Assetto Corsa / Re: Poll: Car for season 2

Bummer.

Guys, I can see the FAbarth pulling forwards;  but just think about it: it's too forgiving. 
It's not a car to learn new tricks with, it's a car to get sloppy with.  You can get away with nearly anything.   

I don't recommend it at all.

Think of it as a start though, learning to get to grips with this as a training car (as it is in real life) before graduating to the likes of more advanced open wheelers.  There's plenty of time to work our way up to that Exos S1 and perhaps by then we will have Spa and some other good modded tracks :)

I see RSR have announced a Formel 3 mod and are working closely with one of the teams.  That might be a good next step after the Tatuus.

Is there any chance we could have a break for a couple of weeks between season 1 and 2 Wally?  The rest of my life is starting to feel neglected!

2028
Just had a couple of races on Imola in the Tatuus with Phil, Rolz, Gratulin and Dick.  Was great fun.  It's such a fun car and you really appreciate the cornering ability of these things after driving the E30.

The Schumacher S is a great bit of track. I find I have to lift a little to get some turn in, but then again, I do have to find at least 1 second somewhere.

You are in the DTM though so I guess you'd be going in with a lot more speed?  I find that getting your wheels up on the outside curb before you turn into the first left helps a bit and if you get the front and rear to slide just a little bit at turn in coming off the curb, when the tyres "bite" it gets you through OK.

Was the ballast in NKP part of the game or a mod?  Hopefully if it was something Kunos put in they have similar plans for AC.

Wally are you also considering the Tatuus in your open wheeler car options?  I love all the open wheelers but my only concern is that all of them bar the Tatuus may be very difficult to drive for those that are still building up their experience in AC.

I'm with you on using the Kunos tracks also.  You kind of have to re-learn them when using a new car anyway which is a bit of fun.  Looking forward to Spa being released.  Being European based I'm hoping they also do Barcelona and Hungry (although just saw a conversion for this is up).  Would be great to see Monaco at some stage but I doubt they would be able to laser scan that one.

I just accidentally bought 4 of these shirt clip-on mics:

They seem like an alright and cheap solution.  If I get 4 and they are small enough I might be able to just post one to you Rolz.

Holding it flat through the Schumacher S in the Grp a is great fun... When it works.  Still trying to decide whether to hold it for the race or lift marginally.

I'm looking for the exact same thing. Someone mentioned one on Tuesday night but I can't remember who or what.

Not a problem.  If it's a bit tail happy try decreasing the rear spring rate by 1 or 2 clicks, or decrease both anti roll bars by 1, or decrease both front and rear tyre pressure by 3 or 4 pounds, or decrease the rear bump damper.

Just settled on a setup for the Group A at Nurburgring.  In the dropbox link in first post.

Very hard track to find a setup which suits all corners.  Took me bloody ages!

Which wheel settings are you using Marty?  I'm still using the original FFB preset for G27 from one of the first updates for AC.

Dick I plan to do a few laps Saturday morning if you want a few tips.  Although I've only ran a handful of laps so far with this car and track combo.

you're from QLD guybrush? The crime capital of Australia? Not the bikies, the government!  :o

I'm a West Aussie. The only one here in this group I believe.

So my morning might be a bit later than yours.. In saying that, I do get up bloody early sometimes.

QLD?... I'm a mighty Victorian.  You know, where they play the type of football game that is actually good :p

No worries.  I'm having a few drinks tonight so probably won't be on until later our morning anyway.  I'll bring my echo machine.

Cheers.

Awww, I love the F40.  I could imagine it being a real handful around Aosta though with all the trail braking and off-balance corners.

I'm also with you on that hairpin Wally, a major PITA for me in the few laps I did with Marty Tuesday night.

How did the race end up guys? I couldn't join as I've been away for work again.  Hopefully next week.
