00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:56.400
Yeah, can't play, yeah, he can't play GT7 anymore because of all you fuckers in your leagues.
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:57.280

Uh, well, we got we got a new season of uh the Naughty Racing League uh coming up.
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:26.000
What a new season eight?
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:31.680
Yeah, yeah, we we've done this thing seven times, and here here comes the eighth, man.
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:33.520
It's uh it's surreal.
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:34.639
Alright, time flat.
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:40.319
How many so so question is how many new people have you signed up?
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:42.240
Because there's already a ton of people.
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:43.680
How many new people have you?
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.039
Uh quite a few.
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.759
Uh I don't have the exact number in front of me.
00:02:49.919 --> 00:03:03.520
Actually, I'm scanning through uh the the driver list on McNaughty.gg right now, and I can point out uh I'm gonna say about ten new names that uh have not signed up before.
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:05.840
I feel like it's deeper.
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:13.039
I was gonna say, would two of them be one be Jimbo and one is Hovercraft?
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:15.280
Yes, though those are two.
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:16.960
Alright, two on the chat.
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:19.280
Jeffrey's signed up also.
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:28.479
Oh yeah, so uh two of them, and then uh there are some names that I haven't seen before.
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:30.800
Uh Dad and Son RX.
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.280
Uh they got signed up.
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:35.680
Uh let's see who else here.
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:39.120
Uh Florinoda, he's new, and Dorfin is new as well.
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:44.080
So and there are a couple drivers that um, oh, VIP Doodle, he's new.
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:53.680
And um there are a couple drivers that you know have have been away for a bit, such as like uh Tuzinbox, for example, he he was away for a little bit.
00:03:53.919 --> 00:04:04.159
Um and let's see, there's some drivers that are trying again that didn't make the uh pre-qualifying cut, like Superfun Happy, he's back.
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.560
Um yeah, so there's uh there's quite a mix here.
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:14.080
Jorge has officially signed up as well, so he's trying to become the first three-time champion.
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:17.839
Wow.
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:18.560
Well, we'll see.
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:20.480
Do we have history can be made?
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:31.199
Do we have any do we have any previous champions that may not have raced for a while in the league that might be coming back?
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:38.480
Uh in Division A, uh we haven't seen the signups yet.
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:39.360
Oh yeah.
00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:41.199
So nothing nothing's in stone yet.
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:47.680
We're seriously hoping Division A was gonna bring in some of the big guys.
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:48.319
Yeah.
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:50.720
Well, I mean, there's still plenty of time, right?
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:51.920
Oh, yeah, there's a lot of things.
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:59.439
This sign up period is like longer than you know all the previous uh sign-up periods, right?
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:01.759
It was almost like a month, right?
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:10.800
It opened on uh I think Friday, August 14th, and uh it closes on on September 13th.
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:14.240
So it's like almost a full month uh for people to sign up.
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:21.519
And uh, you know, to have what 40 something drivers signed up already is uh pretty crazy.
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:22.800
That's a good sign.
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:24.639
That's a good sign, yeah.
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:29.279
So you know And I heard uh the entry fees a little bit more.
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:31.120
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:37.759
So that that was uh one of the the many tweaks uh that that we made for season eight.
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:59.360
Um you know there there is there is an increase in in the entry fee uh as well as you know some administrative costs on my side that that are kind of prompting the change, uh web hosting, server hosting, Discord Nitro, things things like that that like uh you know kind of need to be paid for.
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:04.079
I can't sustain it alone.
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:07.519
Um it's the same thing.
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:16.879
We know, I mean, with the show, we can't we can't keep paying out as as much as Sean does for the most part to keep the show going.
00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:20.720
That's why we had to start asking for people to help out.
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:29.120
And we have uh, as per usual, great fans that have donated, crazy people that have donated twice.
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:34.160
You know, and we appreciate you.
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:42.160
We appreciate and and we understand that there are costs to doing what you're doing, and a lot and a lot of costs.
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:42.959
It's not cheap.
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:55.040
No, we're also doing no, no, and then you know, also with that, you know, like you know, it's not like it's not like okay, you know, we're increasing the the the entry fee and I'm just gonna take it.
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:59.040
It's you know also an increase in the the prize pool, right?
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:03.600
Uh you know, all of our sponsors from season seven are returning.
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:04.720
So thank you.
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:06.800
Thank you to you guys for PGP.
00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:09.120
You know, re upping up with us.
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:10.319
Welcome.
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:13.839
And uh, you know, we're working on adding a couple more as well.
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.399
So uh that that should also help.
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:22.399
Um but nothing finalized yet, but just in the talks with the you know a couple other entities.
00:07:23.040 --> 00:08:00.480
And uh, you know, there are some new changes uh you know under the hood that's going to enhance you know the ability for you know, well, Jimbo, you joined this season, but you know, who maybe Coach Mike, if you're gonna be the race engineer, there's uh there's a a project that I'm working on to help you be able to more efficiently race engineer, as well as uh a couple little doodads that you might see in the uh in the broadcast that that are you know really pushing the limits of you know what can be presented uh in a GT7 league.
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:04.720
So you know definitely stay tuned for that stuff.
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:06.560
I'm excited.
00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:10.560
We're hoping to get Mike signed up and be driving.
00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:11.839
We're hoping to get Mike signed up.
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:17.839
I'm just checking on scheduling stuff just to ensure that I can participate properly.
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:20.560
Gotcha, gotcha.
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.279
So when does the season officially kick off?
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.279
When is the first race?
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:34.639
Yeah, so the pre-qualifying round is that uh 17th and 18th of uh of September.
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:36.960
Uh that's a Friday and a Saturday.
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:45.120
So so for your for your viewers who aren't familiar with NRL, that does not mean that you race on Friday and then you race again on Saturday.
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:50.639
The way that NRL is broken up is that there are two regular seasons.
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:54.240
There's like a Friday regular season and a Saturday regular season, right?
00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:04.000
And depending on what day you choose to compete, you go through pre-qualifying, and if you get past pre-qualifying, then you go through rounds one through four.
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:19.840
And then at the end of round four, uh you're compared to the people in the same division as you on the other day, and then the top 14, regardless of each day, compete on November 14th for that division's championship.
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:26.480
And I alluded to divisions, and the way that you're placed into divisions is how you perform in the pre-qualifying round.
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:43.120
So with a little ask to risk, right, the top 14 drivers on your day in the pre-qualifying round, the top 14 times I should say, are division A, the next 14 are division B, and then everybody else is unfortunately eliminated.
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:52.159
And if you're eliminated, the money that you pay via PayPal or your debit card or whatever, however you pay for it on McNaughty.gg, whether it's gifted, right?
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.399
Like if you have somebody sponsoring you, right, there's functionality in there for that too.
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.240
They'll get their money back.
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.360
Um, so it's it's a no-risk.
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:08.080
Uh if you don't make it past pre-qualifying, you know, you get to watch like uh the rest of us.
00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:21.759
Um and uh yeah, once you're in your division, then you go through those rounds, and then at the end of round four, you make you make or you don't make the final, and then depending on how you do in the final, you become that division's champion or not.
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.159
Um in a nutshell.
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:33.039
Well, I I will say this the only way you lose out is by not being fast enough.
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:33.919
Yep.
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:35.279
That is correct.
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:37.600
You know, you just you pride.
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.559
You lose pride for not being able to make the league.
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.879
So what is the uh car and track for qualifying?
00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:58.320
Okay, we're we're starting it off with uh high stakes at uh, well, maybe not as high stakes with this uh new update, but uh Dragon Trail Seaside uh in the Toyota FT1 group three car.
00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:00.639
Uh 25-minute qualifier.
00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.840
Uh I think it's three times uh tire, two times fuel.
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:04.559
Do I have that right?
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:06.799
Let me pull it up here on McNaughty.gg.
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:08.799
Yeah, three times tire, two times fuel.
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:11.120
Starting fuel is 25 liters.
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:12.639
Uh so you have plenty of time.
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:17.600
Oh, and you cannot reset to the tits, so it's like real life.
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.600
Uh but you have plenty of time to set that one golden lap.
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:25.440
And uh, you know, it's all online.
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:37.200
You know, there'll be a couple splits, and then at the end of the Friday broadcast, we'll know who moves on to you know each division and who who unfortunately goes home, and then we do it all again on Saturday afternoon.
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:39.360
Is there a slipstream?
00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:41.919
No, no slipstream.
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:43.600
Good, good.
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:44.000
Okay, yeah.
00:11:44.159 --> 00:11:44.799
I just wanted to double.
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:52.879
It's literally individual like strategy planning for setting your lap and then putting the lap best lap down.
00:11:52.960 --> 00:12:04.159
And you know, the reason why now we're we're we're setting the starting fuel load to low so that way it's not a okay, you're going through this whole thing for 25 minutes and it's all about the last lap.
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:07.440
So you set your fastest right at the start if you want.
00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:09.440
Right, right.
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.600
So, you know, your fastest lap can come at any time.
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.320
And you know, yeah.
00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:21.919
Um I think it it should uh set the fireworks off uh early.
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:28.720
Um but yeah, there are definitely some uh combos uh coming up that uh oh yeah, that's the other thing about NRL.
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:34.399
You don't know the combo that you're going to do next until the end of the round that you're currently in.
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:38.960
So you know, pre-qualifying, we all know that information.
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:41.279
Everybody has forever to practice, right?
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:52.799
You still have like a month to get it situated, and then uh you find out what round one is on that Friday at the end of the broadcast, and then you have two weeks to prepare.
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:56.159
Ooh, yeah, yeah.
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:57.440
Ooh, I got a question.
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:05.279
Okay, so since I can't be eliminated, is there gonna be um a certain time I can set my quality?
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:10.720
Because I'm gonna I leave out of town on that Friday, and I'm gonna be gone.
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:12.799
Yeah, so oh yeah, yeah.
00:13:12.960 --> 00:13:20.639
So um for people who uh have a a conflict uh with with pre-qualifying, right?
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:25.840
And uh you can you can set your time earlier.
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:26.399
Okay.
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:35.679
Um so you know, it could open up a lobby on the Wednesday or the Thursday or something like that for people who can't uh participate, and you can set your time there.
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.240
Uh it'll be compared against everyone else.
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:41.519
It's uh not kept under lock and key.
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:47.200
It's also not you know you know broadcasted out to you know the world.
00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:53.600
So if somebody finds out about it, they find out about it, but it, you know, I'm not I'm not going out of my way to do either or right.
00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:54.639
They may find out anything.
00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:55.759
Yeah.
00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:59.200
I just need to set a quick time just to put it in there.
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.840
But so yeah, I mean you're trying to get to the Vision A this time around.
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:05.840
Yeah, I tried to try it a couple weeks ago.
00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:07.279
Yeah, I'm gonna try.
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:11.200
We'll see what happens though, with these new physics and stuff like that.
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:14.399
But we'll give it a shot for sure.
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:16.320
But we'll see what happens.
00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:24.720
Yeah, I'm just um just actually reading through the list of things.
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:27.759
Um I'm excited.
00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:30.320
I'm also worried, you know.
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:32.559
Don't be worried, you'll make it.
00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:39.919
I don't I don't want to be one of the slow guys, and I don't want to somehow come out of nowhere and be at the bottom of A either.
00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:44.399
That's yeah, I mean, I guess we're too worried.
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:49.440
I have the nylon ground.
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:52.480
Yeah, miracle lap.
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:54.399
Get the miracle line up.
00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:00.320
And I'm like, wow, I got the fastest lap in this qualifying crap, you know.
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:05.200
That's I don't think that's gonna happen.
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:18.960
But so NRL tends to have you know races where like you know, doing the right strategy, you know, makes a huge difference.
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:22.240
And I had a I had a feedback survey at the end of the season.
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:25.279
So I have a feedback survey at the end of every season, right?
00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:29.200
Or the past couple seasons I've started doing it, but like it'll continue.
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:37.759
And uh you know, people give their feedback anonymously, and some people choose to remain not anonymous about it and you know, give their feedback.
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:50.879
And what I try to do is like you know, take all these points uh constructively and try to figure out a you know a middle ground, because like for every suggestion, there's someone suggesting like the opposite, right?
00:15:51.279 --> 00:16:06.240
So like, for example, like I had someone like suggest like you know, oh we need to we need to have like more sprint races where like you know we could just full out like try really hard and not worry about strategy at all, right?
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:23.360
And then there's uh you know another you know response that says you know we need more strategy, like we you know, we can't have any races that you know we're we're doing a a sprint and you know just pushing it out, you know, pushing our foot down to the floor like the entire race.
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:26.159
So like you know, how do I you know reconcile that?
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:32.960
And I think that what what you'll end up seeing here is like a mixture of different types of things, right?
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:40.240
So like there may be a race where you know it's like okay, I'm just gonna push for X amount of laps, right?
00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:46.080
And you know, I just better have like the fastest lap time possible because that's what it's gonna come down to.
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:51.279
There may be races where you know there's strategy, oh, do I do a one-stop, a two-stop?
00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:53.440
Or you know, what tire do I go on?
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:54.960
There's obviously gonna be rain.
00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:56.080
We know how that goes here.
00:16:56.240 --> 00:16:56.960
Oh yeah.
00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:08.640
So uh, you know, so there's gonna be races like that, and you know, there, you know, I don't want to wanna like give away too much, but like there's gonna be you know, weeks that you're thinking about different types of things.
00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:17.440
Um so and this is all in in order to try and you know do the thing that nobody can do, and that is make everyone happy.
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:19.519
Um, you just can't.
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:30.480
So there's gonna be there's gonna yeah, there's gonna be some moaning and groaning from some people, but hopefully it's only like on one week, and then it's a different group of people who are moaning and groaning the next week.
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:33.759
Uh, you know, but like for me, like I don't take any offense to it, right?
00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:37.279
Like people give feedback, right, because they care.
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:37.920
Right.
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:43.680
The the you know, the the worst thing you can have is just like indifference and like someone just being like, uh well, I don't care.
00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:47.119
I'm just gonna walk away and you know not look back.
00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:54.559
But um, you know, we've built a really good thing here, and uh, you know, I'm I'm thankful that you guys are uh part of it.
00:17:54.640 --> 00:18:02.319
And you know, for those of you who are listening who haven't signed up or who are scared or any of that stuff, stop being scared, just sign up.
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.960
The worst that you can happen is that you know you don't make it.
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:11.680
But I'll tell you what, there are people who joined this community, right, and and made a bunch of friends along the way.
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:14.480
And you know, I'm just gonna put it out there, right?
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:18.400
You look at you know the work that VIP is doing with their series, right?
00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:34.480
A lot of a lot of the reasons why things like that happen, a lot of the reasons why things like PHG World Series and you know why Joker series happens and and all of that is because you know people came here and they met here and then they formed their teams here, right?
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:38.400
And you know, then they they're like, oh man, I want to try it too.
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:42.000
And that's why you know there are so many you know success stories now.
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:44.480
I and you know, I couldn't I couldn't be prouder of that.
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:47.359
So like if you get nothing else, you get a community to join.
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:49.359
Yeah, for sure.
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:51.039
Yeah, I love it.
00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:52.400
Yeah, it is a great community.
00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:54.160
GT Savage.
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:57.359
Everyone we've met through it has just been amazing.
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:00.880
Yeah, all the PhD, VIP, all those guys.
00:19:01.200 --> 00:19:01.920
S7R.
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:03.200
S7R.
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:03.599
Yeah.
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:05.119
Yeah, it's it's been great.
00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:12.480
And then now we're doing the Red Bull Jr., me and Mike, and that's been fun and yeah, it's been great.
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.839
Yeah, so real real quick, uh, explain your Saturday.
00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:20.799
What was your Saturday like for you, McNaughty?
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:23.440
This past Saturday?
00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:25.200
Yes, this past Saturday.
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:30.000
Like, so are you up at, and like what time do you go to bed?
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.519
Because it seemed like all day you were producing.
00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:42.160
Well, okay, so I I was unable to to produce the GTSC that morning.
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:57.519
Oh, you were normally so normally I would be doing uh uh stint one split one of GTSC, but the schedule changed for that, and uh my my wife was like away uh all day yesterday.
00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:07.039
So like it would have been a situation where I would have woken up at 6 a.m., you know, done the things I need to do with the kids and with the dog and breakfast and whatnot.
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:19.039
Then I get come down here to the office, do the do the broadcast for GTSC, then go back to you know being a parent and all that, and then at the end of the day, you know, come back down here to the basement and do Red Cull Jr.
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:23.920
Refer to it as the production center, not the office or the basement.
00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:24.480
Yes, right.
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:26.880
You don't gotta go back to the production center.
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:30.000
That's what you got for for the entire summer.
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:38.559
I think like I streamed once when I was doing um the IRO uh G Tech G Tech, the endurance championship, right?
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:41.119
Uh because I because I race in that too.
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:51.119
Um so I did that, I streamed that, but like other than this, like I haven't I haven't like played the game, I haven't done any dailies all summer or anything like that.
00:20:51.359 --> 00:21:08.960
And I've been you know working to try and get you know this new uh system uh for you know telemetry race engineering and uh you know a couple uh broadcast tweaks up and running, so I've been working on that all summer as well.
00:21:09.119 --> 00:21:12.640
So not to mention, right, like Upshift Media, right?
00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:17.519
Like Upshift Media is putting on two broadcasts every week, so I'm also a part of that.
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:21.119
Yeah, that's been awesome watching those.
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:21.599
Yeah.
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:39.039
Now, are you the main person or is it everybody like Papa and Sal, T case, everybody has the role in it, or is there like somebody who is overseeing everything and is that are you that person?
00:21:39.359 --> 00:21:49.519
So so in terms of like our our our front facing roles, like you know, what we're actually doing on the night that the production goes live, right?
00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:52.559
Like I'm I'm not a commentator, right?
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:59.759
So uh and I think the other five of the ownership group, right, they all can.
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:05.119
Commentate right, T Case, Sal, Tati, Slow-Mo, and Papa, right?
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:07.359
They all take turns in the commentary booth.
00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:11.839
I do not do commentary, so I'm always behind the scenes for that stuff.
00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:22.880
And I rotate behind the scenes work with Sal, with T Case, and I think Papa's scheduled to do uh some production work for one of the rounds coming up.
00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:34.000
But you know, in behind the scenes, like we all have like an equal say on like the trajectory of of you know the the company.
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:34.559
Right.
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:38.720
Um yeah, so so the six of us are equals, right?
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:50.880
We're we're all owners, but like I think to a certain degree, like you know, Sal is the one who got us all together, so like he's he he's kind of like the leader, but like we all have equal equity.
00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:52.160
Okay.
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:53.440
Got it.
00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:55.599
Interesting.
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:59.519
And you know, we're we are looking to to expand.
00:22:59.680 --> 00:23:09.680
Uh there there have been some uh uh you know leagues that have approached us that you know we we haven't had the ability to take on yet because of the size of the team.
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:18.079
So like you know, we're we're looking to expand um so that way we can support you know some more series, especially in 2027.
