- 1:41I'm so happy to talk about simracing, racing, and yeah, and everything with you.
- 1:46Yeah, oh my god.
- 1:48I was, I was having a little chat with her and I feel like I'm learning already.
- 1:53So I'm so excited to have more a deep talk about simracing
- 1:57and Some stuff with Love46.
- 2:00Hey, by the way, Sophie, Yvonne, if you have questions, feel free
- 2:04to drop it in the chat for Love46.
- 2:07Alright, so, Liu, so, um, you are, you're starting from Real Racing
- 2:13before you got into SimRacing, right?
- 2:15If I'm not mistaken.
- 2:18Yeah, that's right.
- 2:18I started when I was nine years old from karting.
- 2:22Then I won four times championship of Kazakhstan.
- 2:25Uh, then hopefully we had the circumstances which, uh, give me
- 2:31opportunity to get into open wheelers.
- 2:33And, uh, I spent two seasons.
- 2:37Uh, in open, open, open wheelers, there was a formal masters, uh,
- 2:41Asia cup series in, uh, Malaysia.
- 2:45Um, and yeah, then I took a part in W series selection event in 2019.
- 2:50And then I did, uh, formal four in 2019 as well.
- 2:54Uh, there was formal four South Asia.
- 2:57Uh, we race two rounds at Spank.
- 3:00Um, unfortunately in 2015, when I finished, uh, Formal master.
- 3:05So finish a P4 in championship, uh, with, uh, some podiums.
- 3:10Um, unfortunate Sonoma to sports.
- 3:12That's my team who sponsored me and supported me in my way in racing.
- 3:16Uh, they decided to shut down, uh, the racing program in Kazakhstan.
- 3:21Uh, so yeah, that's the reason why I just stopped racing.
- 3:26Um, so yeah, this, this is how it happened.
- 3:29Um, so grateful that I had this, uh, in real life experience and,
- 3:35Uh, met a lot of, uh, nice people also, and, uh, some people, uh,
- 3:40helped me to get into sim racing.
- 3:43So yeah, so then when, when, when was your, like, when was the time when you're
- 3:51like deciding to, okay, I'm sim racing.
- 3:56Uh, that happened by, I think, by accident, so I, uh, so I'm from,
- 4:02yeah, I'm from, from Elmwood.
- 4:09Yeah, so how was it, like?
- 4:12Yeah, I just, uh, so I was living in Almaty in Kazakhstan, uh, then I moved
- 4:16to Moscow, uh, because, uh, people suggest me to work here as a coach, uh,
- 4:21racing coach on the, on the racing track.
- 4:24Um, and, uh, then one of my friends, uh, just suggest me to go to some
- 4:29racing club, uh, to have fun in sim.
- 4:32And um, I just said like, yeah, let's go.
- 4:37Why not?
- 4:37Uh, so, and then after some months, uh, I started to work with them as a coach,
- 4:43uh, as a manager of, uh, this location.
- 4:46Uh, started to get into simulators deeply.
- 4:49Uh, had I think one moment with, uh, sim racing before that.
- 4:54So I was practicing the track, which I, uh, had to, I see, had to.
- 5:00Had to race, yeah.
- 5:02So my first simulator was race 07.
- 5:06Um, I practiced track for the formula race.
- 5:10And, uh, yeah, and then, uh, fully diving deep into SimRacing 2017.
- 5:17So, I was working as a coach on this simulacation.
- 5:20We had, uh, Seto Corsa, uh, with, uh, motion platforms, with, uh, DD wheels.
- 5:26And, uh, so we had everything.
- 5:28And also, I raced on Dirt Rally.
- 5:32Oh, what?
- 5:32In Dirt Rally?
- 5:33Yeah.
- 5:34Yeah.
- 5:35Okay.
- 5:36And then?
- 5:37Okay.
- 5:37So, yeah, casting up my microphone in the meantime, by the way.
- 5:41All right.
- 5:43. I'm a pro streamer at this point.
- 5:45Wait, guys is better.
- 5:46Oh.
- 5:46Oh, good.
- 5:49. Is it better now?
- 5:50Hi, Nina.
- 5:52Nina.
- 5:53Hi.
- 5:53Welcome.
- 5:54Welcome in.
- 5:55Oh my God, Nina.
- 5:56Hi, Nina.
- 5:56Mac.
- 5:57Hi Sophie.
- 5:58Oh my God, guys.
- 5:59So a bit better.
- 6:01I think this is like the maximum.
- 6:03Yes, okay.
- 6:05Okay, if it works, it works kids.
- 6:07Okay, so I don't know why because I just got back from Dallas So basically
- 6:11this setup has been like yeah I don't know and by far when I was like
- 6:17like testing it before it was fine.
- 6:19But Yeah, okay, well, it works now.
- 6:23So, by the way, hello everyone.
- 6:25Hello Nina, hello guys.
- 6:27Welcome to Init Talks with Love46.
- 6:30So, we were having a chat with Liu at this moment, at this moment, not
- 6:34like at this point, at this moment, like, about how did she get into
- 6:37simracing, and also, like, her story.
- 6:40Experience racing in real life.
- 6:42And that was like really cool because, Oh, I know the track by
- 6:45the way, Sepang, because it was like pretty close from where I live.
- 6:49But then like, I live in Indonesia and Malaysia and Indonesia
- 6:52is like very, very close.
- 6:53So yeah, I heard a lot about that track and I wish I knew you back then so I
- 6:58can fly and actually watch you racing.
- 7:02How is it like racing in real life?
- 7:04Like, yeah, you feel the G force, right?
- 7:07Like you feel, you feel like more details than when you're like,
- 7:11Raising in the same, of course, right?
- 7:13Or, is it like, close enough, like Um, for me, it's close enough.
- 7:20You, so you, you, you're not having this, uh, G forces.
- 7:22Yeah.
- 7:23Uh, in some racing, but overall, uh, the, like the excitement and, um,
- 7:29how you focus on racing and, uh, how you close to your opponents on track.
- 7:34So that's the same.
- 7:36And I think.
- 7:38That's my opinion, uh, but, um, I think that sim racing more competitive
- 7:44than some in real life series.
- 7:46So of course I'm not talking about like maybe super cop, uh, or
- 7:50formal one or super, super eight.
- 7:54Yeah.
- 7:54Or something like that.
- 7:55I know that this series is really competitive, but when I race, uh,
- 7:58Asia cup series or formal four, uh, we didn't have, um, you know, that really
- 8:03close battles, which I'm getting.
- 8:06So you just jump into a daily race and you get in, uh, really
- 8:10competitive, uh, people around you.
- 8:12That's really cool.
- 8:13Um,
- 8:24so yeah, I, I just.
- 8:26So you, that's a, I was using raise your seven.
- 8:28That's really old, uh, seam, which is, uh, basically as I remember a factor,
- 8:34not, not second, that's a first or factor.
- 8:38Um, uh, then I did some, I said, of course, so I didn't know about, uh, I
- 8:44racing at all, so I just, uh, worked in a sim racing center, then moved to
- 8:49the different, uh, sim racing company.
- 8:51Uh, and here.
- 8:53Uh, we had a guy who had, I think he, he's got like 5k
- 8:57iRacing or something like that.
- 8:59So he was really into, uh, GT3, Blimp R series.
- 9:03Uh, so he, yeah, he tried to get into, uh, the pro series.
- 9:09Uh, these days there was 2012, something like that.
- 9:12Uh, so he first time showed me iRacing, but Uh, I was not really excited about it.
- 9:19I don't know why.
- 9:20So maybe I just, uh, wasn't that, uh, um, you know, we wasn't exciting
- 9:27about some racing, uh, so it was, uh, busy with some other stuff.
- 9:31Um, yeah.
- 9:33And then when I met Vlad, uh, this is my husband, uh, he also, uh, come
- 9:39to work in the, into this company.
- 9:41So we met, uh, met each other here and, uh, he just showed me a racing.
- 9:45And I remember he.
- 9:47He put me, so, like, let's, let's get a count in iRacing and you, you're
- 9:52going to RaceMix 5 today because it's Summit Point, that's a great track.
- 9:56Oh my god, so basically Flat was the one who introduced you to iRacing.
- 10:02Yes, he, he really, like, put me into a simulator with iRacing
- 10:07and, um, Just show me everything.
- 10:10He showed me also all those real likes.
- 10:13So I did some street stock races at Charlotte
- 10:18So yeah, that's how I get into iRacing that happened because of him and into
- 10:23streaming That that's also because of him and we're working on this on our channel
- 10:29Love heuristics channel together So, yeah, yeah, it's really fun Yeah, you guys like
- 10:37working together like you're so basically flat is pretty much like coaching you
- 10:42sometimes or Yeah, how did you like learn or get better in in iRacing?
- 10:50Yeah, he teach me a lot of stuff.
- 10:52Also, as this friend who tried to show me a racing, he also tried
- 10:58to get into Blimpo Pro Series.
- 11:01Unfortunately, these days, they had like team, team racing to get into Pro Series.
- 11:08So sometimes he had issues with his teammate.
- 11:12That's, I think that's the reason why they didn't get, uh, into the series.
- 11:16So either way, they'll be in the pro racing series and race GT freeze.
- 11:22Yeah, that'll be a really cool.
- 11:24Um, so yeah, he, he just, uh, teach me a lot of stuff in streaming, uh,
- 11:30how to set up everything, uh, how to set up iRacing, um, how to, you know,
- 11:36Like fight better with people on track.
