OK, back to the Alps, WTG Racingworld! Hey Jack, any hints on how to beat this guy?
I first noticed this at Rome a few weeks ago bigtime, counter steer on exits even a tiny bit because you have to and you lose time.
Everyone thinks rally cars and countersteering is how you go fast I mean watch the AI drive in the replay mode they swing the ass big left big right big left but to swing it that much on exits you have to counter steer and for the most part, you actually have to countersteer on exits in this game you go slow not fast.
So how to keep a car under control if you cant counter steer? Easy reduce steering angle to at most nuetral. Just try to as much as possible not to counter steer and it works on tarmac on dirt it works with a wheel it works with a DS3, it works.
Dont get confused however that its neccesarily bad to counter steer a little on a corner entry and complex corners where an exit immediatly becomes an entry then the slight counter steer makes the entry easier to hit.
The whole turn out then turn in thing in a nutshell is I think counter steering. But I just think of it as steering for corner entries.
The laws is for exits and I even used this at HSR to come in 3rd overall when several D1s particapated with my wheel so I know its law man you can reduce steering angle as you nail the trhottle then turn in more I seen one of the fastest mofos in the world always do this move in seasonals but with high powered rear drive cars out of corners where its hard not to lose the rear.
To go quick it seems to all be about releasing steering angle and when and how much on the exit side. Then of course you have the entry rules.
One I think might be D1 law Im not sure but I feel it is now is brake earlier brke slighter get on the power harder. This ones real weird because when you actually do it(not just drive real slow) you dont even feel like your driving fast you feel like your driving slow because its so easy to do its not funny compared to braking late braking hard with ideal timing.
You will take so much speed thru mid corner but you wont feel it really it feels slow not fast because theres no sense of danger when you do it.(bridge corners the perfect example in T1)
It however messes with a guys mind bigtime it messes with mine bigtime it always has bigtime.
Why? becasue at first to go fast I have to drive fast but as I near the pinacle of as fast as posible to drive fast I have to feel Im driving slow!
I know this is mostly responsible for me not being able to run within 1 second of my OTs quite often and then magically destroy them. Either Im trying to drive fast being to agressive and go slow or Im trying to drive slow to drive fast and just drive slow. haha
Hope this helps you out a little maybe alot in the future. You could already know it and if you do then the answer is run alot of laps and never give up, its what racing world is doing.