00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:28.799
Uh it seems like there are a lot of things coming for a lot of uh community leagues in uh in 2027, so we want to be prepared for that as well.
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:35.759
Now, is there a fee that these leagues pay you guys to produce?
00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:49.759
Uh yeah, so so the contract the contracts uh that we have with with uh any client of ours can can vary um depending on the scope of what they need, right?
00:23:50.319 --> 00:24:12.799
So um, you know, VIP might have their their set of requirements, and you know, we come to you know certain a certain agreement of like how we're compensated, where the the league actually airs, um, you know, what is needed, whether it's you know, graphics work, whether it's just commentary or just production, right?
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:20.240
So uh and then you know, depending on the potential reach, you know, different financial agreements can be made, right?
00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:27.680
So I don't want to I don't want to say like, oh yeah, everybody just pays us like writes a check and gives us like you know a million bucks.
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:31.839
But um you're making a million dollars per league?
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:33.359
Breaking news right here.
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:34.000
You heard it.
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:34.960
Breaking news.
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:41.759
My inbox is full already.
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:42.559
Yeah.
00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:48.880
Need to drop this uh podcast and get into production.
00:24:49.119 --> 00:24:49.440
Right.
00:24:51.359 --> 00:25:06.640
Really, it's really exciting work, and like it's funny because um because you you guys know, like obviously, right, like I I help with you know upshift, but I also help as like an independent, right?
00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:16.319
Like just as me to uh you know, IRO and and GTEch and S7R in that series as well, and uh with Red Bull Jr., right?
00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:39.680
Like I'm doing that stuff as an individual, but like I think the days the days of my individual work are are quickly coming to an end here just because you know this upshift media entity was you know perfect for me because I was like a lot of people are coming to me specifically, and like I'm you know, I'm having to turn people away just because I don't have the time, right?
00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:41.440
Like there's only 24 hours in the day.
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:49.680
Yeah, so like putting it together with other people who are often in the same type of situation, especially for their specific roles.
00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:53.920
Like Tati like does commentary for like a million different leagues, right?
00:25:54.160 --> 00:26:07.519
And uh, you know, for for them, it's like you know, just gotta figure out a way to balance the load with people that you you know are are good at the craft and that you can trust.
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:20.799
So um, you know, that's how Upshift Media came to be, and you know, that's why you know there's a lot of talks uh going on uh about it, and you know, I hope that you know we can keep that momentum going forward.
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:22.000
Yeah.
00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:24.880
Now will they be part of you should be good.
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:27.440
Now will they be a part of NRL?
00:26:27.599 --> 00:26:31.680
Will it also be broadcast on that YouTube channel?
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:33.599
Not yet.
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:34.319
Okay.
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:42.880
So uh it's it's funny because you know the the other five owners are all involved with NRL in different ways already.
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:47.359
Um you know, uh Sal's my deputy commissioner.
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:52.640
Uh Tati is part of the broadcast team, so Slow Mo Solo's been there since the beginning.
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:55.200
And TK's has also been there since the beginning.
00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:58.400
Uh Papa is driving in in NRL.
00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:11.039
And uh, you know, I I told uh it's funny, when I when I joined the team, I told him I was like, listen, my my end game here, right, with with NRL is to eventually hire Upshift Media to do NRL for me.
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:19.279
So now I can just go to the bar and watch the races that that I came up with and then not have to touch any buttons.
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.559
Not being production office anymore.
00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:26.160
But you know that's that's probably a little bit away.
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:29.680
Yeah.
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:34.960
The end goal is to you know just be be the face and then have someone else do the work.
00:27:35.200 --> 00:27:36.079
Oh yeah.
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:38.640
That's the ticket right there.
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:47.519
I don't I don't know, I don't know when we'll get to that point, but you know, listen, if uh if we get like a hundred people signing up, then that might come sooner.
00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:48.319
Right.
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:55.359
And with all those extra hands, you could probably put on are you thinking about adding extra lobbies?
00:27:56.160 --> 00:27:56.480
Like a C.
00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:04.799
Well, yeah, so so Division C is like one of the biggest, like hotly debated topics in NRL.
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:08.640
It's like, oh, we need a division C for like, you know, some of the slower guys.
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:15.359
Like one person was like uh reaching out to me and they're like, yeah, we need it for like the older guys, we need a seniors division.
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:18.480
I was like a VR.
00:28:21.039 --> 00:28:22.880
Okay, there's that too.
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:26.559
And like it really just depends on the demand, right?
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:33.759
So like you know, uh as it stands, there's 56 spots that move on to round one, right?
00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:43.839
Yeah so if we have if we have 57 drivers sign up, right, then there's only one elimination between both days, and we don't we don't need a division C, right?
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:45.279
Because there'd just be one guy in it.
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:57.839
So like you know, for me it's more like okay, 84 is the number I think that that would have three full grids on two different days.
00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:58.240
Right.
00:28:58.400 --> 00:28:58.960
Right.
00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:08.160
And uh, you know, if we get to that point, right, then then I seriously gotta consider like, okay, firstly we have a division C.
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:17.279
And then secondly, does Division C use the same settings as uh you know another division?
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:21.119
Uh and then you know, where does it air and when does it air?
00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:25.599
So like Yeah, is it a Sunday thing or Saturday evening?
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:26.799
Right.
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:33.279
And I I I wouldn't I wouldn't want to make the drivers drive on Sunday when they sign up for like Friday and Saturday, right?
00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:38.559
The purpose of that Friday-Saturday thing is so that people can race when they're available, right?
00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:48.319
So like and the you know, EMEA guys, right, they they prefer often to race on Saturdays because that's like early evening for them.
00:29:48.559 --> 00:30:00.640
And uh the Friday nights, you know, that's usually you know good for mostly American, Canadian, right, Mexican uh drivers, um, and Australian drivers, right?
00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:12.319
So like when we you know the times that we've had like uh Australian and New Zealanders, they've they've raced on Friday night because that's like Sunday, uh Saturday afternoon for them, or something like that, right?
00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:12.960
Sunday afternoon.
00:30:13.200 --> 00:30:13.680
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:14.640
Saturday afternoon.
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:17.440
So uh so that worked for them.
00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:25.759
Um so yeah, I mean it's I I maybe there could be a situation where like they record their race, right?
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:31.119
We recorded on on the Friday or the Saturday, and then it airs on the Sunday, right?
00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:38.720
Or you know, something like that, or maybe it airs later in the day, either on my channel or on Upshift Media or or you know, wherever else.
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:41.200
Um but until we get that demand, right?
00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:44.240
Yeah, uh then there's not really a use case.
00:30:44.319 --> 00:30:51.839
Yeah, so if you want that to happen, make sure you sign up because uh you know that's so that's the only way to tell me.
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:57.599
Like the only way to show me that we need a division C is to have the sign-ups.
00:30:58.079 --> 00:31:01.599
See, I don't I I like it that it's only the two divisions.
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:07.519
You know, you gotta fight your way in, you gotta make sure you put those times in, or you're gonna be eliminated.
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:09.759
You know, I think it makes it more special.
00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:17.119
Well, but again, if you have 84 people signing up, then it does call for a C division.
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:20.000
You know, or you got ninety-six people.
00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:28.559
Yeah, it would definitely um call for a so like so like imagine like a hundred people sign up, right?
00:31:28.720 --> 00:31:34.000
So a hundred people sign up and sixteen still get eliminated, even if there was a division C.
00:31:34.079 --> 00:31:34.160
Right.
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:43.839
So like you know, that could be there, but yeah, I wouldn't want to cheapen the suspense of pre-qualifying by just saying, okay, everybody can get in.
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:45.119
Right, yeah, exactly.
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:54.000
Um make it so that yeah, there is some like, you know, skills, excitement, excitement to it, though.
00:31:54.079 --> 00:31:57.200
Like, yeah, you're not just enter, it doesn't matter what I if I show up or not.
00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:59.680
Um, there's still room for me, it doesn't matter.
00:31:59.839 --> 00:32:03.200
You know, you know, you gotta put on your best to get in with the best.
00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:03.599
Yeah.
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:04.640
Well, like that's right.
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:08.880
You know, some veterans got eliminated.
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:14.319
Yeah, I mean, names names that you would have never thought, right?
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:16.799
That got eliminated, got eliminated.
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:21.359
So you don't you don't bring your A game on the day, you're kind of you're out.
00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:23.680
Like, you know, I mean that's even with us sometimes.
00:32:23.759 --> 00:32:30.079
I'm like, yeah, we got the pace, but it's like when it comes down to it, do you got that enough to show up, you know?
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:31.279
Yeah, and qualifying.
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:43.440
Or do you or or do you end up overshowing up and and kind of you know screwing yourself and you know, and putting too much and like now you're just oh in over your head, you know.
00:32:44.240 --> 00:32:45.759
Things like that happen.
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:47.680
And you really do see that stuff.
00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:58.720
So like Island Grown, like two seasons ago, I'm pr I'm pretty sure it was two seasons ago, he he got eliminated in pre-qualifying, and then last season he he qualified for eight qualified and got into his day.
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:02.720
So like, you know, like you see that stuff all the time.
00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:28.319
And like I I think you know, one thing that had come up or that I that I hear about is like you know, oh well, you know, there's only there's only one day of of pre-qualifying, and you know, if you if you don't have a good day, then you know your whole season is changed or your whole season is lost, and you know, I I have some empathy for that, however, like that's real.
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:31.119
That's real life, exactly.
00:33:31.279 --> 00:33:32.240
That's exactly it.
00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:38.720
Like you only got one shot in real life, then if yeah, there's enough time to prepare.
00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:43.119
Like everybody knows the year, there's a lot of time.
00:33:44.079 --> 00:33:47.440
Yeah, so like everyone knows it like a month ahead of time, right?
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:49.119
It's not going to change.
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:51.519
Uh, and you also get 25 minutes.
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:55.519
So like a lap here, right, is like uh a little over a minute and a half, right?
00:33:56.000 --> 00:34:03.279
So, you know, you do some math, like you can get you know a good number of laps here in in this qualifying session.
00:34:03.359 --> 00:34:06.720
So like it's not like one shot qualifying, right?
00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:11.519
Like you have an almost half-hour session to plenty of time, right?
00:34:11.679 --> 00:34:12.239
Plenty of time.
00:34:12.559 --> 00:34:16.880
Yeah, it's not GTWS where they give you four minutes on spa.
00:34:17.920 --> 00:34:18.320
Exactly.
00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:18.800
Yeah.
00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:26.400
You know, you actually get some time to put some laps in and yeah, yeah, earn your stripes as they're two.
00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:32.880
People can warm up beforehand, you know, take an hour, get warmed up, you know, before the lobby opens.
00:34:33.440 --> 00:34:34.400
All that good stuff.
00:34:34.639 --> 00:34:35.199
Exactly.
00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:38.719
Practice for weeks, get yourself dialed for consistency.
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:39.840
Great.
00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:44.960
And I don't I don't want to say that like other types of qualifying are like terrible, right?
00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:48.000
But like this is kind of like just what makes NRL different.
00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:50.159
And I think that's like what makes it great.
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:58.559
And like to to all of my fellow league creators and commissioners and and all those things, right?
00:34:58.719 --> 00:35:19.039
The leaders of those leagues, like, right, when they when they talk to me before launching their you know, particular league, you know, they they ask me for like you know, pieces of advice, and like what I tell them is like everybody can do group three, the league at these five tracks, right?
00:35:19.360 --> 00:35:22.320
Here are the settings, here's here's the whole schedule, right?
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:25.760
And what what about it is special?
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:27.199
Why do I care, right?
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:33.360
So like I think every league needs to have something that's a little bit different, right?
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:37.199
That like entices people or you know, gets the competitive juices flowing, right?
00:35:37.280 --> 00:35:37.440
Yeah.
00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:41.679
And I think that you know, the leagues that I'm involved with, you know, they all have that, right?
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:59.119
Whether it's whether it's the race race length, or whether it's the uh the car that they use or the qualifying format, or you know, the week to week drop rounds, things like that, you know, like I think that's that's all necessary in order to have a successful league.
00:35:59.440 --> 00:36:00.480
Yeah, definitely.
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:03.440
So who's uh this is how NRL does it.
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:07.119
Yeah, if you don't mind who's running VIP, like who's the brains behind that?
00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:09.519
We know like PhG, it's uh shaggy.
00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:13.840
I think it's you know is it Cyrus Nicky?
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:16.559
Well, it's left to Pasu.
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:17.199
Okay.
00:36:17.519 --> 00:36:18.000
Oh, okay.
00:36:18.079 --> 00:36:18.480
He's the one.
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:25.599
He's like the the leader of of the league fortune.
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:28.719
Um but yeah.
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:33.360
Um Cyrus Nicky, you know, gets involved with like the the the production as well.
00:36:33.519 --> 00:36:36.800
And he, you know, all those crazy good intros that you see.
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:39.199
Yeah, dude, he's oh my god, incredible.
00:36:39.440 --> 00:36:40.079
He's amazing.
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:40.800
Incredible.
00:36:41.119 --> 00:36:45.519
He made us something, and I need to figure out how to add it to the video part.
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:51.199
But yeah, thank you to Cyrus, because man, he makes some incredible stuff.
00:36:52.400 --> 00:37:00.800
Dude, and like it's funny to me because like I'm like I'm like, dude, I gotta, I gotta, like, I gotta get you into the fold.
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:14.880
And like when I try to get people into the fold, sometimes I have have like too good of a problem sometimes, where like I I ask somebody who you know is talented to help me with something, and they're like, oh, I can't.
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:16.559
Um I wanna drive.
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:21.360
And I'm like, man, everybody wants to drive in NRL.
00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:24.320
Nobody wants to like sit out and help me.
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.800
But it's like, you know, it's a it's a good problem to have.
00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:35.039
Like, you know, I'd rather that than than you know, nobody wanting to drive.
00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:35.519
Yeah, right.
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:36.000
Yeah, exactly.
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:37.519
Then you want to have a league.
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:44.880
So yeah, it it means that your league is successful when people would rather drive than do background stuff.
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:47.519
That's the kind of help of the product.
00:37:49.199 --> 00:37:50.400
I want to win this.
00:37:50.559 --> 00:37:50.880
Yeah.
00:37:51.119 --> 00:37:53.679
Because he came close one year, didn't he, Cyrus?
00:37:55.599 --> 00:38:00.159
Uh no.
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:03.519
Yeah, season season six, he had pass of the season.
00:38:03.599 --> 00:38:04.159
That's for sure.
00:38:04.320 --> 00:38:05.039
Yeah, that's right.
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:05.599
Yeah.
00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:06.559
Yeah, he wants that.
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:11.920
Again, you can go to McDoddy gaming and check uh every season and every winner.
00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:12.960
Yeah, during that rally.
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:15.119
Well, I just that's right.
00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:28.159
I just pulled up his entire so like you can go, so like anyone can go to McDonough.gg, look up previous seasons, and you can you can see all the races, but you can also look at a driver and their entire history.
00:38:28.239 --> 00:38:36.159
So like I just pulled up Cyrus Nicky uh, you know, in the three seasons he participated in season six, season five, season four.
00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:36.800
Right?
00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:46.960
And uh, you know, he let's see, season four, he finished Wait a second.
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:50.079
Did I have this right?
00:38:50.880 --> 00:38:53.039
He won he won season four.
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:57.599
Oh he won season four, then he d the division B final.
00:38:58.159 --> 00:39:03.519
And then uh Division A final he made in season five and he finished seventh.
00:39:03.920 --> 00:39:10.079
And then uh he made the division A final in season six and uh finished thirteenth, unfortunately.
00:39:10.159 --> 00:39:18.400
But yeah, he uh he is a he's a uh he's a previous champion.
00:39:18.719 --> 00:39:19.119
Alright.
00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:22.639
He wants that A championship now, he's gunning for it.
00:39:23.599 --> 00:39:24.960
We better watch out, Jorge.
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:27.599
Sarah Snicky's coming.
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:29.840
Yeah.
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:35.440
Now is um so Sean, Sheld, and what player they're automatically in.
00:39:36.400 --> 00:39:37.039
Or not.
00:39:37.119 --> 00:39:41.440
Uh let me pull it up because I did say it here.
00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:45.360
Guys got me on the spot.
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:49.679
And then it would be, I think, um we asked the hard-hitty question.
00:39:49.920 --> 00:39:56.400
Then it would be Jorge Kai and Wid would automatically be in an A, I believe.
00:39:56.639 --> 00:40:00.000
Or it it's I think I did say it in the uh in the thing here.
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:00.480
Yeah, yeah.
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:06.719
Jorge Kai Alakos got in via the the the podium final, right?
00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:12.960
So the the podium finishers in the final get in, and then also the top three point scorers in the regular season.
00:40:13.280 --> 00:40:24.000
So those three got in based on their their uh final appearance, and then Wid also uh has an automatic uh Division A entry based on his point total.
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:31.519
Uh so it's four, because uh you know Jorge and Kai also were in the top three point getters.
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:33.920
Uh so it can be up to six drivers.
00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:36.320
Uh so for Division A, it's those four.
00:40:36.559 --> 00:40:53.840
And for Division B, right, who are automatically able to participate in the league, they can't be eliminated, are JP Skill, uh Sean, you, and uh Kaber for your uh podium in the final, and then Sheldologist and Cole Trickle for point totals.
00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:56.960
And I gotta say, poor Sheldologist, man.
00:40:57.599 --> 00:40:59.039
Oh yeah, can't catch a break.
00:40:59.119 --> 00:41:00.400
No break.
00:41:02.239 --> 00:41:02.400
No.
00:41:03.519 --> 00:41:04.159
Yeah.
00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:08.320
Goes on vacation then last year.
00:41:08.400 --> 00:41:08.719
Yeah.
00:41:09.599 --> 00:41:10.239
Dropped.
00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:14.639
So he he had almost well actually, you know what?
00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:17.360
Yeah, he had almost a perfect season.
00:41:17.599 --> 00:41:18.480
Almost.
00:41:18.800 --> 00:41:21.599
So so he won every race, right?
00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:23.679
But he didn't get every fastest lap.
00:41:24.079 --> 00:41:29.599
And the the statistical perfect season still hasn't been reached yet.
00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:35.199
He and Jorge are the first two to get 100 points in the season, but the perfect season is 109 points.
00:41:35.519 --> 00:41:35.840
Okay.
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:45.760
Uh so that that leads me into my my next point about like some of the feedback that I got was about the point scoring system.
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:50.000
So like up until last season we used F1, right?
00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:58.639
And you know, uh part of the feedback that was was given is that you know it prioritizes the winner by a lot, right?
00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:10.079
If if the winner gets 25 points and then second place gets 18, like F1, then you know it's like you win a race and like you're automatically good, like no questions asked.
00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:24.159
Uh so we we we did some tweaks to make it slightly more linear, but like the key thing is that winners still get 25 points because I don't want to like tarnish like the legacy.
00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:31.840
Like I don't want to make it so that if somebody did have the perfect season, now they can't even get 100 points by setting the winner to get 14.
