I present to the forum my argument for the 333SP.

Pfft! They need to get that front splitter closer to the ground.

I would like to have an open cockpit club racer like that. I always liked that Kutch mod car, kinda felt like a hopped up SRF.

 

[Terronium-12]

Was I seeing things or was the 550M on the list as well?

Maranello? It was.

 

[Terronium-12]

Maranello? It was.

Awesome. Just wanted to make sure my eyes weren't seeing things that weren't listed.

 

[Pillo-san]

Cars that are more in stock:ish configuration would be on my list.
Race cars are so hard to borrow and compare against the cars in something like AC, but road going cars or track day focused ones are not that hard.

Bring me a 355 to ac, please

 

[Whitestar]

There's a Steam sale on AC and all DLC (except the RTR Pack) right now. 50-75% off.
Lasts until July 5.

Because I just bought a gaming laptop, well actually it was a gift from my lovely best-ever wife, I also bought AC via Steam with the discounted DLC.
Now figure out how it all works and feels in comparison with AC on PS4 A new learning curve?!

@Terronium-12, the poll is live again: http://www.assettocorsa.net/ferrari-70th-anniversary-pack/

EDIT: Wait what, the F1 2017 and the 488 GTE!! This just became really difficult.

 

[35mm]

Whatever comes out of the poll, I'm really looking forward to the 250 GTO, 330 P4 and the 288 GTO.


Also, fingers crossed that everything goes well for the consoles and that we get this pack this Fall as well.

 

[Whitestar]

Yeah, I can't wait to try that 330 P4.

EDIT: New patch also:
1.14.4
- Improved Ferrari 312T and Lotus 72D AI
- Renamed CPU line in Render Stats app "MAIN_T" as "Main thread" to avoid confusions
- Corrected Mercedes C9 front tyre wear
- Corrected Glickenhaus SCG003 setup dampers slider numbering
- Improved live axle simulation
- Updated live axle physics for Alfa Romeo GTA, Ford Escort RS, Maserati 250F 6cyl & 12cyl, Toyota AE86 stock, drift & tuned. Old setups might need to be tweaked again.
- Added seconds in timeline when replay length is over 1 hour
- Fixed Delta Graph script on Mclaren P1 GTR
- Real-life racing liveries added for the Maserati MC12 GT1

Looks like the Maserati maybe got its Vitaphone livery?

 

[BrandonW77]

Was the 488 GTE on the list? If not, someone can have my vote.

Looks like you can have your vote back.

But now I'm not sure what to vote for. The 488 GTE would help fill out that class but the 458 already fills that roll ok, the 512 would help fill out a class that's in more need of playmates. Decisions, decisions.

[Whitestar]

I'm guessing the F1 2017 or the 488 GTE is gonna snatch it. Voted for the 512M. All 3 are really fine by me. Win, win, win.

 

[ALB123]

If we get another Ferrari 458 or 488 variant of any kind, I am going to blow my brains out. Don't worry. I'll broadcast it live so you all can watch.

I'm not nearly as knowledgeable about race cars as most people in here (probably). There must be a few different Ferrari's on the list that will compete directly with something we already have officially, right? I believe the 512 M was mentioned already - competing against a Porsche model.

Aside from adding Porsche 917 competition, the 512 M is something to admire almost 50 years on. The 488 GTE will become a forgettable chapter within the next 10 years.

As I said a few days ago, I'm quite sure the Ferrari 312 P competed with the Porsche 908.

Agreed. But the 488 GTE will get an order of magnitude more use online in the years to come which IMO makes it a more valuable addition for us online racers. Tough choice, the emotional side of me wants the 512M but the practical side wants the 488 GTE.

My gut feeling says that the 488 GTE is something Kunos could easily add in some future car pack because it will most likely stay relevant for a few years to come, whereas the 512 M looks more like a now or never opportunity. Since we're supposed to celebrate 70 years of Ferrari, the nostalgic vote is in my opinion the most appropriate.

Yeah, I was honestly surprised to see it added to the list because it feels like one that should be in a regular DLC pack and note one we have to spend a vote on.

Well, the other 6 accomplish that nicely and since we desperately need playmates for other cars the pragmatic vote is winning in my mind. But, I can't help but think that whatever one I vote for is not going to be the winner so I'm not dwelling on it too much. Based on reactions from the AC forums over the last week I'd guess the F50 is probably going to win.

 

[AlvaroF]

I went 575 GTC. I love old GT cars, and the 575 is probably on my top 10 Ferraris. So yeah.

I have been alternating between the 512 M and F50, but I'm getting more and more convinced I will go with the vintage racing machine. The F50 looks weird but it drives and sounds like the finest the 1990s had to offer. I wouldn't mourn its inclusion, but I also see the 512 M standing a fair chance.

 

[ALB123]

I don't get it either. Even Ferrari knows the F50 was a bit of a let-down based on reviews, customer & the public's general reactions toward the car. Was the F50 the first Ferrari that was not allowed to be "tested" by the major automobile magazines of that era? I might be wrong, but I swear Ferrari forbade the instrument measuring & publication of any performance numbers.

Personally I hope not, however do not rule out the 355 winning. Voters on here a d AC forum are a small number, go on their FB page and you'll see the 355 is a popular vote. I have no problem with that but I want the 333SP or the 641 F1.

Well its unfair for you to have to go through that so I suggest you make life easy and guilt free for yourself and vote for the 333SP.

Totally agree with this, I feel we will or least could see the 488 GTE and the F1 2017 down the line. Whilst the older models maybe not so much.


#vote333SP

 

[RacingManiac]

This:

is much better than this:

And I'd never for for 575 GTC because of that...

I want to vote F50 because it seems to be pretty rare to see that in a sim. I also kinda like 430 Scuderia...

Best Motoring tested/reviewed the F50, it's best lap time was slower at Tsukuba than the F40 ( Gan-san was at the wheel )

 

[Tired Tyres]

I voted for the 512. I must say, it's completely unacceptable for Kunos to make me only chose one. I want them all.

Those cars that you get to choose from are probably already modelled or close to being finished, so perhaps we will some day.

 

[Dhalism]

All Prototypes are awesome in AC but with the exception of the turbo lotus F1 cars seem lackluster. 312t4 is my favorite car on the list but i'm also voting for 512 for that reason

 

[GregTheStig]

I ended up voting 512M though a 333SP (or really any of the options they give us) would have been sick too.

 

[BrandonW77]

Surprisingly, I ended up voting for the 575 because apparently it will play nicely with the MC12 and I'm more likely to use those cars than the 512/917.
