Assetto Corsa OcUK TT Challenge! *Season 3*

Congrats to @Paddyqwerty1 and @Born2BSlow on his triumphant return :)
Well done to @Yadda for finally getting on the server :p Brace yourself for a culture shock on this one!

This week, we're going on a little blast to the past, because who needs grippy turn in and reasonable braking distances when you have oldskool drifting and the fear of imminent fiery death on every corner?

Round 22 - Bridgehampton >>DOWNLOAD<<​

  • Porsche 962c Short Tail
  • Ferrari 312PB >>DOWNLOAD<<
  • Lotus Type 49
  • Shelby Cobra 427 S/C

I put the Cobra in there for the hardcore nutters.
@PinkFloyd it's your time :D

The Porsche and Ferrari are fairly planted, so it's not so bad.

Oh, and the Ferrari 312PB (1972 Can-Am) is from the AC Legends Protoype pack that you can find HERE
There's also a GT Classics pack HERE if that's your bag.

I didn't want to make you download an entire pack just to use the 312PB, so I uploaded it separately.

Here's a nicely made review of the Prototype pack:

 
Yeah, it's one I've barely touched and need to learn properly.
A lot of people seem to like runing older stuff on this track with cars like the RS1600 for example. Maybe I should've chucked that in, or '74 RSR perhaps?
Anyway, it's a Lilski track using LIDAR data, and as you probably know, he's one of the most highly rated track modders out there.

@Born2BSlow Thanks again for suggesting the Goodwood thing, as it really got me liking the previously despised Type 49. You've managed to finally get me to appreciate driving certain older cars :) Many have tried...
Sliding around the fast downhill T1/T2 section in that is hilarious fun. VR is especially amazing with stuff like that.
 
Mate, it truly is a game changer that I couldn't be without :)
It's a shame that videos can only give you a very basic idea of the experience...

Saying that, I might see about doing a slippery vid with the 49 later - assuming I can manage a clean lap :D
 
Here's a few current PB's from this evening. Got a bit carried away lapping in the Porsche. That thing's fun.


Outlap + Hotlap


Decent enough, but definite room for improvement on all three. God knows if I'll even attempt the Cobra :D :eek:
 
I'd say to go brand new with Thrustmaster. Good wheels, but you want a warranty as reliabilty can be hit and miss.
For around £200 brand new, a Logitech G29 or G920 with a shifter isn't a bad shout. A used G27 is also worth looking out for. They're relatively bomb proof.

If you want to use realistic wheel rims and would rather have beefier/smoother FFB, stick with Fanatec or TM, though it'll cost you.
 
@Yadda
Have a google for a T300 RS GT if you can do £300. Can't link here.

I need to complete my DIY rig soon. Haven't touched Assetto in a long time. Then seeing your VR stuff, the gameplay without VR looks so rigid. I should invest in one of those for the future. It really changes the game for open wheelers.

Going all out in this would be awesome. Imagine the fun. :D :D

You've been talking about your DIY rig for bloody ages. Get it done ffs! :D

The Ferrari 643 in that vid is actually my favourite formula car. It's as awesome in VR as you imagine, if not better.
Hows that for motivation?

And yeah, pedals are possibly even more important than the wheel.
Still rocking my trusty old clubsports from back in t'day.

Good work mate :) Yeah, it was me spying via the live map.

I had a CSR. It was pretty good, if a touch on the slowish side + mine was a little rickety anyway.
If you find a good deal on one with the alcantara in good nick, the GT3 is the one I'd pick.
Saying that, they are getting a bit old and the rims are a bit small for my tastes.
Depends on the price.