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:36.159
Um so we brought those point values closer together.
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:46.960
Uh P1 is 25, P2 is 22, P3 is 19, uh and then 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1.
00:42:47.199 --> 00:42:52.960
So the only person who doesn't get any points is uh P14, or if you DNF.
00:42:53.679 --> 00:42:58.239
Um so it's a little bit closer together.
00:42:58.400 --> 00:43:04.000
There is still some value for winning, but like it's not it's not that much better than second place.
00:43:04.159 --> 00:43:04.400
Right.
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:11.920
Uh so we're gonna give it a shot, see how it actually ends up in season eight, and then you know, if we need to make some more tweaks, we make some more tweaks.
00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:15.360
Because like what I don't want to do is like completely overhaul everything.
00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:15.599
Yeah.
00:43:15.920 --> 00:43:20.800
I think everything has to be like gradual to get to like whatever that sweep spot may be.
00:43:20.880 --> 00:43:22.719
So this might not be it, right?
00:43:23.039 --> 00:43:24.079
But it might be.
00:43:24.559 --> 00:43:27.119
Just depends on how the races go.
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:28.079
Right.
00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:29.119
Yeah.
00:43:29.360 --> 00:43:30.719
Yeah, I like to do scoring.
00:43:30.800 --> 00:43:35.360
I I I think that'll um that'll definitely help and stuff.
00:43:35.519 --> 00:43:36.960
So I like it.
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:51.840
Have you had um since we've had this new update, have you had any people who are now hesitant or who wanted to back out because they don't like this new update and don't want to play Gran Turismo anymore?
00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:57.280
I mean, knock on wood, I haven't I haven't had anyone uh say that.
00:43:57.920 --> 00:43:58.239
Okay.
00:43:59.360 --> 00:44:06.880
Uh I think that what I've seen in in our Discord server is like some people are like, Well, there goes my practice.
00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:07.360
Right?
00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:19.360
Like I I've been practicing since literally since the the moment I announced it, they were practicing that night, and they're like, Okay, now I gotta like recalibrate so like it's a week lost or something like that.
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:20.719
And I feel I feel bad about it.
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:22.159
It's like, no, it's not my fault.
00:44:22.719 --> 00:44:28.880
You gotta get to uh to cause you gotta change up your style big time.
00:44:29.119 --> 00:44:29.679
Yeah.
00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:30.239
Yeah.
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:45.679
Now how obviously I don't know if you obviously don't have the great amount of time, but uh with the new update, do you think you for yourself with what you have tested and probably written out affects your kind of base strategy lines for the for the league?
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:48.000
That you're gonna have to go and redo it all?
00:44:48.719 --> 00:44:54.800
So the fortunate thing is, right, so one is that I have a team of dry testers along with me.
00:44:54.960 --> 00:44:59.599
So I don't have to there's nine there's 19 unique combos, right?
00:44:59.840 --> 00:45:05.679
16 in the regular season, two different finals, and then Friday and Saturday pre-qualifying are the same race.
00:45:05.920 --> 00:45:10.400
Um so nineteen different combinations that need to be tested.
00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:17.679
But we started our our testing to tweak the parameters after the physics change.
00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:18.159
Okay.
00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:26.159
So unless they change it back, right, then then you know we should we should have a baseline.
00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:31.199
But I think like once once I set you know the final like multipliers, right?
00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:34.559
Once that is done and dusted, I'm I'm not gonna change it.
00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:34.960
Right.
00:45:35.599 --> 00:45:44.239
Um it may end up you know changing the dynamics of the race, but like, you know, that's just kind of how it goes sometimes, right?
00:45:44.320 --> 00:45:52.159
Like there's only there's only so much that like is sensible to to try and do with this stuff.
00:45:52.480 --> 00:46:06.880
But like, you know, I'm I'm really thankful to you know the guys who stepped up to help me uh with that because for season seven, man, like just inner logos alone, you know, I was driving like over 200 laps to try and figure out you know what to do.
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:11.519
Um that takes up like so much time.
00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:12.400
Yeah, yeah.
00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:26.320
That's why I was wondering is because I know it's a lot of work for you, like it's a lot of races, a lot of divisions, and because the they're not the same race for everybody for the it's like there's four different races each weekend for the most part.
00:46:26.400 --> 00:46:30.320
So that's uh that's a lot of combinations to re-readjust for.
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:38.079
So like that's well, how did how did the changes change for S7R extravaganza?
00:46:38.639 --> 00:46:45.679
Like, what was the game plan going in to the race Wednesday and then Thursday?
00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:47.199
Well, what changed?
00:46:48.079 --> 00:46:52.480
Uh laps on tires, like the ability to go for forever on the tires.
00:46:52.719 --> 00:46:54.559
So what was the hard tire?
00:46:54.719 --> 00:47:01.679
The hard tire was a little bit more closer to half the race kind of thing to be sensible on the tires and the tire wear.
00:47:02.079 --> 00:47:05.840
And with uh after the change, you were I I pitted on lap ten.
00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:14.800
Some people were pitting on lap eight or nine on to get off the hards because you could go 15 laps, you could go almost 10 laps on the softs instead of like seven, eight.
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:21.760
Like you it it really did change the but there's still some strategy there, but it took a little bit more out of it.
00:47:22.320 --> 00:47:33.039
Um and the pace fall off, you didn't have to worry, you just had to worry about the tires drop once the tires were gone, kind of thing, because the pace never fell off like it did um with the old settings.
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:39.599
So it was like, okay, you have to balance that tire wear and drop off to like, oh, I gotta get on the other tires because I'm slower than them now.
00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:42.559
You know, it didn't happen, it would just go until the tires let go.
00:47:42.880 --> 00:47:43.840
All right, get in the pits.
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:52.880
Yeah, because before, dude, those softs, once you got towards the end, that bottom half of those tires, you really had to start breaking a lot earlier, being careful.
00:47:53.199 --> 00:47:57.039
Last night, man, I just fucking gunned it the whole time.
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:01.440
I held a little bit of time, but not much.
00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:02.400
Yeah.
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:04.639
Well, again, tread hit his right side.
00:48:05.119 --> 00:48:05.760
Oh, dude, it was gone.
00:48:06.400 --> 00:48:06.800
It was gone.
00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:07.039
Yeah.
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:07.679
Gone.
00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:12.079
And that car should have spun or not turned or something.
00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:13.039
Like nothing.
00:48:13.199 --> 00:48:13.920
Like there's so many times.
00:48:14.320 --> 00:48:15.920
And I literally had the camera on him.
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:16.320
Yeah.
00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:22.480
I had the camera on him, and I was like, I'm just waiting for him to like be in the wall because like his entire right side is like gone.
00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:23.920
Gone.
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:28.719
You could there was like the no instability in that car for the most part.
00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:43.519
Like you could just hop like full throttle of the corners, and like coming up the hill that that hairpin, the car would get loose before you could spin it out real easy there if you got on too quick because of the way the corner banks uphill and the weight shift.
00:48:43.679 --> 00:48:46.079
Now you just come up through that corner, just plant it, and go.
00:48:46.239 --> 00:48:51.519
Just all you had to worry about was a little under steer and sliding out off the track wide a bit or something.
00:48:51.679 --> 00:48:55.599
It was it was just like there was not to say no skill, but no skill.
00:48:55.760 --> 00:49:00.159
It was like the the only skill you had to just don't hit the wall, let off a little bit.
00:49:01.679 --> 00:49:02.960
Not to worry about it.
00:49:03.519 --> 00:49:12.239
When he went into that hairpin and hit you, um, I feel like since the physics changed, he was like, Oh fuck, dude, I just gotta crank it and I should be able to make this.
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:20.960
But hit he did have his crank all the way to the left, and he still went straight into you a little bit, so there's still a little bit you want to be careful.
00:49:21.199 --> 00:49:22.079
There's a yeah, there's a lot of things.
00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:23.360
I'll talk about it afterwards.
00:49:23.519 --> 00:49:25.280
I won't say anything on on here about that.
00:49:26.880 --> 00:49:27.280
Yeah.
00:49:27.519 --> 00:49:28.159
Yep.
00:49:28.639 --> 00:49:29.519
Yep, yep.
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:31.599
I've gone over the replay.
00:49:31.679 --> 00:49:41.280
Uh so but yeah, you know, but yeah, the physics of changes is is really in my it's like they changed the also the damage.
00:49:41.519 --> 00:49:44.719
Um, and I don't think we have the setting for it yet.
00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:51.519
They don't they like in the lobbies for it, but there's championship damage now, which is fully dynamic damage.
00:49:51.679 --> 00:50:00.559
So you get uh damage from like bump drafting, uh maybe not all the time, but if you know you give them a good bump, you're you're you're gonna lose arrow.
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:03.199
Um it's quick to repair.
00:50:03.920 --> 00:50:07.679
Um it's still repair, and then there's uh variable heavier damage.
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:15.599
So when you hit the wall, your suspension, all that, and it it affects you, it's supposed to affect you more and longer, depending on how bad it is.
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:22.320
So if you graze the wall and just get a little bit of a bumper damage kind of thing, it'll go away pretty quick, but you're gonna have some arrow issues.
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:30.480
You know, if you actually hit it, you're gonna actually feel it in the wheel, pro apparently now, um, and it's gonna take a lot longer, and it's it could be even more impactful.
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:41.119
And they're trying to take that as we're trying to eliminate dirty driving, all the bump and runs so that you get damaged and it it does affect you.
00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:43.920
So it's not smart to do that to people anymore.
00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:51.360
But then they change the physics so that you can come from five positions back and just dive bomb the corner.
00:50:51.840 --> 00:50:52.639
You know what I mean?
00:50:52.719 --> 00:51:02.239
Because you can break at the 20 meters before the apex and just turn the wheel, like you know, like but that's the way it feels, it's gonna feel for a lot.
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:10.960
You're still there's still gonna be issues of like if you overdrive the car and slide it out, but you you don't have it it you don't have a lot of forgiveness.
00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:15.280
Dirty tires, yeah, dirty tires anymore.
00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:20.000
It doesn't make you faster, it just gives you ability not to wreck as much.
00:51:22.800 --> 00:51:23.440
Incredible speed.
00:51:24.800 --> 00:51:30.719
I would like I just for joke, even Todd and that shit and Sean saw it for the Red Bull at the Grand Valley.
00:51:30.880 --> 00:51:34.320
I was doing laps doing full turn crossed over my hands.
00:51:34.559 --> 00:51:34.960
Oh my god.
00:51:35.280 --> 00:51:37.519
And just driving through corners and no problem.
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:47.039
Just I was losing time like crazy, but I was able to just go into the corner, completely snap my arms or like turn the wheel 180 and just drive to the corner.
00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:48.880
Fully accelerating.
00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:50.800
You know, like it's just like dun dun dun.
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:54.559
And it wasn't even barely affecting the tire wear either.
00:51:55.199 --> 00:51:56.079
Yeah, it was wild.
00:51:56.320 --> 00:51:58.880
Like it, like the the grip and and uh the what they've done.
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:08.239
Yeah, it's gonna be different in other cars, but you just you obviously tone that down a bit, and when you get to like group three and four, and it'll still do the exact same thing.
00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:16.159
You know and uh to to trying to snap the car out of the corners, it took me everything to get it to go, and it barely went.
00:52:17.199 --> 00:52:31.599
You know, like it the the stability factor has increased like times ten, so it's it's gonna promote more more bad sportsmanship, I think, in the main like lower lobbies.
00:52:32.960 --> 00:52:35.760
Yeah, I I I did go ahead, Todd.
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:40.239
I I did man you um yesterday one race.
00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:46.320
Um and after five laps, I'm like, oh my god, 15 more fucking laps and this shit.
00:52:46.559 --> 00:52:51.599
It was just I the race seriously could not get over fucking fast enough.
00:52:51.920 --> 00:53:04.719
Um I qualified 15th and finished fifth, but there is no technique, no skill needed to drive in this game anymore.
00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:17.039
And a guy in a Ferrari uh going into turn one made a move that was impossible, but not with the new physics was able to make it fucking thick.
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:25.599
And yeah, it it it's just um the only good thing about the update is the new damage thing.
00:53:25.679 --> 00:53:26.559
I like that.
00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:31.360
I I would prefer full damage, but at least it's a step in the right direction.
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:37.360
But um I I have no interest in really playing this game anymore.
00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:44.159
The the the skill set has been taken away, and it's just um point and shoot and go.
00:53:44.559 --> 00:53:52.000
Well, I know well with the update, one of the things we got was new conversation sets with characters in the cafe.
00:53:53.119 --> 00:54:05.360
Chris talks about the Cade Room and the Toyota Mark II, Jeremy talks about the Toyota Chaser, and Stella talks about the new Hyundai ionic.
00:54:05.599 --> 00:54:07.039
Yeah, it's great.
00:54:09.280 --> 00:54:17.039
The BOP's fuck, so now it's a Genesis um or Hyundai, yeah, uh it's all the front engine cars.
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:22.400
Yeah, but you get to talk, yeah, but you get a talk with Stella, Jeremy, and Chris about cars.
00:54:22.480 --> 00:54:25.280
In the I I mean, I'm excited about that.
00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:34.800
So, but the BOP they fucked up in group four, it became the Hyundai, uh Hyundai TC is the new dominant car.
00:54:35.039 --> 00:54:41.440
So it it's just mind-boggling that a fake race car is the number one car.
00:54:41.920 --> 00:54:49.440
And then there was like Suzuki was in the top, Volkswagen, all these fake race cars are are all in the top 100.
00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:52.800
Here's what's been done physical simulation model.
00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:57.360
This should be yeah, this is this should be physics arcade model.
00:54:57.840 --> 00:55:01.039
The tire physics algorithm has been revised.
00:55:01.199 --> 00:55:04.159
Improved tire behavior during wheel slip.
00:55:04.400 --> 00:55:07.360
Yeah, yeah, like lose grip.
00:55:08.159 --> 00:55:08.800
Yeah, yeah.
00:55:09.760 --> 00:55:13.519
Optimize a road surface and rolling resistance.
00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:18.159
Again, no braking, no slip and better braking.
00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:21.280
Revise tire heating and wear values.
00:55:21.599 --> 00:55:22.880
They don't wear.
00:55:23.360 --> 00:55:25.199
No temperature heating, nothing.
00:55:25.440 --> 00:55:31.599
Refine loss of grip when grip reduction when grip reduction off track is set to reel.
00:55:31.920 --> 00:55:34.880
Okay, so uh so I'm gonna say something about that.
00:55:35.039 --> 00:55:41.039
That I had the I so if you get two wheels off the off, it would normally go into like a breaking zone.
00:55:41.199 --> 00:55:44.079
I'll say this for Grand Valley versus corner chicanes.
00:55:44.239 --> 00:55:51.679
If you were going wide a little bit before and your any to your wheels touched the sand before, you had a problem.
00:55:53.440 --> 00:55:54.880
Now, you don't.
00:55:55.440 --> 00:56:01.039
But if you get four wheels off, yeah, you have a major problem.
00:56:01.360 --> 00:56:02.639
You're cooked.
00:56:03.280 --> 00:56:04.320
I'll say that.
00:56:04.559 --> 00:56:06.719
Four wheels off, you have a major grip problem.
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:10.159
Do you think Dunlop has something to do with this?
00:56:10.719 --> 00:56:14.880
Could be, but how why would they want to be part of something that's all not even crucial?
00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:22.400
Well, you think they would be taking tire data from actual racing and trying to implement it into the game of their tires, like Michelin.
00:56:22.960 --> 00:56:23.840
Well, yeah.
00:56:24.000 --> 00:56:26.639
Well, engine torque controls have been refined.
00:56:26.719 --> 00:56:31.119
What that means is the limited slip differential has been changed.
00:56:31.360 --> 00:56:38.159
Yeah, improved throttle response while while drifting, improved vehicle speed control under partial throttle.
00:56:38.480 --> 00:56:38.719
Yeah.
00:56:38.960 --> 00:56:43.280
Yeah, it's because the the LDS is is working for you.
00:56:43.599 --> 00:56:50.559
Yeah, it's like you basically they they've changed it to it feels like your traction control's on two or three.
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:52.320
Yeah, yeah, you can just hammer it.
00:56:54.400 --> 00:56:58.079
Oh, oh, oh, so I did so I did a test yesterday.
00:56:58.239 --> 00:57:02.000
I did a test yesterday when I was screwing around with the new physics.
00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:10.000
So I I brought my Mercedes, because I the AMG group three car to a full stop.
00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:21.679
I revved the shit out of the engine, I dumped the clutch, and there was no traction and there was no there was I had no traction control on and there was no wheel spin.
00:57:21.760 --> 00:57:22.480
The car just took off.
00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:30.000
I mean suspension and steering physics have been a right uh revised too.
00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:36.960
Optimize steering geometry for each car to improve the simulation of cornering forces.
00:57:37.119 --> 00:57:38.079
That's a lie.
00:57:38.320 --> 00:57:42.239
It does not improve the simulation of cornering forces.
00:57:42.480 --> 00:57:49.599
Rework dampering cape uh characteristics to provide more natural body movement and road service tracking.
00:57:49.920 --> 00:57:52.719
No, that again is a lie.
00:57:54.960 --> 00:57:56.880
What we want to say, McNaughty, sorry.
00:57:57.199 --> 00:58:02.719
So by improving it, they they think that just making it easier is an improvement.
00:58:03.039 --> 00:58:04.239
That's an improvement, yes.
00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:05.440
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:58:06.320 --> 00:58:08.719
It's funny the wording they use though, and it changes.
00:58:08.960 --> 00:58:15.760
There's a there's a couple of the spots where it kind of changes and says, like, to make it feel like real world kind of thing.
00:58:15.840 --> 00:58:16.880
And it's just like, what?
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:19.280
Yeah, maybe improvement.
00:58:20.960 --> 00:58:27.679
To improve the stimulation of cornering forces, it has it has not improved that.
00:58:28.079 --> 00:58:30.079
It is taken it away.
00:58:30.559 --> 00:58:33.599
Yeah, they've slowed the downshift a bit more as well.
00:58:34.000 --> 00:58:34.880
Which is fine.
00:58:35.039 --> 00:58:36.480
I have got no problem with that.
00:58:36.800 --> 00:58:39.519
But it's actually it's a little confident like that.
00:58:39.679 --> 00:58:41.679
I don't be a downshift guard.
00:58:41.920 --> 00:58:53.360
Well, the it and it also it uh certain cars as well now, you know, when you uh double up shift out of a corner, you have to be on throttle to make it work.
00:58:53.599 --> 00:58:56.960
That's specifically for the Red Bull 2019.
00:58:57.280 --> 00:59:00.800
Yeah, but they're gonna do that to other cars as well because there are yeah.
00:59:01.360 --> 00:59:04.639
Um default setup values have been revised.
00:59:04.800 --> 00:59:10.559
Initial suspension, initial differential, initial aerodynamics.
00:59:10.639 --> 00:59:12.960
All of those have been adjusted.
