If I remember correctly, these cars used the standard fuel hose so yeah.. Try to put in 60L into your petrol powered car with a stop watchTo be honest Brian , I should have known better, I just assumed fuel and tyres would be the same as GT3.
I put it down to a senior moment.
Dominic, like others have said my advice would definitely to keep on racing with us especially on Wednesdays. For me there is nothing like the incentive of the next race to put in focused practice on AC, there is so much to learn/prep for even us more experienced participants!

thank you Rasmus, you are incredibly helpful and never cease to amaze me with your technical knowledge! i will check into ACTI so that i can start getting a better feel on where to improve my lap times!Another thing @dbx71 :
There's the brilliant "ACTI" telemetry tool for AC.
If takes a few fps if you're cpu limited (mostly not a problem at all when practicing alone or with only a few cars! Just disable it in content manager before a 20+ car race, depending on your cpu).
It records the line, brakes, throttle, steering angle, rpm, shifting, slip angle, camber angle etc etc etc.
The biggest point are the driver inputs and the line though.
No matter how much you slow down a replay and do splitscreen video editing or whatever, you'll never get down to the level of detail of telemetry.
The problem is that the time lies exactly in these details!
If you want, install ACTI and do some hotlaps at Road America with the car of your choice.
It's important to go back to the pits after you did a good lap (teleport is fine) and then drive a few meters out of the pits again to wrap up the stint recording of the good lap.
Then zip me all motec files you have and upload them somewhere (documents/ACTI/.. Somewhere there, at the phone right now).
I'll do a quick analysis for you
It's probably a few general things where you need to change the approach/pattern and then a few single moments.
The single moments aren't important for the next track. Only when you want to nail Road America for the next race there.
But the general things can be taken to all tracks and often all cars too!
Using acti + motec got me from the midfield to the front rows with some cars, if I put in the practice!
And it also showed some interesting things like a grippier mx-5 being slower through tight corners, since you don't want to go for max cornering speed. You need to very slightly drift the rear to have a tighter turning radius while already accelerating.
You can't see these things on replays, YouTube etc.
similar to my story: getting back into sim racing after maybe 15-year hiatus. used to love to play Grand Prix Legends (yep, when it first came out) and then GTR2. Still play those from time to time today.
for starters, my pit was a fiasco. if you want to see for yourself, i'm car 17 in the replay, beginning at around 41:45 i enter the pits... couldnt quite figure out if i was positioned correctly, or if i was supposed to do something. probably lost almost 3 minutes there. almost bailed out of race (rage-quit lol), but finally got it lined up correctly and saw the pit icons going through the steps for re-fuel, tires, etc. man, that was painful.Another thing @dbx71 :

Sounds a very very similar story (career, wife, kids, and more spare time now they're getting older and doing they're own thing!). Basically you're going to be very welcome with lots in common with us all here.
excellent! i'm gonna save this post! i didnt even realize you could fly into the pit entry like that... when i saw rasmus do it in replay i was stunned.
in CM go to 'results' then select the race from events on left, then click the 'details' button on right...
Try switching off Weather FX in CSP. This is usually the cause.
yep, that did the trick. clear as day now.. thanks.
If you do that, don,t you lose SOL?
In theory I'm happy to do it!@RasmusP Would you mind if we did another analyze session like with did with Mugello a couple of months ago? I've got a few questions myself that I suspect I could get answered this way
(ACTI) Assetto Corsa Telemetry Interface
(ACTI) Assetto Corsa Telemetry Interface ACTI is a standalone client that together with an in-game app allows live access to and recording of Assetto Corsa telemetry data. Some of its key features are: Record telemetry data in Motec i2...
This is the download for ACTI for those interested, though IIRC Rasmus used a different version of MoTeC with a specific layout?
Haha yeah but beware, that's only for AC!!
