Lotus Elise Club Cup - Saturday Racing - Race 2 Feb 18th - SIGN UP NOW

I'm having difficulties braking with my right foot, but if I had a clutch pedal it wouldn't be a problem.

 

[Phouchg]

all this heel and toe ****nizt you hear of sounds hard so i don't know if i'd manage racing with a clutch

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

It's not that hard, you just flick the throttle with the outside of your foot, you don't actually have to use your heel- but in GT5 it isn't really that necessary.


Anywho- anyone up for practice at 4pm GMT?

I'm wondering what word ends with "nizt"? Hmmm!!!

It's not too hard in GT5, but in iRacing where it is basically necessary to keep the car under control, it's very hard.

We're kind of wandering off topic here guys.

Yep, but that's because GT5 doesn't simulate the lurch when you (down)shift.

I'll see you there- might be more like 10 past 4.

Having said that, the Lotus Elise in stock form is the only car I have seen any need to Heel & Toe in.

[Phouchg]

took some time for me to put up my wheel and all that so now i'm starting the game. ^^

 

[Matty]

Go you

I'm only joking of course.

 

[DaxCobra]

Would practise but I dont know if I can move the wheel.

 

[Phouchg]

At least i managed a 1:04.7 today.. had some problems with my wheel stand and realised i had put it together a bit wrong now it's fixed and i'm ready for tomorrow

 

[DaxCobra]

Ordered the bits for my connection, should have a flawless connection by next weekend..

Also, Virgin are supposed to be doubling our speeds so I will have a 20mb/s Download.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Managed a 1'04.362 and couldn't match it for the rest of the session as I couldn't concentrate- too tired.

Took a break and tried again and got 1'04.437.

Probably a few tenths to come out though. 👍


Tire wear is really bad here.

Tire wear is really bad here.

[DaxCobra]

No way.
