Interesting article with formula renault 2.0 driver severin austerschmidt

G27 pedal modding! Hm, yeah thats a good and "nothing to lose" option. I havent thought about it till now.
Thank you, I will try it out. That will help till I have choosen new ones.

Edit:
Found this: Load Cell (force sensitive) Brake upgrade for the G27
http://www.ricmotech.com/Load_Cell_Upgrade_Kit_for_Logitech_G25_G27_Pedals_p/rmt-lc27.htm

 

Well, you started the crap talk. hahahaha. If the car is slowing down he is obviously using brakes amongst other things, in that video. I fixed my youtube link page for you.

 

I have that, best upgrade ever, easy to install and transforms the G27 brakes into something you can use to reliably threshold brake with!

A little warning though, youl'd better have the pedal stand and seat bolted down good since it takes a lot of force to max brake with that mod, 32kg I think!

 

And where was my crap exactly?
You mean he is using the TC?
I'll check it out later.
As a side note I think in all instances he is applying throttle after the brake phase or during acceleration. That's why I used the therm throttle blipping.

 

Thank you. Both are mounted well already. I'll giv the Load Cell a try since $129.95 (€115.72) is a fair price for the whole kit.

 

Definition of throttle blipping follows : "On each of the downshifts you apply roughly 65% of throttle for short instance of time to stabilize the revs and prevent the rear wheels from locking as in abrupt downshift. Obviously not necessary to mention this is all happening during BRAKING." This is not open to interpretation. Please stop trolling. Or I'll have no choice but to troll you as well, as if how do you even race with such low understanding of very basics of vehicle dynamics.

 

You're getting even colder.

I know what blipping is, I'm a right foot braker and I heel and toe if I need to. What I'm talking about is a technique that comes from the GPL days, aliens started using extremely oversteery setups and to keep them stable on corner entry they would keep some throttle while in gear to keep the car stable while braking. That technique isn't doable in real life because you would murder the brakes in a matter of a few laps.

Again, I'm not talking about blipping. That's entirely different and perfectly fine.

 

Ok. Good to clear that out. Some people used to do that in LFS too. As to degree of turning into corners with opposite lock! I always found that unrealistic, unless karting. I never got into doing that except as in instance of simply overdoing the corner entry, which can happen in real life too. Haven't seen it either be possible to do on constant basis in AC, nor necessary to be fast.

 

So what people do is still apply throttle under braking so they could turn the car more? (not talking about heel-toe/blipping to shift down)

 

Not exactly. In theory it allows a super aggressive setup and corner entry, since you can stabilise the car yourself. It's less and less used as sims improve. Used to be big on iRacing years ago, not so much now.

 

Used to be the only way to complete a lap at any speed in the iracing skippy was to use throttle/brake at same time...think it is fixed now

 

Come to think of it. Iirc some guys did use this infamous technique in assetto corsas McLaren gt3 to run super low wing oversteery setup.

 

Okey but bare with me for a second. Maybe you misunderstood me. By blipping the throttle, in that case, I mean when you are not applying full throttle when exiting a corner. As you can see, he is applying some throttle then no throttle, then throttle again. And that is when he is already in the apex phase of the corner where you are not decelerating but accelerating.

 

I have a question about throttle/brake at the same time... How much throttle and brake are applied when people do that to rotate cars in sims?
I mean I remember in this https://world2talkabout.wordpress.com/2011/08/30/michael-schumacher-driving-analysis/ article that Michael Schumacher has some throttle even when he is hard on the brake.

 

That article has made me wondering ... why does other drivers don't do that then? There was telemetry back then. Or because it's this guy that makes this techniques special.

Well I guess that is not that true in games - no tyre wear and such.

 

overlapping throttle and brake in real life s a waste of both energie's, its not applicable in the real world but...do you think that's air your breathing...interesting. .

 

No, I mean, did Michael Schumacher do it all wrong? Should he actually lift off from the throttle entirely rather than having some pressure on the pedal all the time?

 

Yes.

It's one or the other, one shouldn't overlap both inputs, preferably. He probably wasn't doing it all the time though, maybe only on a hotlap.

 

Here for those who are interested but don't know exactly what it is about.

Heel and Toe downshifting @ 0:16
And you can see "left foot braking" (This is how I do braking too)

 

Except Heel and Toeing isn't what we're talking about, that's what was wrongly assumed.

Seriously people, reeeeeead !
