Tips and Tricks section
(comprised of factual information and personal racing experience)

These cars

click here for a submitted setup for the McLaren GT3
The BMW has better acceleration - the McLaren has better mid-corner speed - the Lotus is more agile.
Pick at least the Medium compound to cover the race distance of 20 laps savely.
-

This track

Good overtaking opportunities are Turns 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, 14.
-

In general

A turn is defined by a 'Change in direction'.
Take a look back and to the sides of your car at the starting grid before the race - make sure your steering wheel and your tyres are facing the right direction.
Be sure to practice race starts with cold tyres to get a clean and fast getaway from the grid - this is also a safety issue to avoid spins and accidents right after the lights go out.
You may also share your setups with a short description in the 'Assetto Corsa Setups' forum.
Be careful during overtaking and give your fellow drivers enough room to maneuver.
Make sure you are sufficiently far alongside the car you want to overtake before committing to a move. Additionally, be sure your fellow driver sees you and is aware/can sense/can predict where you are /where you will be in the next couple of seconds. This will massively reduce unnecessary contact and clumsy accidents.
The virtual rear mirror (press F11), the red triangles at the corners of your screen pointing at a close car and a regular look back (map a button) will help you with that.

hello i have question..

Enabled grip dynamics - the track will gain grip very quickly.
what is this? my english is not so good, so i do not know this? is this perhaps that race start with lower grip level and then each lap more grip?
if so, with how much grip do AC start in enabled grip dynamics?

Mechanical damage set to 0%
again i do not know, if this is set to 0%, no damage? engine or other thing or full damage?
and do AC simulate already damage, can a engine explode for example if i shift without hit clutch and do not have autoclutch on?

last thing, is the 5sec. penalty on or off for this race?
sorry for question, long time not drive AC and if, then only quick testing.

thanks for answear
