This Is The Closest You Can Get To Being An F1 Driver

This is the perfect send-off for Assetto Corsa. After ten years, new frontiers of simracing are still being broken, the game is still alive and kicking. It's amazing to see really. I deeply hope that AC2 will be as mod friendly as the original, if not more. But AC will never die.

1:30 I see 5 Mozas and half a Primark

3:08 ok but that attachment click is way too satisfying

How come I never catch the lives, but this is the 2nd time in a month I've seen a recorded episode less than a minute after release?

This is the RIGHT step for advancements in simracing. People tend to complain at the complexity that makes real racing almost feel 'secondary', but THIS is what simulated racing should be about! We need whole games that respect the realism whilst making it entertaining. Use such cars in entertaining career modes with good AI, turn these pieces of simulation art into a fun gameplay experience. This and accurate simulation can be connected together and I'm sick of people saying it can't ever be done. It absolutely can!

"i wouldnt... but benwood". priceless

I'm not really that into driving F1 cars (I got myself a 2022 RSS mod to do hotlaps sometimes and that's about enough for my needs), but the Flight Sim nerd in me likes the level of simulation of different systems in this. Would be crazy to see a LFM category with these cars.

watching this makes me appreciate how smooth f1 drivers are with the wheel. in fact, i think its a huge factor that people don't talk about as to why f1 "looks" slower now than it used to, i think its simply because of how damn smooth the drivers are with their steering inputs.

As a DCS fan i have to say that 25 pages is nothing

I can't get over the sponsor on the halo "I wouldn't... but Benwood" lol

Crazy how they even simulated THE PLANK below the car!

4:35 I think the plank is made of a composite sheet, it's not wood.

Got unreasonably annoyed that Jimmer refused to use 8th gear

What I love about sim racing so much is when you spend the first hour of your spare 2hrs mapping all your buttons, then you spend the next 1hr troubleshooting the flakey VR tracking or boundary issues, trying to use a keyboard with a headset on, start a race and realise your wheel FFB has reset so you have to go and sort that, reboot everything and then an addon is acting up, sort that out and you're out of time. Then the next time you try, all your wheel mappings have mysteriously but now predictably reset back to empty and your saved preset doesn't load, the wheel calibration has all reset, and then the VR acts up again. For the last 2 years I've spent more time sat down f****g about with mappings and wizards than actual driving, and all my gear is now in the loft in boxes as a result.

Jimmys live commentary has always been perfect.

This is what I hoped the iRacing W12/W13 would be...unfortunate that the best representation of a modern F1 car is an unofficial mod for AC

I would love to see live full length races with this car

This video is like a warm blanket. Jimmer being old school Jimmer.

the sound of the car is also just so much better than the f1 games, amazing work

4:27 C'mon, Jimmy. It hasn't been wood in decades (fuc* I'm old). It's made of Permaglass, mostly by a company out of the UK called Permali.
