Hi James, I was in this race (B.Fantozzi). Manage to save a P18 but even being some seconds slower it was a pleasure to be in the same split. Working to be fighting on top someday 😁
Started watching your channel when I didn't even have somewhere to play, nowadays I play ACC (on console though) but now I can watch, get entertained and also learn at the same time
He said in the stream he won't do lfm pro because everybody there is an esport driver and you can't jump in and drive you got to practice and that's why he doesn't do lfm pro
James, come back to ACC and LFM. It's great to see you on ACC again. I know the struggles all to much about stress of not doing your best. Get some rest, get back on track, and back in the sim we'll be waiting for you.
Glad to see you back on ACC, I don't know what it is but I really just don't enjoy watching the rennsport races, something doesn't feel right with the way the game looks.
Howdy from western America James!! New sim racer here, I’d love to get some races in with you sometime. I’m starting out with GT4 cars at the moment. I look forward to seeing more from your racing career.
How great did it feel to be back on ACC after so long on Renn Sport? You need to give the McLaren 720s Evo a go, that thing is insane if you can control it. I know being part of Merc probably makes that hard but still.
@@Jaaames Automobilsta 2 recently updated and added the newer GT3s including the Merc Evo and Macca Evo as well as LMdH and Le Mans. I'd recommend that as well for something different. They're DLC though so you have to buy the ability to use all that stuff but still I've been enjoying it and I play on controller.
Hi James I love all your content and I keep coming back. I think I have raced with you but it was a long time ago I never see you on IRacing 😂 how do you improve on that when there’s so many stupid people? Just wanting to progress and get to where I want to be. I keep trying and I do really well I’m not the fastest because I’m not using any setups and I don’t know every single track but I do race cleanly with other drivers but it doesn’t always plan out that way
Any tips for new Sim racers all? I absolutely love it, my T300RS doing me justice. But I can't nail a clean brake and turn to save my life... always either too early, or too late
Hi James (or anyone else fast), do you have some advice for driving the AMG? I want it to be my main car but it's so stubborn, I have to set it up in a way where I'm able to keep it under control on throttle, but that results in heaps of understeer on entry and mid corner. I haven't been able to figure out a driving technique and/or setup where I can keep it under control on throttle but also be able to rotate mid corner.
Shame about only streaming on Twitch as I don't use/like that platform and will miss your content. Bah! Any chance to dual-stream on YT or re-upload here also?
Out of curiosity, how come you're not a fan of Twitch? Streaming to both platforms is possible if the interest is there. I will re-upload highlights from the best streams on here for sure.
Hi James I love the game but fed up of people catching and passing me easily I'm a good driver but am in some races 5sec of the pace and can only manage a couple of tenths of my time.i don't know where I'm going wrong and no one will help.any ideas pal
Hi James, Wondered if you have any view setting updates I have fov 48 as I run a single 32inch screen approx 65cm distance, using your position of -14.8 and height of 4.2 with pitch of 1 on your latest video i notice cannot see much on the on screen wheel so wondered if you have changed if so would you mind sharing I must say since I have a decent fov and your settings I have shaved 3 seconds of my laps times so thanks in advance
Hey james . I'm thinking of getting into Acc . I have one question do I require a cltuch for shifting gears or no . Is it required for launch or no . Pls help . Love your racing btw.
There's another real GT3 race car driver that states ACC is not a sim. He drove his real life car in the game and said it not the same. Dose the GT3 car you used to drive feel the same for you as in ACC ?
Yeah that guy who's last name rhymes with "Bad" is notorious for having a bias opinion due to conflict of interest. But there isn't really any point arguing over which sim is more "realistic" because an opinion like that is so subjective and meaningless to the average consumer that will never drive a GT3 car irl.
I honestly feel the cheating allegations along with some faults like ACC tuning exploits have driven some players and sponsors away! The entire concept of sim racing is to simulate a racing experience! In all reality it should be equally as difficult to put up IRL laptimes in Sim racing! Instead the tuning exploits or what ever you want to call them take away from the authenticity of some of these events! If I was a sponsor and dumping in tens of thousands of dollars or even hundreds of thousands into putting on events, I want to see different cars and drivers winning on different tracks! I along with many lost some interest in ACC when many cars became obsolete and tuning meant spins ridiculous things that shouldn't work! Add in the cheating allegations on Iracing and F1 and struggling to detect or prevent it makes for a very poor representation of what sportsmanship should be! I've personally completed in several games and sports. Everything from soccer, to golf to Billiards, and of course sim racing and in the past Madden (2003) While winning is always the goal and it feels great to win, winning at all cost by taking advantage of exploits DOES NOT make something look good! It's the same as Baseball players using Corked bats, Boxers using illegal hand wrap materials that turn hard as a rock as they get wet, Golfers using special wax and polishes to reduce spin with their drivers to carry the ball further and hit it straighter! When it gets to the point where the competitors say "Well everyone does it" you're on the down slide and have to fight to regain the respect of those who sponsor such events! It also doesn't help when you have events being sponsored by known human rights violaters! While making money is great, it's not the end all to be all! There's something to be said about Sportsmanship! Which is something lacking at every level of sim racing, we especially saw it with some of the Rennsport events! Sim racing has the potential to be AMAZING but it takes the entire community as whole! There must be major consequences for poor sportsmanship! Just because it's a video game and no one can get killed, doesn't mean someone won't suffer a major injury to their hands or wrist one day! Some of these wheels can apply more than enough force to tear ligaments and tendons! I hope the game manufacturers and those putting on and participating in these events take the next step! It's a shame when LFM has to be the one to make vehicles competitive again like on ACC.
@@Jaaames thanks. Was wondering how can someone be so good at this game. Been sim racing for over a year (almost daily) and I'm nowhere close to being good.
Hi James, I was in this race (B.Fantozzi). Manage to save a P18 but even being some seconds slower it was a pleasure to be in the same split. Working to be fighting on top someday 😁
Brother, this is an awesome approach. Keep up the good work, cheers mate!
Good job dude, keep at it!
You’ll improve in no time at all. Every tenth is an improvement.
Started watching your channel when I didn't even have somewhere to play, nowadays I play ACC (on console though) but now I can watch, get entertained and also learn at the same time
Thanks for watching bro🤝
wish you would start in the LFM pro series or VEM endu series on ACC. The field is strong, with you it would be off the charts.
He said in the stream he won't do lfm pro because everybody there is an esport driver and you can't jump in and drive you got to practice and that's why he doesn't do lfm pro
LFM Pro Series I'll definitely start doing soon, will probably start this week. VEM I missed the qualification stages, hopefully next time🙂
Love your content James! Can’t wait to see what this year holds for ya
🤝
The title should be "Starting 2024 off with the best Sim"
hahah hilarious joke
AC > ACC
@@CoolockIRA exactly, more precisely AC>IRACING>RF2>AMS2>GT7 AND ALL THE WAY BACK HERE > IS ACC
You're not wrong mate
@@nflyau3301 GT7??? LMAOOOOO
Loved this video James! These are my favs. Always a pleasure to watch you drive. P.S.: the save at ~ 13:00 was insane!
Glad you enjoyed man🤝
James, come back to ACC and LFM. It's great to see you on ACC again. I know the struggles all to much about stress of not doing your best. Get some rest, get back on track, and back in the sim we'll be waiting for you.