00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:17.760
Yeah, have you tried turning the ABS off yet?
00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:18.719
That's one thing I think.
00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:19.840
Uh digit did.
00:59:20.159 --> 00:59:20.320
Okay.
00:59:20.639 --> 00:59:21.280
Digited.
00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:23.039
And yeah, that's another thing.
00:59:23.119 --> 00:59:26.559
They changed that, and he's like, you can almost probably drive the car now without any.
00:59:27.280 --> 00:59:30.239
I was thinking maybe it would help make it feel better.
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:32.559
So the brakes never luck.
00:59:32.800 --> 00:59:33.039
Yeah.
00:59:33.199 --> 00:59:33.440
Yeah.
00:59:33.519 --> 00:59:33.760
Yeah.
00:59:34.000 --> 00:59:34.159
Yeah.
00:59:34.320 --> 00:59:42.079
Well, it says uh the behavior of the traction control assist intervention has been optim optimized, whatever that means.
00:59:42.320 --> 00:59:44.159
You don't need it anymore.
00:59:44.480 --> 00:59:45.679
You don't need it anymore.
00:59:45.760 --> 00:59:47.760
The car is traction control.
00:59:48.159 --> 00:59:52.159
I think I used plus one in the Porsche yesterday, and I could have probably been at zero.
00:59:52.960 --> 00:59:55.440
Or I would drive it like plus three.
00:59:55.760 --> 00:59:58.320
I know a lot of people like plus five in it or whatever.
00:59:58.480 --> 01:00:00.079
I just happen to use plus three.
01:00:00.800 --> 01:00:08.000
Slip ratio control, slip ratio control and corner braking behavior under ABS has been adjusted.
01:00:08.480 --> 01:00:08.880
Yeah.
01:00:09.039 --> 01:00:12.079
Like it doesn't even it doesn't matter.
01:00:12.559 --> 01:00:16.320
Yeah, you don't feel any ABS lockup or anything.
01:00:16.400 --> 01:00:19.280
It just slam on the brake.
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:22.400
You just slam on the brakes and the car stops.
01:00:22.880 --> 01:00:26.480
There's no ABS kick in stuttering that makes your car slide or anything like that.
01:00:26.800 --> 01:00:31.519
It just it's just it's basically like no ABS without lockup.
01:00:31.760 --> 01:00:35.440
So driving without the ABS now is probably an option.
01:00:36.960 --> 01:00:37.280
Yeah.
01:00:37.519 --> 01:00:42.239
Because you might be able to get that slight lockup that helps you turn the car a bit or something.
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:48.559
I'm not looking for it to turn on this PlayStation, but uh, I'm hoping you did.
01:00:49.119 --> 01:01:05.599
Yeah, I was hoping you had and get your opinion on it because uh I'm kind of it's kind of when you when you get on it as a as a driver and a razor, and like in in the f in that that you you know that it takes some skill to do things properly.
01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:09.199
When you get into this next, you'll be dis you'll probably be disgusted.
01:01:10.239 --> 01:01:10.559
Okay.
01:01:10.800 --> 01:01:13.039
I gotta make sure I record my reaction then.
01:01:13.519 --> 01:01:14.559
Yeah, you should, yeah.
01:01:15.280 --> 01:01:16.719
You should do a reaction video.
01:01:16.960 --> 01:01:20.880
Yeah, you should live reaction video and put it out there.
01:01:21.119 --> 01:01:21.760
You should.
01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:27.360
Where have they adjusted shortcut penalty criteria to make it less strict?
01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:30.159
Yasmarina, they put in the barriers.
01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:31.039
Yeah.
01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:34.320
It's funny.
01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:36.239
It's done under penalties, it says, yeah.
01:01:36.800 --> 01:01:44.239
I I hopped on, I hopped on and was racing some Yasmerina, and boy, it sure does seem like I was still getting penalties everywhere I went.
01:01:44.960 --> 01:02:09.039
Well, they they put in the barrier because people, what they were doing is uh you'd get a penalty in the first section, a half second, and then you could cut this one section, um you'd still get a three-second penalty, but the time you made up by cutting the the sharp hair pin, you you made that time up so people had these incredible fucking lap times and shit.
01:02:09.280 --> 01:02:19.199
Yeah, you could basically get like five, five, six seconds of extra time off from the cut, and then you get a penalty, but it's still like I couldn't believe it's a good thing.
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:27.440
I did a few laps and I was just like, how's like even people were doing it in like time trial?
01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:30.079
And they were doing it in time trial, yeah.
01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:33.360
I couldn't believe like how am I like multiple seconds off?
01:02:33.519 --> 01:02:35.280
My pace is not that slow.
01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:40.559
I know I'm kind of Red Bull Junior fucking mindset, but I'm not that slow.
01:02:41.440 --> 01:02:44.320
And then I realized I seen all the people talking about it.
01:02:44.400 --> 01:02:45.360
It's like, oh yeah, okay.
01:02:45.760 --> 01:02:47.360
They're fucking cutting the fucking thing.
01:02:47.519 --> 01:02:49.199
There's always somebody cheating.
01:02:49.440 --> 01:02:49.840
Yep.
01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:50.880
Yep.
01:02:51.599 --> 01:02:53.599
Yep, that is that is the truth.
01:02:53.760 --> 01:02:59.440
So yeah, the the the the update was a downgrade, not an update.
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:00.320
Yeah, for that.
01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:01.119
I'll say this.
01:03:01.199 --> 01:03:04.559
I'm not I'm not I'm not uh a controller player, but I'll say this.
01:03:04.880 --> 01:03:08.000
What I've seen they did for the controllers is actually good.
01:03:08.559 --> 01:03:21.360
Um the inputs, they used to be a fucking you if you put your foot down, like you know, squeeze the trigger for your throttle, whatever, full throttle, it would be like a s it was like a kind of a slow progressive input.
01:03:22.239 --> 01:03:26.880
It was like an automatic feathered in almost like to it, no matter what you did.
01:03:27.199 --> 01:03:33.519
And even the braking automatically kind of slow, it was really slow on the inputs, giving you like a slow input feed.
01:03:33.679 --> 01:03:44.559
And now you can still do that by slowly squeezing it with the like with the haptics net, but if you put your finger like foot to the floor, it's instant throttle or instant break if you want now.
01:03:44.800 --> 01:03:54.400
So that helps in the end, it doesn't matter because if you can really need that, you can throw your throttle down and and take as hard as you want.
01:03:54.480 --> 01:03:56.400
So it but it's made it better for them.
01:03:56.719 --> 01:04:05.360
Well, that's what I was just saying, as I think that's allowed them to controller players to be able to keep up right now with the new update.
01:04:05.599 --> 01:04:15.519
Because if they didn't make that change for the controller, people on wheels and that full throttle coming out of the corner, no oversteer, just fucking see you later, motherfucker, you kind of thing.
01:04:15.760 --> 01:04:23.440
The controller guy is gonna be doing the same thing, but it's gonna be like because they have that delay input on the controller.
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:32.000
So they'd be they'd be like, what the fuck, you know, and more likely to probably die-bomb you because they know they're gonna be slow out of the corner compared to you.
01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:40.239
So what we're saying is there was one good, maybe two good things in the update, other than I mean, three good things.
01:04:40.400 --> 01:04:42.800
We do get new conversations with people.
01:04:43.519 --> 01:04:46.079
Um it's it's a great one, guys.
01:04:46.239 --> 01:04:51.360
Umgratulations! Congratulations, Canada.
01:04:51.599 --> 01:04:53.599
Whistler in the scapes now.
01:04:53.920 --> 01:04:54.960
Yeah, thanks, thanks.
01:04:55.119 --> 01:05:02.400
I was gonna say one of the big things I was looking forward to was they've uh reset all the ranking boards in the music rally for us.
01:05:02.719 --> 01:05:04.320
Oh, yeah, they have.
01:05:04.719 --> 01:05:05.519
So can't wait.
01:05:05.760 --> 01:05:11.920
Now I'm gonna have to go in, go into the music rally and and reset all of those times that I did.
01:05:12.079 --> 01:05:19.280
Yeah, they've also done that with the world more excited for have never been more excited for setting a new time in music rally.
01:05:19.440 --> 01:05:19.599
Yeah.
01:05:19.920 --> 01:05:20.320
Exactly.
01:05:20.480 --> 01:05:23.280
Like who like fuck many on the comma.
01:05:23.679 --> 01:05:31.760
I know what you guys are doing this week, but uh you can see that's where I'll be all week long redoing all my music rallies because I am nice.
01:05:32.000 --> 01:05:33.519
It's the best, man.
01:05:35.599 --> 01:05:36.239
Jesus.
01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:40.719
Like yeah, so if you do have time, McDonald, do it, do a reaction video, please.
01:05:40.960 --> 01:05:41.360
Please.
01:05:41.599 --> 01:05:44.480
Um I think it would do very well.
01:05:44.800 --> 01:05:49.920
I think you're gonna be along the lines of every other major streamer out there.
01:05:52.800 --> 01:05:58.480
I would say test the McLaren, you know, or the uh AMG, excuse me, you know that car the best.
01:05:58.559 --> 01:05:59.760
That that's your go to.
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:02.480
That would probably be the first card to test.
01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:06.000
Um and just uh yeah.
01:06:07.119 --> 01:06:18.800
I mean I probably would have ran that race, uh you know, the um the manufacturer's exhibition series, but all these leagues you you guys got me to win this uh this community.
01:06:19.119 --> 01:06:20.480
Oh yeah, don't tell you.
01:06:23.039 --> 01:06:24.719
Boy, was that exciting.
01:06:24.960 --> 01:06:27.760
It was that's not it that's not sarcasm either.
01:06:27.840 --> 01:06:34.079
That was I I went through and just did highlights of the race because I wasn't able to watch the whole thing because I was doing things last night.
01:06:34.239 --> 01:06:35.840
So wow.
01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:37.920
It was an exciting race.
01:06:38.239 --> 01:06:43.519
Yeah, no, it it really was, and uh, you know, especially.
01:06:43.920 --> 01:06:47.760
I'm always torn with that stuff, because like go ahead, sorry, go ahead.
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:50.880
I was just gonna say what Shreddy said he didn't practice at all.
01:06:51.119 --> 01:06:58.639
He got on, he did like the multiplier and just jumped on and was able to fucking do that now.
01:06:58.880 --> 01:07:00.639
Well, so um hats off to him.
01:07:00.960 --> 01:07:06.639
I mean a little birdie told me that that might not entirely be the story.
01:07:06.719 --> 01:07:08.320
But no, yeah.
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:13.679
If you listen if you listen, he's like somebody who mentioned I thought I saw you a couple of years.
01:07:13.840 --> 01:07:19.039
Yeah, but he was he was doing the j he said he was doing the junior with an engine swap.
01:07:19.280 --> 01:07:29.199
So totally different car, but again, still uh you you have familiarity with the everything that way too, so it's still not overly true.
01:07:29.440 --> 01:07:30.559
Yeah, and then we have to.
01:07:30.960 --> 01:07:35.199
I'll say, Mike, your qualifying time, your qualifying time was like out of this world.
01:07:35.360 --> 01:07:36.880
I was like, I was like, what?
01:07:37.119 --> 01:07:38.079
Mike was flying.
01:07:38.960 --> 01:07:40.559
Mike is flying right now.
01:07:40.719 --> 01:07:41.920
Mike is doing a great job.
01:07:42.000 --> 01:07:44.320
And how many times did you pass old man Pip?
01:07:44.639 --> 01:07:47.119
Three or three times during that race.
01:07:47.360 --> 01:07:51.920
Fucking after we after we had an a little incident that uh I won't get into.
01:07:52.559 --> 01:07:53.199
Yeah.
01:07:53.519 --> 01:07:59.840
Yeah, like it was Mike's job just to pass old man Pip as many times as possible in that race.
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:02.480
Mike was just Mike was so fast there.
01:08:02.719 --> 01:08:06.239
Mike, Mike had a couple of uh incidents.
01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:19.680
So it definitely tune in to go to the McNaughty channel and tune into the uh tune in to the Red Bull extravaganza, the Red Bull Junior extravaganza, because it was an exciting race last night, that's for sure.
01:08:19.920 --> 01:08:22.000
Yeah, it went better than I thought it was.
01:08:22.960 --> 01:08:30.079
So I had uh some incidents here and things happen, butnot, but overall it was actually a pretty good race.
01:08:30.720 --> 01:08:34.800
Physics changed aside, the the whole thing, and that was actually pretty good.
01:08:34.960 --> 01:08:40.000
So I I practiced with you guys and I absolutely hate that track.
01:08:40.479 --> 01:08:45.920
Dude, to go in that direction with those cars, it was perfect.
01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:47.439
It was it was good.
01:08:47.680 --> 01:08:53.439
It was I just I hate the whichever direction I just at all.
01:08:53.840 --> 01:08:56.399
I don't like it either, but uh yeah, it was good overall.
01:08:56.880 --> 01:08:58.159
Especially the track I'm gonna do.
01:08:58.800 --> 01:09:04.319
Actually, Grand Valley Highway 1, the normal direction, is like one of my favorite tracks in this game.
01:09:04.479 --> 01:09:10.399
Oh, but it's a bullet to the airpin is like I don't know.
01:09:10.560 --> 01:09:14.640
There's something about it that I just like I I like it so much.
01:09:15.520 --> 01:09:19.680
I I don't like I don't like racing at Grand Valley, but I do like driving it.
01:09:21.039 --> 01:09:25.039
I think it's actually a very beautiful track, especially when you get the sunset in there.
01:09:25.199 --> 01:09:27.039
Um just driving around that track.
01:09:27.119 --> 01:09:28.239
It it's it's great.
01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:46.079
The flow of that track just does not racing, it's it is good, like doing say time trials, that kind of but it I me it probably just comes down in my mind like it's more like the the driving standards of the average person you end up having to drive there, and I don't like racing there because of that.
01:09:46.720 --> 01:09:51.680
Yeah, I I haven't liked I haven't liked the flow of that track from the first time I raced it.
01:09:51.760 --> 01:09:52.880
I just don't like the flow of it.
01:09:52.960 --> 01:09:56.159
I don't think it flows well, at least not for my driving style.
01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:01.520
You know, but I'm there's a couple of tracks like that in the game for me too.
01:10:01.600 --> 01:10:02.479
It's just like meh.
01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:03.039
Yeah.
01:10:03.680 --> 01:10:05.680
Good track, nice track, but yeah.
01:10:06.560 --> 01:10:07.119
Yeah.
01:10:07.279 --> 01:10:09.199
I I mean I have to agree with that.
01:10:09.359 --> 01:10:15.039
So so zero of ten points goes to the new update.
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:16.000
Yeah.
01:10:17.279 --> 01:10:18.159
You know, we were hoping.
01:10:21.439 --> 01:10:23.199
I like a three or four.
01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:23.920
Alright.
01:10:24.079 --> 01:10:27.279
We'll give it a we'll give it a two out of ten.
01:10:28.079 --> 01:10:32.079
Because we got, I mean, we got new scapes, we got new competition.
01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:36.239
I gotta go at least two and a half to three because they got the music rally reset.
01:10:36.319 --> 01:10:41.359
So the caterum is a good addition.
01:10:41.760 --> 01:10:43.760
Yeah, I like the caterum edition.
01:10:43.840 --> 01:10:46.399
The other cars are sort of sort of a eh, whatever.
01:10:46.479 --> 01:10:50.319
It's cool because it's it's Gran Turismo history and Japanese cult calls.
01:10:51.279 --> 01:10:52.000
I'm totally cool with that.
01:10:52.960 --> 01:10:53.680
Yeah, like that.
01:10:54.000 --> 01:10:55.279
Totally cool with those.
01:10:55.439 --> 01:11:00.399
Uh yeah, of course, we want race cars, but I have no problems with really the cars they brought out.
01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:03.520
Um we just got some race cars, so it's not the end of the world at the moment.
01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:03.920
There's no.
01:11:04.079 --> 01:11:10.560
Well, that's what makes me mad though the most is we just got those sweet hypercars and then they changed the physics.
01:11:11.039 --> 01:11:11.439
Yeah.
01:11:11.680 --> 01:11:12.479
That's what kills me.
01:11:12.720 --> 01:11:15.199
Uh, I'd be interested interesting to see how those drive.
01:11:15.520 --> 01:11:18.640
I want to get in those and go drive around and see how it's.
01:11:23.199 --> 01:11:31.439
The fact that well, Bob Agito, he won VIP and they were in the hypercars, and he's like, the physics fucking suck.
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:31.920
Oh, okay.
01:11:32.399 --> 01:11:32.720
Yeah, yeah.
01:11:32.800 --> 01:11:33.520
What were they driving?
01:11:33.680 --> 01:11:35.039
What hypercar were they in?
01:11:35.760 --> 01:11:37.520
They were in the the newer ones.
01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:40.640
The race before was in the 16 models.
01:11:40.960 --> 01:11:41.119
Okay.
01:11:41.760 --> 01:11:44.720
Um, but yeah, he he's like, the update sucks.
01:11:45.439 --> 01:12:02.239
Yeah, it's no, what what we were expecting was a BOP change when it came to you know, bringing the cars closer together, and what they gave us was you know, after two years of not touching the physics, two years.
01:12:02.640 --> 01:12:03.600
Go watch Tijny.
01:12:04.239 --> 01:12:08.239
They haven't changed the physics in two years, and then they come out with this.
01:12:09.680 --> 01:12:16.319
See, and I thought they were gonna go the other direction, more towards iRacing and like ACC when they were talking about.
01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:18.319
But there might be a physics change.
01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:19.439
That's the direction I like.
01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:20.560
Windows is testing.
01:12:21.199 --> 01:12:22.319
Yeah, I I thought it was a lot of things.
01:12:22.479 --> 01:12:32.159
Well, supposedly they tested when all the guys were in Tokyo for the World Series live event during that week because they were at the studios of PD.
01:12:32.640 --> 01:12:37.600
That I heard down the grapevine that they were uh putting some testing in.
01:12:38.399 --> 01:12:41.439
But they also have their own version of the game.
01:12:42.079 --> 01:12:43.680
They don't play on GT7.
01:12:44.319 --> 01:12:52.960
So those guys in Tokyo, they they went there, right, and they tested at PD's lab or whatever, and they said, Yes, Kaz, this is good.
01:12:53.119 --> 01:12:53.680
Right.
01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:54.800
This is the same thing.
01:12:54.960 --> 01:13:00.560
Did they say that's because they thought it was good, or they said that it was good because they're like, Oh, I like coming up to World Series.
01:13:01.439 --> 01:13:04.159
That's well, I think that's there's a majority of them.
01:13:04.399 --> 01:13:11.520
I think majority of them got too complacent with and just happy to be there in that way that they just shut their mouth and being like, yep, yep, yep, yep.
01:13:11.600 --> 01:13:11.760
Yep.
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:15.279
Too many yes men, and and that's why they're always there.
01:13:15.520 --> 01:13:17.199
Um and they get away with stuff.
