FIND THE BEST TUTORIALS. TAKE THE FIRST STEPS. CONSTANTLY IMPROVE YOUR LAP TIMES.

Getting started in Sim Racing with the right equipment is a challenge, but once you are on the track and try driving with the assists turned off, there’s a myriad of new obstacles waiting for you.

I remember too well my first steps coming from Forza Motorsport 7 to Project Cars 2 and trying to race like the pros do. Oversteering when accelerating out of the corner, sliding off on the curbs, setting the FOV right… There’s lots to do, but the links below make it interesting and fun to learn sim racing step by step.

I discovered Matt York through his 50 (!) part tutorial series for Project Cars 2. Despite the PC2 focus there are more helpful videos to learn about sim racing in general, like understanding aerodynamics or learning how to properly overtake. I especially recommend the in-depth track guide for Assetto Corsa Competizione.
