My reaction was the same as yours Dave. Sometimes you're just amazed at the luck you get racing...but then again quite often we are just as amazed at the bad luck too. It's racing. Great video!
mine too hasuhaushasuhaushaush
If that had happened to me I would have had to brake to avoid the carnage and then got overtaken just before the line.
I do like my Vee and Vee at Summit is great. But this magnificent beast... this magnificent beast is just built better. Best car in the service by far right now. So much fun to drive.
Great race and great win!
100% agree. It's amazing 😁
That Damien was asking for the collision the whole way. So many little mistakes clearly flies by the seat of his pants and it came back to haunt him ... Unfortunate for Oier, i'd be raging.
I did the same race last night. Not going the same lap times as you for sure. I qualified on pole with a low 1:18. I led the entire race just to get spun by a back marker re-entry on the last lap. Absolute bummer, but finished second still. This is a fun car-track combo!
I fully agree with you on this, the Ford Ray is an absolute dream to drive. A bit more tricky with colder tires but as they warm up the car is pretty tolerant in it's handling on the limit (and beyond). I've had so much fun on Summit this week so far, gained almost 400 IR, 8 podiums and 3 wins. It's addictive!
Good stuff. I'll have to try this combo. Thanks for the content. I really like the TV camera view in the upper left. Thanks for that.
that last lap was absolutely nail biting! well done you did indeed EARN that win!
Ask and ye shall receive. What a race! A line from the movie Apollo 13... You never know what events are going to transpire to get you home.
Some of the best racing I've ever seen! Also seeing your pure joy was contagious. Love your videos, Dave!
I concur Dave. This little machine is what a racecar is all about.
The racing is fierce but fun.
I often wonder what would happen in iRacing if they made the decision to cap irating based on safety rating, 5.3k with B1.7 means 1 thing, he's a guy who is prepared to sacrifice safety rating in order to gain irating. From my perspective, if you have the pace to be above 2k, you should have enough car control to keep your safety rating in A class. If dropping below A class meant an immediate cap of say 2.5k, the quality of racing at that level could only improve.
These cars are surprisingly fun to drive and very controllable. Nice job on keeping your cool and the win.
To finish first, first you have to finish. Great drive Dave
Was a great race. (Ray Andrews is one of my alts) Ryan Chenoworth was sliding all over the track in front of me and I nearly had him a few times bit had to clear the throttle when he wiggled. He did that on the last lap too, and it was enough to put me out of touch when we crossed the line. I was laughing hard at the end though! Grats on the win.
Great racing 😁
Pentaptych - noun. a work of art consisting of five panels or sections.
Dave transitioning from his Blue Period into his Tickled Pink Phase.
Hi Dave, Damien was consistently messy through turn 2, he was hitting the gravel on the outside even when he had the inside line.
You taking the outside line against him was courageous but the odds were definitely stacked against you. Apart from that it was an excellent race bud :)
Why didn’t you show that mid race contact was NetCode? You could barely see it in the replay from the camera you chose but it looked like significant NetCode
Yes I'm sure netcode played a part. Not a big deal if it wasn't. It's always a risk going through there 2 wide 👍
Absolutely agree... formula ford is soo much fun, love the force feedback. My new favorite for sure!!
Perfectly timed comment😂
...I won a Nascar race like that🕺🏾
That was very lucky at the end, but you deserved it after being punted off earlier.
The FF1600 is a real fun car to drive and I like the way it squirms about all over the place.
Looking forward to the rest of the races.
Keep up the good work.
👍
Looked like it was a NetCode hit mid race
Pure racing! Love it 😊
That was a belter Dave 👍🏼. I’m going for that 1k today. 995 😣now, sooo close to average.
This race was fun to watch from Damien's perspective too. We were hoping you had fun in this Dave, and by the sound of it you did :D Sadly the contact from this race was netcode. A few tires's width of netcode actually, but giga save! Then something something karma as he put a wheel on the grass at the end. Unfortunate for Oier as he got caught by it, but he was a top bloke about it. Giga credits to him, most people would probably and rightfully be proper mad about it. Think he understood it was an accident.
