Improving Your Sim Racing Racecraft | Ultimate Guide to Racecraft: Part 1

Lapping solo in sims is challenging enough, but when you head online to test your skills against other people the difficulty level ramps up another notch. And one of the key skills that will help you achieve better results is racecraft. In part one of our guide to racecraft, John talks us through the vagaries of this important esports skill, offering tips on how to pick your moment to overtake as well as some of the BTCC-style ‘dark arts’ of overtaking... Being a great hot lapper isn’t so important if you lose several positions while attempting an overtake during a race, so brushing up on your racecraft can be the difference between a bad result and good one. At the top level of esports, where nearly everyone is on the same incredible pace, racecraft becomes an even more important factor. One slip in concentration can lead to several lost positions. So, if you’re just starting out on your online esports journey or if you’re an experienced racer needing a refresher, our guide will get you flying up the grid in no time. 00:00 - Introduction 00:31 - Defining Racecraft 00:59 - The "Racing" Line 02:24 - Use Your Eyes 03:18 - Overtaking 06:59 - Psychological Warfare ------------------------ Join us on Discord:   / discord   Read More on Traxion.gg: https://www.traxion.gg Subscribe on YouTube:    / traxiongg   Follow us on Twitch:   / traxiongg   Follow us on Twitter:   / traxiongg   Follow us on Instagram:   / traxiongg   Like us on Facebook:   / traxiongg   #Traxion #Racecraft #SimRacingTips
