    Something iRacing content creators often do at the end of a race is go through the replay and watch the incidents that happened. While this is typically done for entertainment, I'd recommend it for anyone because of the value it has in identifying different ways that accidents can occur and how they develop. This can be helpful both to learn how to avoid making the same mistakes yourself, and also to recognize what can lead to a crash so you can get better at "predicting the future" as described here.
    For those that don't know, all you have to do is rewind to the start of the race then hold the CTRL key and press 3 on the Numpad and it'll bring you to the next incident. Although it can be finicky at times, haha.
    Nothing you can do about luck though, that's just racing, especially at superspeedways. 😅

      I didn’t know that lol! I’ve asked a few times before and then someone would say it and I’d forget 5 minutes later

      @@DJYeeJay Just be ready for iRacing to show you every wall hit, every car with bad internet connection, and every time it just wanted to show you a car for no reason. It's far from perfect, lol.

    I love this kind of content. I had the same thing happen in an advanced legends race with the exact scenario. Every rookie needs to see this. Your channel brought me from d to a class and increased my iRating by 3000!

    Just in time for 87s at Dega. Remember to set your brake bias all the way to the back for maximum death!

    i love to do draft master races only because the big crashes that happen and even when i am involved in the wrecks i just laugh so hard at like 15 completely destroying each-other its so funny

    That last clip gave me second-hand fear, good lord
    Definitely a good summary of things to look for. Lots of things that can help, but yeah, sometimes you just end up praying.

    Had a old timer tell me once that if you see a wreck happening ahead of you just drive towards it. By the time you get there they will be gone

    I always tell my buddy the bottom is my friend especially at super speedway because I can go low or through the grass if needed especially the turns I dont like being high unless its the final laps

    I've won both the Daytona and Talladega 500s and can attest that there is no way to avoid the big one or little one or any one..
    You have to luck out and get a crew of drivers who have brains.. not easily done these days. I have laid back and been wrecked just the same as
    running in p1. If you are thinking there will be a wreck in front of you get to the low lane and be ready to stuff the car all the way down to the hot dog stand.
