The reason you're much faster in the straights is that you have the boost pressure set at 100%, the default is 80%.

AMS2 have come a long way but unfortunatly many cars still feels disconnected from the road in my opinion. The new F-Ultimate Gen 2 is the only car with the new tirer model , they feel more connected, sharper and they don't tolerate slip as much as the other cars. The LMDH feels a lot more connected too

Thanks for making another video on AMS2 James.

The slip angle abuse will be fixed during the summer with the V1.6 update. Drive the Stock car 2024 and F-Ultimate gen 2 to get a feeling of it

Man, your face when that engine said poooooooofffffffffff. PRICELESS!!!! Glad you gave it a second run James. Thanks for the vids and work....

If you predominantly race offline (which I do) then you can't go far wrong with AMS2. I especially love multi-class races with the multitude of prototypes in the game, though the classic open wheelers and Brazilian stockcars are great fun too.

Been doing AC and ACC for years. Bought a Quest 3 last month and they recommended AMS2. So I gave it a go and fell in love. It's just such fun. Sure it's more forgiving than AC and ACC, but man... the immersion in VR and the amount of brutal fun. No comparison.

Rolling coasting means?

Ams2 is king of single player racing. The AI is waaay more entertaining than any other sim. Dont miss understand me, it can always be better but in that category it's better than everything else currently available

Let him cook(im way too early)

The C9 is allround epic, difficult to tame but so rewarding.

I've been saying for ages that we need to get a bunch of ACC/iRacing/Raceroom esports drivers together on a top-level Group C tournament in a sim with good weather and day/night transitions like AMS2 or iRacing. Just put the best sim drivers out there in these death machines and put them through a good 5-10 rounds of absolute chaos at 350kph. I would genuinely pay real actual money to watch it

Great combo!

James, glad you had time to set a few things up and then have a much better experience. Spot on with the sliding physics issue, hope that can get sorted out someday soon.

Great AMS2 video! I was watching it on the telly, while we were getting ready for dinner, and my better half shouted from the kitchen - she's gonna blow! 10secs later, amidst my saying how ignorant she was, the engine was out! I'm expecting the "I told you so" 's to the ends of time.

Thanks for doing another video on AMS 2. Tyre model has been under revision - again- for a couple of weeks. That should make slip angles more realistic - i.e. you won't be able to abuse them as you just pointed out in this video. I hope Reiza will get it right.

Absolutely love driving these group c cars on Gt7, this c9 is frighningly good. Can't imagine how good it will be on here

Lol that money shift! Also update 1.6 should be fixing the slip angle issue for all cars (also bringing IMSA!). The Brazilian Stock car 2024 has the new tire model currently , but if you’re not sick of AMS2 testing this summer, try it post 1.6 update! The SC24 feels pretty good in that regard now I think.

You should try Formula Ultimate Gen2 and Stock Car 2024, they have the most recent tyre model.

The C9 on Spa is one of my fav combos. Fell in love with the car purely on sound at first lol. You need to get a Quest 3 with Kiwi design headset with battery pack for over 3 hours of play, decent WiFi 6e router as AMS2 excels in VR ( I play over steam link).
