps and compressions and kerbs right. He only first set foot on the track when arriving in Germany for the race and could only do a couple laps in his private Porsche before the race weekend - the car got stolen from the hotel carpark over night and was found completely demolished a few days after, so even this minimal crash-course training remained somewhat incomplete. During the race, he obviously didn't do exceptionally well, in fact he had a tire failure during the first lap - as did other entrants such as Jochen Maas, in his case the enormous compression through Fuchsröhre made the rims touch the ground and shred the rubber apart, which is probably - just guessing here - not quite what you want to experience when going 270kph through a section that had a runoff area of about half a car's width before impacting the wall (hey, at least not going straight into trees as they had until a couple years before).
    Donohue's qualifying lap though was a 7:11, 190km/h average speed; just 14 seconds and 6km/h average speed slower than Niki Lauda at the pole doing the drive of his life. I'd say most sim-racers would take about 100 laps in a similar car to beat that from the comfort of their home, with no fear of death or injury, no possibility of mechanical problems in the back of their head.
    By the way, that 7:11 time would have earned him a P6 qualifying the next year - but Donohue died a couple races later from a head injury in an accident; famously Niki Lauda, himself a very experienced Ring driver, suffered his near-fatal burns during next year's Nürburgring Grand Prix, which lead to the Ring getting removed from the Formula calender.

    Will you do an expert guide on nordschleife next ? Honestly for beginners, just keep driving it until they consistently not crash even once. I did that in rFactor 2, then tried it in project cars 2, it's ridiculously easier lol, I'm searching for expert sim guide now but can't find any. Obviously typical tips already apply, look as far as you can, look towards apex and exits, trail brake, always mindful of weight transfer etc

BUT in order to get around the NS without crashing the car, you will need to learn the Porsche first ( no matter which type ). BEFORE you become fast on the NS ( or any other track ) you need tons of track knowledge. I suggest to start with a X-Bow or a GT4 car ( not Porsche ). Also any of the TCR & WTCR cars or the BMW M2 are great to learn the track.
