Everyone had an awesome livery by the way. From the Lego team all the way to the Repsol BMW and Myles' yellow Vantage.

Apparantly my livery was not properly loaded. Seemed fine on my end
Thank you for the pictures Oliver!

Did you select the Illusion or the RJ99 livery from the M4 selection menu?

 

[RicardoJorge92]

Yeah, I think I saw it on my end, but have to confirm on the replay, tbh.
I had the RJ99 selected

 

[SwannyUK]

@akephoe did you have the latest skin pack installed?

Don't stress about it, though! Minor details.

Nah, just wondering that might be the only reason I can think it wouldn't show.

 

[JohannS]

That's a weird one, sorry Ricardo! I have the RJ99 in the pack, but also saw the ACC in game livery. We'll have a look on the practice server before the next race

No worries. I want to try and see if I can commit to a new car for the whole series.
Might commission you an illusion livery got the new car!

I'm going to be trying each of the new GT3 cars, might go Porsche and be brave

Yes, the last from yesterday afternoon.

Indeed, I’ve been with the McLaren for over a year I love the car but I’m thinking I might mix it up with one of the new cars

That is my idea right now....

Regarding strategy: my race ended with 37 l fuel in the tank
In my setup I choose 90 l for the start and the two pitstops. Plan was to adjust the fuel during the race, never did this before. Technically its of course not a problem but it seems I‘m to slow for the fuel calculation during the race, maybe at Paul Ricard its possible for me…

Now a question: is the fuel calculation and the manual adjustment during the race possible with Crew Chief?

Found after my post. Should be possible…

 

[akephoe]

For Fuel calculation i use the ACC Results App or/ and the second Monitor telemetry App.

Really enjoyed this Spa Special…. Sunrise was spectacular. was a pleasure to race in this Endurance event. Thanks for all the hard work Chris (especially the last min server switch ! Pulled it off )

Congratulations: Ricardo, Andrew, Chris

Race Review
As I’m not as fast here at Spa as other circuits i was always going with a one stop strategy with a little eco plan towards the end of the race. Tyres held up really well and my tyre psi choice worked better than expected, there was only a brief spell where they dropped off and became a little sketchy but nothing drastic.

For a few laps I managed to keep the 25 Porsche in sight and also pull a gap on Myles in the big V12, but couldn’t catch the Porsche, so I settled in for the journey to the checkered flag.

So came my pit stop……stop went fantastic with only 3 seconds of damage repair, full tank and new rubber…… smooth as silk right up until I selected 2nd gear and got a speed penalty, which I am livid about as I was literally the last box before the speed limit line. So I got a SG penalty which I did on the very next lap… only for it not to cancel out, so I had to come in again on the next lap and this time it cleared, as you can imagine this was a very frustrating time , as my pit went so well initially,

Next half of the race was nice and smooth, I had managed to get a lap on the big Aston but after my pit stop episode and a little spin at the last chicane Myles had past me, so my focus then was to chase down the V12 and pass it, which I managed to do after a nice little battle for a few laps.

Amazing Grid of drivers, and the legendary Spa. Perfect!

Look forward to seeing you all on track soon guys.

During the race?

The second Monitor telemetry App has a real live Fuel consumption Display during the race and Shows how much Fuel you have to add for finishing the race. I run it on a Laptop, as 2nd Monitor.

That sounds pretty cool

 

[akephoe]

That sounds pretty cool

Yes, a very helpful tool, like crew chief it helps a lot to get the things together. (Ok, if you, like me, nearly always make a mistake during the pit entry for gaining a 30SG than it is not so important... )

The telemetry tool and analyser is also helpful in testing a setup, but its not perfect.
For example, i miss the ride height scale for ACC, but i'm not sure if this is related to the 2nd monitor app or ACC itself.

 

[mklengel]

Interesting. This one?

Telemetry Tool for ACC

The port of my Telemetry Tool for Assetto Corsa Competizione is here. This version works now well also with Assetto Corsa Competizione. I have developed this tool for many years for the F1 series, but lately have added support to other games...
