IMOLA - Track Guide For Assetto Corsa Competizione 

Definitely! This track feels so strict in that regard ...

I feel the track limits r Inconsistent. Cut a corner and no warning next lap u do the same and u get a warning

same, cant get below 46's and its so frustrating

Did you guys get it? In 720s I'm at 1:46:212

I’m also around 1:46.3 in Porsche. Though I’ve identified where I can gain more speed.. my issue is not carrying enough speed through corners, and also still braking a little too early in some spots.

Awwww thanks mate!!!!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

how do you manage a 1:33 here?

@@crazylicious6979 sorry dude, got my timing completely wrong. I'm nowhere near that! I guess cider confused my brain. Love Jards btw

i'm at 46.2..... :D

Same, I did 1:44 and I was very happy haha

LOL, my goal always is to be within 5 secs behind... :D I think it's the thousands of hours Jardier put into racing, so experience wins. Also, i've never done that throttle pedal fiddling. Maybe it really helps. BTW: Acque Minerali, he pressed and released the throttle 5 times (!) just on the entry. I did it maybe once? Maybe...

He is in hotlap mode, so tyres have almost perfect grip and track is in perfect condition as well. That being said, even in this mode, there are some very strange results, for example top^speed I can get even when changing rear wing is 5 km/h lower, even with a MUCH BETTER exit (which is NOT the case) you can't get 5 km/h more at 260+ km/h on a so small straight line, so his car accelerates faster, no matter what. I tried changing ECU MAP, which enhances a bit more my own results but there is still a huge delta time between him and me. I really don't know how he manages to get that fast, it is not obviously driving skills (ok he is a bit better than me but NOT 3 seconds faster, there are even some turns I am faster soo...), it seems to be something else but I fail to see what. I don't use any help, at all, maybe there is something to not disable, don't know...but very interesting, indeed. And don't think I'm trying to avoid my own lack of skill, I'm really aware of my capabilities and I know that after driving for years on iRacing I avoid "mistreating" the car because it meant death each time in iRacing (huge tyre grip problem in iRacing that prevents attacking to gain time, not to mention car contacts that were a spin 95% of the time....all those habits need to be forgotten in ACC, trust me it doesn't come in 1 lap). I'm 100% sure that even with much better skills (an friend of mine that have a 8k iRating is doing the same lap times as me in ACC for example) I won't be able to gain 3 seconds...3 seconds is HUGE on a 1:40ish lap, it is really a huge time delta that needs some explanations.

@@jean-marctrappier4436 if you watch the live preview race for the Imola DLC with RU-vidrs & developers, you'll see most of the top drivers were able to hit 1.40 to 1.41 in qualifying (not Hotlapping). Not everyone at the event was able to hit those times, but all of the top 15 were able to, and that's with almost no practice at Imola in ACC. A couple of the devs, Darin & Vasilakos, drove 42s. They didn't suggest that anything suspicious was going on with the top simracing RU-vidrs. It's just years - for some, decades - of simracing experience ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oY8rgkzXWI8.html

@@91Fusion Some misconception here, I didn't pretend something was suspicious, at all...I am just wondering why us (me and some other iRacing pilots that are enjoying ACC as well) are driving 2 to 4 seconds slower than ppl on ACC, there must be a reason and beyond the different parameters and setup options that we don't have in iRacing, I think there is the chassis flex and the tyre model that play a great role here. In iRacing I avoid as much as I can to "hurt" the car, I try to be the smoothest I can because it is the only way to drive fast in iRacing. The tiniest slide is either a lot of time lost or spin, so we learned to avoid this as much as we can, so we don't attack the corner as much as you can in ACC. I think the problems lies here or is part of the problem. Track is not exactly the same neither, kerbs are much more dangerous in iRacing than in ACC (imho). That being said, I would LOVE to get telemetry from someone driving that fast to understand where I lose all this time because I can understand being 1 second slower than others but 4 seconds from top pilots and even 2 seconds from DEVS (!!!!), something is terrible wrong here so there is something I don't understand in ACC that prevents me from being quicker. Me and other ppl I talk about are also simracing for years, decades even...it is not the only reason then, there is something else. For example my feeling with FFB is very strange, I have serious issues feeling the car perfectly like I do in iRacing or rF2, ACC have something very strange in its ffb, can't get it to be like I want it to be, missing a lot of information. Yeah I know what some are thinking, "it is because ACC don't add fake effects, nia nia nia"...no, it is not, some information that SHOULD be present aren't, I don't fell when I lose rear, I don't fell when I brake, etc...very disturbing.

maybe i'm entering too fast sacrificing the exit.

Different cars have different braking zone but ABS, brake bias and how the car is set up all play a part in how the car brakes as well

@@WontedMender8 True. But, even if the porsche can brake later, i think i'm losing time because i'm too late on the accelerator after the corners followed by long straights.

Yep:)

That's the fastest thing i bought in my entire life lol, not even a slight hesitation xD

You can get it up to pace but you will struggle in race situations because of low top end speed. With fuel load it's actually very stable over the curbs but you have to drive much safer when it's nearing empty. Braking zone into Aqua Minerale is hella difficult but it's possible to have a consistent line with the Porsche as well.

Being fast here in porsche is pretty hard..

You will suffer because of your top speed but worth the try.

Damn I tried to memorize what you said by cutting corners and using your brake markers and came down to a 1:43.9 but getting to a 1:40 isn't going to happen

Well a direct drive wheel is also a little bit easier to catch slides unlike non dd wheel bases. Also practice and practice you start to learn where you can get better just takes time.

This guy should have won the last download code @Jardier - He can see into the future

Replying to myself : well, my settings were green track, 42°....changed to optimum and 27° and very surprisingly, I did a 1:41.7 at 2nd try...changes A LOT of things...pretty sure I can get to 1:40 as well (high 1:40, not low)

Oh yeah 42 C is waaaay too hot :)

I was happy with my 41.5 but not have to go back re try it after this 🤦‍♂️🤣 don't know where or even if I could find 1.4 seconds from. A 40.1 is mighty around here
