My tip: drive like there's no tomorrow..Maybe you will crash sometimes

"When you're cornering, don't get back on the throttle until you're sure you won't have to lift off of it later."

(Paraphrasing, but IIRC, this is one tip Sir Jackie Stewart gave James "Captain Slow" May, when they were teaching May how to drive a car fast around a track)

Just don't forget that it's all about the grip so it makes sense that you always make contact with the ground and that you're tires need to be as generally optimal as possible.
You don't have to give a ♥♥♥♥ about turning, shifting, etc. as long as you keep that in mind.
Also, be patient. We all know speed is in braking and throtle-control...

Some philosophical ♥♥♥♥ I maybe shoudn't point out but I do it anyways, cuz I'm such a rebel:
- Get angry sometimes, not always. It makes you drive differently every time and try something obvious that you didn't think of, and if you think that it messed up you're driving behaviour it means it wasn't that great anyways.
- As always don't think you own the place. You might get shocked one day of how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ you actually are.
- Get in contact with people who are alike. (I can't explain to you why I don't).
- Don't hold back because you think you'll lose control. Losing control is a bless. You'll be full of yourself even more if you do some badass manouveres than being number one anywhere.
- Again, as always, look where you wan't to go. Not where you will be as you look where you are.
- Don't mind the cars. Mind their lines, so you know what to expect. Also, ironically not minding the car makes you bump less into it too.
- Try everything. Every class or category is unique and it definitly will teach you. I've always been into GT, didn't like anything with open cockpit and especially not roadcars. I spent time in different cars every couple of races though. Now, I can't really tell if I like the F40 more than my good old GT2, but what I can tell you: currently, I'm spending more time in anything else than my GT2. I still prefer it when I get serious though, but I don't know if the most intense moment's I spent racing is in that car. What I do know is that it makes me smile like a madman every time I "lose control" of my F40, because I never do. It's just playing with me... (I might also be a madman. Who am I to judge?)
- If you're a student with little money. Don't get frustrated because of what you don't have. Be happy with what you have already by just existing and maybe think of ways to work to something better. You're equipment might define something but not much, as at the root, you're still you and along come the skillsets you posses.

Personally I think some of what I read here is ♥♥♥♥, but I'm probably wrong as I don't like driving in a static seat as much as I used to. One day that seat will be part of something that moves though, or at least once...
I wish it didn't feel so lame anymore :(, but AC definitely is the best cure for me and is getting better every day. I'm happy everyone here has helped funding that.

Most basic tip of all learn how to stay on the track, brake in order to hit every apex missing 1 apex will cost up to 1 second braking 5m later and nailing it may gain .05 of a second. Consider which your more likely to do. You should be able to run consistant quick laps and in control needing to push that little more if you need some more pace and take a risk of possibly making an error. Everyone has different limits to what they can do easily but if you see the real quick guys they rarely are all over the place like the slower ones. Also most people slower then me brake much later then me, this is the main reason they are slower as they miss apexes and lose lots of speed into the next straight. Going a little faster for 5m into a corner is worth much less then going a few kmh faster for the next km into the next corner in some fast sections.

In qualy if you only have 1 lap to do it you need to nail the lap, giving up .1 under braking to ensure your close to the maximum is better then missing t1 blowing the lap or losing 1 second before the lap has started.

In a race learn to drive in traffic and how to drive around people as through them doesnt work. For me I can back off enough to pretty much nail the same lap time +- a few tenths if tyre wear, fuel load and grip levels arent changing. Even on a track like Nords I can pretty much stay within 1 second most laps and in races this is more important then putting in 1 quick lap and 5 crappy ones.

A single error can be the end of a race or a qualy lap so unless your hotlapping and have 100 attempts in perfect conditions to redo the lap until by sheer luck and probability you hit a perfect lap then no point trying to commit 100% to every corner.

Watch your delta time as this is key, a ghost I would never use as its distracting as hell and cant be used outside of a solo session anyway. Experiment with lines to see where you get a net gain to the next corner as the entire point is to be fastest around a lap not just 1 entry.

If you find you cant put a lap together back off a little, get in a time and a delta to work off for the next lap. Your first lap out in a new combo will never be the fastest lap you will ever do there, if you crash you learn very little. Stay on track and build up pace, some better drivers can tag onto another guy they know is quick and pick up the basics of a track quicker.

