You Don't Need To Know The Speed, Just The Gear #simracing #racinggames #racing #motorsport

Speed is unimportant to learning a track. What matters most is the gear you’re in, as it closely relates to the speed of the car and is much simpler to associate with your senses. #simracing #iracing #tutorial #guide #howto #lesson #motorsport #gt3 #porsche #porschecup #racecar #racinggames #gaming #pcgaming #racing #assettocorsa #granturismo #gt #gt7 #forza #f1

Tbh I just tend to listen to the engine sound and see what the acceleration is like to know what gear I’m in

Me: *plays F1 and already knows this while racing with an 8 gear + reverse car*

I drive more on feeling off the FFB, and the rest comes natrual.

Is it bad to sometimes use the speed as a reference to see if im braking too hard into the corner?

[Magoooster]

I'm new to sim racing but wouldn't it be better to know the entry speed and apex speed to know how much you need to decelerate/carry through the corner?

[smitesnipezyt]

Could the actual speedometer speed be useful for knowing when to shift up on a straight, even with the engine noise I always feel like I shift a little too early/late

[kitmilo]

I don’t agree. The only think that should give you the sense of speed if your forward vision, peripheral vision and the engine sound.
