CRAP Club Assetto Corsa Time Trials!! - New TTs, Sometime In The Future!!

[Slapped]

OK, this is going to be my first and final time - I've got way too many untouched games on my PS that I need to explore, and I just don't click with AC to be honest.

1:57.730

 

[nosoks]

1:54.412 was all I could muster

 

[Dopplegagger]

I'll throw the car at some corners after work today. I've been meaning to do it since Friday, but I kept getting sidetracked by Street Fighter and beat production... sigh.

 

[HammyMansell]

Yeah @Dopplegagger have a go mate, great fun!

Finally dusted of the game lol

1:53.093! What a fun little car, one of the best there is in any racing game, ever!

 

[Dopplegagger]

Holy Cow that's quick! I'm apparently dragging the anchor when I'm running it. The best I've managed was a 1:59.642

Granted I'm not really familiar with the car and the course, but about 5 minutes into my session I really started to feel connected with the Alfa. Well there's still a little more time to lower the bar.

 

[nosoks]

Oh, I thought we were done. If I can get home I can have another go

 

[HammyMansell]

Yes mate, you have until tonight, still time for a bit more fun!!

 

[HammyMansell]

@HammyMansell 1:53:093

Had a wee toodle round and was thinking where did all that bleepin understeer come from.... .... then I remembered, just got done playing GTS...... need to readjust brain

 

[Dopplegagger]

2:09.049. This is a very humbling car.

I was on my way to beating the 2:09, but then I stuffed on the straight after turn 6. I was way too aggressive.

This forum needs a "HAHAHA" button!

 

[Dopplegagger]

Improved to 2:06.364...

Now to work on my racing lines. I'm all over the place.

 

[Slapped]

Love the car, but I have an utter hatred for the track - I must have driven the Nurb GP a 100 times or more in the past and it's never clicked with me.

 

[HammyMansell]

A couple of times via Fartbonk:

@SpaceBreed 2:01.232

@nosoks 2:02.041

 

[nosoks]

If I can get a few more laps in I can break 2 min
2:00.611

 

[HammyMansell]

What a fun little car!!

1:59.352.......Now i know why Mr Lauda loved this car so much, and i'm sure it was worth a singed ear or two as well!

We finish tonight fellas, get any final times in.

 

[Slapped]

We finish tonight fellas, get any final times in.

While I'd love to, the idea of torturing myself on the Nurb GP in the humid 35° heat we have here is about as appealing as having a tooth pulled by a mechanic with a monkey wrench.

That said I'd love to see this car again on perhaps a more period track such as the Hatch.

Oh and while we're on the subject of Nikki Lauda, if any of you haven't seen the film Rush then, ahem, rush out and get it. Daniel Brühl totally and utterly nails Nikki Lauda to the point that he's practically indistinguishable from the real Nikki Lauda, and Chris Hemsworth does a damned convincing job of James Hunt as well. I'd rate it as my second favourite motorsport movie after Le Mans, and it's a very close second.

Yes mate, Rush is a great film....I have it on Blu Ray and downloaded (hush hush) on my laptop. A super film.....The name's Hunt, it rhymes with C........!

 

[nosoks]

1:59.710 is all i could get. Not a fan of this track either @Slapped
i WAS a fan of the film Rush and agree Daniel Bruhl nailed it. I like LeMans a lot and also Grand Prix with James Garner. My dad took me to see that in 196x
A suggestion for a future TT... the Lambo Huracan ST. Ran with @SpaceBreed and Co at Zandvoort the other night was a ton o fun

@Dopplegagger 2:06.364

Well done to all of you that had a go, the next Assetto TT will be from next Friday, the 3rd of August!

 

[Dopplegagger]

And I was just about to hop on and see if I could get closer to the 2 minute mark. Oh well. Saves some frustration.

Get your strength back and rest up for the next one mate!!

[Slapped]

Nice car and nice track. Took it for a bit of a spin earlier in practice mode, and while I don’t know the track that well at the moment I can see potential for some of you guys to be down in the low 1:40s, possibly even high 1;30s

Softs are definitely going to be the tyre of choice here - at least for me.

 

[nosoks]

After all this I hope I get time, but I'm painting......... Oh well could be worse........ I could be plumbing

 

[HammyMansell]

Had a little go (having too much fun with the 70th anniversary Ferrari pack to try any more ) and did a 1:43.424!

Don't use the softs, they go red after a lap and a half....Mediums are a good bet. I'll try again later!

 

[nosoks]

Mediums are the better choice for more consistent grip through the lap
I'm at 42.0xx, screenshot with (hopefully) some improvement to follow

I was thinking the Medium tires might be the way to go. If I knew the course like the back of my hand and wanted to do the "Bat out of Hell" thing; I'd run the softs for 1 lap. But seeing that I'm always making mistakes, Mediums it is.

Edit...I hate my phones keypad.