Some take longer to get to speed but some never get there as they constantly overdrive to the point they have little to no control.

1. Pay attention to your braking points.
2. Be smooth with the inputs.

To enjoy the road cars such as the P1, LaF, 458 Italia just turn the assists off and skid like Chris Harris :D

I'm sorry but 1 and 2 are totally wrong.

Brake as deep and late as your balls will allow you. In motorsports the only way to past your opponents is to out brake them (or run off trying). Considering that this is a video game where making mistakes doesn't involve you getting hurt or paying thousands of dollars for repair damage, abuse this fact.

Turning early means running wide or entering at sub optimal speed in order to avoid running wide. Every turn is different. Expirement. Pick 3 reference points every turn: brake point, turn/dive in point, apex (throttle!!!! all the way down!!!).

But there's really only one tip that everyone should be doing (and I guarantee you very few are doing unless they went to track school irl or took advanced courses): look through your turns. Use your perpherial vision to see the above 3 points, focus on where the exit is and stare at it. If it is beyond what the screen is displaying, stare at where you think the exit is.

Only way to pass someone is a dive bomb in your eyes lol, brake as late as you dare so loose heaps of exit speed and cause carnage. I doubt you do this in real life if thats your driving tips as it would be hard to be more wrong.

That is the last resort pass really and most passes are setup the corner before, If your passes mean your hitting the other cars your doing it very wrong. Maybe good racing the ai but they are so easy to beat that you dont even have to try hard to pass them. They generally have a weak area of every track and you can pick them off one by 1 there plus get the rest just about anywhere else at any track in any combo. Race good drivers in mp and your method would very rarely result in a clean pass but you also would be nowhere near the front of the field most likely ramming the backmarkers off the road.

Easiest pass is get a better exit out of previouse corner and you will make an easy pass into the next one or even down the straight after a small draft. The easiest people to pass would be those using your tips when in defense they brake as late as they dare miss the apex and leave enough room inside for a bus and a truck to get past. If they dont pass you into the apex as you run wide then they will simply run a normal line hit the apex and sail past you in the straight. If you dont understant how small the time gain is by on the limit braking vs missing an apex by a few centimeters then you clearly will struggle to set competitive times or pass anyone without hitting them.

Here are a few of my league reverse grid races which may show you how to actually pass people cleanly.

I hope to god people arent reading any of this and taking them as 'driving tips' cos il be honest, im not sure ive read so much c r a p in one place before.

brake early/brake late
turn early/turn late

you people need to think about those comments for a second...

the only driving tips anyone can honestly give without sitting in the car with them as they race is very simple...

brake exactly at the right time, turn in exactly at the right time and back on the throttle exactly at the right time and the only way to find those 'right times' is practice.

now can we please stop coming out such nonesense and really making the newer drivers struggle with c r a p advice.

Please explain how you brake at exactly the right time, you need to brake so you can make every apex. Dont miss a single one by braking too late unless your some sort of bot there is no way possible you can ever brake at exactly the right time. This means you need to leave some margin for error depending on your skill level. Braking too late is the biggest error you can make and will cost so much time whilst braking at exactly the optimum time at every corner vs 5m earlier is less gain at a track like Nordschleiffe then missing a single apex by 1m.

Your amazing advice of braking at the exact right time is just about the crappiest advice here so well done. Please explain how you know where this is and how you manage to do this every single lap.

I checked your laps on RSR, it doesnt look like your braking at exactly the right time anywhere by the gap to records. Surely if you were doing it exactly at the right time you would be the fastest in every car you run no?

If you cant do what your advice is how can you possibly not consider it crap. :)

I track motorcycles. If you care enough go get my video from the other thread and go to my YouTube channel. Hell, look at my picture.

There is an aggressive pass near the end of this involving out braking the two guys in front of me.

Also, I've taken around 40 hours of professional lesson, read 3 books on this, and have 2 (big) scars to show for my biggest mistakes.

Out of curiosity and no disrespect meant, but how much real life experience have you had?

Smooth and steady won't slam you into a wall.
Simply put just don't try to force the car to do more than what it can handle and try to under estimate it for the first few laps so the tyres can warm up.