- 11:39Um, because no matter that I, I had my in real life experience, that's.
- 11:46Not really, uh, big experience, which I get, uh, because we were
- 11:50really, really limited with the financial side and everything.
- 11:55So I just didn't get a lot of time on track, a lot of races as some other
- 12:00people, like if we, uh, go into look at, at Max first up and he did a lot of in
- 12:06real life races, like four more free.
- 12:08And, uh, he just.
- 12:10Spend all his life on the track.
- 12:12So I didn't do in this way.
- 12:15Um, so yeah, and I think that during this four years of streaming and, uh, of racing
- 12:22in iRacing, I, Learn a lot, uh, like I'm better on track, I'm, I understand better
- 12:31how to, uh, fight with people, how to improve my lap times and everything, yeah.
- 12:37Yeah, so basically like sim racing is giving you like unlimited sit time,
- 12:41unlimited experience you can get.
- 12:44Because yeah, it's, it's not like, even Max Verstappen like,
- 12:47yeah, he race a lot in real life, but he's not doing it like full.
- 12:51Yeah.
- 12:5212 hours a day or something like that.
- 12:54Meanwhile in simulator, we can like keep on practicing, keep on improving
- 12:58and Yeah, I think that's how I see it.
- 13:01Like sim racing is giving you like accessibility to
- 13:07to well to improve yourself in racing in terms of getting faster or also
- 13:13like practicing your racecraft and Yeah, gaining experience of many tracks
- 13:18basically Because you don't need to fly to Australia to learn butter.
- 13:22You know what I mean?
- 13:22Like you can just stay at home and actually like practicing it or you know
- 13:30Yeah, that's the main thing.
- 13:31So If you raise a new series and you didn't have opportunity
- 13:35to Just go for it practice.
- 13:37Yeah, because it's so far away and it's expensive.
- 13:40So you just jump into the sim Uh learning the track here at least when
- 13:45you arrive for for the real practice you're going to You Going to know the
- 13:50track and all you need just to adapt to the car and adapt your driving to
- 13:54the track Which you got for practice.
- 13:57So yeah sim racing just incredible and nice tool for racing drivers
- 14:05and really fun thing overall
- 14:11Right.
- 14:12Yeah, I don't know why, Sofie.
- 14:13So basically this is like the maximum of my microphone that I can get right now.
- 14:19I gotta check it, but yeah, it's right behind my setup.
- 14:25I will try to speak louder then, I will try to speak louder then.
- 14:29By the way, Bickel is here.
- 14:30Oh my god, uh, Liu, let's get out of here.
- 14:33Bickel is here.
- 14:36Bickel, hello.
- 14:40Bickel!
- 14:41Hi, welcome, welcome in.
- 14:43Oh my god, thank you so much for the follow.
- 14:44Bickel, how are you doing today?
- 14:46How are you doing?
- 14:47Hi, by the way, wait, wait, I think Dina said something here in the chat.
- 14:52Vertical Gs always weird me out.
- 14:54Vertical Gs.
- 14:58Hi, by the way, hi, Jacob.
- 15:02Is it fine?
- 15:03Okay, so it's confusing for some people.
- 15:06It's like my voice is totally fine, but for Sophie and Maki's I
- 15:11think my voice is a bit too low.
- 15:14Huh.
- 15:14It's so confusing.
- 15:15My microphone is right here By the way, hi guys.
- 15:20Hi
- 15:24Alright, right, right.
- 15:26How about this?
- 15:31All right, so Liu, all right, so we're still having, like, an audio issue moment.
- 15:38All right, I hope I'm not,
- 15:42I'm not too loud now.
- 15:43No, no, no, no, it was from my aunt, so I turned off your volume on
- 15:47the call, so you know what I mean.
- 15:49Hey Sophie, hi, welcome.
- 15:51Hi Sophie!
- 15:52Oh wait, were you guys racing together in MFR?
- 15:55Which season was that?
- 15:57Oh, we raced, I don't remember what season that was, I raced with Vlad,
- 16:03this one, and we raced Lamborghini Super Trofeo ST, so that wasn't like GT3
- 16:10car, it was special Trofeo thing, and, uh, We were struggling to set it up.
- 16:17I remember this and I was really pissed when we, uh, we raised like overall
- 16:24top five, we were in pro am I think, uh, us and I peed it for tires and
- 16:32changed the driver and we, we get this, uh, really nasty bug and I said, of
- 16:37course competizione was, uh, uh, so we had locked controls for two minutes.
- 16:41So we were absolutely out of fight, out of everything, yeah.
- 16:47That was sucks.
- 16:48Oh my god.
- 16:49Yeah.
- 16:49Yeah.
- 16:50That sucks.
- 16:52What?
- 16:52Huh.
- 16:53So, I didn't know you guys were racing in MFR.
- 16:56Because, well, I was a newbie back then.
- 16:58I joined in Season 4.
- 17:00So, um, were you back on MFR back then for Season 4 or not?
- 17:07Uh, no, we did only this season.
- 17:09Uh, then we had emotional damage with the set, of course.
- 17:17So she got emotional damage because even low 46 emotional damage.
- 17:25So, okay, everybody can get emotional damage in a sim race.
- 17:29And just get really, uh, complicated relationship with a set course
- 17:33competition, unfortunately.
- 17:37So you're, you're the most Don't ask her about R Factor.
- 17:41Oh my god, the R Factor is like my emotional damage sim, by the way, because
- 17:45What's up with R Factor, by the way?
- 17:49Air Factor 2, I really like to, I really like to race in it, but when we race with
- 17:55Virtua Liman, I raced it two times, first time that was with the W series, we didn't
- 18:01even get on the grid, so we just get into grid, and for my teammate, Air Factor 2
- 18:11just completely shut down, and we couldn't return back, That was really weird
- 18:18because, uh, you know, we waited, uh, some time for someone to join the session.
- 18:23And then when this bug happened to us, so organizers said that.
- 18:28Okay, race is over for you, and we can do anything from our side.
- 18:33So that was really weird for me, um, that this has happened.
- 18:37Yeah, because they could just, you know, maybe restart the
- 18:40server and, um, give opportunity.
- 18:43Because, uh, our car disconnected, and I think, uh, two cars at
- 18:48least, uh, disconnected as well.
- 18:51Oh, so you are not the only team who got disconnected.
- 18:54Yeah, yeah, we're not, we're not only one team.
- 18:57Uh, we, yeah, so this thing happened to us.
- 19:00Yeah, that was weird.
- 19:02Right.
- 19:04So, and then, uh, second time when, yeah.
- 19:08Second time when we raised virtual Leman, Uhhuh, uh, Bo, both of my teammates,
- 19:12they had, uh, , uh, wheel bases.
- 19:16Mm-hmm . And, uh, the same as Max first.
- 19:19He race also Simco this year.
- 19:21And, uh, their wheel just, uh, you know, disconnected in the
- 19:25middle of the sane straits.
- 19:27Oh.
- 19:28So when car, um.
- 19:30Went fully to the left and crashed.
- 19:33Uh huh.
- 19:34Right, right, right.
- 19:34And of course it's damage and stuff.
- 19:37Yeah, and two times that happened to us.
- 19:40That was really sad because we were That was really sad.
- 19:44Yeah.
- 19:44Yeah.
- 19:45Yeah, I mean, you cannot even finish the race in RF.
- 19:50Yeah, hopefully, absolutely no issues from my side, from my,
- 19:54like, SimReek and everything.
- 19:56So rFactor 2 was really kind with me.
- 19:59I don't know what, what happened with guys.
- 20:03And Sophie also said that she couldn't make, get the RF to work properly.
- 20:08Like, what?
- 20:09I don't know.
- 20:10I mean, I, I only raised in rFactor like one time, one time,
- 20:15and I can't remember any of it.
- 20:16But I think as far as I remember, I feel like it was fine, but I just
- 20:23don't understand the UI and everything.
- 20:26I think the problem was more like on my end.
- 20:29Hi, by the way, Steve, thank you so much for the follow.
- 20:32Thank you.
- 20:33Thank you.
- 20:33Enjoy your time here.

- 20:40Lost.
- 20:42That's cute.
- 20:44Yeah.
- 20:45So, so basically mostly like you're racing in, I racing mostly in like special
- 20:51events, like In Screen2Speed also, you were in Screen2Speed Holidays, right?
- 21:00Wait, yeah, Screen2Speed, we were having it in iRacing, and then
- 21:04you were in Porsche also, right?
- 21:07And then what else did you join, like, some big events?
- 21:13Um, some big events, you mean what I did in racing, yeah?
- 21:16Yeah, yeah, in sim racing, like in iRacing specifically.
- 21:21There was the Porsche All Star Series, uh, so race for the second season,
- 21:26uh, with them, with other streamers.
- 21:28And, uh, also we were part of, uh, EVRA, uh, club sports series.
- 21:34We finished P5 with Olympus Sports in Porsche Cup, uh, class, uh, and our
- 21:40second team in Porsche Camp, uh, finished P6, so we had really strong season.
- 21:46Um, and previously, uh, also race, uh, Alpine sports, uh, as trimmer, uh, in
- 21:55the set of course, we had, uh, some races in GT force that was, I think, uh, the
- 22:02most fun experience in the set of course.
- 22:04Because I really enjoy, uh, GT4s in this simulator.
- 22:09Uh, they're really fun to race, uh, especially in rain.
- 22:12They're so fun.
- 22:14Um, so yeah.
- 22:17What else we did?
- 22:18Oh, yes.
