Are you just mindlessly driving around in a racing simulator?

While it's true you can memorize the course, your actual driving skills might end up being worse.

So, this time, we'll focus on how to use the simulator in a unique way and how to apply that to real-life driving. (Using a ZN6 Toyota 86 in Assetto Corsa)

First, drive at a comfortable pace to check how much grip and track width you'll be using, and then gradually increase your pace.

Lap 1: 2 minutes 17 seconds, Lap 2: 13 seconds. Using the experience gained so far, you can further increase your pace and consolidate your times: Lap 3: 11.9 seconds, Lap 4: 10.8 seconds, achieving times comparable to a real car with radial tires.

From here, try to improve further, make mistakes, and correct them... the simulator is effective for practicing the "process of improving your lap times."

Another feature is that you can stop and carefully examine the scenery, such as the braking point, without worrying about other cars.

Playing replays of your successful laps or exemplary driving, changing the camera angle, and slowing down the footage to "shadow" your own driving is a practice method unique to simulators.

Practicing in a simulator in ways that aren't possible in real driving yields far greater results than simply repeating laps.
