Too many cooks in the kitchen LOL! I can't please everyone, so you'll just have to meet me in the middle and see what you get 
Assetto Corsa OcUK TT Challenge! *Season 3*
- Thread starter Uncle Petey
- Start date
It went like this
Like I say, I can't actually remember what I was going to pick
Anyway, server is up, details in OP. I don't like everything, and perhaps neither will you. However, masochists like PinkFloyd will probably enjoy themselves
.SDG. Pete Spangles: Don't worry, we'll have fun next week
Stuart Gillard: Why what we got....? Sounds ominous lol
.SDG. Pete Spangles: I'll surprise you

Can I just make any lurkers aware that this is open to OcUK members only.
If you are a member and you've put a time on the board (perhaps your in-game username is different to your OcUk handle), can you at least post here to let us know - if you haven't previously posted in the thread.
Cheers.
Times from unknowns will be removed from the leaderboard or set to invalid.

I'm still psyching myself up for the ordeal
May just pussy out and take the RedBull/Lotus for a spin...

"Someone" eh?
@dl8860
It varies from week to week as mentioned, but I'd really recommend grabbing the Assetto + all three dream packs package deal at a minimum tbh mate - not just for this TT thread, mind. You'll have more options for your own entertainment and will be a lot less limited when you go online.
The discounted season pass for the three Porsche packs would probably be a wise idea too. It's a bargain if you ask me.

Sorry guys, I've been too busy to even get any laps done.
The server will change tomorrow afternoon/early evening.

It's possible.
Were you thinking to lock them at stock or use setups sourced elsewhere?

I believe so.
Apologies, but I haven't had time sort the new server out today. I'm not around tonight, so it'll have to be tomorrow.
In the meantime, I'm happy to take requests since I don't have time to put a lot of thought into this one.
Fire away and I'll do a pick n mix

I hear you, but the point is to have a varied selection, so that there's hopefully something for everyone.
We don't have to have a warp speed car every week, but it's better to have a bit of everything rather than a bunch of stuff that's all roughly the same that only appeals to a narrower set of tastes.
In case any of you don't have this installed, I'd recommend it.
It'll help you to see where everyone else is, whether they're on track or in the pit and makes it easier to judge when to exit the pitlane and/or when you're likely to encounter another car.

Oh I'm all for varied in character, was more down to overall lap time. Take say the F40 and the Taatus, imagine they're relatively close in laptime on your average track, with the F40 lack of cornering grip balancing out to its extra straight line speed, so not going to be passing each other on track constantly. Thinking back to brands, driving the escorts when F1 cars were about was a pain in the ass, I was getting lapped twice a lap by the same guy
It's the "warp speed" cars that are the problem, maybe keep them alongside really fast modern super cars. Then slow/classic cars with nothing faster than GT cars just to minimise that contrast whilst still having lots of variation?
Tbh, having F1 cars in with pretty much anything else will result in those closing speed issues. It's just more pronounced with cars like the Escort.
As long we can maintain a race and road selection on any given week, I'm sure we can sort something out
Are you and PinkFloyd members of the same bondage club?
Donington can be found here. So that's the track sorted.

New server/challenge is up!
We'll be trying out the new Ginetta that was released the other day. Delete your old folder before installing this one.

Mate took a pic of this Ginetta G40 in his work car park.
How cute is this?

Track is at optimum and the time of day can't be fixed. It starts at 8am and the server is on a 12hr session loop.
Auto clutch is enabled as an allowed assist. I don't believe it forces it, unless anyone can confirm that it does.
Also activate the app from the sidebar menu.
The server is running factory settings.
On the off chance that anyone didn't know, you can raise/lower your TC/ABS levels (amount depending on the car) and of course turn it off or on by mapping a button or two, or using CTRL+T and CTRL+A.
1 is the highest setting, 0 is off.
Obviously, you can't adjust these if the car doesn't have TC/ABS to start with.

When you say it doesn't work for you, do you mean it doesn't work or do you mean you don't get on with it?
I don't know if he's started from scratch or whether he's updated the previous mod.
I'm hoping he's updated the previous car, as that was made using data from Ginetta themselves. One of the guys I race with made it.
Anyway, I'm gonna have to ask you all to re-download the car, as it's been updated.
If I leave it as it is, anyone who hasn't downloaded it before today will get a checksum error if they try to join the server with the current version.
EDIT
If the car isn't working, it might be because you need to download the original file and then the update. Go to the version history tab.
Install the main file and then drag and drop the update folder into your cars folder and let it overwrite.
He should've just uploaded the complete file tbh...

No probs mate and thanks for the offer, but the server is running on my PC. I'm not paying for a dedicated server or anything
