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

[HammyMansell]

You told me almost same when I was missing Audi TTS for Nordschleife TT....

Well i'm not going to tell you NOT to get the DLC man, am i? It's more for your benefit than mine that you get them, as they are great cars in that pack.

I hope you can pick the DLC up at some time in the future.

Getting better. I beat my personal best, and I might as well submit the time. This most likely will not be my final attempt because I have tomorrow and Friday to get some more time. Anyways I am currently sitting at a 1:53.198.

It looks like I am topping out in the 1:53's...

After watching my replay, I see where I can gain some 10ths. I've got a lot work to do.

Well done man, strong start!!

I have a question, and I am sorry for being a bit off topic but; in the thread title you've used the acronym CRAP. What does it stand for?

 

[nosoks]

CRAP = Casual Racing Affiliates Program it's a club established by @Heathenpride and some others

My first kick at tt is a 1:50.002

Nice time mate, and gents @nosoks is one of the original CRAPpers too! I joined in August 2015 with Pcars 1.

 

[HammyMansell]

A couple of new times:

@SpaceBreed:

1:49:530!

And @nosoks with an improved time:

1:49:645!

Very close for the lead now.........I'll have a go tomorrow i hope!

 

[Slapped]

I haven't had much time this week so it'll be Saturday morning session for me to get a time out.

Seeing the results so far is good. I now know where I need to be, and I suspect it's not going to be easy.

 

[nosoks]

Did some this afternoon to edge up a bit 1:49.529

 

[HammyMansell]

Finally got time to have a go, fun car, you can brake really late i found.

1:48.420.........You can get on the power early too, just low grip over those kerbs, especially the astroturf stuff, slippy slippy!

Remember we finish tomorrow night gents!

 

[nosoks]

for sure you need care on the kerbs........... ooooh look at me..... I'm a ballerina

 

[HammyMansell]

Haha Najinski Nosoks!!

It's one of the few unrealistic things i see in AC, the kerbs and astroturf are too slippery, sure the cars should lose a bit of grip. or traction on them, but not to the degree that happens in the game. Even the modern F1 cars get loose on them at high speed. I think it might be down to the tyre model, not enough flex......Opppps i'm in trouble now lol!!

 

[Dopplegagger]

A slight improvement.

After a few hours of trying, I haven't improved much... Sigh!

 

[Slapped]

I really cannot gel with this car - It's the understeer dammit.

1.52.270

Probably my final entry, as if I carry on I'll probably need a new display.

 

[nosoks]

1:49.036 is my last effort

What's the problem with the display, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Dopplegagger]

I've found that to be the case, way more than I wanted to. A turn that is kicking my butt more than others is the right hander in the middle of the back half. It's a seemingly simple turn that I can take flat out in many of the other cars in AC, but for the 3 Eleven (and a couple of Mod cars), I have to be careful of applying too much throttle... If not, then I might as well turn on The Safety Dance by Men Without Hats.

Presently nothing. It’s the future destiny of the display that I’m worried about, should I drive this track and car combo again anytime soon.

 

[HammyMansell]

A time from @Georgeagea

1:48.937!

Repeat after me...

Namaste.

Right when I was feeing down about getting trounced by the AI on the lowest setting at Imola, I get the update about this new Time Trial. And all of a sudden, things don't seem to be as bad anymore.

[Dopplegagger]

Getting a feel for the car and the track. The car pretty much does what I want it to do. Which is surprising, because; the same car is a tank slapping nightmare in Forza. I'm dwelling in the 1:53's but that is before really getting settled into the car. I'll have a better go tomorrow. Hopefully I will be feeling better. I'm trying to quit drinking Coffee and Caffeine heavy drinks, and it's day 3. So that means headaches and general curmudgeonry.

 

[nosoks]

If you're running it at Imola your times will be a bit off, the rest of us are running at Redbull Ring
Also good luck quitting caffeine, I have been failing at that for over 50 years

And bacon sandwiches Mr soks............

 

[nosoks]

Why in the world would anyone quit eating bacon sandwiches???

 

[HammyMansell]

Exactly squire!

Here's an early time from @nosoks to give us something to aim for:

1:28.594

The Porsche comes in green too, if you wish to partake!
