Please share this with every single driver on iRacing. No joking, this is valuable information that I guarantee would help solve countless incidents.

Morad you are the best Streamer/Pro Driver !!! Continue the good work .

I am currently on a path to racing for a career and I just went through the SCCA racing school to get my license and I think the biggest thing it taught me was awareness because of being in a Miata and there were cars that were built to go faster it made me learn how to be aware of my surroundings and I can definitely apply that to endurance racing and multi class racing in the future. and this video was a massive help as well.

Sound advice Daniel.
I haven't done any multi class races but the GT3 league I drive in has some very fast guys and I'm the slowest on track so it feels like a multi class race.
I sometimes pull off the racing line to let the faster guys have it even though I know I shouldn't but it's a bad habit I have.
I will try to just stick to my line in future and make them go round me unless I have a slowdown of course.
Loving the videos.

Very valuable video! What has helped me in SIM racing (my track car isnt done yet ;) ) is to also consider two other aspects. especially when running a prototype: Dont assume they see you coming, and try to understand the dynamics of the other class. I race both the GTs and the prototypes in usually the IMSA events on iracing. I find that GT cars just dont see you coming as your closure speeds are high.. as well they are in the heat of their own battle. Dont assume they see you coming. Also in especially when driving prototypes take time to understand that the behaviors of the other classes ae substantially different... corner speeds.. braking points etc. I have seen plenty of LMP2 and GTPs pile drive a GT3 in a corner because the braking points are quite different it seems. I actually prefer multiclass due to the variety of cars and the way people drive them. It feels like mulit-class racing is for a "thinking" driver, whereas single class racing.. especially sprints... ends up as a dog fight with alot of blood on the pavement. In fact the only time i've been on track with you in Iracing was in a mulitclass practice... you were in an LMP2 and I was in a GT3. But in the end... race what you like!

Thank you for this. I may do GT3 IMSA next season just because I know the racing is great from my last experience 👍

[cajht]

this was great, just confirmed my self thought, and hours of watching endurance and other forms of multiclass racing that the way i am doing it is right, the lift, cost and setting up the exit have given me many overtakes, and safed some fuel.
Now i have something to share when slower/faster cars just throws themselves into bad positions, or does some other "shenanigan's" aka deer in the headlight moves....

[simaddiction]

Your stint in the second race at COTA last weekend was a masterclass in every aspect of the things you talked about. Well done.

[SirWesleyG]

Well done Daniel this should be mandatory viewing all multiclass drivers as you said so many times the faster cars forget that the slower class are racing also so for me have come to the position that they will do the dumbest overtake 90% of the time in sim racing and that is sad

[merik]

I remember watching a similar video on this theme you did for the iRacing official channel, it was so really helpful, I’m definitely now sitting watching this one!

[nicholasmarshall]

I will drive in the Majors Le Mans this weekend, so this was very helpful.

[josephjones]

Appreciate all you do for us plebeians! Because of you, I started watching the Fanatec GT series!

[patriotqc]

This should be a mandatory video for everyone doing multiclass in Iracing

[bobdamski]

I hope this reaches a lot of drivers. I learned early on that holding the racing line is normally the best thing for the slower car to do. This doesn't seem to be something that many of the " high speed drivers" realize at all. Great video. Maybe since it's coming from a guy that races A REAL GT3 CAR, more sim racers will pay attention. Love your work on and off the REAL track.

[scottmeredith]

Should be mandatory viewing for multi class racing on iRacing. Fantastic content as always!

[emlbts]

I would like to see more videos from your sim races where you think you have encountered valuable multi-class race moments that further hit home the lessons described in this video. This way the community could continuously see various examples of good/bad behaviour and improve their race IQ.

[Terry_Crouch]

Got a multi-class league starting up next week. This video is required viewing for all involved 😅. "Communicate with your car, not voice chat" is what I've tried to tell guys, but this is so much more in-depth.

[TSXChef]

Great tips, thanks! Awesome seeing you at COTA past weekend, super cool. Enjoying your contents, cheers!

[scottcrawford]

Enjoyed the notion of cost into the corner for each class.
I could definitely see you setting up cars for exiting the chicane when I was at Sonoma and we’ll executed too!

[Raptor-N-L]

Nice video, helps me for lemans 144min in a gte with lmdh on track. Thank you.