- 22:22Uh, VCO.
- 22:23ProSim.
- 22:24Uh, we did this, uh, two or three times.
- 22:27Yeah.
- 22:27So two times we did Infinity.
- 22:29Uh, first Infinity I did with my own team, Love46.
- 22:34Um, Previously, we race, uh, ProSim, uh, like two times before
- 22:42that and two VCO Infinity events.
- 22:45Yeah.
- 22:46And then two times, uh, Virtual Le Mans, uh, which, uh, first
- 22:51time I did was W Series.
- 22:52Uh, second time there was, uh, uh, Graf by ATRS Sports.
- 22:57Uh, there was, uh, Absolutely amazing team and a unique experience
- 23:02for me because I was driving LMP2 car, uh, it was also fun and nice.
- 23:08Even, even we finished, uh, not on really good position, uh, in virtual
- 23:13Le Mans, I enjoy, uh, driving with team, uh, with, uh, pro drivers.
- 23:18Also, we had, uh, um, driver who race, uh, LMP2 in real life
- 23:23and race 24 hour of Le Mans.
- 23:26So, yeah, that was, that was really, uh, nice.
- 23:31Yeah, and the VCO, uh, wait, so, um, wait, VCO, the last
- 23:39VCO was the Infinity, I think.
- 23:42I think it was like last month?
- 23:45Last month, I think.
- 23:46Yeah, like a month ago or two months ago, yeah.
- 23:50Well, we race with, uh, Olympus sports.
- 23:53That's my main team.
- 23:54Uh, also got good, uh, story about this team.
- 23:59So we actually met with my manager, Charles Bushell, uh, before in Instagram.
- 24:04So he's following me, uh, from my racing career.
- 24:08Then again, Get into, uh, sim racing and streaming, uh, he appear on the channel.
- 24:15And, uh, then like in one year or so, he started, uh, Olympus eSport team.
- 24:20And now we got huge team with a lot of drivers.
- 24:24Uh, we started only like with three or four drivers.
- 24:27Now that's a, uh, good eSport team with a really fast, uh, and.
- 24:33Nice people.
- 24:34So I'm so proud to, to be a part of it, Uhhuh, because I was like in the
- 24:38beginning of the team and I'm still racing with them, uh, from time to time.
- 24:41So some Endurances, uh, and, uh, some events like, uh, YA
- 24:47club sports series, uh, and we having fun together, so, oh yeah.
- 24:54By the way, Nina and Yvonne were also racing in, in the physio Infinity.
- 24:59How was it by the way?
- 25:01How was the competition?
- 25:03This is the question also for you, Yvonne and Nina.
- 25:06How was, how was the VCO?
- 25:09VCO was incredible.
- 25:10I really like, uh, so we decided that I'm going to drive, uh, Xfinity
- 25:15car, Xfinity event, Xfinity car.
- 25:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 25:19I always get confused, like, infinity, Xfinity.
- 25:23I keep on saying VCO, Xfinity, and I was like, oh man, that was wrong.
- 25:27B class NASCAR car.
- 25:29So that will be easier for people to understand.
- 25:32Yeah.
- 25:32So maybe, uh, some people not familiar with, uh, Xfinity.
- 25:36Uh, so that's, that's like a previous gen, uh, NASCAR cars.
- 25:40Um, and yeah, we race them at road courses.
- 25:45That was really fun.
- 25:48I, I get a lot of new experience and new emotions.
- 25:52Uh, I really like it.
- 25:53I race, I race more.
- 25:56No, no, no, not really.
- 25:59I really, yeah, I enjoy in this car at road courses.
- 26:03That's, that's really challenging and rewarding at the same time,
- 26:07because even if you get to the finish line, you're like, wow, I did it.
- 26:14I tried to drive it, I think a few weeks ago in iRacing, we were
- 26:18having the Xfinity at Road America.
- 26:21So basically I was like trying to driving that car in road course.
- 26:25And.
- 26:26Oh my God, that was hard.
- 26:27I think the Xfinity is like harder than driving the cup car in road course.
- 26:31It's like scary.
- 26:33Thanks, Glenn.
- 26:35I can drive, I don't mind, like, I don't mind and I'm so happy to drive
- 26:40the next gen in road course, but once I tried driving the Xfinity in road
- 26:46course, I got emotional damage because, like, that was like challenging,
- 26:50but I bet it's so rewarding, like, once you know how to drive it.
- 26:55It was really hard because you, uh, when you get out of the, of the turn,
- 27:00you have to, uh, keep the throttle like on 70%, you can go to 100 because every
- 27:07time you go to 100 directly, you're just spinning the car because it's just too
- 27:11much power for, for this road courses.
- 27:14Um, so you have to keep like 70 and then as you feel that okay,
- 27:19car straight, you then can.
- 27:22Then you can go for 100%.
- 27:24Yeah.
- 27:24So that was really cool.
- 27:26We race.
- 27:27So race Monza, road Atlanta, and I don't remember.
- 27:33I think I raced another one track.
- 27:37Oh yes.
- 27:37Phillip Island.
- 27:38And I raced Monza with a super formal lights.
- 27:42Yeah.
- 27:43That was really fun.
- 27:44The super formula is a fun car to drive.
- 27:46I haven't like got into the official, but yeah, that was fun.
- 27:50I only do it like one, two times in fast rush.
- 27:54You cannot wait for the Corvée in the Six Hours of the Glen.
- 27:58Oh my god, oh yeah, when is it?
- 28:00Is it next month, or is it this month?
- 28:03Uh, that, that'll be, I think, next week, so people tell me that
- 28:07it's going to be 14th, uh, 15th.
- 28:11Oh my god, is it, is it this week?
- 28:14And next week, I mean, is it?
- 28:15Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, let me Google it.
- 28:17I didn't see.
- 28:19Six Hours Glen, oh my god, so I'm planning to do it, guys.
- 28:23Liu, I'm planning to do the Six Hours of the Glen.
- 28:26And is it, I thought it would be like next month, you know, like,
- 28:30okay, I just got back from Texas.
- 28:32No, no, this month.
- 28:33Yeah.
- 28:34Hi, Steve!
- 28:35By the way, welcome!
- 28:3714 to 16, oh my god!
- 28:39Hello!
- 28:40Hello, Steve!
- 28:41Welcome, welcome to Welcome to Indie Talks, and I'm Els, I'm your host for
- 28:46today, and I got panic attack right now.
- 28:48Your host got panic attack.
- 28:50Oh my god.
- 28:52Alright, and by the way, are you doing the six hours, Leo?
- 28:55Uh, I think so, I have to, uh, ask my Olympus Esports
- 28:59friends, uh, for the teammate.
- 29:02Huh, why don't you race with us?
- 29:05If you're, if you're thinking about it, like, if you're looking for a
- 29:08teammate, maybe you wanna do it.
- 29:10I wait, but that will be like such a different or such a
- 29:15huge gap of irating between us.
- 29:19I need to reach you first, I think, before we can read.
- 29:22Do it solo.
- 29:24Do it solo, yeah.
- 29:26Can we?
- 29:27I wait, can we do solo without getting disqualified?
- 29:31Uh, not really sure about this event, but you can do VRS Endurances, uh, without
- 29:36getting disqualification now, so you can do 3 hours Endurances and GT3s solo.
- 29:43Huh, so you can do IMSA and the GT3 solo then?
- 29:47Yeah, yeah, right.
- 29:48Oh, interesting.
- 29:50Maybe I should try to do it sometimes.
- 29:52Huh.
- 29:53Oh my god.
- 29:56Yeah, some androids you can all check.
- 29:57Thank you.
- 29:58Thank you, Steve.
- 29:59Oh my god.
- 30:00Oh my god.
- 30:01Oh wait.
- 30:01Um, Liu, by the way, did, did you, did you do the Coke 600 a
- 30:05few weeks ago, two weeks ago?
- 30:08Or were you doing the Indy 500?
- 30:12Yes, we did Coke 600, I think we finished P7.
- 30:19Yeah, P7.
- 30:21Yeah, it was good because it was a quite competitive split.
- 30:24Uh, so we did, didn't get into crashes, uh, had a lot of, uh,
- 30:28green flags during this race.
- 30:31Yeah, Indy 500, unfortunately, uh, didn't go as expected, uh, we crashed
- 30:37on lap 57, uh, that happened on restart, so just the cars ahead of me slowed
- 30:44down, I slowed down with them, so I had a really small gap to the next car in
- 30:48front of me, uh, and, yeah, just the person behind didn't react in time, uh,
- 30:53crashed into my rear, and, uh, spawned me, I get into the wall, get the wheel
- 30:59damage, and, um, Uh, we get like, uh, five minutes required repairs, and
- 31:04unfortunately car was, uh, undriveable, so decided to, uh, to stop, unfortunately.
- 31:11Sorry for the spectacular crash.
- 31:13Yeah.
- 31:15You know, I wanted to fly over the Indianapolis or something
- 31:20like that, but that was the ridiculous crash which happened.
- 31:25Oh my god, that sounds like Me in Talladega, Bicol, if you remember.
- 31:31What happened to Liu was like exactly what I did to someone accidentally
- 31:37in Talladega, if you remember.
- 31:40Oh my god.
- 31:42Okay, it appears to be minimum of two drivers.
- 31:4546 hours of the Glen.
- 31:46I see, I see.
- 31:48Yeah, okay, I'll try to do it.
- 31:49Like, two drivers, maybe.
- 31:51It's gonna be multi class, right?
