    The idea behind this topic is to give the possibility for us as a community to compare real life recordings of onboard laps with simililar car-track combos in Automobilista 2 and giving the possibility to recreate these. Often reading discussions about how close real life onboards really come to the simulated reality was igniting the spark to support it with potential actual visual comparison! The topic will still surely remain its subjective character after all without having all the data at hand, so let's keep it civilized if discussions occur. :p

    Especially a helmet/visor-mounted camera, delivers a pretty good perspective for such comparisons. Post your real life suggestions and/or comparison sim-laps here. :)

    For a start here are "some" examples, what laps and car experiences could be recreated ingame, sorted by classes.

    GT3


    Not the same car, like in the game, but fitting perspective:

    Porsche GT3 Cup



    Stock Car 2020


    Also some "similar-ish" picks might be interesting.

    F-Retros:
    The 1974 Hesketh from James Hunt (F-Retro Gen1) driven by Delétraz at Monaco with Sim example:



    Tried somewhat similar car in the sim here (McLaren M23). Start the video, when the Hesketh video is at time stamp 0:31 (was at wrong grid spot and there is no formation lap). Sorry for the quality discrepancies, i'm not a content creator at all. :p

    Copersucar F5 (F-Retro Gen 2) at Donington Park

    Thanks @CrimsonEminence for putting these together - some great footage here :) I´ve made the topic a sticky and will be contributing with some references of my own.

    Quality onboards are a great way to gauge track accuracy and naturally car dynamics - I´d strongly recommend that people spend a little time studying these videos before engaging with pages and pages of physics discussions and topic after topic commenting on how car X should or should not behave, as often times people are firm believers in ideas that just aren´t so - some of these onboards are a really great reference of what sort of inputs and performances you could expect with certain cars, how bouncy or not a ride on some cars and some tracks can be, and whether lift-off oversteer really is this magic thing that makes turning the wheel on any race car redundant :p

    Conversely, there are things that can be pointed out in these videos demonstrating circunstances where the car handling and/or performance in the sim doesn´t stack up against reality - those are welcome observations too. A discussion driven by facts, data and observable dynamics is a lot more useful than walls of text filled with conjecture. Use it without moderation :)

    EDIT: Worth pointing out that there is obviously a wide range of track conditions, fuel loads, tire compounds, driver skill and some variations in car models in these videos as well vis-a-vis what you find in the game that should be taken into account to one degree or another.

    Here's some AMS2 onboard for ya. Some GoPro helmet cam style footage of an A.I. race at Kyalami Historic. Shot in 4K/60p - YouTube will take a couple more days to mangle the 4K, but the 1080p is available now.

    hey its unsung from steelcast's discord channel. One thing i want to mention is the 92 williams might not be the greatest representation for the ingame williams, since it has active suspension. I came here to post f1 vids but you beat me to the punch xD

    Seems, AMS2 needs another "nerdy gimmick"...active suspension. :whistle:
