Assetto Corsa

I'd probably recommend the owners club organised ones over the official abarth company organised day, apart from a free coffee there was very little that made it feel special. Me and the Mrs both think the drive there and back was more fun than the actual track time could have been! In hindsight I got a 5hr drive excuse without having to wait to have 5 mins on the track!

Having mentioned my opinion on the owners club forum it seems I'm completely wrong and it was great, maybe I woke up on the wrong side of bed or something, or maybe it wasn't for me. So all in all don't take my opinion of it as correct lol

One thing I found quite interesting games like AC versus actually driving the track was summed up in one of DAIR's recent videos from motors - the instructor is telling him don't go on that side (even though it looks like the best line when ingame) as the surface ain't great and will slow you down.

I've done a bit of driving in slower cars (performance golf) in AC versus real life with pretty similar results but I'd imagine very very different story for the faster stuff.

Yeah. It was most definitely an eye opener.

I cant wait to go back!

3 laps shepherded by an instructor sounded like a pretty objective description to me, definitely not simething I'll be crossing the country for

i wanna know what view u use to get the uber lap times.
it has to be bonnet or clear screen, doesnt it?

Dg what view you use?

Sp00n · 31 Oct 2016 at 09:23

Gotta be in-car without wheel!

Dj_Jestar · 31 Oct 2016 at 09:36

Damn straight.

I've always preferred bumper cam for almost everything, unless it's an open wheeler, where it has to be cockpit view.

Each to their own.

some cars i use bonnet some i dont use any of the car where you can just see the road.just depends what i feel like using

Sp00n · 31 Oct 2016 at 11:31

I feel like bumper cam is a bit cheaty considering I'm playing a sim

Uncle Petey · 31 Oct 2016 at 11:36

I'm not one of those 'I must feel absolutely immersed at all times' types. Sim or not

Sp00n · 31 Oct 2016 at 11:54

Different strokes and all that, don't care what other people use

MikeTheNative · 31 Oct 2016 at 12:06

I'm cockpit cam all the time as well. I have VR now though so I imagine bonnet cam being a bit vomit inducing with that.

With Assetto Corsa, I'm in the car always, and I'm not that fast but prefer the immersion.

I used to play Richard Burns Rally on the bumper view as you could hit each apex a lot easier.

starting to like the cayman gt4 (not a big porsche fan

)

fun to drive and starting to get to grips with pushing it a little now.can actually slide it a bit round corners. so did a clean lap of nords. will keep pushing to see what i can get.

syks · 31 Oct 2016 at 23:58

i use cockpit cam on games like assetto,project cars,f1 2016 etc but bumper cam for all rally games,im going to have to get into assetto properly,i do love the game but have to many games to play lol

is there a way in ac to show if you up on sectors for hotlapping ?

without extra pluggins and such ? thanks.

like green for up on your time red for slower.

Uncle Petey · 1 Nov 2016 at 11:59

Not built in to the game, but there is this: http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/splits-app.5478/
Don't know if it still works with the latest update.

Dashmeter Pro has sector delta if you happen to use it.