- 31:53The Glen.
- 31:55Uh, Glen?
- 31:56I think that should be GT Freeze only.
- 32:00Oh, Glenn is YouTubers only.
- 32:01Oh, I see, then.
- 32:03I think so.
- 32:03Is there a problem, then?
- 32:05Indoor trauma.
- 32:05At least the Yeah, I got trauma, be cool.
- 32:09I got traumatized.
- 32:11Oh, wait.
- 32:12I thought, I thought six hours off with Glenn is like multi class.
- 32:15I was, I'm dumb.
- 32:16I'm so dumb.
- 32:18No, it's IMSA, six hours.
- 32:21Ah, IMSA.
- 32:22Okay.
- 32:22Oh.
- 32:24Oh.
- 32:25Yeah, then multi class will be, yeah.
- 32:28I just remember that previously we did Glint 6 hours and we had only GT3s.
- 32:35Oh yeah, sometimes you can get like the GT3 only split.
- 32:39I don't know how did that happen, but I think when I was racing in
- 32:43Daytona 24 with Ash and Sierra, I think we were like in GT3 only split.
- 32:49Daytona should be multi class, right?
- 32:50So it was like, okay, it's better, I think, if it's not
- 32:54multi class because sometimes I'm afraid of, of the GTP drivers.
- 32:59I don't know why.
- 32:59Ah, so scary.
- 33:02Your first NEC, you had the GT3 only.
- 33:06Right, right, right, the GT3 only.
- 33:09Hi!
- 33:10Oh my god.
- 33:11I think, I don't mind doing a multiclass race, but if I have a,
- 33:15if I have like, um, like a spotter, I feel like, okay, I'll be fine.
- 33:20But if I don't have a spotter, I'm a bit afraid of some prototype drivers.
- 33:27Do you like it, by the way, the multiclass race, or not really?
- 33:31Not really a big fan of it?
- 33:33I'm a big fan of multiclass racing, because, uh, you just Basically,
- 33:39you have to stay out of troubles.
- 33:40You should be fine.
- 33:42And, yeah, sometimes you can get a lot of positions because people hurry.
- 33:47GT3 is not paying enough attention if you're in GT3's class.
- 33:52So, sometimes that's some freebies for you.
- 33:54Some freebies.
- 33:55Oh, right.
- 33:57So, any tips for slower class car,
- 34:03like the faster class car?
- 34:04Any tips for it?
- 34:07Oh, I get this.
- 34:08Thanks.
- 34:09Yeah, I get this question a lot in my streams, uh, when
- 34:12we raise some multiclasses.
- 34:14Um, so main thing will be that for me you have to try to raise And you have to try
- 34:22to race at least an LMP2, uh, for the one race, just to understand where to, um,
- 34:29like where prototypes can jump in and, uh, like overtake you as a slower car class.
- 34:37Uh, and for slower car class, you're also going to understand
- 34:40where they can jump and you'll be more careful in these places.
- 34:44Um, so yeah, you're just watching for the relatives, um, like if car 1.
- 34:515 away from you, you have to be ready that any time on the right, on the
- 34:56left, so here is a prototype can be.
- 34:59Uh, and just.
- 35:02Trying to escape from the situations where, like, you got, like, two
- 35:07G3s, maybe two wide, and here is another prototype, so you just have
- 35:10to let go situations sometimes.
- 35:13Yeah, you just let go people.
- 35:15They crashing and you just continue the race
- 35:20So your tips is You have to try at least driving in different cars on that series.
- 35:26So you yeah Yeah, you get how it feels to be the to be the prototype and to
- 35:32be the GT3 car Yeah, I think so because that you're going to understand how to
- 35:40behave and Faster car class and in slower car class also, um, I think my dream to
- 35:47make it mandatory for everybody to, you know, to race both classes, uh, before
- 35:53joining like maybe big events like six hour of Glenn or something like that.
- 36:03Maybe if I want to get into insight at some point, I will try to like
- 36:08practicing the way you do it.
- 36:09Like practicing like the different class of that session, like, yeah.
- 36:18Interesting, that's very interesting.
- 36:20Driving the faster cars will help you learn to help them get by.
- 36:24This is a very big word.
- 36:25Slowing down.
- 36:25Right, right.
- 36:27That and being able to adapt to any situation is perfect.
- 36:29Right.
- 36:30Because in the end, like, um, In the end, like, yeah, you cannot,
- 36:35like, keep on, like, blaming or pointing finger to someone in
- 36:39the race when something happens.
- 36:41Like, you know.
- 36:44And the slower class in multi class because, uh.
- 36:47Because I sometimes try to do it faster, probably because I have to
- 36:50watch myself to get around everything.
- 36:55To be that slower class, right, right.
- 36:57Because sometimes when I see, like, okay, back in the day I used to do some IMSA,
- 37:03like, I don't know, it was like one or two years ago, probably, like, yeah.
- 37:07So I was like, I don't know, like, in, in IMSA, every time.
- 37:13Every time, like, I don't know, every time I'm getting into a decision, it's
- 37:16always a chaos, like a big chaos, and everybody just, like, I don't know,
- 37:20like, blaming each other for the crash.
- 37:22I don't know, it's just so absurd back then.
- 37:25At least for the faster class, in my opinion.
- 37:28In my split, in my split, by the way.
- 37:31Because I About, uh, slow Uh huh, what's that?
- 37:35Yeah, about, uh, slower class, I can add that, uh, you have to be predictable.
- 37:40So the best way to be predictable for fast cars that just stay on the racing
- 37:45line, even, uh, so when you see someone jumping and doing dive bomb, of course
- 37:51you're leaving space on the inside.
- 37:52Yeah, but before that moment, you're not moving from the racing line because
- 37:57that's the, Uh, how you can be predictable for everybody because I saw a lot of
- 38:01crashes when, uh, just GT3 tried to let go the prototype in, in the line
- 38:07where prototype like shouldn't be.
- 38:09And this is where the crash happening.
- 38:11So, uh, the best way just stay on the racing line.
- 38:15Uh, just be ready that any moment a car can jump into
- 38:20inside or can be on the outside.
- 38:22Uh, and yeah, that's it.
- 38:24I think you should be fine and should be safe on track.
- 38:28Because in the end, it's like the faster class car job to
- 38:33overtake you safely, right?
- 38:35Like, to pass you safely.
- 38:37As long as, like, you're being predictable, you'll be fine.
- 38:40Like, stay in the line.
- 38:41Yeah, sure.
- 38:42Yeah.
- 38:46Yeah, must make the pass safely.
- 38:47Yes.
- 38:49The slower traffic should be predictable.
- 38:52Right, right.
- 38:52I got into the habit of looking into my mirrors before every
- 38:56turn in the braking zone.
- 38:58Oh, yeah, that one.
- 39:00Use your mirror at the right time, I guess.
- 39:04Use your mirror at the right time.
- 39:07Oh, by the way, Liu, what's your current favorite series in iRacing?
- 39:11Speaking of Because we were talking about the multi class The multi class
- 39:16racing, and now I got into this question.
- 39:18Like, what's your favorite series in iRacing right now?
- 39:23Uh, if we're talking about, uh So we got a few licenses.
- 39:27Yeah, we got like sport cars now, formulas.
- 39:30And some ovals and some other stuff.
- 39:33Uh, so if we talking about GT cars, sport cars, they'll be Porsche cup for me.
- 39:40Uh, if we're talking about formulas, I really like to race a formal one 600
- 39:45because here's a like pure racing and a really fun races, uh, because you,
- 39:52um, staying in draft, you side by side with everybody, uh, all the time, uh,
- 39:58because this car is not really fast.
- 40:00Um, so they're really fun to, um, to fight on the track and about ovals.
- 40:10I think I got a few favorite series here.
- 40:13Uh, there'll be a Draftmaster.
- 40:15She likes Draftmasters too, guys.
- 40:22Okay, what else?
- 40:26Uh, Draftmaster, and I really like Gen 4, as that's really fast car, and on
- 40:32some tracks you can save tires, you can also do some different strategies
- 40:37compared to other people and gain some positions because of that.
- 40:40And I think Xfinity is really good in B class, uh, people usually really polite.
- 40:47In this series, I don't know why, so you're getting into C tracks, here's
- 40:51the most toxic people all over iRacing.
- 40:57They're here, but yeah, in B class, in Xfinity, really polite and nice
- 41:02people, and I really enjoy racing here.
- 41:07Yeah, I just got my a license by the way, so thanks to the coke 600 I gained
- 41:12so much safety rating after my second try So i'm in a class right now, and
- 41:17i'm so excited to try out the a class So how is it by the way in a class?
- 41:23I mean, I I love oval, but I never got into any official session in next gen.
- 41:28So Um, you got your a license already right in oval.
- 41:32So can you share something a bit for me about the a class race?
- 41:37If you're doing some, um, next gen cars, uh, the most, the most important
- 41:42thing to stay in the draft, because when you, uh, like on tracks, Daytona
- 41:48or Talladega or something like that.
- 41:50If you, uh, further away than 0.
- 41:543 tenths from the car in front of you, you're just losing
- 41:58the draft, like, massively.
- 42:00You're just, you're going to be so far away from the train, and you're going to
- 42:04lose opportunity to, um, gain positions.
- 42:07Yeah, and back in the draft as well.
- 42:10Um, So the most important thing just to stay in draft and usually people
- 42:15when they race Daytona and next gen, uh, they just, uh, racing really
- 42:20close to the on the outside line.