01:13:17.279 --> 01:13:36.560
Like, because we've all seen things over the years, some of the the the OG drivers that are always there have done some pretty questionable things that if one of us ever got to the World Series and did it would never go back again because of trying to promote fair play, but because it was the some of their star drivers, it nothing really happens.
01:13:36.800 --> 01:13:37.439
You know?
01:13:38.239 --> 01:13:40.960
They're like, we're in the house, we don't want to be disrespectful.
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:42.159
I went, dude, this sucks.
01:13:42.319 --> 01:13:43.439
Judo chop.
01:13:43.920 --> 01:13:45.279
Yeah, right to the throat.
01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:52.800
Tap up you know, like digit wasn't happy with it, he wasn't happy with it.
01:13:53.840 --> 01:13:54.079
Yeah.
01:13:54.800 --> 01:13:57.920
Sammy Snake, I see why they did it.
01:13:58.159 --> 01:13:59.359
He's a you know.
01:14:00.000 --> 01:14:12.159
Uh oh, I can definitely see why they did it because they pandered to the masses, and the masses of this game, like we said about the other day, was the how many like there's what, 20, 30 million copies of the game?
01:14:12.239 --> 01:14:13.199
I don't know, maybe a multiple.
01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:16.479
It's like 15 million.
01:14:16.880 --> 01:14:18.319
15 million copies sold.
01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:25.039
Uh the majority a lot of sold like single player mode people, plus all the online racing is a small part.
01:14:25.840 --> 01:14:27.359
There's two million monthly.
01:14:27.920 --> 01:14:34.560
Yeah, and 1.3 1.4 million of low B, C, D drivers, the average person.
01:14:34.640 --> 01:14:35.840
No, not a problem.
01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:44.319
And what they did is made it so that it makes the game easier so they can have a better race for what their your level is.
01:14:45.520 --> 01:14:47.760
Who's the voice for those people, right?
01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:54.479
So like yes, the B and the C drivers, yeah, the vast majority of drivers in this game are at that rank.
01:14:54.800 --> 01:15:03.840
But the the the loudest voices are the people and the people who have the most following or the largest following are A plus drivers, right?
01:15:03.920 --> 01:15:04.079
Yeah.
01:15:04.399 --> 01:15:10.960
So like who A plus drivers are the ones that the A plus drivers are the ones that are advertising their game.
01:15:11.199 --> 01:15:11.920
Yeah, exactly.
01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:19.680
But who's who's telling them that hey, us B and C and D drivers are are we need help?
01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:21.439
Like who's the guy who's saying that?
01:15:21.600 --> 01:15:21.760
Right?
01:15:21.840 --> 01:15:23.600
Like, is it like someone like Just Hun, right?
01:15:23.680 --> 01:15:27.279
Just Hun is like a B or C driver or something like that, right?
01:15:27.359 --> 01:15:33.359
Yeah, well that's kind of like what it's it's kind of depending on your follow, like in a way.
01:15:33.439 --> 01:15:36.399
Like, so someone like Digit, I think, and like even uh Tizny.
01:15:39.279 --> 01:15:43.039
And Tijny come out saying it's it's dog crap.
01:15:43.359 --> 01:15:49.439
Because they're uh like A plus higher competitive drivers.
01:15:50.000 --> 01:16:05.760
And uh not all are the greatest drivers under their like communities, but they're all people in their communities are there because they're trying to become more say elite, better drivers, uh higher standard quality driving with all the guides and and and teachings and stuff that they do.
01:16:05.920 --> 01:16:23.920
And then on the other side, the other ones that are say more entertaining and creative, like I love I love Rory to death, but his community is filled with the drivers that needed the help that aren't in there to be elite drivers, they just they're just there to follow him and that, and then like to build a nice friendly community.
01:16:24.079 --> 01:16:28.560
And those are the ones that he's like, even you know, he's not against it because he's gonna be.
01:16:28.720 --> 01:16:30.960
I asked Rory Friday morning what he thought.
01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:40.399
Yeah, because he's not trying, he doesn't want to discourage and and turn away his average Joe community.
01:16:40.640 --> 01:16:41.680
He's trying to get 500,000.
01:16:42.079 --> 01:16:43.920
I'm not saying average Joe in a bad way.
01:16:44.159 --> 01:16:49.199
They're there it's a it's a very it's the majority of the Grand Turismo drivers.
01:16:49.439 --> 01:16:58.319
I mean, not that when have you when have you seen Rory take a stance?
01:16:58.640 --> 01:16:59.840
Like that's right.
01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:03.199
He did he did once two years ago.
01:17:03.439 --> 01:17:04.079
Yeah.
01:17:06.399 --> 01:17:13.359
Because he paying, he caters he caters to that 1.3 million that are the low B C D drivers.
01:17:13.520 --> 01:17:15.039
And nothing yet, it's great.
01:17:15.119 --> 01:17:19.520
People, like everybody needs their their their period, like yeah, it's I I love him for that.
01:17:19.680 --> 01:17:25.520
But what what was what was the stance that he took?
01:17:26.239 --> 01:17:28.159
Um I can't remember.
01:17:28.720 --> 01:17:39.520
I think it was it was the when they I can't remember if it was a BOP update or a physics update that they had a couple years ago, and he was against it.
01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:43.600
He was like so then maybe he just feels that way too, right?
01:17:43.840 --> 01:17:44.239
Yeah, yeah.
01:17:44.479 --> 01:17:49.520
Like if he was able to say that like back then that it was like bad, then like you know, maybe just think about it.
01:17:52.239 --> 01:17:57.439
Also back then, he didn't he wasn't going for 500,000 subscribers, too.
01:17:57.600 --> 01:17:58.159
Yeah.
01:17:59.520 --> 01:18:08.720
It's not to say that he's not like he's very he's very neutral, he keeps things very neutral, like and tries to be the positive and the negative kind of thing.
01:18:09.039 --> 01:18:18.560
So that's why you never really have him taking, say, a strong stance in that aspect, because he doesn't want to alienate, he's trying to be that big community.
01:18:18.800 --> 01:18:22.319
You know, I mean when he started, he he was just there.
01:18:22.479 --> 01:18:29.199
Now he's got the vast majority of GT viewership easily.
01:18:30.319 --> 01:18:33.920
He also has a family to feed and exactly controversy.
01:18:34.159 --> 01:18:36.000
He he put everything into it.
01:18:36.319 --> 01:18:45.840
He's gotta go all out, and the only way to go all out is to kind of be that neutral thing, like in and not be too like positive negative to anything at all.
01:18:46.640 --> 01:18:49.520
I mean, well we see we've seen what that can do for the city.
01:18:51.119 --> 01:18:56.880
But you can see it in him if you watch see him in the streams and that you can see where he's just like no.
01:18:57.439 --> 01:19:02.800
But he bites his tongue, you like you can see it in his face, like he doesn't necessarily hide it in that way.
01:19:03.279 --> 01:19:05.119
Is he on the payroll with PD?
01:19:06.720 --> 01:19:07.119
No, I don't know.
01:19:07.279 --> 01:19:12.079
I don't think necessarily, but uh he'd be probably pretty pretty close.
01:19:12.239 --> 01:19:13.840
Yeah multiple times.
01:19:14.079 --> 01:19:14.479
Yeah.
01:19:14.640 --> 01:19:14.960
Yeah.
01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:15.439
Yeah.
01:19:15.760 --> 01:19:18.880
Well, is super GT on the payroll?
01:19:19.520 --> 01:19:20.239
I don't think so.
01:19:20.479 --> 01:19:23.359
If he's not on the payroll, he's super close to it.
01:19:23.760 --> 01:19:27.359
He's not yeah, but he's not really into it lately himself.
01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:34.720
Yeah, I mean Pete would want to, you know, save his graces because he's the largest content in a million years.
01:19:35.439 --> 01:19:39.680
Well, yeah, I'd be surprised if they didn't ask him and Jimmy to be testing this.
01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:40.640
Yeah.
01:19:40.800 --> 01:19:43.039
Well, we talked about this the other day too.
01:19:44.800 --> 01:19:46.880
Don't ask Jimmy to test it because he'll tell you the test.
01:19:47.039 --> 01:19:47.520
Oh, exactly.
01:19:47.760 --> 01:19:55.039
That's the problem, is it'll be the super big conflict because he'll tell you it's straight out, you just put out the biggest dog shit fucking thing in the world.
01:19:55.279 --> 01:19:58.880
And because he's already kind of we talked about this the other day on on air.
01:19:59.039 --> 01:20:00.239
Like, what the fuck is going on?
01:20:00.720 --> 01:20:01.520
What the hell is that?
01:20:01.680 --> 01:20:03.680
Like, basically on air multiple times.
01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:05.840
I hope this week he does test the game.
01:20:06.079 --> 01:20:07.439
I hope I do too.
01:20:07.680 --> 01:20:10.239
Because he was playing GT5 and shit.
01:20:10.640 --> 01:20:12.079
Playing the old stuff.
01:20:12.319 --> 01:20:14.239
Well, yeah, wonder why.
01:20:16.640 --> 01:20:20.239
Because he may maybe he had access to early as well because he's part of the team.
01:20:20.319 --> 01:20:20.960
Like, you know what I mean?
01:20:21.039 --> 01:20:23.039
And he was just like, you can't put this, you can't be serious.
01:20:23.199 --> 01:20:25.039
Oh, yeah, just shut your fucking mouth, kind of thing.
01:20:25.199 --> 01:20:31.199
Because I mean he's just losing parkour people, the PC and going to iRacing still.
01:20:31.439 --> 01:20:35.119
I mean, this is just gonna push more people go in that direction.
01:20:35.520 --> 01:20:39.920
But not on a lot of their numbers stay the same.
01:20:40.239 --> 01:20:41.680
Every month it stays the same.
01:20:41.840 --> 01:20:55.279
And they're like, do we're gonna lose we're gonna get even more people now because one thing maybe it's going to probably change the landscape of, in a way, of the GT World Series stuff.
01:20:55.600 --> 01:20:59.680
Because the the people that will walk away will be those top drivers.
01:20:59.840 --> 01:21:00.000
Right.
01:21:00.319 --> 01:21:01.279
Handfuls of them.
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:05.520
Um I didn't see Simon playing.
01:21:05.600 --> 01:21:07.680
He didn't he didn't play Saturday night.
01:21:08.239 --> 01:21:15.359
Well, I'm curious to see Singapore now and see how those cars react and all that shit.
01:21:17.760 --> 01:21:21.520
I'm wondering how different their game is compared to ours.
01:21:22.399 --> 01:21:24.399
The top layer was Windfire.
01:21:25.119 --> 01:21:26.079
Yeah, it's different.
01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:27.119
It's a different game.
01:21:27.600 --> 01:21:28.800
Whole different structure.
01:21:29.199 --> 01:21:34.880
Well, and then going back to I played a I I just decided to hop in and do a little bit of ACC.
01:21:34.960 --> 01:21:35.760
Oh my gosh.
01:21:36.000 --> 01:21:36.159
Right?
01:21:37.119 --> 01:21:40.479
Number one, my my steering wheel feels dead.
01:21:40.800 --> 01:21:43.279
Steel feels dead in Gran Turismo.
01:21:43.439 --> 01:21:49.760
Other than the little then uh other than the little road uh feel that you get.
01:21:50.159 --> 01:21:54.159
Um and you even get feel through the steering wheel for the the front wheels.
01:21:54.319 --> 01:21:57.600
Other than that, it's crap.
01:21:57.760 --> 01:21:58.319
It's crap.
01:21:58.399 --> 01:21:59.439
It's a numb wheel.
01:21:59.600 --> 01:22:01.840
And when I hop into ACC, guess what?
01:22:01.920 --> 01:22:02.560
It was not a numb.
01:22:03.119 --> 01:22:04.960
Boy, it was really doing exactly what was happening.
01:22:05.199 --> 01:22:08.720
Me and Ty were like, dude, oh my god, it's so powerful.
01:22:09.039 --> 01:22:09.760
Night and day.
01:22:10.239 --> 01:22:15.279
I was downloading it and they were in there driving, and it was like the only thing right out of Sean's mouth right away.
01:22:15.359 --> 01:22:17.359
It was like, oh my god, the feedback of this thing.
01:22:17.600 --> 01:22:18.960
Dude, it's insane.
01:22:19.359 --> 01:22:25.279
Dude, the amount of feedback in it and the amount of ability to really screw things up.
01:22:25.520 --> 01:22:30.880
Oh yeah, we lost it and totally wrecked the car to where my steering wheel would not go straight.
01:22:31.119 --> 01:22:32.960
It would not turn left.
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:34.479
Yeah, hit the garage.
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:35.439
Big yeah.
01:22:35.680 --> 01:22:37.680
Oh, dude, it was it was insane.
01:22:37.760 --> 01:22:38.960
Yeah, losing the car.
01:22:39.279 --> 01:22:41.760
Oh, you had to be easy on that throttle.
01:22:42.000 --> 01:22:43.520
Come on corners.
01:22:44.000 --> 01:22:44.880
Yep, yep.
01:22:44.960 --> 01:22:47.760
I still haven't finished my career, so I was like, Brands hatch.
01:22:47.840 --> 01:22:48.640
Oh my gosh.
01:22:48.880 --> 01:22:52.720
Brands hatch in the uh Merc in the AMG.
01:22:52.960 --> 01:23:02.479
Oh boy, number one, that car, I not being in VR, whoa, Rand, it really throws you.
01:23:02.560 --> 01:23:08.319
It's I have to watch I have to be in VR in cinematic mode to play that game because I don't have a monitor.
01:23:09.039 --> 01:23:11.760
Dude, it took like at least 20 minutes to mount it.
01:23:11.920 --> 01:23:12.880
It took a long time.
01:23:13.039 --> 01:23:23.439
I mean, I was setting some good lap times, but it'd be like good lap time, and then next lap I'm off in the dirt because I didn't break soon enough or I accelerated too quickly.
01:23:23.600 --> 01:23:25.279
You know, that's that's how it was.
01:23:26.880 --> 01:23:28.479
Unlike just turn the wheel more.
01:23:29.199 --> 01:23:29.840
Yeah.
01:23:33.359 --> 01:23:40.560
And the feeling of when you turn the wheel too far in that car, and you could feel the complete loss of grip when you turn it too much.
01:23:40.800 --> 01:23:41.920
You know, it was great.
01:23:42.159 --> 01:23:43.680
Which we had kind of before.
01:23:44.000 --> 01:23:44.479
We did.
01:23:44.720 --> 01:23:45.039
Yeah.
01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:46.079
Yeah, we did.
01:23:46.159 --> 01:23:46.319
Yep.
01:23:46.560 --> 01:23:47.039
I missed the old.
01:23:48.239 --> 01:24:02.880
Now we're reverting to a game non-VR, which we said we'd never do because we just want to drive and have that feeling again, and to know you need to build some skill to actually drive the car properly, not just foot to the floor, crank the real as hard as you can.
01:24:03.279 --> 01:24:06.079
Cross your fingers for LMU and VR.
01:24:06.640 --> 01:24:08.399
Yeah, they've said they're not real interesting.
01:24:13.199 --> 01:24:13.600
No plans.
01:24:13.840 --> 01:24:14.319
That's sad.
01:24:14.640 --> 01:24:15.600
No plans.
01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:18.880
And it's I think we we talked about it.
01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:26.560
I think it's because uh PD and Sony and that like they they don't want to open up the the platform of racing to VR.
01:24:26.640 --> 01:24:28.880
They want the Grand Charismo, the good stuff.
01:24:29.039 --> 01:24:29.520
Yeah.
01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:34.319
Because they got some other crappy VR games for driving on the street, but that's it's sad.
01:24:34.720 --> 01:24:43.920
That alone the non-VR on console for any other racing game, really, is the one factor I bet there's still a lot more, even single player people.
01:24:44.079 --> 01:25:06.960
Like they could lose probably a good chunk of um people for VR alone in driving, if like ACC, like a lot of single fucking right, they go over and play the single player campaign, do your own little single player campaigns all the time in in different cars, you know, because it's actually a a great adjustable skill level with AI and everything as well.
01:25:08.079 --> 01:25:20.720
The average person is not gonna be ought to go on ACC, learn how to do all the stuff, which is a little hard, but learn how to do it with through the practice and training it gives you, and still do top-tier AI in that game.
01:25:21.039 --> 01:25:24.560
Oh, dude, yeah, that AI is so hard in that game.
01:25:25.760 --> 01:25:27.840
And you think the PowerPoint Shorter 3 is?
01:25:28.399 --> 01:25:31.199
ACC's AI is way, way, way better.
01:25:31.359 --> 01:25:31.680
Oh yeah.
01:25:32.000 --> 01:25:35.439
A lot of people did not race um manual complicated.
01:25:35.680 --> 01:25:36.880
Do we have stats for that?
01:25:37.279 --> 01:25:38.880
Is there stats for that race?
01:25:39.199 --> 01:25:39.359
Okay.
01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:40.000
Yeah.
01:25:41.039 --> 01:25:46.640
The top Porsche was um what do you score?
01:25:46.800 --> 01:25:50.159
Like two hundred and fifty-one points?
01:25:56.399 --> 01:26:01.359
Uh 241, excuse me, was forty-six was the top horsh.
01:26:02.640 --> 01:26:09.920
Um fire and four hundred and sixty-six are they still landing a hundred points?
01:26:12.239 --> 01:26:12.560
They are.
01:26:12.800 --> 01:26:13.039
Okay.
01:26:13.279 --> 01:26:20.640
And then some guy Amaya and a Subaru 449, and Daka and a Ferrari 422.
01:26:21.119 --> 01:26:23.359
Carson, I know Carson raised with him.
01:26:23.600 --> 01:26:25.119
He's got 415.
01:26:25.680 --> 01:26:26.960
He was fourth.
01:26:27.680 --> 01:26:34.399
Um yeah, there's hardly any names that I recognize in here.
01:26:38.000 --> 01:26:43.600
So people hopped on and didn't like the update, so they decided not to do manufacturers.
01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:58.239
I would have been more jazzed for manufacturers if they had done an update and they had, you know, taken a little bit of power away from the Porsche and Ferrari made things a little bit closer, I would have been I would have been happy to.
01:26:58.479 --> 01:27:05.039
I and I I had set my mind on going AMG anyway, because it's not a bad car, and I'm pretty, you know, I can I can drive it.
01:27:06.720 --> 01:27:08.560
So I have a question, Todd, quickly.
01:27:08.640 --> 01:27:16.000
If you know you might know this, is the couple guys that were super that that uh ranked high, were they in the WRX or the BRZ?
01:27:16.880 --> 01:27:18.079
I believe the BRZ.
01:27:18.479 --> 01:27:22.319
Well, the Genesis ten out of the top 20 are the half-screen.
01:27:22.479 --> 01:27:23.039
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:27:23.119 --> 01:27:32.159
But I'm just wondering, because I was thinking with the physics change the way it was, I'm in my head the other day, I was thinking that that BRZ might actually be a really good car now.
