Race Report IMSA Interlagos Race Two
Race
The race was great fun and I managed to work my way up to sixth position after the first couple of corners by getting a good jump on the rolling start.
Throughout the race I was in a hard battle with Erno Feszl, Valery Vodchits, Artem Grabow and Timothy Hargreaves all through to the pit stop phase of the race.
After the pit stop phase I was a number of seconds off the pace as I had a slow get away from the pit box.
By the end of the race I finished in sixth position and gained some more points towards the championship.

Race Report - IMSA Interlagos
Qualifying
Qualifying was really solid with a seventh position and sitting half a second from pole position.
Race
The race didn't get off to the best of starts with being rear ended by Giovanni Woodall on the second last corner leading onto the fast outer straight. There was a good sign of sportsmanship by Giovanni by waiting for me to rejoin before continuing his race.
The laps leading upto to the compulsory pitstop had myself and Giovanni locked in a tight battle with Giovanni gaining position a few laps out from my pitstop.
Afeter the pitstop phase of the race, I rejoined in front of Giovanni and we continued our epic battle right upto the checkured flag with Giovanni taking position on the last lap.
Overall I am happy with sixth position and the gaining off some vital iRating and enough safety rating to now qualify for a Class A license.

Virtual Racing School Review - How to Practice More Efficiently
Features Of VRS
Without a doubt the best feature of the VRS Software is the ability to sign up for data packs. Depending on your membership level (more on this later) you will have access to data packs from some of the top iRacing drivers in most of the popular competitions on iRacing.
Each of these data packs contains the following:
- Setup file
- .blap and .olap file which can be used to create a ghost car for private test sessions in iRacing
- A sector by sector lap analysis which allows you to watch the drivers line, gear, speed, brake and throttle applications
- Telemetry to compare your laps against the drivers laps and a breakdown of which sectors you can improve the most time in.
Data Logger and Comparison
The VRS Software saves and tracks your data on a track by track and session by session basis. This give you the opportunity to see how your improving your lap times over time. Just make sure when you are practicing you are practicing in the same conditions as the driver you are comparing your lap to. As differences in track temp and have a big effect on lap times.
Stats, Stats And More Stats
With the Virtual Racing School Software, it will track all of your race history and will show you different trends overtime. This will allow you to see which specific skill you can improve on.
Get Help from The Virtual Race Engineer and Virtual Coach
The virtual race engineer included within the Virtual Racing School software analyses your telemetry data and provides good feedback to show areas in which you can improve your lap times.
The virtual coach will analyses your historical data and come up with an individual training program that can help you maximize your potential and create a more effective training regime.
When Virtual Does Not Cut It - Try A Real-Life Coach
With the real coach option you can browse through a number of drivers and choose the coach that suits you and request 1 on 1 session in which the coach can give you pointers and maximize your potential.
Run A Team No Worries
VRS allows team drivers to share their telemetry and setups to be able to help out their teammates and to make your team more competitive in competition.
My Thoughts
I have been using the Virtual Racing School solidly the last couple of iRacing Seasons as I don’t always have the time to do car setups each week. I find the data sets with the car setups and hotlap videos are one of the best features of the software. Especially now they have data packs for just about every race class in iRacing.
I did have some issues at various stages with the telemetry logger causing freezing at the end of each sector when testing and racing. I think this is mainly due to the lack of performance from my storage drive. After I created a RAM Disk the issue disappeared.
I have not tried the one on one coaching as my internet connection won’t be up to the task of streaming. From all reports, other racers that have used the coaching think it is great.
I feel the software is a great addition for racers that don’t have time or want to worry about iRacing setups and just want a good setup to get them started. The lap videos are a great addition to show the ideal line and gear for each corner.
I highly recommend this software. To view their pricing structure visit the VRS Website.