- 42:22So you have to learn how to be close to the wall on the outside line also.
- 42:27Yeah, that's it.
- 42:28And, you know, just as always, trying to be a ninja in crashes.
- 42:34Right, right, right.
- 42:36So, basically, in next gen, you cannot lose the draft at all.
- 42:39Like, don't lose the draft.
- 42:41I see.
- 42:42And I can practice that in Draftmasters.
- 42:45Steve also loves the Draftmasters, only when people cannot crash me.
- 42:50Sometimes, like, trying to avoid the crash in Draftmasters is fun.
- 42:53I don't know, it feels so rewarding because, yeah, people
- 42:56is like just crashing everywhere.
- 42:58So, here's the pattern that I realized in Draft Monsters.
- 43:01So, at the first one or two laps, there will be a crash, and then,
- 43:05seven going to ten, normally, you will have another crash.
- 43:09And, I think the most incident happens in lap 18 or 19, something like that.
- 43:14I think that's the pattern of Draftmasters that I realized.
- 43:17Yeah.
- 43:18Like, at the start, in the middle, and at the final.
- 43:22At the final lap.
- 43:24Or the last two laps.
- 43:25Like, yeah, that was crazy.
- 43:27But yeah, I'm, I'm so excited, honestly, getting into the A class next season.
- 43:32Because yeah, I wanna learn.
- 43:34Not like I wanna learn, but I wanna get better in drafting the next gen.
- 43:38It's, it's not my favorite in overall.
- 43:41Maybe because Yeah, maybe because in Superspeedway, for example,
- 43:45you need to like actually like sending it, keeping it on the draft.
- 43:49Like, keep it close to everyone.
- 43:51I think, yeah, that's like, that's like my challenge for now.
- 43:55Like, argh, it gives me anxiety sometimes, guys, to stay close,
- 44:01to stay close to each other.
- 44:02Well, I, I enjoy it, but yeah, I still need to, like, practicing
- 44:06on it, like, get better at it.
- 44:09Do you forget the most important things?
- 44:11If you're going to crush, make it spectacular.
- 44:14Yeah.
- 44:15Did you have, like, so much, so many spectacular crush?
- 44:20In Draftmasters?
- 44:23Uh, well, I think I had a few spectacular.
- 44:27It was like, rolling around the track many times, yeah.
- 44:34That's crazy.
- 44:35Yeah.
- 44:36Yeah, I think that's typical Crash for Draftmasters.
- 44:39Yeah, the typical, what do you expect from Draftmasters?
- 44:42Yeah.
- 44:43That's crazy.
- 44:45Oh my god.
- 44:47And by the way, since you're like, You've been streaming for four years and you've
- 44:51been doing a lot of race in iRacing, so I'm assuming you have like a pretty high
- 44:56iRating, not like super high, high, high, 12k, 15k, but I mean, you're, you're
- 45:03considered as a pro in iRacing, right?
- 45:06Or at least that's what I'm thinking about you.
- 45:10Uh, well, uh, in Rhodes, we had 5k a little bit, so it's a 4.
- 45:155 right now for formulas and for GTs.
- 45:18And, uh, as I'm aware, 5k, that's like top 1 percent of all iRacers.
- 45:25So, yeah, I think that that's really good iRating, which I'm having.
- 45:29Yeah, and in all, um, in all, my rating is really struggling, but we were,
- 45:37yeah, we were really close to 3k.
- 45:40I was, uh, 2970 or something like that, but then I just dropped down and,
- 45:46like, maybe four races in Draftmaster or something like that happened.
- 45:51Oh my god, you lose a lot from four races.
- 45:53Oh my god, what happened?
- 45:54Crash, we crashed, spectacular crash, haven't we?
- 46:01But that's that's also very high like
- 46:05So i'm working on my way to get into the 2k at least I want to get it like
- 46:10in two weeks I think it's very doable.
- 46:12Like i'm very close to it So any advice for me and everyone here in
- 46:17the chat who wants to improve their rating to get the 5k in the end?
- 46:22What if, uh, okay, what if my goal is 5k eye rating?
- 46:26Quit signing up for the posters!
- 46:29Ha ha ha ha ha!
- 46:30So, yeah, Liu, so basically, what are the advice that you can
- 46:34give to me and everyone who wants to improve their eye rating?
- 46:40That's either good or awful.
- 46:45Uh, if we're talking about road races, yeah, let's talk about them because I
- 46:49still struggling how to, uh, you know, gain a rating and, uh, you know, I
- 46:55understand that, you know, once you have to do maybe tracks, which, uh, you good
- 46:59at, maybe that there'll be short tracks, maybe that tracks like, uh, Kansas,
- 47:04uh, where you have to save tires, uh, this is how you can overtake a lot of
- 47:09people and gain a rating and, uh, Uh, for ovals, I think open, um, open races
- 47:17with open set, uh, will be better to gain a racing, um, about road racing.
- 47:24Uh, you just have to think about, um, practicing the track, improving
- 47:29your mistakes, uh, to be able to gain like 5k, you have to be at
- 47:34least, uh, like maybe 5 tenths from the fastest lap times on track.
- 47:40Um, you have to qualify really good.
- 47:43So if you're qualifying.
- 47:45Um, top five or top seven, you, um, you'll get more opportunities to get
- 47:53positions and to get a rating as well.
- 47:55And the most important thing I noticed that if you qualify in top five and
- 48:00wrote a series like maybe Porsche Cup, GT3s and, um, some formulas as well,
- 48:07you just escape from all this, uh, bad crashes, which happened and usually, um,
- 48:11you know, like close to top 10, top 15.
- 48:15Um, So, yeah, you just have to focus on your lap times, how to improve them,
- 48:21uh, get really good qualifying, and then clean, clean race, uh, without crashes.
- 48:27Uh, but if crash happen, you lose, like, some high rating, you just, uh,
- 48:31have to jump to the next race and, uh, do this once again, because that You
- 48:36know, that means nothing if one crash happened, that's nothing because you
- 48:41then can gain a rating in the next like five races or something like that.
- 48:45So it doesn't matter if you're going to lose like 100 rating in one
- 48:48race, so then you can just return back everything in the next races.
- 48:53So yeah, basically just think about racing.
- 48:56Think about your driving instead of thinking, are you gaining a rating or not?
- 49:01Right, right, right.
- 49:02So focus on your race craft and everything and yeah, put aside the
- 49:06irate in first, in the first place.
- 49:09Stick with what, with one car also help, but that's not fun.
- 49:12Yeah, that's my thing.
- 49:14Cause sometimes I'm like trying different, different car every week.
- 49:18Like, I don't know, this week I want to do this next week.
- 49:21I want to do that.
- 49:21I don't know.
- 49:22So do we really need to stick in one car?
- 49:26If we want to act well, if you want to improve, of course,
- 49:29you have to focus on one car.
- 49:31So we had this conversation before, before we started the stream, right?
- 49:36I just, uh, suggest all people who's coming to my stream, they
- 49:40asking me, uh, like what GT3 to try on this track, on that track.
- 49:45I just telling that you have to choose the GT3 which you best with.
- 49:49You feeling comfortable, you feeling, um, Confident in this car on the track.
- 49:55So that's the most important thing because we got like, and if we talking
- 49:59about G freeze, here's the like 40 minute races, that's quite a long time.
- 50:04Yeah.
- 50:04So, uh, here's a tire wear effects on the lap times on driving as well.
- 50:09Uh, and you really have to be confident in the car and comfortable on the track
- 50:14to be able to finish this race and to gain positions and yeah, finish then.
- 50:22Uh, so just.
- 50:24If that's your first season, G3, second season, uh, you don't have a lot of
- 50:30experience, uh, back then, just, yeah, focus on one car and, uh, um, yeah,
- 50:40focus on one car, just take your time to learn tracks, how to be better with
- 50:45them and, uh, correct your mistakes.
- 50:47Also, the most important thing, uh, just not put Four hours,
- 50:53six hours for the practice.
- 50:55Yet, uh, you have to practice, um, how I'm doing this.
- 50:59I'm just, uh, trying to, um, watch the video, uh, where I can see the breaking
- 51:04points, uh, from the other fast person.
- 51:08Uh, you can find them on YouTube.
- 51:10You can use Garage 61, which is free.
- 51:13Uh, here's some, uh, data from other people.
- 51:17So you can compare it on the website, and it's really easy to use.
- 51:21Um, it's going to help you to find your mistakes.
- 51:23Uh, and also, usually I'm starting from learning the breaking points, entry
- 51:29points to the corners, exit points.
- 51:32So I'm trying to use the whole track, trying to, like, improve my breaking
- 51:37points, and, uh, just be focused on this.
- 51:40And You just jumping to the session doing some labs if you see that you're
- 51:45consistent enough you then go into Like garage 61 compare your data to faster
- 51:52people See your mistakes where you're losing and you're trying to focus on this
- 51:58like exact T1, T2 or T5, yeah, and you're doing that for like maybe 30 minutes,
- 52:05then you, um, taking the break, then maybe return back for another one hour practice
- 52:11or so, uh, because it doesn't matter if you're going to be like four hours.
- 52:16Uh, without analyzing.
- 52:18Yeah.
- 52:18So just talking that, uh, you have to analyze.
- 52:21So if you're doing like one hour practice, but you analyzing and you're
- 52:24trying to improve and correct your mistakes on track, that's going to be
- 52:29better practice overall, then instead of you, you're just putting four hours
- 52:34on the track, you're just racing.
