I am good drivers and i am still 10 sec behind leaders

I've been playing driving sim for quite some time and I can't believe how fast some of the drivers are on RSRLive. I was doing hotlaps with the default car setup but I shouldn't be 10 sec behind the fastest time. That's just insane. Specially on a track like Mugello which I know by heart and push the car to its limit.

Should a car setup allows for such difference between a excellent and great drivers? If we are all driving the same car, a setup should give you a second or two difference not 10. I also notice that most time on the top of the leaderboard are using automatic blip and cut.

I would love to have AC allows to download car setup and ghost from other drivers. I can see where I can improved and also learn what type of setup would work better. I know I should be tinkering with my setup but it's the part I don't like about racing sims. I have no idea what I am doing on that aspect.

 

Cheaters...

 

I seem to be on average 5 seconds slower than the best times, in some I'm 2 seconds, in others 8 but I can get under 10 seconds for most times. I'm not good with setups so I usually download someone else but it's only going to give me 2 or 3 seconds max. I went on youtube and watched videos of guys that are faster than me for tips.

 

I'd write off outlier times that are way quicker than anyone else, but mostly I don't think people are cheating.

Some of the quicker times are by people that are very quick on iRacing and other sims, do you think they're cheating????

If you're really interested then download this, it's any eye opener.

10 seconds to a guy that is used to a track and good driver in other sims??? Give me a break...

Also, as you can see in the link below i'm one of the best drivers in Race2Play, not the best one of course, but a good driver, and sometimes i'm 6 seconds off the pace to some times in RSR, if you think that is acceptable and those times were made using only the track in normal conditions then i've nothing more to talk with you...

 

I don't think they are cheaters either. I know some really fast drivers too but I am usually not that far behind. They must have one hell of a setup and cutting corner where there is no penalty to get those times.

 

Exactly... so CHEATERS right?

 

They probably just have more practice time. I think the people with the top times probably do nothing but practice.

 

Even if they do, which i accept, there are things that if you understand a bit how racing works are absolutely impossible to happen...

 

I'm very slow

Even so I can get down to around 105% of WR with only a bit of effort. I can feel there's way more time in the cars mostly, my consistency is poor and I need more practice time to find the best lines for my chosen cars. I don't feel a top 10 time is unobtainable, it'd just require way more practice and a bit more setup know how.

 

Your RSR account and an example video would be nice

It hard to record with a triple screen setup. i'll see what I can do. Fogboundturtle is my RSRLive account name.

This could be the problem you are experiencing, it's a very serious hole in the anti-cheat code.

 

So how much faster than you does somebody have to be before they are cheating?

So all 700+ people that are faster than him in the formula abarth at vallelunga are cheating....

I am not that fast and I am 8 seconds a lap faster in that combo than the OP....Am I cheating?

 

So you had to pick a track where I only did 10 laps overall to tell me I am slow ? I never used the word cheating. I am sure some drivers are really fast. So please get off your high horse for a second. I was talking about Mugello. I know I can gain maybe an second or 2 with the default setup. That's still 8 second to gain. Its a lot for just a car setup.

 

@Michael - I was never pointing any fingers, or saying everyone and their granny is using this exploit. This thread just made me think of that, so I thought I'd share, in case the OP didn't know about it.
Sorry that you seem to have taken it as me saying this exploit is definitely 100% the issue and everyone faster than OP is a dirty cheater.
*small grammar edit*

 

Did you try this "exploit" on RSR?? Or are you just guessing it works??

 

Wow, do people even read before they respond anymore?

I am friends with an alien, he can outrun me in the GT3 car by over 6 seconds at pretty much any track using the default set.....he is generally a couple seconds a lap faster with an all out 'go fast for a couple laps set' than with default...I run the same speed using his set or default because I am just not that fast.

@Fogboundturtle no part of my post was quoted or actually directed at you...so about that high horse....

 

hey don't worry, after a few thousand hours of practice I'm sure you will only be 5 seconds off the pace, my advice is ignore fastest lap times and just enjoy your racing.

 

If all the fastest guys are cheaters I have to be the most talented and fastest driver on the whole universe. Sarcasm filter off.

My first laps on any combo is usually about 6 seconds off the pace. I end up being 1-2 seconds from WR if I practice that combo and do some setup work. AC is kind of unique sim. When you first time though you were fast, with some more practice you can see how easily you shaved atleast 3 seconds and still you know there are places where you can be faster.

There are people around who think others are automatically cheating if they're faster. But hey, that's their problem. If it makes them feel better, that's great.
