This is almost my exact same list although i would add 'Chris Haye' to your list. He and Barry are the gods in smooth and relaxed videos about Simracing.
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate how down-to-earth your channel is for someone just starting sim racing. A lot of the bigger channels are incredibly technical or sound like game show hosts.
All i can say is my thoughts exactly!! I'm just getting started but I'm already thousands of dollars in. Just found your channel and also a G9 owner. i am now a sub. I'm 55, black, thanks for being here......keep the videos coming!
@@GTGREG The G9 is incredible...the one i have has a July build date (N7)....no dead pixels and no other issues mentioned in other reviews. Only had it for a week but i will keep you posted.
Good to see you overcome your insecurities and give this RUclips thing a try. Only fools care about age, skin color or skill, we all share the same passion and everyone is allowed to enjoy it and share it. It's good to have discovered your channel, you have a really cool personality and come across as a No-bs guy which is refreshing in these times. I hope you keep doing videos, they are really entertaining.
Ya, I loved his video on the Simucube 2. I remember I was waiting on mine or had recently received mine when he shot that video and it made me super secure with my purchase.
That about turning 40, man I feel you That part about scared of being black and afraid being accepted, buddy ... I didn’t even notice untill you mentioned it :)
Bro the fact that your a Bronze sim racing man is going to make it more difficult for you to blow up due to peoples biases. But thats why we have to support one another. I subscribed. I'm going to support a Bronze sim racer all day. I'm going to start a channel too but I really don't have room. I use to fall asleep listening to Dave's videos
LOL! I googled bronze sim racer and was like, WTF, why cant i find out what this means! Ya man, understand that for sure but I'm cool with it. Most of the boundaries and constraints most bronze people experience I've found a way to work around to be perfectly honest. Although I agree with you , I find that the best way around those scenarios is to just be a good human being. In general I spend very little time thinking about what if, and more time thinking about what can. I hate to sound cheesy but it's just the way i look at shit. Thanks for the support and lemme know when you start your channel, ill return the support! I also watch these guys right before bed, no offense Dave! I wake up and some video of Jimmy from 5 years ago driving indycar is still playing! Respect!
Hi Greg ,im watching your video as we speak ,and i might not start a channel on acount of your video ,but i can say its so Fking inspiring i had to write this ,and seeing that most of your top 5 channels are mines aswell , well what i wanted to say is you guys inspire and you (Greg) specially ,i am a 65 y.o. retired man who loves cars (and astronomy ,by the way) anyways , i got my rig because of Barry , my pedals accessories and how to's because of Shaun, wheels and some other stuff by watching Boosted Media , ect anyways i wanted to say thank you for what you do ,you'd given hope to this old man ,
Yeah bro the driving need being satisfied is right here. Im so grateful for it. I didnt even know of sim racing just in the back of my mind i was like hmmmmmm. They have to have gotten advanced on those wheels and pedals i saw at the family reunion when i was a kid . Old playstation 2 need for speed crap. Then i learned of forza and thought it was the pinnacle of sim. Until i then found out. I was extremely mislead all that time. Now i stick to assetto on xbox and working toward pc. Sorry for spamming your comment section but lets just say thats how inviting thw wnergy was to this video!👌👌👌 keep it up brother
Hi Greg, just discovered your channel and I really like your honesty in your chat.Sim racing is such a small community compared to other hobbies we all need to support each other. If it's inspiration you are looking for check out Jardiers channel,He has a growing community and his channel is taking off this year he is very upbeat and enthusiastic and will remind you of the joy of racing and why we do it.(He's not paying me for the plug I just enjoy his vids) All the best in making your channel grow . liking and subscribing
Im starting my channel today when my next level seatcomes in. Im another brother in the sim world. Just on acc on console at the moment but ill holla atchu when i graduate cuz🤣👌👌👌🥩🥩🥩🔥🔥🔥🤜
LOL, hell yea, welcome man. nothing wrong with console my guy, i spent many many many nights doing laps on forza for hours! cant wait to see you progress!
Hi There, assetto Corsa (original). You can find the LA canyon package and the pacific coast high way there. I think if you use content manager, there is a better way but I just use the standard software and copy the folders manually 👍🏾 thanks alot!
Loving your channel. I’m just getting back into sim racing myself and building a rig now. You are probably already aware, but I tried joining your discord server but the link isn’t working.
@@GTGREG Yep, have a new P1-X that just got delivered. Wheelbase is supposed to ship in about 2 weeks. Need to order some pedals and I'll probably just go for the Fanatec shifter for now. I'm excited to get back into it. Used to have a Logitech MOMO wheel and pedals back in the day and drove a lot of TOCA back then!