01:27:32.479 --> 01:27:40.479
Because yeah, it's a little slow, but its ability through the corners to carry speed in that is phenomenal, but it's a little sketchy.
01:27:41.600 --> 01:27:44.880
If it's not sketchy, that's that's exactly what I was thinking.
01:27:44.960 --> 01:27:51.760
If it's more uh all the cars more stable, it might f rip through corners now, like there's no tomorrow.
01:27:52.079 --> 01:27:54.159
And just be slow on the street on the streets.
01:27:54.560 --> 01:27:56.800
Well, there was only top twenty.
01:27:57.119 --> 01:27:59.680
Yeah, I see yes, I mean, but I see I see uh two of them.
01:28:00.159 --> 01:28:02.880
In in the on the not top 20, but I see yes.
01:28:03.279 --> 01:28:10.399
So I'm just not saying it's going to be a dominant car, but that car could be very competitive now compared to a lot of other cars as well.
01:28:10.800 --> 01:28:12.960
Because I'm thinking about that handling issue.
01:28:13.199 --> 01:28:14.479
That's one of the reasons I don't like it.
01:28:19.760 --> 01:28:20.560
I love Hollis.
01:28:20.720 --> 01:28:27.439
Hollis goes, I go and spend all this money on new steering wheels, and this is what happens to the game.
01:28:28.640 --> 01:28:30.319
He goes, Why does something happen?
01:28:30.399 --> 01:28:35.600
Every time I get you something for your rig, something happens to the game that makes you not want to race.
01:28:40.239 --> 01:28:42.640
And we still have Red Bull to keep doing.
01:28:42.960 --> 01:28:46.000
You know, so I mean, I'm like, don't worry.
01:28:46.159 --> 01:28:46.640
Don't worry.
01:28:46.720 --> 01:28:47.840
The wheel will be used.
01:28:48.079 --> 01:28:49.439
The wheels will be used.
01:28:49.840 --> 01:28:53.279
The top ranking for the Nissan is 196 coins.
01:28:53.840 --> 01:28:55.439
Um yeah, like we'll be doing.
01:29:00.000 --> 01:29:05.920
I I used Porsche in one of my accounts, and then I picked Nissan because I thought that's what Jermaine was going to use.
01:29:06.319 --> 01:29:11.760
Um but uh I I didn't use it, so I just used the Porsche in my European account.
01:29:12.000 --> 01:29:13.279
How did the Porsche feel?
01:29:13.439 --> 01:29:15.199
Dude, I awful.
01:29:15.920 --> 01:29:17.520
Super under steery.
01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:18.159
Yeah, dude.
01:29:18.319 --> 01:29:24.479
Dude, I'm looking at the AMG rankings and I see that it's uh Marvin is uh at 215.
01:29:24.720 --> 01:29:24.960
Yeah.
01:29:25.439 --> 01:29:27.279
I mean AMG score in our region.
01:29:27.760 --> 01:29:28.319
Yeah.
01:29:28.479 --> 01:29:28.640
Yeah.
01:29:28.960 --> 01:29:31.199
I'm like, I'm like, let me let me log in real quick.
01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:31.520
Yeah.
01:29:33.840 --> 01:29:34.079
Right.
01:29:34.319 --> 01:29:34.800
No offense.
01:29:36.079 --> 01:29:36.479
No offense.
01:29:36.800 --> 01:29:40.800
Dude, total players 25,953 for that race.
01:29:40.960 --> 01:29:41.920
That's down a bit.
01:29:42.399 --> 01:29:43.600
Oh yeah.
01:29:45.680 --> 01:29:46.720
That's what you get.
01:29:46.880 --> 01:29:49.279
That's what happens when you do something like this.
01:29:52.239 --> 01:29:59.439
I was gonna say, I was gonna say that's usually like daily races, you know what I mean, like kind of thing, which are usually pretty low compared to the the attendance.
01:29:59.520 --> 01:30:07.359
I think we've had like um not that that it's that's a lot, but I think it was c it's usually closer to like 100k.
01:30:08.079 --> 01:30:13.760
Okay, let's go to Suzuka then participants in July when they last oh shit, that was even lower.
01:30:14.079 --> 01:30:18.800
17,000 for the last event in July.
01:30:19.199 --> 01:30:21.039
This is this is what I'm worried about.
01:30:21.279 --> 01:30:34.720
I'm worried that with the McLaughlin League starting, that they're either going to do I'm hoping they do an update, but I hope they do it after qualifying, or I hope they do it in the next week or two.
01:30:37.119 --> 01:30:38.720
I hope there's some adjustments.
01:30:39.039 --> 01:30:39.760
There's gotta be.
01:30:40.239 --> 01:30:42.159
There's gotta be some adjustments done.
01:30:42.880 --> 01:30:48.159
I think if they're gonna do it, they're gonna do it right after the uh the manufacturer comes in.
01:30:48.239 --> 01:30:53.359
Right before the the nations, because nations is probably gonna come right after this.
01:30:53.600 --> 01:30:55.039
Yeah, so I think that I agree.
01:30:55.359 --> 01:30:56.239
Is that Thursday?
01:30:56.399 --> 01:31:04.000
So yeah, so that Thursday, if it comes that Thursday, that means that the next day is NRL pre-qualifying.
01:31:04.239 --> 01:31:06.640
Yeah, yeah, that's that's that's what I'm worried.
01:31:06.800 --> 01:31:07.840
That's what I'm worried about.
01:31:08.000 --> 01:31:13.600
That that you do all this practice getting used to the new physics, and then they do the update.
01:31:13.840 --> 01:31:14.319
Yeah.
01:31:15.119 --> 01:31:42.399
And then pre-qualifying the next day, which means I mean everybody's on the back foot, but for those who are able to hop on to practice, which sometimes I'm not able to, you know, I gotta I gotta say though, for for the guy so like uh for Sean, like your situation, if you if you pre-qualify early and then there's a physics change, then we'll have to redo it after just to make sure you're on the same situation as everybody else.
01:31:42.800 --> 01:31:44.640
That that's the caveat with that stuff.
01:31:44.880 --> 01:31:48.720
Okay, it'll have to wait till I get back because I'm gonna be gone for a week.
01:31:48.960 --> 01:31:52.239
I leave the we'd still have you do it, right?
01:31:54.159 --> 01:31:55.600
We don't know if it'll change or not.
01:31:55.760 --> 01:31:55.920
Right.
01:31:56.159 --> 01:32:00.399
But we'll just we'll still do it, but then if we find out that it changes, we'll have to have you do it again.
01:32:00.960 --> 01:32:02.560
Yeah, once you get back, you'll have to redo it.
01:32:02.800 --> 01:32:04.399
Yep, that works for me.
01:32:04.640 --> 01:32:04.960
Yeah.
01:32:05.520 --> 01:32:15.760
If anybody like me, I'm only gonna be doing league stuff unless they can revert things and make things where they should be, not back into the fucking Stone Age fucking stuff.
01:32:16.000 --> 01:32:19.359
Um yeah, dailies are a bust.
01:32:19.600 --> 01:32:20.319
Oh, yeah.
01:32:20.560 --> 01:32:27.920
I mean, with the amount of outrage, right, that that a lot of you know prominent voices in the community have had about this, right?
01:32:28.000 --> 01:32:31.039
Like, there's no way they can just be like, okay, this is gonna be good for two years.
01:32:31.279 --> 01:32:31.680
Right, yeah.
01:32:31.840 --> 01:32:31.920
Right.
01:32:32.000 --> 01:32:32.640
Like they did last year.
01:32:32.880 --> 01:32:34.239
Well, that happened on the last one.
01:32:34.399 --> 01:32:36.159
The last change they did with the physics, right?
01:32:36.239 --> 01:32:40.159
They went real hardcore, people didn't like it, so they adjusted.
01:32:40.640 --> 01:32:41.840
They toned it back a little bit.
01:32:42.159 --> 01:32:45.039
A little bit, and then I mean it was good.
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:46.079
I didn't mind.
01:32:47.119 --> 01:32:48.720
It wasn't perfect, perfect, but it was good.
01:32:48.960 --> 01:32:51.279
At least there was consequences for your actions.
01:32:51.520 --> 01:32:58.079
Yeah, at least the driving made sense and was somewhat realistic.
01:32:58.239 --> 01:33:12.000
If you were to put a side-by-side video of a real car versus a GT7 side by side, the breaking points are the same, throttle input, it was all very clustering angle.
01:33:12.159 --> 01:33:14.079
Now it it doesn't even mimic that.
01:33:14.159 --> 01:33:16.560
It is it doesn't even matter, it doesn't really matter.
01:33:16.800 --> 01:33:23.439
Yeah, the the the art of of of like braking and acceleration and and cornering is gone.
01:33:23.680 --> 01:33:24.319
You know what I mean?
01:33:24.399 --> 01:33:28.720
Like you could be all these people that told this you would show you the how to turn in properly.
01:33:28.800 --> 01:33:30.239
It's like I don't give a fuck anymore.
01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:31.439
Turn the wheel.
01:33:32.000 --> 01:33:37.680
That's why on on the last physics update, why I was so annoyed by like group four races.
01:33:37.840 --> 01:33:44.720
Like I never wanted to like be in group four because I was like, oh, I could just like put a brick on the pedal and I'll be alright.
01:33:45.199 --> 01:33:46.159
Yes, exactly.
01:33:46.399 --> 01:33:47.199
Yeah, group three.
01:33:47.840 --> 01:33:49.439
Everything is turned towards group four now.
01:33:50.880 --> 01:33:51.279
Yeah.
01:33:54.399 --> 01:33:56.720
When they nerfed the group three cars, right?
01:33:56.800 --> 01:33:59.119
When they all made them all slower.
01:33:59.760 --> 01:34:02.319
I was like, oh my god, dude, what are we doing?
01:34:02.479 --> 01:34:04.640
Like we need to go the other direction.
01:34:05.279 --> 01:34:05.840
Yeah.
01:34:06.159 --> 01:34:06.640
Yeah.
01:34:06.960 --> 01:34:07.199
Yeah.
01:34:07.279 --> 01:34:14.000
We need to be looking at current lap times for current lap times for GT3 cars.
01:34:14.479 --> 01:34:18.000
The cars equal, equal, equal, and see what the lap times are.
01:34:18.159 --> 01:34:27.840
If we're doing close to those lap times in Gran Turismo 7 as you're doing in real life, then you've gotten you've gotten pretty close to what it should be.
01:34:28.319 --> 01:34:30.239
That's what that's what they should be going off from.
01:34:31.199 --> 01:34:39.520
Right, but if so the lap times can be like made to get to you know close to whatever the total lap time is on a particular circuit.
01:34:39.840 --> 01:34:43.600
But what what the problem is is like the feel of it, right?
01:34:44.159 --> 01:34:51.439
Like if you if you can just stomp on the on the throttle and stomp on the brake to get that, then like it's artificial.
01:34:51.840 --> 01:34:53.520
It is artificial, totally artificial.
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:54.319
So yes.
01:34:54.479 --> 01:35:04.479
So what's what what's more important in my mind is like not not that the if if a if a lap is one minute and five seconds that you get one minute and five seconds, it's how you got to that lap time.
01:35:04.640 --> 01:35:05.199
Yeah, no, no, no.
01:35:05.760 --> 01:35:06.800
What did you need to do to get there?
01:35:07.119 --> 01:35:08.079
Yeah, absolutely.
01:35:08.640 --> 01:35:09.199
Absolutely.
01:35:09.439 --> 01:35:10.640
Yeah, it's retarded.
01:35:11.039 --> 01:35:18.640
Well, what sucks is what sucks is to get two new beautiful Fanatech uh club sport wheels that are amazing.
01:35:20.560 --> 01:35:24.640
And then and then ECC.
01:35:24.800 --> 01:35:25.520
Yeah, there's other games.
01:35:26.399 --> 01:35:27.680
Oh no, absolutely.
01:35:27.840 --> 01:35:33.520
You know, you spend your time customizing the wheel, getting the paddles right, where everything is perfect.
01:35:34.720 --> 01:35:44.319
And then you you get this game and it's just like you can't, you know, you're just turning you're just turning a rim because there's no real feedback from the cars.
01:35:44.479 --> 01:35:48.800
There's you don't get the enjoyment of driving.
01:35:49.199 --> 01:35:50.239
You don't get the enjoyment.
01:35:50.399 --> 01:35:54.800
I'm sorry, there is no enjoyment in driving these cars at all.
01:35:55.439 --> 01:36:08.079
I mean, Mike and I on Thursday were just blasting into corners and hitting our brakes and just seeing what the limits were, and I was like, I I mean, a hundred meters closer to the corner is what we were breaking.
01:36:08.479 --> 01:36:08.960
How?
01:36:09.520 --> 01:36:10.159
How?
01:36:10.640 --> 01:36:11.199
Why?
01:36:11.680 --> 01:36:12.319
It was wild.
01:36:13.840 --> 01:36:14.960
Well, that was like Friday.
01:36:15.119 --> 01:36:21.439
We were having a practice, and then 20 minutes into it, Bells was like, Yeah, this is no fun.
01:36:21.520 --> 01:36:22.720
I'm gonna dip out, guys.
01:36:22.800 --> 01:36:26.239
And me and Todd are like, dude, I just I can't I can't do it right now.
01:36:26.479 --> 01:36:34.399
No, it's there's no there's no the because the fun the the fun is driving the car on the line.
01:36:34.880 --> 01:36:37.119
There is no line, they've taken the line away.
01:36:37.279 --> 01:36:40.239
Oh yeah, yeah, you know, push the limit.
01:36:40.880 --> 01:36:43.279
The skill gap has been negated.
01:36:43.600 --> 01:36:52.880
You know, it's given everything to the people that don't have a lot of skill, and it makes that them better than they their skill level actually is by far.
01:36:53.520 --> 01:37:03.199
And it takes all the fuck all that extra skill and practice and things that we've all learned and taken it all away from us, and it's brought everybody together kind of thing.
01:37:03.279 --> 01:37:06.640
It's like in a way, and you can't teach new tricks, man.
01:37:06.720 --> 01:37:07.119
I need to see.
01:37:07.439 --> 01:37:13.520
It's handicapped the actual drivers and forzed the fuck out of it for everybody else.
01:37:13.680 --> 01:37:14.159
Yeah.
01:37:14.399 --> 01:37:25.359
You know, it's and I at the same time I understand why it's not right, uh it's retarded, and I think even like the casual driver will get tired of it.
01:37:25.680 --> 01:37:30.319
It might be good for them and they oh yeah, but the the fun, the enjoyment that is gone now.
01:37:30.560 --> 01:37:31.680
They'll start losing interest.
01:37:32.479 --> 01:37:36.560
Trying trying to control a car that is difficult to control.
01:37:36.720 --> 01:37:41.840
Not that the Red Bull Juniors are difficult to control, but the Red Bull Juniors will bite you if you do something wrong.
01:37:42.000 --> 01:37:42.319
Yeah.
01:37:43.520 --> 01:37:45.520
I mean they will seriously bite you.
01:37:46.319 --> 01:37:52.800
So but like like McNaughty said, who was in Kaz's ear that was begging for these fucking changes?
01:37:53.359 --> 01:37:53.920
PlayStation.
01:37:55.119 --> 01:37:55.920
I think PlayStation.
01:37:56.000 --> 01:37:58.239
They want more numbers.
01:37:58.960 --> 01:38:01.680
And that's the million dollar question.
01:38:02.239 --> 01:38:04.000
Who was calling for this shit?
01:38:04.319 --> 01:38:06.239
Especially on a game that's God.
01:38:06.319 --> 01:38:10.319
I wish we could have him on and ask him that.
01:38:10.720 --> 01:38:12.479
Sony strong arm anybody?
01:38:13.119 --> 01:38:13.920
What's happening?
01:38:14.239 --> 01:38:19.680
It's it's just so bizarre because they're like, oh, okay, so so look at it from this perspective, right?
01:38:19.760 --> 01:38:22.640
So Sony, let's say Sony is strong arming him, right?
01:38:22.720 --> 01:38:26.880
And they're like, you gotta make this game easier because it's gonna drive sales to the roof.
01:38:27.119 --> 01:38:29.680
Sony doesn't have a great track record, you know.
01:38:29.840 --> 01:38:35.199
Like when they're talking about like getting rid of physical copies of games and the outrage of that, right?
01:38:35.359 --> 01:38:42.720
Like there's like they they don't have like a recent history that you know inspires like confidence in like what they say.
01:38:42.880 --> 01:38:48.399
So they're gonna they're gonna go and they're gonna tell Polyphony Digital, like, hey no, you need to make this easier.
01:38:48.479 --> 01:38:50.960
It's gonna get people to buy it for sure.
01:38:51.199 --> 01:39:00.960
And then the first thing that happens when you roll out these updates is that your top players, your most well-known players and content creators, all say that this is crap.
01:39:01.039 --> 01:39:02.800
Yeah, like yeah.
01:39:03.199 --> 01:39:06.560
Come on, like we're not gonna learn our lesson here, right?
01:39:07.520 --> 01:39:13.600
Well, today's actually the 23rd through the 30th is a boycott of PlayStation.
01:39:13.840 --> 01:39:14.640
Yeah, blackout.
01:39:15.199 --> 01:39:18.880
The no physical disc, yeah, blackout, whatever they're calling it.
01:39:19.039 --> 01:39:30.479
Um, but nobody's supposed to uh you know play PS uh 5 and shit, trying to make a statement and saying, hey, we want physical copies moving forward.
01:39:32.720 --> 01:39:34.720
I missed that memo, sorry, I'll be gaming.
01:39:34.960 --> 01:39:36.319
Yeah, I don't mean about that either.
01:39:36.399 --> 01:39:39.520
But like if it if it does some good, then that's good, man.
01:39:39.680 --> 01:39:42.079
Because like nowadays like you don't own anything.
01:39:42.159 --> 01:39:54.479
Like you guys are talking about cars and all that kind of stuff, and like, you know, the the fact that you know Ford is lobbying to like get uh you know security features added so that way local mechanics can't work on the cars, right?
01:39:54.640 --> 01:40:08.640
Yeah, and and they you know the other aspect of it is like okay, like I was I was at a bar with one of my buddies like a couple months ago, and you know, we we were done for the night, and I like started remote started my car, and he's like, Oh yeah, I don't have that anymore.
01:40:08.720 --> 01:40:10.399
Like, I gotta pay a subscription fee for that.
01:40:10.560 --> 01:40:13.279
And I was like, dang, it's that it's like he did seats.
01:40:13.520 --> 01:40:14.640
They took it away from him.
01:40:16.079 --> 01:40:19.439
Yeah, he can't pay a subscription to remote start his car.
01:40:19.520 --> 01:40:21.760
It's a new it's a newer Honda that he leaps.
01:40:22.000 --> 01:40:22.560
Shut up.
01:40:23.359 --> 01:40:27.119
Honda Honda is like, yo, I can't buy I can't buy a new car.
01:40:27.279 --> 01:40:28.560
I can't buy a new car.
