Hey gang, Not sure if this is the right place for this post so please let me know and I'll move it.
I'm realitivly new to sim racing as I just started last fall. I finally got a rig an H-shifter and a nice set of CSL pedals. I race in VR only. I've been racing many different series on SRS for the last few weeks, sometimes 2 or 3 races a night. I've gone from 8,500 to 2,932 in the rankings . I'm usually in last place every race and make quite a few errors late in the race (feels like the brakes get soft and the tires lose grip). I've subscribed to every Youtube racing channel and watch tons of videos every day. The Driver61 series is amazing. Viperconcept is very helpful.
Been working really hard practicing the Brands GP- Sierra combo, getting all my breaking points down and my racing line correct and trying to just stay on the track, along with heel-toe downshifting ect.. After hours of practice I've gotten down to under 1:42.8. I was so sad when I realized I'm still about 5-10 seconds off everyone else. Seems like everyone else is just blowing by me and I'm hanging on for life. Any tips for making up 5-10 seconds? I just can't seem to wrap my head around where they are going to come from. 10 seconds is a lot. Thanks in advance for any help or tips, Jason