@@GTGREG Oh no, I've had that happen with different things as well, not fun! Yeah the wait has been crazy, with everything but the P1-X. I'm going to go with just a cheap eBay wheel for now because all the wheel manufacturers seem to be sold out for the foreseeable future.
@@GTGREG ok. So Dave uses a A5100 and now a go pro i have an akaso 6 plus but im not sure how good it will be. I also have a Canon t5 or something but I cracked the screen on it. I'm looking to get a nice Sony tho soon. But the gear is so expensive. Just switched to sc2 pro from dd2. Haven't used it yet as my wheel is still not here yet
@@chrisjohnson261 A5100 is good, for sim racing, you dont need all that though. Your akaso 6 should be more than enough, i would grab a camlink 4k for $130 and be done with it. You will get great quality video. The only reason I have all this gear is because Im also into photography and cinematography so I have a son of equipment I can repurpose. In terms of video for streaming and capture, I really want simplification of just turning my computer on and hitting the record button. The rig itself has too much complication anyways. Hi my on facebook if u wanna chat about camera gear :)
Great video topic dude. I got my Pro Sim H Pattern and I’m loving it. Probably an unpopular opinion but I unsubbed the Simpit about a year ago. I just can’t stand the eSports “news” anymore. He really pushes the mentality that esports players are equal to real race car drivers or celebrities in general. At least that’s how it feels and sounds. I’ve even heard the words “These are the people you need to remember, these are the stars of our hobby” many times. No thanks man. Plus the reviews on that channel sound like regular old product placement most of the time. I only really watch channels that talk about hardware and software. I don’t have a desire to watch people race when I can race myself. I guess the only exception is Jimmy Broadbent. I’ve watched him for so long I’ll always support him. SRG R-VR Closet Boosted Jimmy Simracing604 I’ve been watching a lot of Laurence Dusoswa hardware reviews these days. He’s on the come up. Chris Haye makes some quality content too. Inside Sim Racing is what inspired me to get into sim racing. I watched them years before I bought my first wheel. Shaun and Darin where great together. So was John. I go back and watch the TWISR shows once in a awhile. They may be outdated but that’s how a weekly sim racing news show should be done. It’s was great.
Not sure if it's an unpopular opinion, definitely debatable. Product reviews were a bit sunshine and rainbowy which I thought was pretty evident😁. The podcast brought up some pretty cool topics to spark some good conversation. I'm a gear whore too and gravitate towards gear heavy pages. I agree with the watching other people race comment, usually after my senses come back to me after watch people race I think, fk this... I'm gonna race myself. I do find it quite therapeutic and relaxing to watch a good bit of other people racing however. Thanks for the recommendation, will certainly check a few of those gentlemen out. Great feedback and thank you👍🏾
@@GTGREG I second that. Although i highly recommend my remedy to that problem. Tripple monitors WITH TrackIR Head tracking software. Its like VR but with gorgeous monitors displaying a proper picture and frame rate. If you'd like i can send you a video of how it looks and works.
I would love to take a look, I saw one pop up for sale today and was interested. I find myself missing my triple 32s when battling close. Ill go back to trips once the bezels are gone and Nvidia surround unsucks. For now, performance is king and the Ultrawide is ticking that box nicely for me. I'm highly interested in how the 3080 runs triple setups, that may make me go back to trips sooner than later.
@@GTGREG if by performance you mean the highest FPS while sacrifycing visual quality then yes im all for it which is why i use tripple 24s and stick to 1080p to get the highest frames possible. And what is this talk about nvidia souround not working? And ill send you a video.
I stopped watching Jimmy Broadbent because I noticed something that I perceived to be a ws hand sign so I said better safe than sorry I can't support that.
Thanks a lot for the mention and kind words mate. All the best with your channel :)
Thanks Will! 😁
Great list my man! And thanks for the shout out
Thanks man, great channel and perspective. Cheers!
This is almost my exact same list although i would add 'Chris Haye' to your list. He and Barry are the gods in smooth and relaxed videos about Simracing.

@@Namnrub3 I also had a good experience with it super crisp. I need a 3080 to really unleash this thing though. Stay in touch my friend 👍🏾
I watched boosted media this morning too. Totally made me film a video and keep putting up content. Tomorrow look out for a video on my HE sprints!
Will (boosted media) is a nice mix of no nonsense information and great passion. Love his channel.
I just found your channel, and your rig is one to be envied man...awesome job, and that curved monitor is "WOW"..keep it up.