01:40:28.720 --> 01:40:37.119
I I I told my wife, I was like, I gotta really look at the economics of like just you know, replacing the engine and starting from zero again on this car.
01:40:37.279 --> 01:40:37.600
Yeah.
01:40:37.840 --> 01:40:50.159
Because like I can't, I can't like I will punch a hole in the wall if somebody tells me that I need to pay a subscription fee in order to, you know, heat a seat for the control.
01:40:54.560 --> 01:41:05.520
It's gonna cost you$120 a year to have your in uh yeah, your your navy or whatever, yeah, or Apple CarPlay, yep, that's gonna be$4.95 a month.
01:41:05.680 --> 01:41:10.319
That's gonna be, you know, I mean it was already flash a firmware down to your fucking car.
01:41:10.399 --> 01:41:10.720
Yeah.
01:41:10.880 --> 01:41:11.439
And guess what?
01:41:11.760 --> 01:41:12.239
It's shut off.
01:41:12.640 --> 01:41:19.920
That they uh that they would say, okay, after ten years, we're engineering this car to like fail after ten years.
01:41:20.079 --> 01:41:28.159
But like now, like you can't even like they built it, it's in the car, but you're not gonna be able to just pay the one time for access to it.
01:41:28.479 --> 01:41:28.560
Yeah.
01:41:30.800 --> 01:41:34.159
Fuck I think I don't know, I don't know where I heard this.
01:41:34.239 --> 01:41:44.159
Did you guys say it or did I see it online where like BMW like tried you know inserting ads into their infotainment system for a little bit, and then they got a backlash for that?
01:41:44.479 --> 01:41:45.760
Oh yeah, BMW.
01:41:45.920 --> 01:41:49.279
Yeah, BMW put in the Spider-Man movie ads.
01:41:49.520 --> 01:41:54.159
And they were like, oh, no, we just did this, we just did this because.
01:41:54.720 --> 01:42:04.399
Not because the movie it used to be about like building a new feature that's like, you know, i um what's the word I'm searching for?
01:42:04.560 --> 01:42:05.920
Like productivity, right?
01:42:06.000 --> 01:42:16.800
Like the productivity like increases, you get better things, and then you're you're able to charge more for those better things, and like that's the way like the world worked, right?
01:42:16.880 --> 01:42:26.479
You pay for that premium, but now it's like we're gonna make the same car, but we're gonna squeeze you for like everything, yes.
01:42:26.960 --> 01:42:34.319
And uh if you if you uh lease your car, the dealership can remotely disable your vehicle now for mispayments.
01:42:34.880 --> 01:42:35.199
Right.
01:42:35.439 --> 01:42:38.079
Well, I I'm sure even on the lease, even with the bank.
01:42:38.239 --> 01:42:39.680
Yeah, just too.
01:42:40.239 --> 01:42:42.000
Financing, yeah, you can make it a month or two behind.
01:42:42.159 --> 01:42:42.319
Yeah.
01:42:42.720 --> 01:42:43.680
You can't start your shit.
01:42:43.920 --> 01:42:46.159
Is it is it is it illegal to do that?
01:42:47.039 --> 01:42:47.359
No.
01:42:47.680 --> 01:42:47.840
No.
01:42:51.840 --> 01:43:00.880
Everything that contains like technology now, like we we're no longer in a situation where people are like, okay, what's what's going to be better?
01:43:01.039 --> 01:43:03.680
What's the next thing that like people haven't discovered yet?
01:43:03.840 --> 01:43:04.159
Right.
01:43:04.319 --> 01:43:08.720
Now it's like just get as much money out of what you already have as possible.
01:43:08.880 --> 01:43:10.640
And then gave me more and more control.
01:43:11.119 --> 01:43:12.399
Eliminate the workforce.
01:43:12.800 --> 01:43:13.279
Yeah.
01:43:13.600 --> 01:43:17.760
Because uh, you know, we don't we don't want mom and pop shops doing anything.
01:43:17.920 --> 01:43:18.159
Yeah.
01:43:18.399 --> 01:43:23.600
So everything I said, I think a couple times, it's like PlayStation, you got a PlayStation, yeah.
01:43:23.760 --> 01:43:25.439
You don't own that anymore.
01:43:25.680 --> 01:43:30.000
You actually pay that one-time fee to license the hardware.
01:43:30.159 --> 01:43:42.479
And at any time, if they find that you're in for violation of any of their rules that nobody read, and could be anything, they can remotely remotely break your hardware.
01:43:42.800 --> 01:43:49.920
But I will say this, and like this is no way a an a statement that advocates this type of behavior, okay?
01:43:50.000 --> 01:43:51.680
So I'm just gonna say that first.
01:43:52.079 --> 01:43:56.960
But there are always going to be ways to crack a system, right?
01:43:57.119 --> 01:44:00.800
And then and install homebrews and things of that nature, right?
01:44:01.039 --> 01:44:04.560
Jailbreak it, homebrew, all that kind of stuff, right?
01:44:04.720 --> 01:44:06.079
It's just a question of when.
01:44:06.319 --> 01:44:26.880
And I think that the more that that these industries set up situations in which you truly do not have uh ownership of things, whether that's video games, cars, movies that you you know download or whatever, the more that you do not own these things, the more that people are going to consider piracy not stealing.
01:44:27.920 --> 01:44:31.279
So it's gonna create a bigger divide.
01:44:33.279 --> 01:44:33.840
Yeah.
01:44:35.840 --> 01:44:38.800
It'll just cause a big divide between people regardless.
01:44:39.439 --> 01:44:47.039
With the with the whole you know, music thing, like you know, back in the day when we had like you know, Naster, Kazah, LimeWire, all that stuff, right?
01:44:47.199 --> 01:44:50.800
To download those, you know, virus full MP3s.
01:44:53.439 --> 01:45:02.239
So like you know, that stuff went away not because like not because like you know, uh, you know, the IRS cracked down, right?
01:45:02.319 --> 01:45:09.119
Like nobody nobody was gonna stop ripping DVDs by that seeing that IRS warning on that in the beginning of the video.
01:45:09.279 --> 01:45:09.520
Right?
01:45:09.680 --> 01:45:17.039
They stopped because it became more convenient, right, to like pay like you know,$9.99 to Netflix and you can watch unlimited stuff.
01:45:17.199 --> 01:45:17.520
Right.
01:45:17.680 --> 01:45:17.840
Right?
01:45:18.000 --> 01:45:18.399
Yeah.
01:45:18.960 --> 01:45:23.199
But now they're doing the subscription, but they're not giving you limited stuff.
01:45:23.520 --> 01:45:24.000
Yeah.
01:45:25.439 --> 01:45:27.199
I find that fucking bullshit too.
01:45:27.279 --> 01:45:27.840
It's just like what?
01:45:27.920 --> 01:45:29.199
I gotta pay more for this stuff.
01:45:29.359 --> 01:45:30.239
I already pay for it.
01:45:30.319 --> 01:45:30.880
What the fuck?
01:45:30.960 --> 01:45:42.079
Yeah, you know, or the one thing I hate is the like you pay for these subscriptions, and now you have to pay because you don't want to fucking you just want to watch videos, you want to do whatever, and now you have to pay more to get commercial.
01:45:42.399 --> 01:45:44.880
I bought your subscription to get away from that.
01:45:45.119 --> 01:45:48.239
And now you're fucking blackmailing me for more.
01:45:48.880 --> 01:45:54.960
Like so I have Verizon as a as a as a as a telephone carrier, and it pays for my Disney Plus.
01:45:55.279 --> 01:45:59.600
I got a notification that you know the Disney Plus window is like$27.99 now.
01:45:59.760 --> 01:46:06.720
And I'm like, it really is true that when cord cutting was a thing when they were first talking about it like a decade ago, right?
01:46:06.880 --> 01:46:16.720
It was supposed to be like, oh, you have like three channels that you want to watch, like TNT, ESPN, I don't know, uh, you know, Fox CBS and NBC for the football, right?
01:46:16.880 --> 01:46:17.279
Yep.
01:46:17.520 --> 01:46:21.760
And and like you're like, oh good, I only need five channels anyway.
01:46:21.840 --> 01:46:25.600
I could just pay like two dollars per channel and have my channels.
01:46:25.920 --> 01:46:29.119
But then, you know, that wasn't making the dollars and cents for these companies.
01:46:29.199 --> 01:46:35.600
So now they yeah, you have to get a bundle, even though you're not paying the cable company.
01:46:35.840 --> 01:46:41.199
Like you still have to pay the the uh the Disneys and the uh ESPNs.
01:46:41.920 --> 01:46:44.319
Yeah, the Disneys and the ESPNs of the world, right?
01:46:44.399 --> 01:46:44.560
Yeah.
01:46:44.800 --> 01:46:50.960
So now to have to be able to watch all the things you want to watch, you have to pay more than you did before with just the cable package.
01:46:51.279 --> 01:46:52.159
Oh, it's wild.
01:46:52.399 --> 01:46:58.079
That's why I won't change my phone plan because I have it grandfathered in that that's included in my price.
01:46:58.239 --> 01:47:00.000
I don't pay extra for it.
01:47:00.239 --> 01:47:08.720
So my phone plan I keep on the same just so I can keep that free Disney Plus ESPN Hulu thing.
01:47:08.880 --> 01:47:09.039
Yep.
01:47:09.279 --> 01:47:13.840
Because yeah, they took it away and then you had to pay extra for it, and it's like fuck, dude, I'm not changing it.
01:47:14.159 --> 01:47:14.720
I remember that.
01:47:14.960 --> 01:47:21.600
My my phone plan is a real unlimited data plan, like completely unlimited.
01:47:21.680 --> 01:47:25.119
And they've tried to get me to change it year after year after year.
01:47:25.920 --> 01:47:26.800
Nope, I'm gonna stay on this.
01:47:27.199 --> 01:47:27.760
Sticking to it.
01:47:28.079 --> 01:47:31.439
Because they can't, they on my plan, they can't restrict me.
01:47:31.600 --> 01:47:31.760
Right.
01:47:32.079 --> 01:47:33.039
It's fully unlimited.
01:47:33.920 --> 01:47:42.720
You know what's really gonna be the turning point where where if they if they think about changing this, America's gonna be on fire.
01:47:45.119 --> 01:47:48.239
You know, the fiber connections and the cable, the cable connections.
01:47:48.319 --> 01:47:49.600
No, I mean like literally everywhere.
01:47:49.840 --> 01:47:50.960
Yeah, fiber needs.
01:47:52.000 --> 01:48:15.600
If you start changing like data limits and throttling on people's home internet, like not the cell phone stuff, like the home internet to your house, the cable or the fiber or the DSL, if you're still on DSL, they start charging more for that, just to be able to use the internet, that's when that's when everything burns.
01:48:15.920 --> 01:48:18.159
That's when everything burns, in my opinion.
01:48:18.479 --> 01:48:18.800
Yeah.
01:48:19.199 --> 01:48:25.439
It's bad enough that they do that, but at least you have your steady home relaxation that and you don't want to be like halfway.
01:48:30.239 --> 01:48:31.840
Well, let's say pre-physics update.
01:48:32.000 --> 01:48:41.359
You're playing Grand Turismo, you're having a great time, and you know, all of a sudden, like everybody starts lagging because your Wi-Fi got throttled by your ISP.
01:48:41.760 --> 01:48:42.880
Like, come on, man.
01:48:43.119 --> 01:48:44.640
Like, we can't.
01:48:44.880 --> 01:48:51.840
I hope I'm not giving anybody ideas, but like that is uh I don't know, that's where the world is heading.
01:48:52.239 --> 01:48:53.199
Not to head on a bad thing.
01:48:53.359 --> 01:48:54.079
It is, it is.
01:48:54.239 --> 01:49:06.960
Again, anyway they can make one dime you, they will find a way, and um I'm sure it's been talked about and it'll probably be implemented or not.
01:49:07.760 --> 01:49:11.920
So Kaz, just make sure that you're you know you're listening right now.
01:49:13.199 --> 01:49:14.079
Roll it back.
01:49:14.159 --> 01:49:14.640
Yeah, roll it back.
01:49:14.800 --> 01:49:15.760
Hit the roll back button.
01:49:15.840 --> 01:49:19.199
Yeah, stand your ground against zero one seven zero.
01:49:19.520 --> 01:49:20.560
Tell them to piss off.
01:49:20.800 --> 01:49:21.199
Yeah.
01:49:21.520 --> 01:49:24.560
Well, not that just that, just for the average player.
01:49:25.199 --> 01:49:34.960
Like, stand your ground against those guys or whoever, but us people who like to drive and race, and we want good physics.
01:49:35.119 --> 01:49:37.279
We don't want you know, arcade.
01:49:37.760 --> 01:49:37.920
No.
01:49:38.319 --> 01:49:41.359
Anybody can go towards our previous.
01:49:42.319 --> 01:49:44.319
Maybe I'm just misthinking here.
01:49:44.399 --> 01:49:48.239
Didn't they previously have it like you had an arcade in simulation mode?
01:49:49.039 --> 01:49:49.359
Yes.
01:49:49.680 --> 01:49:50.319
Or is that something else?
01:49:51.520 --> 01:49:51.680
You did.
01:49:52.079 --> 01:49:56.960
You used to have uh yes, you used to have uh simulation and arcade mode.
01:49:57.119 --> 01:49:58.000
Yeah, go back to that.
01:49:58.159 --> 01:49:58.479
Yeah.
01:49:58.800 --> 01:49:59.119
Yeah.
01:50:00.079 --> 01:50:01.520
So you want the common version that doesn't matter.
01:50:02.640 --> 01:50:03.600
I think that was in sport.
01:50:09.439 --> 01:50:09.920
But yeah.
01:50:12.800 --> 01:50:16.720
Give the people that kind of thing if you want fucking but yeah, give us fucking something.
01:50:17.199 --> 01:50:26.880
I wonder if they saw how well Forza Horizon 5 did on sales and then it's supposedly it's coming to P or six is coming, I think, in a couple months.
01:50:27.119 --> 01:50:28.399
Yeah, we gotta compete with that.
01:50:28.880 --> 01:50:32.479
So it's like, oh, look how well this sold and this did.
01:50:32.640 --> 01:50:35.520
So people are really fucked that game.
01:50:35.680 --> 01:50:37.039
I don't like that game.
01:50:37.279 --> 01:50:38.239
I didn't get that game.
01:50:38.399 --> 01:50:39.600
Yeah, but your son does, right?
01:50:39.680 --> 01:50:40.000
Oh yeah.
01:50:40.319 --> 01:50:41.199
Drew Bob is fucking.
01:50:42.800 --> 01:50:47.279
Yeah, and that that's who they're catering to is the 12 and 14 year olds who don't know nothing about.
01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:52.640
Not us old guys for the most part that have supported them since I was fucking 12.
01:50:53.039 --> 01:50:57.600
Yeah, and have spent thousands of dollars on our rig and set up and shit like that.
01:50:57.760 --> 01:51:02.960
It's the 10-year-old with the controller who plays the game an hour to a week.
01:51:03.439 --> 01:51:05.119
And let us have our thing.
01:51:05.840 --> 01:51:06.399
Yeah.
01:51:07.279 --> 01:51:12.399
I just wish we could get Kaz on to know his real feelings on it and like what's the actual thing.
01:51:12.640 --> 01:51:18.479
Nobody's ever had a real like conversation with that guy, and if they do, it's all sugarcoating softball.
01:51:19.439 --> 01:51:29.039
It'd be great if we could uh if we got him on, get Terry to translate so they don't fucking try and oh well he said this kind of thing.
01:51:29.520 --> 01:51:30.640
He could tell us the truth.
01:51:30.720 --> 01:51:32.479
Like, oh no, he's saying fuck that.
01:51:32.560 --> 01:51:34.800
He wish he could bring more stuff.
01:51:35.359 --> 01:51:36.079
Imagine that.
01:51:36.640 --> 01:51:41.840
Yeah, but Terry doesn't the whole time saying this fucking company Sony.
01:51:43.039 --> 01:51:44.399
Terry loves update.
01:51:45.279 --> 01:51:46.079
We gotta get him on.
01:51:46.319 --> 01:51:47.760
I was on with him on that.
01:51:47.840 --> 01:51:48.800
I want to hear.
01:51:49.359 --> 01:51:55.520
I was on with um uh miscaffee, and uh somebody's like, hey, what how's the new update?
01:51:55.600 --> 01:51:59.680
And I'm like, uh the new update's awful, the game is broken.
01:52:00.000 --> 01:52:02.239
Muscophy's like, yep, I agree.
01:52:02.399 --> 01:52:07.039
And then I'm like, yep, you can't do this and that, and probably going to ACC.
01:52:07.119 --> 01:52:09.279
And Scope's like, yep, I totally agree.
01:52:09.359 --> 01:52:13.119
And Terry's like, oh, I guess you're not enjoying it as much as I am.
01:52:13.840 --> 01:52:14.079
Shit.
01:52:14.159 --> 01:52:16.079
It's like that is interesting.
01:52:16.239 --> 01:52:22.239
I mean, also to be fair, you I don't I have been given a verdict either way, because I haven't tried it yet.
01:52:22.319 --> 01:52:22.399
Right.
01:52:22.560 --> 01:52:24.239
Like I'm just going based on what I'm told.
01:52:24.319 --> 01:52:25.600
That is what you're hearing.
01:52:26.000 --> 01:52:28.079
I might sit in the chair and you you never know.
01:52:28.159 --> 01:52:30.960
I might be like, oh yeah, this is the best thread.
01:52:34.319 --> 01:52:34.960
Hope not.
01:52:37.039 --> 01:52:45.359
Some people in um Roland, he he put into chat GPT like what's the consensus in chat beats.
01:52:45.600 --> 01:52:49.439
This is like, yeah, most people like the new fucking physics and update.
01:52:49.840 --> 01:52:53.199
What tell chat GPT to list its sources?
01:52:53.600 --> 01:52:54.000
Right.
01:52:54.640 --> 01:52:55.279
Right.
01:52:56.319 --> 01:53:02.479
But you know, um so I he I think he asked it off Reddit reviews.
01:53:02.800 --> 01:53:06.159
So uh okay, that's probably okay.
01:53:06.239 --> 01:53:08.800
So that answers the question from all the way back before.
01:53:08.960 --> 01:53:14.239
Like if Reddit is saying that, oh yeah, this is great, then maybe they're tuned into that.
01:53:14.399 --> 01:53:14.880
Right.
01:53:15.119 --> 01:53:21.119
Because I I'm I don't I'm not in the uh I guess technically I am, but I don't look at it very often.
01:53:21.279 --> 01:53:28.079
Like when I go to the Grand Turismo uh 7 and Gran Turismo Reddits, like what I see is like, hey, what does this symbol mean?
01:53:28.239 --> 01:53:28.399
Right?
01:53:28.479 --> 01:53:29.760
And it's like the rain meter.
01:53:29.840 --> 01:53:31.920
And like that's the type of stuff that they ask in there.
