I'm really enjoying this track it grows on you the more you drive it. So for I'm down to low 1:08's with room for improvement.

198
I used 3-1 wings for qualy but 3-2 for the race, the one thing with wings is not necessarily the lowest rear will give you the highest top speed as this may be limited by gearing and also the exit speed out of the last turn at mugello. If its too loose at the rear you may be a few kmh slower onto the straight which is more then you may make up with less drag. I was also geared hitting the rev limiter the last few meters before the t1 brake point and I actually think I may have been on the limiter longer with 2 rear wing but I didnt compare telemetry of both but may run a couple laps both ways on soft tyres to get a proper test.

I still found I was a few tenths quicker with 1 at the rear but was more consistant with a more planted rear end through the twistier sections. At Monza I also found less rear wing was loosing me quite a bit of mid corner speed so I used a bit more wing there but was quite off pace anyway in traffic most of the race then.

Am I wrong in thinking the suspension differences between front and back also add to the drag effect? I'm not sure if it was placebo but I noticed lifting the suspension on the rear got my more stability through the twisty sections.

I'd need to check but from memory my suspension was 2-3 front and 5 at the back.  My wings were 3-4 for the race  :o

What sort of lap times should we be aiming for? RSR doesn't have anything to go by. 1:10 is where I'm at but I've never seen this course up until today.

Ohh I didn't think about the pit box requirements. All good I just want to start early trying out the new car.

Wally, will seasons two follow the same track order? or will it change with new AC tracks like Vallelunga ?

202
we should put this on Twitch TV and make some money from it, as in the next live event we should broadcast.

Don't you mean FOX at Blackwood ;)

Say what?

I think it's a reference to LFS.

I've never been in a online league so I'd also like to thank Wally and everyone else for putting it together.

Yeah last night was fun, I practiced a lot during the week and I'm pleased to see it paid off.

I had a shocking start to both races, watching the grid overtake me while I figured out the clutch

Very sorry for the accident early up in race two, I knew someone had a highish ping with the car warping around the place and I thought it was safe to pass.

Race one for me was all about putting in consistent lap times while waiting for Marty to crash :P
It was my only real chance of catching him, no such luck but I was still happy to finish 2nd.

The second race I had a shocking start and but I managed to go from 2nd to 11th I think. After some focus I slowly got back into the race. Thanks Glen for the good battle at the end.

Very keen. Sign me up please :)

Assetto Corsa / Re: Nords 0.9.8 Weather Mod - It's about to rain!

I nicked this from the official forums, it's a pretty decent change to the weather on Nords. It works for all the maps but essentially was created to add more atmosphere to the track. Typically it's raining @ Nords in RL, this mod makes it look like it's about to bucket down with rain.

The clouds do look pretty awesome.  ;D

Make sure to enable HDR.


Nooooooooooo ooooo ooooo!

Thought it was going to be awesome Phil... Then i saw the 'turn on ugly' line.(HDR) Will it work without?

sorry it uses the HDR effeect to create the fog.  :'(

Hahaha...I'm liking CramDick Racing. It has a ring to it.

We'll need a team car skin! I'll be on for a few hours tomorrow evening and same on Friday... maybe we can sort out skins, TS whisper and have our inaugural team practice  :D

already started on a skin for next season. If we are in the Tatuus that is.


Of cause it's easy to add and remove sponsors.

what programs do you use to make the skins?

I looked into the launch parameters someone mentioned on ts last night. Turns out they're actually for arma/dayz and don't do anything for AC. Confirmed by a developer.

Just to clear a misconception:
"Set Launch Options" will send these command line options to assettocorsa.exe, which is the launcher, and that won't be propagating to acs.exe, which is the sim.

I have no idea where this started but if anyone is seeing any improvement, or any change whatsoever, because of it then it's just another testimony that the placebo effect runs strong.

I don't know why it would be causing all cores to show high usage but a game wouldn't do that if it were using all cores anyway.

Well, it was worth a shot.
