Un simdriver in una vera World Sprint Car...

Il team di Virtual2Reality ha tentato un esperimento molto particolare: portare un pilota virtuale di iRacing come il 17enne Alex Bergeron, in una gara vera su una World Sprint Car reale! Correte a questo link per scoprire com'è andata a finire...

We learned that there is a tremendous value for virtual racing as it has taught Alex so much about Race Craft. This was very important as the 1500 or so races online, combined with countless practice laps have placed Alex in many situations that could and would occur on the real race tracks. In one of the videos tagged in this you’ll see how Alex instinctively used the throttle to avoid a wreck instead of the panic brake option. This came from avoiding so many incidents online and it was a second nature reaction. He came in with so much awareness about every aspect of racing than your normal rookie. His understanding of the car’s handling tendencies was far beyond anyone’s knowledge who would be climbing into a race car for their first time. This same set of knowledge was also applicable to changing the driving style or turn entry to be able to roll the chassis to the outside drive wheel.