01:53:32.000 --> 01:53:36.800
So like it's it's definitely like beginner friendly in that in that subreddit.
01:53:37.279 --> 01:53:38.560
Yeah, I've never been on Reddit.
01:53:39.520 --> 01:53:40.720
Neither of I.
01:53:41.840 --> 01:53:43.760
So um, yeah, I don't know about it.
01:53:44.159 --> 01:53:45.760
We got we got homework this week.
01:53:46.000 --> 01:53:50.239
Yeah, get on the get on the Reddit forms and change those outcomes.
01:53:50.640 --> 01:53:57.439
Um forget to ask uh Big Fat Racing what he thinks when he comes on next week.
01:53:57.600 --> 01:53:58.239
Oh yeah, we will.
01:54:00.000 --> 01:54:01.439
He doesn't like it either.
01:54:01.680 --> 01:54:10.159
Uh yeah, well I I know that already, but yeah, we'll we'll um we'll we'll ask him and and find out.
01:54:12.000 --> 01:54:19.600
But uh yeah, maybe we should get Terry on after uh Yeah, I want to hear why he likes it.
01:54:19.840 --> 01:54:21.600
Yeah, we get both sides.
01:54:22.640 --> 01:54:24.479
Both sides of the story.
01:54:24.800 --> 01:54:26.479
Hard hitting news.
01:54:28.159 --> 01:54:34.560
Alright, so I just did a little question to AI there, majority opinion, and where's your facts coming from?
01:54:34.800 --> 01:54:46.319
Um it says the majority is highly positive, but deeply divided on the the how to control the cars, and this comes from GT Planet Community Threads in Reddit.
01:54:52.720 --> 01:54:54.800
Maybe they're looking at that also.
01:54:55.680 --> 01:55:01.920
Um I need to go to GT Planet and see what Jordan and those guys think.
01:55:03.039 --> 01:55:06.479
Do you think they would tell the truth if they didn't if they liked it or not?
01:55:06.720 --> 01:55:06.800
No.
01:55:07.039 --> 01:55:07.920
They're too deep.
01:55:08.880 --> 01:55:10.640
Yeah, they're in with cows and shit.
01:55:10.720 --> 01:55:16.239
They don't wanna rock the ones toes or up Saddam, in my opinion.
01:55:18.000 --> 01:55:24.880
That's why I think like all those uh Pro Am races they have, um those are all the uh pocketed ones.
01:55:25.119 --> 01:55:25.600
Alright.
01:55:26.800 --> 01:55:28.720
All the guys that show up for that.
01:55:29.359 --> 01:55:29.760
Yeah.
01:55:30.800 --> 01:55:34.880
They have a good relationship and they don't wanna burn any bridges.
01:55:35.199 --> 01:55:48.640
But we we need Super GT and it would be nice if if Jimmy could could do a video on the update and give their honest opinion, not sugar code anything.
01:55:48.880 --> 01:55:59.359
And I think if those two were able to do it, then maybe it would change, but I I I I don't see a fucking change in I don't, unfortunately.
01:56:00.000 --> 01:56:16.880
It's funny because uh like I hope they do, and I but I have to lean towards Todd as well, like just the way that they are in past history and not the way they do things, like yeah, they've done this and that, but realistically uh if they're being pushed by Sony to for all this to happen, it's not going back.
01:56:16.960 --> 01:56:17.279
Yeah.
01:56:19.199 --> 01:56:25.039
If it was PD kind of trying to fix and balance things, thinking like in last times they went back on things they have done.
01:56:25.920 --> 01:56:30.159
It was minor stuff, it wasn't this kind of major, it was like slight variations.
01:56:30.239 --> 01:56:32.800
Uh yeah, it's a little too okay, we'll dial it back a little bit.
01:56:32.880 --> 01:56:35.039
So now everybody's like kind of a happy medium.
01:56:35.199 --> 01:56:36.079
This is an extreme.
01:56:36.319 --> 01:56:44.880
And this I'd have to hope it's not PD, because if it is, it's the most retarded thing they've ever done.
01:56:45.119 --> 01:56:49.840
I won't I I'd rather I'd be happier to find out it was Sony that pushed this.
01:56:50.479 --> 01:56:51.039
You know what I mean?
01:56:51.119 --> 01:56:52.960
Not that I'm happy with it to begin with, but you know what I mean.
01:56:53.600 --> 01:56:55.119
At least I'd have faith with PD.
01:56:55.359 --> 01:56:55.760
Yeah, it is.
01:56:56.399 --> 01:56:58.079
PD is like being strong armed.
01:56:58.239 --> 01:56:58.880
Yeah.
01:56:59.439 --> 01:57:08.319
If it comes down to numbers and stuff like that, and PD is being strong armed, and Kaz is not happy, and maybe, like you said, we translate some stuff in that into the whole time track.
01:57:08.399 --> 01:57:10.960
Kaz is like, this fucking Sony motherfuckers.
01:57:11.199 --> 01:57:12.880
This is not me, motherfuckers.
01:57:13.039 --> 01:57:30.640
I'm trying to like I I have Ferraris and this and that for you guys, and you know, like, and the guys just like, oh yes, we love this game, we love you, you know, like and whatever the fucking like, and he's he's he's badmouthing them saying we've been like in a way they're being stronghold, or if he's being behind closed doors being strong armed.
01:57:30.720 --> 01:57:39.760
You know, Kev's is on social media, he he just he doesn't do interviews, he doesn't divulge any information about this game.
01:57:39.920 --> 01:57:51.600
This is his baby, and yeah, he doesn't speak English even though he knows how to, which is that like which is the thing is like, yeah, it might be maybe that the best, like he but he could speak English perfectly fine.
01:57:51.760 --> 01:58:00.800
It just a little bit broken, like any anybody from a completely foreign country like that, like two opposite languages, kind of, you know.
01:58:01.199 --> 01:58:10.800
Um and the fact that he has a hundred percent translation all the time kind of makes me think that maybe there is a variation on the translation.
01:58:11.119 --> 01:58:19.039
You know, that maybe somebody needs to kind of, you know, listen and kind of or do word.
01:58:19.119 --> 01:58:26.399
Maybe we could get his his audio, get chat GPT to fucking, hey, can you translate what this guy's saying from Japanese to English?
01:58:26.640 --> 01:58:34.079
You know, maybe it can go through and listen to it and be and kind of figure out, you know, oh yeah, he's telling saying Sony's a piece of shit or something.
01:58:36.000 --> 01:58:37.920
Everything is so vague with him.
01:58:38.000 --> 01:58:42.319
It's very vague and well, I think it's very vague on purpose.
01:58:42.560 --> 01:58:43.920
Yeah, it has to be.
01:58:44.319 --> 01:58:46.239
Money, money, money, money.
01:58:46.880 --> 01:58:47.199
Money.
01:58:47.760 --> 01:58:50.319
So it's funny because like Sony said, Oh yeah, go ahead.
01:58:50.399 --> 01:59:01.359
We don't care, go be your own fucking company and stuff like that, and you know, and then realize that, oh, they're making a product, and then basically they just reeled them back in over the last years and stuff like that.
01:59:01.520 --> 01:59:03.119
Because PD is its own entity.
01:59:03.199 --> 01:59:05.760
It was it was like, here's our game, shut the fuck up and put it out.
01:59:06.000 --> 01:59:10.479
Well, do you think it got bad enough like Forza, where they had to shut it down?
01:59:10.640 --> 01:59:17.600
Motor like Forza is like got to the point where they had to shut down all servers and it just it's done.
01:59:17.760 --> 01:59:18.560
They hyped it up.
01:59:18.960 --> 01:59:25.279
Because there there's there's people like who love this game regardless.
01:59:25.439 --> 01:59:28.000
Yeah, no matter good or bad, whatever they do.
01:59:28.079 --> 01:59:32.880
It's like you're the franchise is so old compared to Forest.
01:59:34.479 --> 01:59:45.279
There's people that love Gran Turismo, the company, the game, and no matter what they do, they will stand by it right or wrong.
01:59:45.520 --> 01:59:47.600
It's I I agree, and it's the same.
01:59:47.680 --> 01:59:51.199
It's not it's to a lesser time-length extent, but like F1.
01:59:51.359 --> 01:59:51.680
Right.
01:59:51.920 --> 01:59:57.199
Like Grove, Grove Grove hated the hated the update, but after five or six years, oh, it's not bad now.
01:59:57.359 --> 01:59:59.119
Now he's once you get used to it.
01:59:59.760 --> 02:00:01.279
I can put up, I can put up with it.
02:00:01.359 --> 02:00:02.079
I could put up with it.
02:00:02.319 --> 02:00:03.680
Because he loved he loves the game.
02:00:03.920 --> 02:00:06.319
So at least he's full time too.
02:00:07.680 --> 02:00:09.680
Well, that too, so he's gotta like it.
02:00:09.760 --> 02:00:09.920
Right.
02:00:10.159 --> 02:00:15.279
And then, you know, your digit, he's gotta do it because this is his fucking job now.
02:00:15.520 --> 02:00:24.159
Fucking Sammy Snake, this is his job now, so he's gotta fucking play this game, whether you hate it or play ball.
02:00:25.039 --> 02:00:28.000
I'm curious too, because McNaughty, you have PMR.
02:00:28.960 --> 02:00:29.920
So I'd be curious.
02:00:30.239 --> 02:00:31.680
Yeah, yeah, he's never gone back there.
02:00:32.159 --> 02:00:33.439
Side by side video with that.
02:00:36.079 --> 02:00:36.960
That first day.
02:00:37.119 --> 02:00:39.600
I was so disgusted by the end of the day.
02:00:39.760 --> 02:00:43.520
And like, believe me, like I I wanted to keep going with it.
02:00:43.600 --> 02:00:50.239
Like, that stream that I had for PMR was like one of my most viewed like individual streams that I've ever done.
02:00:50.479 --> 02:00:52.159
And had a lot of hype.
02:00:52.399 --> 02:00:54.560
I wanted to really I I wanted to like it.
02:00:55.039 --> 02:01:05.840
I was like, I I was like, oh man, like this is gonna be it, this is gonna be good, this is gonna be my first, like real second sim racing game that I'm doing, and I was just like, I was just so disgusted.
02:01:06.000 --> 02:01:13.680
Forget the driving, I think it was disgusted with how it looked, how the menu navigation worked, how I couldn't see anything in the bottom right corner.
02:01:13.840 --> 02:01:17.439
So like I I was just like, oh man, I can't I can't do this.
02:01:17.520 --> 02:01:23.359
And like, you know, for me, it's like once once I've been disgusted by the game so hard.
02:01:24.880 --> 02:01:33.359
So that's since you and then since since you haven't played the new update, then that's also just before you do it, just sit back, take a moment, remember the good times.
02:01:33.520 --> 02:01:33.920
Right.
02:01:34.079 --> 02:01:36.000
Yeah, remember all those great battles.
02:01:36.640 --> 02:01:38.479
Yeah, remember do that.
02:01:38.560 --> 02:01:47.840
Remember all the good times, all those great battles, all the great feelings you had, so that you don't forget how disgusted you are after you play it, and be like, what the fuck just happened?
02:01:47.920 --> 02:01:48.079
Yeah.
02:01:48.880 --> 02:01:59.439
The last thing I want is for you guys to come on on the pod next week and then say, Yeah, uh, NRL season eight is cancelled and you've got to use name anymore.
02:02:02.720 --> 02:02:10.159
Ten minutes into a stream playing the update for the first time, live reactions like, alright guys, sorry, all refunds for the week, we're done.
02:02:13.920 --> 02:02:16.640
We're gonna turn everything over to ACC or LMU.
02:02:16.800 --> 02:02:21.279
Uh yeah, we'll just give us a couple more weeks, we'll we'll figure this out, but yeah, we're done.
02:02:21.600 --> 02:02:25.840
I will say I I am excited for LMU to next year.
02:02:26.079 --> 02:02:43.119
Like, I think I think like I don't know, for me, like I I've wanted to add like a second game to it, and like people are telling me to do ACC, and like I just never had the time, and I know that like the setups and all that kind of stuff is like kind of a task.
02:02:43.199 --> 02:02:47.680
Like one of the greatest things about Grand Church 7 is like you could just fire it up and be in a race and five.
02:02:48.159 --> 02:02:48.560
Exactly.
02:02:48.720 --> 02:02:49.279
Exactly.
02:02:49.840 --> 02:02:50.640
Plug and play.
02:02:51.119 --> 02:02:57.840
And okay, I'm gonna help out with this because yeah, ACC and stuff is uh uh is a difficult compared to the plug and play.
02:02:58.000 --> 02:03:01.199
But with technology comes advantages now.
02:03:01.600 --> 02:03:27.199
Anyone who has AC and has trouble with that stuff, you can now, because of AI, you can ask the AI what car you're gonna drive, at what track, and it will tell you a good stable setup by taking the majority of all the meta settings from all the websites around the internet and putting one together, and then asks you, let me know if I need to make changes.
02:03:27.439 --> 02:03:28.239
Do a few laps.
02:03:29.840 --> 02:03:32.479
Yeah, it's a you AI can be an engineer for you.
02:03:32.560 --> 02:03:38.800
Yeah, I have a slide out of the last core of this, blah, blah, blah, and it will help revamp everything in the settings for you.
02:03:38.880 --> 02:03:41.039
And it all you have to do is input what it tells you.
02:03:41.279 --> 02:03:42.800
Okay, and just give it feedback.
02:03:43.199 --> 02:03:48.960
So have your cell phone beside you, whatever, and it'll make that game so much easier for you.
02:03:49.199 --> 02:03:49.920
Hell yeah.
02:03:50.079 --> 02:03:51.760
Dude, I might have to try that.
02:03:52.000 --> 02:03:52.319
I know.
02:03:52.479 --> 02:03:53.279
That's what I'm thinking.
02:03:53.359 --> 02:03:55.279
I'm gonna try that later today.
02:03:56.159 --> 02:03:59.600
Get on some ACC, do some driving.
02:04:01.520 --> 02:04:03.199
Well, I think on that bomb shell.
02:04:03.520 --> 02:04:04.720
Woo, baby.
02:04:04.960 --> 02:04:06.800
Thanks for joining us, McNaughty.
02:04:06.960 --> 02:04:09.680
Excited for NRL season eight for sure.
02:04:10.079 --> 02:04:14.239
The only thing I'm excited for for uh GT7.
02:04:14.720 --> 02:04:17.840
That's the only thing I'll be playing in GT7.
02:04:18.079 --> 02:04:21.199
I'm gonna say this as well with the the league stuff can actually remain.
02:04:21.279 --> 02:04:32.720
Like, yeah, the game kind of it sucks ass with that, but can be kind of adjusted a little bit with leagues, and the quality of drivers can be still good with the league racing and exciting races.
02:04:33.039 --> 02:04:40.239
As for the rest of the game, GT7, daily races, menu, all that balance of power, absolute dog shit.
02:04:40.399 --> 02:04:43.520
Dog shit up the fucking yeah, yeah, anky.
02:04:46.399 --> 02:04:47.119
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:04:47.279 --> 02:04:48.880
Yeah, so you'll be fine, McNaughty.
02:04:49.520 --> 02:04:50.000
Yeah, yes.
02:04:50.159 --> 02:04:51.039
No worries, no worries.
02:04:51.359 --> 02:04:56.239

02:04:56.720 --> 02:05:01.680

NRL Season 8 coming up soon.
02:05:13.920 --> 02:05:14.159
Excited.
02:05:14.479 --> 02:05:15.760
Don't be that guy who misses out.
02:05:15.920 --> 02:05:16.239
Alright.
02:05:16.319 --> 02:05:16.560
Yep.
02:05:16.880 --> 02:05:17.199
Excited.
02:05:17.439 --> 02:05:18.399
Sweet Cherry.
02:05:18.720 --> 02:05:19.439
Sweet Cherry.
02:05:20.479 --> 02:05:21.920
Come on, is he?
02:05:22.800 --> 02:05:23.359
He should.
02:05:23.920 --> 02:05:25.920
He wants to be damaging real racing.
02:05:26.720 --> 02:05:27.199
This is it, right?
02:05:27.279 --> 02:05:28.239
Here's Sweet Cherry.
02:05:28.479 --> 02:05:28.960
This is it.
02:05:29.119 --> 02:05:29.439
I know.
02:05:29.520 --> 02:05:30.960
Hopefully we can get Toby too.
02:05:31.039 --> 02:05:32.079
We need to talk to Toby.
02:05:32.159 --> 02:05:33.520
I saw he was on plane.
02:05:34.000 --> 02:05:35.199
So we need to talk to him.
02:05:35.279 --> 02:05:36.720
We got Jimbo in there now.
02:05:36.800 --> 02:05:38.239
Hopefully we'll get Mike.
02:05:38.640 --> 02:05:40.720
I don't know if Roland's gonna be able to.
02:05:41.039 --> 02:05:42.239
I don't think Roland is.
02:05:42.479 --> 02:05:43.680
So Roland is.
02:05:44.000 --> 02:05:44.960
We get Toby.
02:05:45.039 --> 02:05:47.199
If Jermaine could, it would be great.
02:05:47.439 --> 02:05:49.199
But yeah, I'm excited.
02:05:49.359 --> 02:05:50.960
I'm excited for season eight.
02:05:51.199 --> 02:05:52.880
So thanks again, buddy.
02:05:53.199 --> 02:05:54.399
I I really hope I can.
02:05:54.640 --> 02:05:56.159
Yeah, thanks again, McNaughty.
02:05:56.399 --> 02:05:57.119
Love having you on.
02:05:57.760 --> 02:05:58.000
Yep.
02:05:58.159 --> 02:05:59.680
Always a pleasure, always a blast.
02:06:00.159 --> 02:06:00.880
Yep, good time.
02:06:01.279 --> 02:06:02.000
Next week.
02:06:02.880 --> 02:06:04.479
The problem is I fancy.
02:06:05.039 --> 02:06:08.239
I heard his uh I heard his smile falter.
02:06:09.279 --> 02:06:09.600
Yeah.
02:06:10.079 --> 02:06:12.560
I've heard my smile fault.
02:06:18.159 --> 02:06:21.039
Oh, oh, oh god, that's gonna be the first, I think.
02:06:21.359 --> 02:06:23.279
Unfortunately, that's the live reaction.
02:06:23.840 --> 02:06:25.680
I can't watch that not all your video.
02:06:26.319 --> 02:06:29.760
Live reaction might be the first time Ignati might not have a smile.
02:06:30.399 --> 02:06:33.439
Maybe, maybe maybe I can get uh uh what's the point?
02:06:33.680 --> 02:06:34.560
Was it TK Sniper?
02:06:34.720 --> 02:06:37.439
Who says he watches the leads of it not me because I'm too nice?
02:07:00.800 --> 02:07:01.920
All right, guys, have a good one.
02:07:02.800 --> 02:07:03.520
See you next Monday.
02:07:04.239 --> 02:07:05.520
Take that racing, baby.
02:07:05.600 --> 02:07:06.159
Let's go.