- 52:35It's because you're just going to race the same mistakes for four hours.
- 52:39That's not going to lead you anywhere to better lap times.
- 52:45Isn't it two laps of quali enough practice?
- 52:49No, Bickel, if you want to survive the race, or go faster, you need more
- 52:54than two laps of practice, Bickel.
- 52:57Yeah.
- 52:58And you need to get into more races, Bickel.
- 53:00Like, you're, like, subscribing to iRacing, yet you only do,
- 53:03like, one race in a year.
- 53:05Like, wow, Bickel, that's crazy.
- 53:09But never forget to have fun.
- 53:10That's true.
- 53:11Never forget to have fun.
- 53:12I'm having so much fun guys still in iRacing Well, I got some emotional damage,
- 53:17but that was more because of my internet but not specifically on iRacing No It
- 53:24doesn't give me any emotional damage.
- 53:26Just my connection I hate it All right.
- 53:30So by the way Liu any advice for the girls out there?
- 53:35For everyone, like every girls out there who wants to get better in simracing.
- 53:39Or who wants to start getting into it.
- 53:42If you know what I mean.
- 53:45Well Just can give advice here for everybody for everyone if you want
- 53:50to get into sim racing and Like if you got friends who's telling you
- 53:55all that sim racing not for you Just say goodbye to this friends.
- 53:59You're going to find new better friends in sim racing
- 54:07Yeah, I think that's if you want to start something You just have to, you have to
- 54:15go for it, follow your dreams, yeah, if you want to start sim racing, you just
- 54:18have to jump and start sim racing, we also got, uh, Nice opportunities right now,
- 54:24and I think in many cities, so we got like some racing centers where you can just
- 54:31Take take a rick yeah for our and try it.
- 54:34Yeah, if you Kind of thinking if you want to get your own rick yet at home
- 54:40So maybe you just want to try it you can you got this opportunity and how to
- 54:45improve that's once again Uh, put more time to, uh, practice with analyzing
- 54:52your data, analyzing, uh, your labs and, uh, analyzing other, other people labs,
- 54:58yeah, which, uh, who faster than you.
- 55:01Uh, this is how you can.
- 55:03Be better and be faster on the racing track, in sim racing and, uh, in real
- 55:08life racing that's working the same way.
- 55:11So yeah, just, uh, the main thing, follow your dreams and, uh, no
- 55:14matter what, uh, people around you going to tell you, you, uh, if you
- 55:19want something, you have to take it.
- 55:22Yeah, true.
- 55:23Well, yeah, when someone said like, you, you cannot do it.

- 57:07So this will be the Q& A session Q& A session for everyone.
- 57:13What's up, by the way, Tasha?
- 57:14Struggling on the next step?
- 57:17Where did you, uh, ask the question, by the way?
- 57:19Is it on?
- 57:22Wait, is it?
- 57:23Hey, by the way, how was the screen to speed?
- 57:28How was the screen to speed spring cup, by the way?
- 57:31Yvonne!
- 57:32Sophie, how was the screen to speed spring cup?
- 57:34I saw the, um, I saw the replay that Sophie shared to me, like, a few days
- 57:43ago, I watched it and I was, like, working on the clips and everything.
- 57:47The Suzuka was crazy.
- 57:49The Suzuka was crazy rain back then.
- 57:51Elio, by the way, do you play Gran Turismo or not?
- 57:54Not really.
- 57:55Uh, no.
- 57:56No, because I don't have PlayStation.
- 57:58I always had PC.
- 58:00So, yeah, I never tried Gran Turismo.
- 58:02Yeah.
- 58:03Yeah, but you did some Forza sometimes, right?
- 58:05Like Back in the day.
- 58:07Yeah.
- 58:07Forza, because it's available on pc.
- 58:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 58:12How was Forza?
- 58:13Was it fun or because nothing looks really good.
- 58:17Not what?
- 58:18What, what Forza do you mean?
- 58:19Do you mean the horizon five?
- 58:21No, not the horizon or motor sport.
- 58:22Motor sport.
- 58:24The motor sport.
- 58:25ModaSport 1, it was fun, uh, we did some TCR races, I think
- 58:30in it, uh, it was really fun.
- 58:32I love it.
- 58:34But I don't really like ModaSport 7.
- 58:37It was a bit weird.
- 58:38So I think the new one, uh, a lot better with, uh, how car
- 58:42feels on track, especially TCR.
- 58:45Don't know about other cars because I tried road cars, uh,
- 58:49in Forza and not really familiar with road cars on racing tracks.
- 58:54So, yeah.
- 58:55I really like the TCR here.
- 58:57The TCR, I see.
- 59:00Uh,
- 59:03you're still, you're still working with Purple to help
- 59:06her learn to be predictable.
- 59:10To learn how to be predictable when, when being lapped.
- 59:13Yeah, I think, yeah, just as Liu said, like, be predictable when you're like,
- 59:17yeah, being the, being lapped by people.
- 59:21Like, doesn't matter which team.
- 59:23Are you, are you guys playing?
- 59:25But Liz, advice earlier, you can like apply that in every game.
- 59:29Everything, if you know what I mean.
- 59:34Oh, are you going, are you going to have a s in cafe?
- 59:37When is, where is it going to be?
- 59:39The s in cafe?
- 59:41Still working on for some more support for screen to speed.
- 59:45Oh, I see.
- 59:46Good luck by the way.
- 59:47So Sophie Sophie is the one who's um working on the calendar on the schedule
- 59:53and everything for the screen to speed.
- 59:54GG Sophie.
- 59:56GG.
- 59:56So for the upcoming screen to speed.
- 1:00:01For the upcoming screen to speed summer cup we'll be having
- 1:00:03it in iRacing, F1, and so on.
- 1:00:06Uh, GT, in GT also, or correct me if I'm wrong, but one thing for
- 1:00:10sure, we'll be back on iRacing.
- 1:00:12Finally!
- 1:00:13I'm so excited.
- 1:00:15So, by the way, Liu, in the upcoming Scream 2 Speed, we'll be having like
- 1:00:18a championship kind of thing, like a championship for women, so we'll
- 1:00:23be I'm planning to have like all the girls, all my friends, racing together.
- 1:00:27In this championship and well, we're still working on it and
- 1:00:30we'll be racing in F four.
- 1:00:33So for you as a pro, um, I have this question, what do you think
- 1:00:38if we are having a championship?
- 1:00:40A screen to speech championship and we'll be driving the F4 and I'm talking about
- 1:00:44some technical track like in butters Let's say or we put you guys in road Atlanta.
- 1:00:50How how is it?
- 1:00:52How is it going to be?
- 1:00:54Prediction prediction.
- 1:00:56Is it going to be fun or is it going to be like what a spectacular
- 1:01:00well I think, uh, Formal 4.
- 1:01:04Yeah, you, you, you tell me about Formal 4.
- 1:01:07Yeah.
- 1:01:08Um, Rolls Royce should be fine for this, for this car.
- 1:01:11About butters, I think they're going to be a disaster.
- 1:01:16Yeah, because I think I've had, I've seen you, like, doing the F4 butters.
- 1:01:20Like, back in the day, in your stream.
- 1:01:22Like, I was working back then, right?
- 1:01:24So, how was it?
- 1:01:25We're doing butters, butters.
- 1:01:28Oh, I don't remember.
- 1:01:29It was refreshing.
- 1:01:30Wait, I think I didn't do butters with Formal 4.
- 1:01:34I saw that this combo happened like two weeks ago or something
- 1:01:37like that, but I didn't do this.
- 1:01:39Uh, but I think the butters is really, you know, complicated track,
- 1:01:45uh mm-hmm . Even for GT cars because wolves are real close and, uh, a
- 1:01:49lot of fast and blind corners here.
- 1:01:51Mm-hmm . Uh, so yeah, for foremost, they'll be really
- 1:01:55hard track, uh, to drive . Yeah.
- 1:01:58I think I remember like we had, we had a GT three race.
- 1:02:03Like, we had a GT3 race in a, um, but it was like a fun race back then, remember?
- 1:02:08Like, where we had, like, three race.
- 1:02:10First one is Mote Rallycross, second one is GT3 at Butters.
- 1:02:15I forgot which one was that, but I remember like we raced together in that
- 1:02:18time, and first lap at Butters in GT3, I remember there was like a big parking
- 1:02:23lot going uphill, like that was so crazy.
- 1:02:25Like once, once someone crashed, once someone spun and hit each other, and
- 1:02:30it's just a parking lot scene for me.
- 1:02:32Butters, that's so crazy, oh my god.
- 1:02:35I feel bad for putting these girls into Butters, because that was my idea.
- 1:02:41But it's gonna be fun, it's gonna be fun.
- 1:02:44Like one car spawned in top 5, here's the rest of the field
- 1:02:49just a parking lot, yeah.
- 1:02:50Yeah, just stuck, just crazy.
- 1:02:55Yeah, so I will be a beginner on iRacing trying to drive the F4.
- 1:03:00I think in my opinion F4 is, I'm not saying F4 is beginner friendly,
- 1:03:05but um, it's so fun to drive.
- 1:03:07What do you think by the way, Liu?
- 1:03:10Well, I think all formal is they Quite friendly with beginners.
- 1:03:14Uh, I mean like Formula 3, Formula 4.
- 1:03:16Yeah, because a lot of downforce in this car.
- 1:03:18So it's, uh, Forgiving in some places so where like GT cars You know, we can
- 1:03:27see some mistakes with your driving.
