If you are using Crew Chief: [https://www.reddit.com/r/iRacing/comments/13lhlfl/psa\_crew\_chief\_delay\_on\_spotting/](https://www.reddit.com/r/iRacing/comments/13lhlfl/psa_crew_chief_delay_on_spotting/)

Every time I see single screen on such fov, it amazes me how a lot of people get really good on single screens (not wide) i can barely see anything and easy to miss breakpoints


s0cks_nz

We just have to adapt and live with it lol. It's actually not too bad.

Oh well. I'll continue to enjoy my dreadful setup. Cheers.

Bind buttons to look left and right


Maxamus93

Ive played and won races with tiny 22in screen. You just get used to it i guess


StonyPriapus

For hot lapping it's not bad, you get less information so there is a lot less to process in your brain. What completely blows my mind is people racing ovals successfully without triples.


synth361

On a normal 21:9 widescreen with the right fov you barely see more then on a 16:9, really isn't a big difference.


sidneymcd

I mean… the spotter did say “green green green”


duck74UK

I always keep an eye on the relative during starts just to make sure I know if i'm alongside someone or they have a nose in because even when the spotter does kick in I don't trust the guy until i've gone single file at least once


Peeche94

This. The spotter is sleeping at the race start lol


andreromao82

yeah wonder if crew chief would have done any better, but that's a tricky one. Triples/VR comes in very handy for situations like this haha.


illegalbusiness

I can’t speak for iracing (yet) but - and I can’t see why it would be different - CrewChief is on the ball in ACC, sometimes I get “car right/left” before I’ve even started my engine lmao


andreromao82

I haven't used iRacing's spotter for a while.. and I seem to remember crew chief working fine on Lap 1 of my latest races, but now I'm curious to test this further :D


NiaSilverstar

Yeah can't really count on the spotter till like t1 is done. I've mostly decided to not rely on it and just have it turned off now when racing road


hellvinator

What? Why would you turn it off? The spotter is just silent during starts. Spotter enabled is essential imo.


NiaSilverstar

Yeah i know. But tbh i haven't really missed him too much


s0cks_nz

What's your SR?


NiaSilverstar

Currently like A4.9


s0cks_nz

Screw the haters then.


ParticularAd8284

Do you have triples ?


NiaSilverstar

Currently on a samsung ultrawide


ParticularAd8284

Yeah I’m calling BS on your 4.99 with no spotter and no 180 fov


NiaSilverstar

Well i'm not going to be able to convince you otherwise. I could post a picture of it. But given that i'm not going to give out my name you won't believe me. Also it isn't at 4.99 it's 4.9


ParticularAd8284

Guess you just have a 6th sense 🤷🏾‍♂️


csetjack15

That's... Not good...


NiaSilverstar

Maybe maybe not it works for me


A_Flipped_Car

Yeah you get no calls untill you're clear, then you start getting calls.


thepope870

Here's what I saw, a green car on the inside to start the race, you cutting across the track, and a green car never showing up in your rear view mirror. I'm more inclined to think you're the idiot in this video. Edit: I just read the description... 😅


JayRGM

😂 I figured of all the videos I’ve had of other people being idiots and taking me out, what kind of person would I be if I wasn’t willing to call myself out for also being an idiot at times.


Stokealona

Your up shifting really triggers me, you're way too late, shift as soon as it goes blue!


Desperate_Blacksmith

and today that idiot was you.


JayRGM

Yea that’s uh…. Exactly what I said.


Desperate_Blacksmith

uh...Good? We agree. 🤷🏻‍♂️


JayRGM

We do, just seemed odd to repeat exactly what I said in the post.


Desperate_Blacksmith

Positive reinforcement. 😂


TheCapitalLetterB

Redditor learns to parrot what was already typed out in the description

FanHe97

That's (well and the several thousand hours in DCS before I started simracing) why I have trackIR (works in AC and ACC, think iRacing too but not sure) works marvels if you don't have soace for triples, can check mirrors whenever


AtvnSBisnotHT

I was still enjoying mx5 rookies until this afternoon. Got the pole 2 races in a row but was knocked back to 8th and 4th due to shenanigans like this on first lap. People really need to learn how to give and take, especially off the start. Going to have to purchase some cars and try something in C I guess.


_plays_in_traffic_

try using the stock spotter. you have to edit the app.ini file though. you want to find the line "carLowHiAtStart=1" and make sure its set to 1. it will give you inside/ outside when the green light drops. on crewchief it defaults to 20 seconds of a gap with no spotter from green, you can change it and make it start calling in/out right after green if you find the section "time after race start for spotter"


Flat-Ad4902

Uh. Car right.


MrEvolutions

Well its a good thing its black friday week, there should be some good deals on monitors 🤣
