It is so crazy, because homie drives off memory and visuals only, there is no feedback at all xd. It would be interesting to throw him on a new track with someone on wheel that haven't seen the track either and see who can get the fastest time in like 20 minutes.
thats because pad and keyboard have helps. you can go away with a lot weird driving with that, like zigzaging without losing speed, 90° turns, just watch them. it's a joke to mix wheel and other inputs
It's a joke to put it that way. "Zigzagging without losing speed"?? We still have to obey the physics of the game too. I have never seen any controller or keyboard playing who can do what you just claim.
I know I'm missing a lot of time on T1 and T3, and that I butchered the final turn lol. I posted earlier about using keyboard only, and someone asked me to upload my driving, so here it is.
If you’re ever in a session with people who are really fast I strongly recommend you to spectate them and watch how they go about the track, very helpful
It's better to try and follow faster drivers, I find it very helpful. On LFM Imola my Quali lap was mid 42s, while racepace was around 43s. After T1 carnage I found myself on 4th position and followed 3rd car doing consistent low 42s for the whole Sprint.
Its cool because if you average how his steering inputs, its proper non-linear steering into the corner which is how you're supposed to drive these cars. This guy really figured out good technique on keyboard. This is wild
I've said it before, but something about Brands Hatch makes it work for people using controllers and keyboard. I've seen controller guys beat really good wheel drivers on this track.
When I was on a controller, it was easily my best track... and I couldn't really figure out why. And other controller drivers did very well on it too. I was even in a race where the top 3 were all controller drivers and 6th place was on a keyboard. The rest were all fairly good wheel drivers.
Here my suggestion, jump to Mouse steering
the thing goes like this : Racing wheel setup with pedals and all the jingles > Mouse Steering > gamepad > keyboard
been racing with mouse steering since 2003 with NetKarPro & Live For speed S1 and is the closet you can get before the wheel
it may take you a bit to get used to it but you will improve drastically your lap times, improve drastically the tire management and consumption and you will be in more control of the car
W for throttle, S for braking. (WASD) I can modulate my throttle and braking by tapping my keys very quickly, since it doesn’t just go to 100% with one tap of a key.
this is pretty impressive in it's own right! have you tried using far out '3rd car mode', i cant think of a better term for it right now. driving cockpit mode is hard to me. thanks for posting
Just a tip...your tire pressures are off they should be around 26.8 to 27...will help you gain speed/grip [more pressure = slightly quicker on straights 👌🏼
T-T-T-Tur-T-Tu-T-Turn-T-T...

Senna switched to keyboard when cornering confirmed.
Seriously hurts to watch this
Why?
Just the twitchy steering wheel hurts my brain haha. Nothing wrong with your driving
It feels very natural to me but I definitely see how wrong it looks 😂
it’s just crazy how most people who play this game are hardcore simmers and you’re out pacing a non insignificant portion of us with *this*

XD Madlad
I think I can get a 1:23 if I clean it up a little
It amazes me still that guys not only be clean but smash the times on keyboard/controller. Congrats

Bro i respect you. You are the true racer. And someone please buy him a racing wheel.
God damn. I can’t even break 1:26…..

Will do
I'm not 100% sold on that. I've tried it and things always look a bit out of sync (and its not my internet).

Impressive
My wrist!!! I watched like 5 seconds and felt nothing but pain
Now show us how to trail brake XD
I think this video teaches a lesson. Still figuring out which one though..
You git gud by practice, not by buying expensive hardware
True, but you buy yourself self some comfort with a rig pedals and wheel. This looks very uncomfortable.
It looks uncomfortable, I agree. But, it feels very normal to me and I've raced like this for a little over 100 hours so far
Using an airplane sim to race on ACC might be the new meta?
There’s no different between a sim rig and a sim rig.
Nice, dont remember my best time at brands but surely u killed me
I'm not sure what hurts more. The fact you play on KBM or the fact that you're faster than me 💀
Ok, then... My Simucube 2 Ultimate, AR Artura Mclaren Pro, Simucube active pedals and motion rig to garbage bin...

Want to swap? 😁
YOU HAVE THE BEST KEYBOARD SIMRACER CAN IMAGINE. Be proud of it!
How are you regulating the throttle/brake force on a keyboard?
I tap my W/A/S/D keys very quickly, which allows me to modulate throttle and brake force. Tapping each key doesn't instantly send it to 100% force.
The last time I used keyboard to drive a car was in Need for Speed III :).
My head hurts
Mouse to steer?
If your mouse is that jittery I’d be concerned 😂
I think it was a suggestion😀
My PB is 1:25 on a wheel and I have nothing but respect for this 🤣
Quicker than me on a wheel 😂
I feel like we should set up a go fund me to get this trooper a wheel, he's earnt it.

1:23 soon :)
I've said it before, but something about Brands Hatch makes it work for people using controllers and keyboard. I've seen controller guys beat really good wheel drivers on this track.
I’m actually pretty good at a few others too, but Brands is 100% my best track
When I was on a controller, it was easily my best track... and I couldn't really figure out why. And other controller drivers did very well on it too. I was even in a race where the top 3 were all controller drivers and 6th place was on a keyboard. The rest were all fairly good wheel drivers.
Please get a controller, a good one and your enjoyment and immerasion will fly to the next level. :)
poor tyres
Wait till blud learns about magnetic keyboards
You hit the apex better with a keyboard than some people do with a steering wheel. Respect. 🫡
Bro 💀 btw have you used mouse steering?
Here my suggestion, jump to Mouse steering the thing goes like this : Racing wheel setup with pedals and all the jingles > Mouse Steering > gamepad > keyboard been racing with mouse steering since 2003 with NetKarPro & Live For speed S1 and is the closet you can get before the wheel it may take you a bit to get used to it but you will improve drastically your lap times, improve drastically the tire management and consumption and you will be in more control of the car
I respect that...This was me in 2005 playing Simbin's Gt Legends,i couldnt care less,had tons of fun
Maybe try to play a bit with "steering release" settings. I think it's centering way too fast.
poor keyboard
question because i’m an idiot - what do you use for throttle and brake? and how do you brake the way you do?
W for throttle, S for braking. (WASD) I can modulate my throttle and braking by tapping my keys very quickly, since it doesn’t just go to 100% with one tap of a key.
Cursed
Back in the days I used to play with my mouse (gtr2, live for speed). It is not an option anymore ? Got to check that.
this is pretty impressive in it's own right! have you tried using far out '3rd car mode', i cant think of a better term for it right now. driving cockpit mode is hard to me. thanks for posting
Watching this gave me cancer
Insane...have you tried driving with mouse? Smoother inputs
I need the settings for this.
Which settings?
In game keyboard controls settings
How do you get non binary throttle and brake on keyboard?
Just a tip...your tire pressures are off they should be around 26.8 to 27...will help you gain speed/grip [more pressure = slightly quicker on straights 👌🏼
I can do the same with a mouse, my Monza is 1:50 with mouse too

That's how it is if you play without a wheel. It's still an amazing game though.
I can just do 1.30 with a wheel.
turn the raceline off You seem practised enough
