Unfortunate incident, I now we would have had a good fight.
More chances to come, glad everyone is alright!
See you on the next one!
Is it against the law to **** my son? I will have a beer or two.

Race report:
My consistency with the Porsche was a bit touch and go after testing a few setups.
Knowing Rui's pace, I knew it was better to tuck behind and fend off Michael. I selected the setup a bit too early, so when I pressed drive, the tires were stone cold.
As I predicted, had a good scrap with Michael on the first lap.
As there was no direct fight, I lost concentration a couple of times and had a couple of spins (first time since Laguna Seca).
Everyone I lapped was on point. Was interesting lapping the GT4s, I tried to catch them in a way it would not mess up their race, as I had a buffer for mine. Hope I managed to do that!
Also had a slow puncture again for the second time in a row at Silverstone. Have to learn to keep away from those kerbs.
Happy with my progress at Silverstone, but it's still not one I'm comfortable on.
Warm welcome to all the new drivers, now check out the upcoming British GT series for more racing.
Thanks @SwannyUK for putting this on and @JohannS for organizing the liveries.
Congrats @vomvz and @Hazzatron19 on the wins!

So, I wanted to see how the VR experience was online. I'm not an ACC player, I saw I last played the sim in November 2022 before joining the server yesterday.. time flies.
The Alpine GT4 felt quite good, I tried the Mustang right before but that felt quite bland. So I just picked aggressive setup and went for it. I know tire pressures are important in ACC but I don't know how much it should be anyway, but it felt pretty good out of the box.
VR however is still miles off of what I am used to in AC mostly but also other sims. It's still quite blurry but also not very smooth.. especially when near cars, then it gets quite choppy. I sat through the race but it didn't feel quite good on the VR side.. that's a bummer.
I have always liked the physics and the depth of the sim in ACC. Although GT3's are not my favourite cars at all I would do a championship here or there but right now the VR experience is not good enough for me. So yeah, that's it I guess. Hoping AC2 does VR as it should! I hope I didn't wreck any GT3's race. The cars popped up into the low res mirrors quite late, I didn't have much situational awareness.

It won’t be, I’ve tried ACC with my headset and ACC is just ridiculously bad at it unfortunately
I mean it’s playable but it’s no where near the standard it should be

In the ACC club we run non-premium now and then, the AC club run these events more often. It doesn't cost much to join premium, you get access to some great events and get to know the drivers on the grid
ok thanks do i have to join acc club and ac club?In the ACC club we run non-premium now and then, the AC club run these events more often. It doesn't cost much to join premium, you get access to some great events and get to know the drivers on the grid
You don't have to join anything as such, just sign up for the races (lots of event threads in the main club section) once you've upgraded to premium

Hi Michael, I have a HP Reverb G2. It is quite demanding to get a sharp picture. I guess I'm used to it with other sims.
Hi Laurent, so it makes no sense for me with a Rift. Simply not good enough because of the Rift and ACC obviously.