- 1:03:29Formals, they're more forgiving, uh, because they're faster.
- 1:03:32They got downforce, so it can rely on downforce of this car.
- 1:03:37So yeah, why not?
- 1:03:38So if you starting that racing, you can try Formal 4 or Formal 3, uh, but.
- 1:03:44Yeah, it has to be, um, a very open code, which can happen because these cars are
- 1:03:48really fast and especially when you go in with a bit different lines for the
- 1:03:53corner, uh, side by side with someone, you have to be aware of this and just leave
- 1:03:58enough space for the car next to you.
- 1:04:01Uh, and also, yeah, just leave enough space because every touch
- 1:04:06can give you big damage to the car.
- 1:04:09So if you damage the front wing, you're going to lose a lot of speed.
- 1:04:12Yeah.
- 1:04:12This is a really important thing for Formulas.
- 1:04:17Yeah, I feel like in Formula, it really teaches you about
- 1:04:19giving space to everyone.
- 1:04:21I think.
- 1:04:22Yeah, really.
- 1:04:23That car is so fragile.
- 1:04:25Like, yeah.
- 1:04:26One little touch, you're losing your front wing or your rear wing.
- 1:04:29Like, yeah, that.
- 1:04:31So be careful, but it's a fun car to drive still, by the way.
- 1:04:34Tasha, if you want.
- 1:04:37I had a crash on Butters.
- 1:04:38One car spun, I hit him, and I went so high I got reset back to Yeah, I think
- 1:04:43the best so when when there's like a parking lot scene and you are stuck
- 1:04:47in it Like I think it's better to just hit the hit the escape button, right?
- 1:04:52Because you're you're cause you're causing a well you're causing a scene right there
- 1:04:57and you cannot go anywhere So yeah, what would you do by the way if you're like
- 1:05:03stuck in the parking lot, for example, like okay crash You cannot go anywhere.
- 1:05:08Did you just hit the escape button back to the plane or you're like
- 1:05:11trying to like Well, it depends on the situation, of course, but what
- 1:05:14if, like, there was, like, a total parking lot, like, yeah, you cannot go.
- 1:05:20Just, you just hit the escape button, and I don't know, if car
- 1:05:25is okay, I would just, uh, would just wait till they go, go ahead.
- 1:05:30Ah, I see, so you're just like Make a space for me.
- 1:05:36Coming through, choo choo!
- 1:05:37Yeah.
- 1:05:39So yeah, if car is okay, you just can stay and chill with everybody
- 1:05:42till people going to move, yeah, and they going to move anywhere.
- 1:05:47Anyway, so yeah Just go.
- 1:05:52Oh here.
- 1:05:53Uh, okay steve got a question So leo as you have driven f4 in real
- 1:05:57life How does the iris in one drive compared to the real one?
- 1:06:01Is the real that sleepy in real life?
- 1:06:04Okay How is it?
- 1:06:08Well that depends on the You know, set up, uh, because in the
- 1:06:12racing got open set and real life.
- 1:06:14We had a fixed set also for everybody.
- 1:06:17I drove it at spunk.
- 1:06:19Um, and it's a punk.
- 1:06:21We had a really high temperatures on track.
- 1:06:23So track temperature was around like 58 Celsius.
- 1:06:29Uh, so tires warm up.
- 1:06:30Pretty fast, but also you could overheat them a little bit and rear,
- 1:06:35um, become a little bit slippy.
- 1:06:38Um, so I can tell that, uh, formal for which we got in a racing as
- 1:06:43that's the same chassis, which I drove in, uh, formal for Southeast Asia.
- 1:06:47That's Mugel, uh, French chassis, uh, for formal for they really close.
- 1:06:54Yeah.
- 1:06:54To what I've felt with this car in real life and how it just, uh,
- 1:06:59driving and how it feels on track.
- 1:07:01So yeah, I think iRacing did an amazing job with this car, definitely.
- 1:07:06Huh, so it's close enough.
- 1:07:08Close enough to how it feels, and Huh, I see.
- 1:07:14I see.
- 1:07:15Huh, interesting.
- 1:07:19They crash well in iRacing, just like in real life.
- 1:07:21Wait, do you guys like crash a lot?
- 1:07:24Not like crash a lot, like a lot.
- 1:07:25I mean, this sounds like a dumb question, but Okay, the type of crash in real
- 1:07:30life, was it like Quite absurd like what happened in simulator or it could
- 1:07:34be like that upset I mean, I saw some crazy video crazy crash on youtube.
- 1:07:39Yes.
- 1:07:39So some of them can be like pretty spectacular, but I think
- 1:07:44you mentioned it earlier, right?
- 1:07:45Like the crash in real life like people don't really like crash like crazy that
- 1:07:50much people people like more careful like not Not like careful, but it's not like
- 1:07:57people like, you know, like it's different of course I think that for formal three
- 1:08:03and formal four, uh, Kind of the same situation as in iRacing because, uh,
- 1:08:09these people, they just come from karting.
- 1:08:11Um, I know they're really hot and, uh, they just, uh, really young.
- 1:08:17Also, you, uh, able to race Formula 4 at 15, 15 years old.
- 1:08:23So that, that's really, um, you know, young people.
- 1:08:28So yeah, I think a lot of spectacular crashes happened
- 1:08:31in the Formal 4 and Formal 3.
- 1:08:33The really dangerous, uh, I had one crash in, uh, Asia Cup series.
- 1:08:37There was Formal BMW.
- 1:08:39So guy, he was like, Maybe 0.
- 1:08:426 behind me, 0.
- 1:08:447 on the last lap.
- 1:08:45He just, uh, uh, did a dive bomb, locked up, uh, on brakes and, uh, crashing
- 1:08:51to me, pushed me out of the track.
- 1:08:55Yeah, this is how it happened.
- 1:08:57So that was crazy.
- 1:08:58That was crazy.
- 1:08:59Oh my God.
- 1:09:00Yeah.
- 1:09:01I mean, I saw some videos like the karting, the karting crash, something
- 1:09:05like that on YouTube, on Instagram.
- 1:09:07Steve just said, said right thing.
- 1:09:10Just you, you touch tire a little bit and you just flying over the car
- 1:09:16or something happened and it, you know, Formula is really dangerous.
- 1:09:20Yeah, it's very dangerous.
- 1:09:21Can we do the same like in video games?
- 1:09:24Oh my god.
- 1:09:26Oh my god.
- 1:09:29Often wheel crashes are crazy, especially when the tires just,
- 1:09:32yeah, the tires touch just, wow.
- 1:09:34Yeah, I saw that.
- 1:09:36Yeah, that's crazy.
- 1:09:38Oh my god, what was the most?
- 1:09:40Okay, this is a question from me to you, Dio.
- 1:09:42What, okay, what was the most memorable race in real life, the
- 1:09:46IRL race that you had in your life?
- 1:09:50Any mem the most memorable one.
- 1:09:53Oh, I remember one race that was, uh, in Formal Masters, we race, uh, Sochi
- 1:09:58Autodrome, um, that's Formal 1 circuit back in days, um, and it was going, uh,
- 1:10:04P3, I know what happened, uh, because, you know, uh, the curbs, uh, on this
- 1:10:11track, they had curbs, and then some, like, sausages, the Uh, so maybe when
- 1:10:18I cut curves, I just touched them a little bit and damaged my front wing.
- 1:10:23Uh, so I was going through the DRS zone that was last lap of the race, uh, was
- 1:10:28going P3 and, I remember that front wing just fell down a little bit and for a
- 1:10:37moment I lost, completely lost the grip from my front tires because they didn't
- 1:10:41touch the, um, the tarmac at this moment, yeah, because here is the front wing,
- 1:10:48uh, just broken in front of the car.
- 1:10:51And I was breaking, um, after the DRS zone, that was the
- 1:10:56longest straight on this track.
- 1:10:58Uh, and I was just praying that, uh, you know, car going to steer into the
- 1:11:02corner or if, if it's not going to steer into the corner, I would just go
- 1:11:07directly to the wall on the last lap.
- 1:11:11And hopefully.
- 1:11:12Hopefully, hopefully in the last moment when I was braking, uh, car started to
- 1:11:17lose the speed and maybe some vibration, uh, returning back the, the front wing to
- 1:11:22the car and it just started to steer into the corner and I got a really fun picture.
- 1:11:29I just crossed the start finish line and, uh, you know, car looks
- 1:11:34like, uh, I'm trying to get away the snow in the winter time.
- 1:11:41With the wrong wing.
- 1:11:43Oh my god, you should share.
- 1:11:45I have to make this funny after this.
- 1:11:47I wanna see.
- 1:11:48Yeah, I can share it.
- 1:11:50I can share it, yeah.
- 1:11:52Formula Plo.
- 1:11:54Oh, by the way, I didn't see your supercar.
- 1:11:55Yeah, that was really fun.
- 1:11:57Yeah, that was memorable.
- 1:11:58Oh my god.
- 1:11:59Oh yeah, I know the Sochi Autodrome.
- 1:12:01That was the, yeah, the formula.
- 1:12:03The formula circuit.
- 1:12:04Oh my god.
- 1:12:06Yeah.
- 1:12:08F4 didn't have Halo when you were racing them, right?
- 1:12:11Or were you?
- 1:12:12Did you get the hello?
- 1:12:16No, we didn't, we didn't have hello.
- 1:12:18We also informal masters.
- 1:12:20I raised in 2015, so that's a taters if a zero 10, you can
- 1:12:26raise this car in a set of course.
