your tip on ABS and using max 80% brake power is gold.
-
I just bought a Miata IRL and I'm watching this 😅
-
2 years later and this is still sound advice. Great stuff
-
Good tips. Started a couple weeks ago and there's a lot to learn before I can break out of the bottom 10% 😅
-
Appreciate this dave, looooong story short, just bought a Moza R9, iracing for a year and 200 quid on my fav tracks and cars, and was stuck in rookies for a fortnight using the Mx-5 that cost 3 quid.
-
awesome. found this video by mistake ^^ Just yesterday on the Nordschleife we were guessing for the best revs to shift. And that Breaking stuff i found out by myself while "cruising" behind others. Thanks for that Dave.

Thanks Dave for the tips .👍

My tip is.. if you have a large ish screen... extend the field of view to include your left mirror. Greater sense of speed and good for judging width of car.
-
Great video Dave. Thanks.
-
Hi Mr DC ☺ I'm still do MX5 in UK league. Great racing great community. 👍🏾
-
I didn't even realize the MX-5 had ABS, mind blown. I thought it just had weak brakes. I come from games where I turn off all assists from day one. I assumed ABS in iRacing was something you needed to turn on, or maybe I saw "braking assist" in the settings and misunderstood it as ABS?
-
So damn useful, even at 1500 irating (7months) I learned so much. 😲 Thanks Dave! 🙏
-
Great content, thank you
-
Thank you so much for the braking part and shifting at 7000
-
Thanks for the video, you got my sub
-
I learned how to race formula Vee and enjoyed it so much more than mx5. For me it seems like people try to crash u less in vee because they know they are dead too after that. In every mx5 race the overdefensive guy i overtake after few rounds starts hitting me