Yes it was just unfortunate. Pushing towards the front on the last lap is always a recipe for carnage. Damien/Davids whinge after his last race was epic 😂
@@davecamyt Hah, you heard that one yeah? 😁 Always stirring the pot if he wants to or not 🤪 Would love to join you guys racing this thing hard, but it's just not for me. Struggle getting lower than high 16's with it. Still good fun though!
I agree the FF1600 is so much fun.
Gorgeous race! 👏
I can't believe the upcoming races can be EVEN BETTER! This was amazing 😂
I’ve been enjoying the Mazda on this track, the racing has been a lot closer and more exciting than last weeks track.
15:05 pure moses moment right there. Can't believe he would throw it all away with that move though.
Do people normally pass there?
I would say you could have a look but I doubt you could get around the outside. I wasn't complaining 🤣
Laughed out loud on the bus, thanks
Great race, who said gentlemen drivers don't win. True respect
My first win ever, and one of all two, its ray 1600 summit point :O this track is create for this car 😮
That final corner of final lap was hilarious 😂
Nice one, Dave, great race, deserved win too... 😜
1. How is my guy driving quicker with 1 hand than I do with 2 😂
2. That’s some Dave Cam luck 🍀 at the end of I’ve ever seen it 😂
Great racing!
Cheers Dan 😁
Damien, you little bandit you.
Heads up move lifting at 11:49 and not getting hung up on the outside.
Well that was unfortunate.....for Damien and that other guy. Not a shock. They were were hyper aggressive and Damien wasn't shy about shoving you off ...so hey, Karma paid you back and his back.
Lol that finish was awesome
This looks like such a fun car. Great racing all through the race.
Ah Dave, a fellow Authentic Racing Sim Enthusiast (A.R.S.E.) I see using the PROPER shifting technique. Have you considered moving your shifter inboard? Less of a reach. I have mine mounted inside on my TR160 and it falls close to the wheel with enough room for my legs comfortably.
It's a little too close to my knee if I mount it on the inside.
A.R.S.E love it 😂
Didn’t realize these where h pattern. I will have to try now. Love it
Holy sh**!
Great win well deserved Dave 💪💪
Glad you are enjoying the new FF1600 as much as I am, albeit I have a much more humble iRating. A question though, why have a grids dropped this week in the FF1600 Trophy at Snetterton? There have been a couple of races at least with grid sizes less than 10 with only a single split.
I think the summit point combo is just so much fun people are probably just racing that instead
@@davecamyt I think you are right. Snetterton in a FF1600 is not an easy combo to master and there is a high risk of spinning out most laps.
Great race Dave, tcan't say these cars are modelled very well. The car modelling looks decent quality but the tyres don't look to be moving and the cars are floating around on the road.
That could well be a shadow issue on my end. I'll look into it 👍
I love when that happens 😂👏
What a great track
The only thing I don't like about this car/series is when you're having this much fun the races are far to short.
Wow what a finish
Great win
What a race
This ford formula is the best
Check out Damian's safety rating. Clues were there. How low can he go?
You can't gain any sr in a 1600 race.
@@thargor6750 Not driving like that you can’t. He was wobbly the whole race. But is that actually true??
@@PaulDuggan you gain very little when your like a B or A class driver in a rookie series but you also loose a ton. I did a race last night on the Mazda combo and only got like 0.03 after only 1 off track incident and a p4 finish lol, but I lost like .13 for getting taken out the race after…
That was always going to happen with Damien.
What a epic battle!
So Dave, with everything it sounds like you're learning in/about the FF1600 (I paused before even watching the race part of this video to ask this), is there any chance of you maybe doing a video with some tips on how to drive this car quickly? I like a lot of aspects of it, but I find it really difficult to figure out how fast I can enter turns as it seems there's a really fine line between going in too slow and finding yourself looking at where you just came from. I know I could really use some input from an experienced driver like yourself on how to get to a reasonably competitive pace in this car and I wouldn't think I'm the only one having a bit of a hard time with it. For whatever reason I'm having a much harder time getting anywhere close to the limit on corner entry than almost any other car with the possible exception of the Formula Vee which I've never really taken a liking to for similar reasons so there may well be a theme to it. In the Vee, it's mainly the liftoff oversteer that gets me and the FF1600 seems somehow different, but it might boil down to the same basic problem. It's possible that I just need to put in a bunch more time in practice sessions to cause a eureka moment to occur, but if you think you might be able to help myself and others and that a video lijke that might be a decent performer for you making it worthwhile for you to bother with, I would sure appreciate any pointers and insights you could share. The ff1600 sure seems like a car I'd enjoy racing if I could get over the frustrating issue of what feels like I'm just putting my pinkie toe over the line and I go flying off the track. Now back to watching you have a great time with these beasties. Thanks, Dave!
