![]() It won't get rid of the fear, but it'll hopefully teaches your brain to adjust the fear better instead of simple freaking out at 250 km/h no matter how calm the car is in reality.Īre there "taxi drives" available and hopefully not too expensive for you? The less cockpit and the higher the top speed, the better. In Assetto Corsa, you could use something like a 90's F1. Not a gt3, but a lmp2 or 1 or even better: open wheel cars! I'd say drive the track with a faster car. Since you're in VR, speed looks kinda accurate. Now my question is: is there a way I can use the simulator to mentally train for the speed? I'm looking for a mental training approach to close the gap between sim and real life, so that the next time I'll feel more confident to push the throttle with less fear. Unfortunately this is not possible (at least for me), it's too expensive (fuel, brakes, tires, track expenses and insurance) reason why I've built the simulator because, although I know a simulator is not as real life, I wanted to train to get better. ![]() My feeling was that the only way I could improve was to stay there on the track, spend a ton of money on fuel, brakes, tires and make a ton of laps over and over and over slightly increasing the speed at each lap and do it for days. and the main reason was due a fact I couldn't expect or simulate: fear! At 220km/h I didn't have the confidence (and the guts) to go faster. The simulator really helped me to know well the track, to properly use my own gears (my GT4 has PDK) rather than using automatic, so I think that the sim helped me to grow on this, BUT while I was doing 2:00 on the sim, on the real track I was doing 2:20. Now, just a few days ago I've been to the Imola track, a track I really love and a track I've used a lot in the simulator with the same GT4 car. I've also built the simulator of my dreams (Varjo Aero VR, D-BOX actuators, simucube 2 DD wheel, great pedals, simXperience GS5 seat etc.) with the idea of getting better at driving on the road and on a track, and to get confidence. I have a Porsche GT4 which I use for weekend driving and a few track days a year. I'm a simracing passionate and a car lover.
