Assetto Corsa OcUK TT Challenge! *Season 3*

[TonyTurbo78]

Can I join into this guys? Been sim racing for many years.

 

[Uncle Petey]

No permission required, mate. Get stuck in.

 

[Born2BSlow]

I know the tyres on the xbow are bad, but the Porsche tyres are on a different level, like rolling ice patches....

 

[Born2BSlow]

Bloody hell @Paddyqwerty1 0.007s, really? Holy crap!

You're still quicker in the first sector though. And I don't know how I'm going to find 5 tenths in the X-Bow.

One word SETUP
I found loads of time stabilising the XBOW, not so easy in the porker...

 

[Born2BSlow]

I can't drive that Merc, the boost even at low settings just spins me around...

The Dallara though is up there as one of my favourite cars ever, lots of downforce just enough power, but not too much, really responsive. You could pick this every week for me @Uncle Petey

 

[Uncle Petey]

Unfortunately for me, I'm just not feeling it and can't get into the zone this week in any of the cars... Nice to see a couple of new faces though

Is this circuit made of ice? I lose all temperature in the tyres within a lap or 2 with both the KTM and the 911, and I can only keep the rears warm on the Merc due to it's monstrous amount of power. I just can't get into it at all :s

 

[Born2BSlow]

I dropped the tyre pressures and adjusted camber on the Xbow and 911. It made the tyres work a lot better and my crew chief stopped telling me my tyres were cold all the time...those cars need setup work, I’m no expert, I just read the descriptions and clicked everything that said more stable, better traction, and more heat in the tyres...made a massive difference on the xbow

 

[PinkFloyd]

I'll play around some more today if I get some time. I tweaked a little but it didn't seem to help a huge amount, but I guess I've also got the issue of not really knowing the track and missing braking points throwing time away too. Seems a nice circuit mind.

 

[RevBillyG]

Hmm, cant see the server :/

ignore. found it

 

[Uncle Petey]

It's definitely up.

 

[Uncle Petey]

Well done to @Born2BSlow and @Paddyqwerty1 once again

Thanks Uncle Petey.

I never bothered much with Sebring in the past as it is, well, flat. Usually I prefer undulating tracks.

Recently bought the rF2 version though, along with the GT3 & Endurance cars, and it's actually pretty good fun

The bumps are an eye opener for the first few laps, when compared to most other tracks.

Even more so when you have your ffb set too high due to not paying attention...

 

[Uncle Petey]

Yeah, you may have noticed that I usually pick tracks with elevation changes.
Despite being flat, Sebring is a classic that we probably should have done ages ago.

 

[Born2BSlow]

Never driven it before, took me a few laps to figure out the layout. Some interesting corners with bumps on the exit to throw you off if you get a bit lairy...

 

[NeverWinter]

Never driven Sebring either, not sure I'm a massive fan.

That Sesto Elemento though is like driving on ice in it's standard setup!

Same as the last round with the xbow/911, if you drop the tyre pressure a little and increase the camber a little you get better tyre heat and therefore grip. It still needs to be slowed down properly for corners and feels very point and squirt though...