Hey buddy, I'm still trying to figure it out myself but your ideas could well have legs 😁
@@davecamyt Awesome! I'll stay tuned to find out what develops, not that I wouldn't have done so anyway. Thanks for considering it, Dave!
I wonder always, if there really are trees without any protection nearby the track. Is deadly if you hit one in real life.
just wow.. it suddenly mended.
BOOOM!
We're destined for 3rd.
“Nothing we can do…” P1 and P2 have been deleted
When you max out your luck Stat in iracing 🤣
I think the lower classes are more fun. Not as fast but way more competitive and forgiving.
This might be a dumb question, but when you make another account, do you need to pay for all the tracks and cars again?
Yes you do 👍
If Damien didn't take the curb he wouldn't have bounced into ya.
A bit of netcode but without the curb we'd have been fine
Nice one. 🤟
Total shock right at the end there. What the hell happened with Damien? P2 not good enough so instead just take P1 out?
He hit the grass by mistake and lost the rear end.
@@mikelshwede man that took him for a ride, haha.
Hello. Do you use the clutch for upshifting ?
Sometimes I find it quicker to keep the throttle pinned and just dip the clutch. In cats with a dog box you just have to take the load of the transmission so a lift off the throttle would do the same thing without the clutch 👍
wow, karma!!!
What gearbox settings are you using here?
Anti stall clutch 👍
Are you heel toe downshifting in this car?
No just blipping as it's a dog box 👍
Bang on! This car is the best!
that dude was a maniac. awesome job keeping yourself in the race despite him.
Mind punt lol
Does the FF have a dog box?
Yes I believe it does 👍
What wheel rotation do you use for this car?
I always set my rotation to 900. Iracing automatically adjusts it depending on which car it is 👍
@@davecamyt aha good to know, i didn't know that. Thx 👍
Man that looked intentional to me.. dunno. I think he took you out too in that one incident. That sucks if he did that intentionally.
Nah mate, he streamed the race live, and apologized at the end of the race, He's not like that.
@@dazminator well that’s good. It looked intentional so explanation via proxy accepted 😆
What's his twitch name?
@@davecamyt mikhailshoemaker. you might not want to look. he was lifting on straights to keep you in the fight
Ah I didn't realise that's who it was. I think he lifted maybe once but I was still well within draft. I was off pace in this one for sure 😁
How are you shifting without lifting off accelerator? I swear i have to lift off to chanbe gears
I'm just dipping the clutch on the upshifts. You can see with the blue line on the telemetry. No clutch on the downshift, just blipping 👍
@@davecamyt oh so your keeping full throttle just tapping clutch. I was trying to look at telemetry but still didn't get it
Yes exactly that. 👍
@@davecamyt I think I just fixed a missive mistake is my set up. I had a fair bit of a dead zone in my break by mistake and the car just would not turn in on the corners with light breaking. I changed it and almost a second of my best times and the car actually does what it meant to now. I was getting so much understeer because of it
Not sure if you accept them but I added you on iRacing. Thomas jessop is my name there
So you make it harder for rookies to win.
😆
i am 1st then ....yes get in there
1st 😂
Disqualified from typing first when you're stood next to me when I publish 😁
@@davecamyt I'll happily claim second LOL
@@davecamyt No, she had the racing line.
@@davecamyt 🤔
2nd 😄
i cant tell right now three things why this car is not better than formula 2000... first is looks so bad, like a toy, second force feedback, wheel is terible low and third is so easy to drive it super fast. So if you know what are you saying here tell me three things what you think is better?
Not a big fan of iRacing, but damn, this is so much more fun than boring LFM GT3 Cars all day every day. This racing is SO much better, so much more fun.
Usually low powered cars produce the funnest races. Some of the best races i had were with f4s and formula vees
