ACC GT3 @ Silverstone - Wednesday 4th may - All abilities welcome
- Thread starter SwannyUK
- Start date
Assetto Corsa Competizione Racing Club event
Hi Swanny!
Me and a mate from the AC club are thinking about finally (really about time, geez..) joining some ACC races.
From the information I gathered:
- 30 minute race, no pit stop
- 27.5-28 psi after 5-7 laps
- time of day + temps in one of your posts to practice
Questions:
- start procedure? I'd like to practice to stay behind/in the green box/whatever
- do I need some specific DLCs? No idea if you need all cars from DLCs that are available to choose for the race or only the one you want to race with. And also quite out of the loop regarding which cars are from which DLC. Sorry!
Feels free to give super short replies. I'd just like to do some practice later today to get at least a tiny bit comfortable before the race

Normal short start procedure which is usually just before or after the last corner. Stay in the green, the game will soon let you know if you are out of it.
No DLC needed. Others with DLC can use the DLC cars but you don't need it unless it's a DLC track.
Looking forward to seeing you on track!

Thanks a lot for the quick reply!
Any really slow car with the current BoP that should be avoided? A few years ago I used the Jaguar at Monza and, lol, won the first RD ACC event, my only win ever
Off-Topic:
Since then I didn't drive in ACC at all, oops... Only played around with the graphics settings when there were updates and used it to benchmark CPUs and RAM speeds.
Now that I'm finally happy with how it looks and runs, thanks to DLSS+DLDSR, it's really about time that I do some laps with my CSW 2.5 and experience the upgrade over my old G27 (I have the Fanatec wheel since 2019..
)
I hope there's no safety rating requirement...
I created a little practice server for me and @hape and I forgot that private servers also influence the rating.
We had some fun testing the collision physics, since AC is "touch me and we'll both spin" and acc is more like "crash into me and I'll just correct the little slide"
So my SA is 14 right now. Since I also always forgot to deactivate it when setting up stuff against the AI, driving mindlessly via keyboard haha
Jaguar: it has everything. It's just older but was quite competitive back then and awesome to push. No idea against the newer cars though.
We drove the 2019 Aston Martin. Nice car even with the aggressive setup!

Haha, brilliant - luckily no minimum safety rating required. We rely on people being sensible and following the club rulesI hope there's no safety rating requirement...

Should be a great event!
Good to knowHaha, brilliant - luckily no minimum safety rating required. We rely on people being sensible and following the club rules

Thanks to AC's "Tap someone and it'll be race over for everyone around", I'd say we're very clean racers
But it's good to know that you can rub a little through the hairpins and the chance of someone dying when going side by side into Copse is only 50%, not 99,9%
Hi all, this time registered a car in time
I hope to be a regulate contender in acc from now as i switched to a new PC last weekend. before, i had an WIN7, i5 4590/gtx1060 and it was always a very compromised driving. The last weeks even more as i had faatl errors, related to WIN7 so far i learned. Now with a new WIN11, 19 11900/RTX3070 it looks like that i truly can enjoy acc again, or for the first time at all.
Maybe i have some minor questions to setup the graphics at the best for nice and reliability.

Good to see some other drivers from the AC racing club Rasmus.
.. Agree a little bump here and there is much more forgiving than AC. Pretty good grid building here, should be a fun event.
Great stuff!