- 1:12:28Um, it has a stick gearbox, so that's a like sequential, but with the stick,
- 1:12:35no, with the pedal, pedal shifters.
- 1:12:38It was like, really, really cool.
- 1:12:41Yeah.
- 1:12:41That's really cool.
- 1:12:42Yeah, yeah.
- 1:12:43But you didn't have the Halo.
- 1:12:45Right.
- 1:12:46That's scary because the Halo.
- 1:12:46Yeah, I didn't, didn't have, yeah.
- 1:12:49Yeah.
- 1:12:50Because Halo really saved your life, right?
- 1:12:53Yeah.
- 1:12:54Ah.
- 1:12:56Ha.
- 1:12:56I see.

- 1:14:31Between 3:00 PM or 4:00 PM GMT.
- 1:14:33So are you going to do the some, I don't know, with 13 race or
- 1:14:38what you gonna do in this room?
- 1:14:39I think we're going to race, uh, just week 13's crazy races.
- 1:14:45Oh yeah, like what you did yesterday.
- 1:14:48I was hanging in your chat like yesterday, right?
- 1:14:50Like I was like, yeah, putting back my camera and everything back in place.
- 1:14:57And yeah, so, oops, I dropped my keyboard.
- 1:15:00That's so dumb.
- 1:15:01All right, we got it back.
- 1:15:03So I put my.
- 1:15:06So I put my keyboard here on top of my P818 like this.
- 1:15:10And it's like
- 1:15:13Question.
- 1:15:13Masang or dekorfer?
- 1:15:16I haven't tried it, but it's on my card, so I haven't tried it.
- 1:15:20So Liu, which one?
- 1:15:22Yeah, we tried them yesterday and I can tell that, uh, the Corvette
- 1:15:27for me, because I'm feeling more confident, comfortable on track.
- 1:15:30Uh, we did some testing at Rolls Royce with a Mustang.
- 1:15:34I did one minute, 20 seconds and zero, uh, with the Corvette for
- 1:15:39the second lap, I did 19 and two.
- 1:15:43And then we did 19 and zero.
- 1:15:45So I'm just like one second faster with this car.
- 1:15:48Uh, it feels really, uh, balanced on track.
- 1:15:51I really like it.
- 1:15:52So for me, if we put a scale, so here's like a Ferrari and here's a Porsche 911.
- 1:15:59So Corvette will be somewhere here, uh, closer to Porsche 911,
- 1:16:04uh, which is really good, so it's a, uh, really predictable car.
- 1:16:09You, you, you know, Just rear really, um, you know, not really
- 1:16:17sensitive to make you spin.
- 1:16:19It's really balanced so you can put car into the corner in the right way.
- 1:16:25And yeah, you can be fast and this car is really predictable and nice.
- 1:16:32So it handles better for something.
- 1:16:34Right.
- 1:16:35And Bickel, you like the Mustang more?
- 1:16:37I got both of the car on my cart, so I don't know, I'm just gonna buy both and
- 1:16:42see which one that I like, but yeah.
- 1:16:45Yeah, about Mustang, so we can place Mustang, I think, alongside with Mercedes
- 1:16:49and BMW, and this car definitely will be, um, On the first place for me,
- 1:16:56out of these cars, because I'm not really, um, confident in BMW every, I
- 1:17:02don't know, is it me, is it only me, or maybe you're feeling the same, but
- 1:17:06every time getting into BMW, that's like you, um, I know you're jumping from the
- 1:17:11Porsche cup car to BMW GT3, and you're like driving the big American track.
- 1:17:18Oh, I see, I see, I get what you mean, right, right.
- 1:17:21Yeah, just really weird, maybe, sitting position, or just how the cockpit
- 1:17:26builds, so just, uh, yeah, give me the feeling that I'm really high in
- 1:17:30this car, sitting, and, uh, that's Uh, completely like turned around all my
- 1:17:37feelings of the tracks and everything.
- 1:17:41Ah, I see.
- 1:17:41Right.
- 1:17:43But we could like it there.
- 1:17:45We could like the Mustang more.
- 1:17:47I feel like I love the BMW.
- 1:17:49Don't get me wrong.
- 1:17:50I like the, I don't know why this is so weird, and it's just my thing.
- 1:17:53I think I, I like the BMW in a CC, it's super fun, but I am not a
- 1:18:00big fan of BMW in everything yet.
- 1:18:04For me, it feels like drafting a book.
- 1:18:07American classic, better sound than handling.
- 1:18:10Better sound than handling.
- 1:18:12And we also got some new tracks, right?
- 1:18:16How many, how many new tracks do, do we got?
- 1:18:20Uh, we got, uh, One Speedway, Navarre Circuits, and I
- 1:18:26think another one, Circuit.
- 1:18:29Yeah, Navarre is, uh, kind of fun.
- 1:18:31I really like this, uh, this track.
- 1:18:33This track is free in iRacing, um, which is also good because many
- 1:18:38rookie people, uh, new people in iRacing go on to drive this track.
- 1:18:42Uh, it has really a nice flow, reminds me of, uh, Fuji together
- 1:18:48with maybe Suzuka and, um, so yeah, it's, it's more like Suzuka for me.
- 1:18:55So this track is really good.
- 1:18:57I see.
- 1:18:58Uh uh.
- 1:18:59Yeah, I, by far, I'm only planning on buying cars.
- 1:19:06I'm not planning to get some track, I don't know.
- 1:19:09We'll see.
- 1:19:10Cause, I don't know, lately we've been having like so many new tracks, we had,
- 1:19:14I only raced like, I don't know, three weeks in total in iRacing this season.
- 1:19:18I feel like season two is like my kind of part time iRacer era kind
- 1:19:23of thing, you know what I mean?
- 1:19:24Yeah.
- 1:19:27Which is the MotoGP track?
- 1:19:29Which one is the MotoGP?
- 1:19:32Question for you.
- 1:19:33Um, Navarro Circuit, so that's Spain, uh, Spain track, yeah.
- 1:19:38So they race, I think they race MotoGP here.
- 1:19:41I think, as I'm aware, yeah.
- 1:19:47Oh, yeah, Zaxxon Ring, we also got Zaxxon Ring.
- 1:19:51Oh, yeah, I'm looking at it now.
- 1:19:53Ooh, what track is that?
- 1:19:57Oh, in German.
- 1:19:58Oh, okay, okay.
- 1:20:00Yeah.
- 1:20:01Have you tried this one?
- 1:20:03No, I didn't try.
- 1:20:04Oh, I see.
- 1:20:06Huh.
- 1:20:08Interesting.
- 1:20:12Interesting, huh.
- 1:20:14But as I've driven it more, I do like the handling.
- 1:20:18I don't like how loose the rear car can get though.
- 1:20:22I see.
- 1:20:27Okay, is it worth it to buy a Bicol?
- 1:20:30Are we going to have like so many race at this track next season?
- 1:20:34Because I don't mind doing some road, you know I don't mind doing some
- 1:20:37road especially if we are having nis in road course like 10 out of 10
- 1:20:40i'm doing it Rico I'm doing it I'm doing it So are you doing some nis?
- 1:20:49Or not really you're not really into it the nis
- 1:20:53Oh, what sorry the are you doing some nis the nascar iracing series Ah,
- 1:21:00Nascarra Racing Series, uh, well, maybe, maybe we're going to do some of them.
- 1:21:06Yeah, because I really enjoy, uh, Coke 600 and, uh, probably
- 1:21:12we'll do some other races as well.
- 1:21:15Oh, I see.
- 1:21:15But you're not like, want to do it like every week, every week.
- 1:21:19Uh, no, no, definitely.
- 1:21:21So I'm just, uh, you know, I'm doing Arca, Gen 4, Xfinity, Next Gen sometimes,
- 1:21:27sometimes that's Nascar racing series.
- 1:21:30So yeah, I'm basically doing everything.
- 1:21:32I want to really want to do street stocks because we got Two additional Street
- 1:21:38Stalks, which looks really, really cool.
- 1:21:41I want to try them.
- 1:21:43I saw that one.
- 1:21:44I saw that one yesterday.
- 1:21:46Yeah, that's same like me, like, I do whatever I like.
- 1:21:50You know, for like, this, this, this, this.
- 1:21:52Not like, not like, I want to do NIS.
- 1:21:55Every week, I don't know, I can't.
- 1:21:57I'm working too, sometimes I'm like, gone for the weekend.
- 1:22:01So it's not like I can do like a lot, a lot of NIS.
- 1:22:06The Super Stalks are great.
- 1:22:08Oh, is it?
- 1:22:09I haven't tried it.
- 1:22:10Yeah, just trying to do, you know, races, which I enjoy,
- 1:22:14which I'm where I'm having fun.
- 1:22:16Yeah.
- 1:22:18If, if that's a like championship, uh, which I'm doing.
- 1:22:21So this is for example, either a club sports series.
- 1:22:24Yeah.
- 1:22:24Here's, we got like, uh, races every two weeks.
- 1:22:26So yeah, I'm doing the whole championship here, but, uh, for officials, um,
- 1:22:33that's more to have fun, to have fun with the chat on the stream
- 1:22:37and on the racing track as well.
- 1:22:39Exactly, that's what I'm doing in every official.
- 1:22:42I'm just having fun.
- 1:22:43I'm just having, I cannot, I cannot wait to get back on streaming, really, like,
- 1:22:48chilling, doing some silly officials.

- 1:23:02go to Sonoma because we'll be having the NASCAR at Sonoma this weekend.
