Hi Everybody,

The short answer is through Jake's GPLaps youtube channel.

I re-engaged with sim racing during the Covid lock-downs when some the real-life racing such as V8 Supercars temporally switched to sim racing as their plan B for the season.  then discovered  just how much sim racing technology had advanced since i last were playing sim racing games in the late 1990s with Microposes GrandPrix 2 including editing tracks and cars, before my life got to busy elsewhere and had to stop.  Then discovered Jake's excellent GPLaps channel which i have been actively following for the past few years.  

I am yet to set up a sim rig, as i need to acquire a good PC and the right gear. but i have plans to do so and aim to classic historical racing some soon. but until then i am a fascinated spectator. I love the concept of historical racing thru sim racing, and being able to relive those glorious tracks and cars that is otherwise not possible in real life today, anymore. I relished Jake's HRRC series last year Smile

I am from the Bathurst region of Australia.  Been regularly going to Mt Panorama since the mid 1970s sometimes assisting my brother with the recovery team. As well as F1 at Albert Park in Melbourne.  i regularly involved with my uncle Glen who owns the Peter Brock 28c XU-1 Holden Torana that won the Bathurst 500 in 1972, and his son Dean (my cousin) who competes in State Hillclimb champs. He is currently champ winner again this year.  


Cheers

Hi Gazz,

Thanks for joining us! Think I'm subscribed to your Youtube channel...good stuff!

Look forward to seeing you on track when you get set up with a rig!

Like many here I heard about HSO through GPLaps, and thoroughly enjoy the content Jake produces. I've been growing tired of iRacing throughout 2023, the lack of proper weather and no tyre management means I've tried ACC a little more, but also looking further afield.