I never watch people race but this race was so engaging, OMG. Those 20 Minutes just flew by. I might have to become a regular on the channel.
You should drive for the LFM Pro series, the level is insane!
he doesnt have enough elo for split 1 so he probable wont drive this season
This season👀
@@Jaaames season 14 pro series champion??! 👀
Have a great year champ!
Thanks mate! You too.
that save 13:36 !!
🤝
ACC and iracing seem the best for esports only time i knew about other esports when you did rennsport kia ora and kia kaha brother
Glad to see you back on ACC, I don't know what it is but I really just don't enjoy watching the rennsport races, something doesn't feel right with the way the game looks.
Glad to be back on ACC!
I know right? It's mainly the FOV. They locked some settings for the competition and however the drivers compensated made the game look horrible.
1 TC in the wet on slicks...yeah this game needs some rework
15:34
you got a PM on steam...
My god, Murphy and JB is the ultimate dopamine hit 😂🙌
🤣
That was just an epic nail biter of a battle! What a sim ACC is. You guys on comms really added so much realism to the race.
Loved the content James but it’s okay to laugh sometimes bro😂
Hate to beat a dead horse but LFM for ACC is the next step for the community moving forward, would love to see you in the splits. Great video m8 👍
Maaaaan you finally uploaded yeeey. Couldn't wait for a new video
Thank you for your patience🤣
Howdy from western America James!! New sim racer here, I’d love to get some races in with you sometime. I’m starting out with GT4 cars at the moment. I look forward to seeing more from your racing career.
Are raceroom doing the road to DTM series again. Lohner and Heineman have gone from sim to real race seats via that route in recent years.
I believe so yes, looks like it's just a cash prize pool this time around tho, no real world drive.

It feels great to be back on ACC & other games. I definitely need to try that thing as I did so many laps in the old Macca.

any interest in lfm pro series?
Most definitely, soon👀
Alright Jaaames is back!!! Let's Gooo
I thought those steam notifications were me lol

"What was that noise...its like my pc is fucking haunted" dude someone followed like right before but there was a second one without a notifcation lol
15:30 the FOLLOW comes in but theres only one on screen
Mate I was tripping out big time haha
lmao the noise was a Steam message
What's that tune in the background? Sounds sick!
Mr Ethan Dean is the man to ask
At last! graphics look good 👌
Glad you noticed, no more floating cars😂
do you ever share set ups?
im running the merc too and would love to see how you set it up
More of this James! ❤

is that the same driver that financially backed by iRacing who says that?
