I switched to the 2019 Porsche, which is arguably on the other end of the behaviour spectrum. I figured it might be due to the car I was driving, since the Aston is one of the more well-behaved cars. This got me thinking: this wasn’t the deep simulation I had come to love. I quickly adapted my braking spots, and managed to set a time below 2:20, in which I succeeded after just six laps.Īfter some more laps in a second sessions, I was even able to break into the 2:18‘s. This encouraged me to power through the initial hurdle. Still, I was surprised when my first lap was a 2:22.578, as can be seen above, even more because this is only five seconds slower than my fastest ever lap around Spa. Due to the different camera angle, I had to re-learn my braking points. First ImpressionĪt first, my biggest concern was getting used to the chase camera and the new perspective this brings. The results, even after my first lap, were… discomforting. I started ACC and took the Aston Martin Vantage V8 for a spin on Spa. For full context, this gamepad has some minor ghosting on the left joystick. However, encouraged by their results, I took the plunge and fired up my trusty old X360 gamepad. I always assumed that driving with anything other than a wheel was total madness. Lately I’ve been seeing more and more people who I consider to be very quick drivers come out and state they are driving with a gamepad. A lot has changed since then, so keep that in mind while reading this post. I think this is a genuine question, which I want to pose in order to start a discussion, and hopefully trigger a reaction and/or explanation from physics master Aris.ĭisclaimer 2: This post was written in january 2020. Disclaimer: I’m not trying to start a flame war, and I do not think gamepad users are lesser in any way.
