  2. As part of our continuous maintenance and improvements to Assetto Corsa Competizione we will be releasing small updates on a regular basis during the esports season which might not go through the usual announcement process detailing the changes until a later version update where these changes will be listed retrospectively.
  3. If ACC doesn't start with an error or the executable is missing, please add your entire Steam directory to the exceptions in your antivirus software, run a Steam integrity check or reinstall the game altogether.

Generic Weekly Hotlap #65 : Porsche 911R

    Welcome to the thread for the Weekly Hotlap #65

    I have to get it organised early this week, we're having work done on the house and my set up has to be packed safely out of the way.

    Challenge 64 is still open until 2200 UK time January 21, but feel free to start this one if you wish.

    The Challenge.
    Car: Porsche 911R
    Track: Spa.



    I really like this car. It has a manual gearbox and I always find those more fun. I only have the two pedal set up with paddles but for those who have three and a gear lever this one will really come to life.

    This isn't as track focused as the GT3 RS, and really it suits a road circuit. It's awesome on "Highlands" but I can't choose those tracks every week. Spa has it's roots as a road circuit and we haven't been for a while. If we had the old track with Burnenville and Masta then that really would be something. One for the PC players perhaps?

    The Rules.
    Mode: Hotlap
    Time of day: Free
    Ambient Temp: 26 Degrees
    Setup: Free
    Controller: Free
    Assists: Factory
    Stability: Free

    If it isn't mentioned here then assume the setting is free.

    Please make sure you have the ambient temperature set correctly, and that you are in hotlap mode, I really don't like disallowing times!

    The Deadline.
    Sunday January 28th 2018 - 22:00 GMT.

    How to take part!
    To enter simply head into the game select Drive > Hotlap and choose the Porsche 911R (please get the right one. Manual gearbox remember!) and head to Spa. Make sure you setup the session using the settings detailed in this thread and hit the track!

    You can run as many laps as you like and update your times as often as you like, its simple :) All Platforms are welcome, it is all about having fun and enjoying Assetto Corsa.

    To submit a time, pause the game and select 'session' from the menu and screenshot this page or take a photo of your screen and post it in this thread - Note all the information from the screen is required including temperature, mode heading and of course the car being used!

    Feel free to post video clips and share information in here as well, but without the session screen your time will not be included (placing the session screen in a video clip is acceptable).

    You also need to state the time and your platform in the body of your post, this should be the first thing you do, the image should then be placed below the text. It would also be helpful to mark updated times with Improvement. This makes collating the results much easier.

    A leader board will be collated from time to time, this will keep everyone up to date on where they currently stand...Unfortunately editing of posts gets locked on this forum so this post will not be updated.

    Feel free to use the unofficial leader boardbut remember you still need to include the session screen in this thread to be included in the results.

    Good luck and have fun ;)

    A footnote to the above. A motorsport legend passed away this week. Dan Gurney reached a ripe old age when so many of his contemporaries did not.

    Le Mans victor, Grand Prix winner and perennial bridesmaid at Indianapolis, he was a racing driver.

    The second man to win a GP in his own car, the beautiful Eagle Weslake at Spa in 1967; only a few weeks after his Le Mans triumph.

    He gave Porsche their first Grand Prix victory, and along with the '67 Spa win there are a couple of links to this challenge.

    So when you fire this Porsche down the hill out of La Source, spare a thought for the All American Racer, a true Grand Prix Legend.

    RIP to Dan Gurney.Saw the sad news on a instagram page about motorsports a couple of day ago. One of my favourite drivers,drove the GT40 MKIV to victory at Le Mans in 1967.He was so tall and the car so low the engineers had to create a "buble" on the rooftop to accomodate his head,all the GT40's he drove had them.And that Eagle-Westlake was one of the coolest cars in the 60's,wish we had it on AC or PC! He also started the tradition of celebrating victories on the podium by throwing champagne at the 67 race at Le Mans.

    I used to be a PC player. I had GPL and a MS Sidewinder wheel. Then my Mrs. bought us a new computer and gave the old one to her mother.

    I tried installing GPL onto it but it was a different operating system and didn't work. I did a lot of damage messing around trying to get it going.

    It took her ages to sort it all out. She bought me an xbox360 and banned me from the computer for life.

    I've had an Xbox1 and now I'm on ps4, but what I really want is those old tracks from GPL. They're all there on the PC and I shall never have them.

    Yes i do remember how it could be difficult to install GPL on Pc .
    Did you had the change to drive the new old Spa created by Gino and friends at that time ?
    I'm thinking about old Zolder one off the create tracks GPl had , and than the KING off them all Targa florio phoewieieie .
    The car that I liked most was the Brabham BT24 in GPL .

    Appreciate the info and history lesson guys!

    As for the challenge, you're on a roll @moodyryder ! I'll try to get to this one ASAP since we're talking #PorschesAllDay, but I need to cool off from being ecstatic about the Philadelphia Eagles playing in the Super Bowl again - not to mention against Tom Brady. Oh, and I picked up yet another one of these Japanese action-RPG games made for young, single, and lonely males with too much time like myself called Cyberdimension Neptunia. Totally sabotaging my Hotlap career with these bad decisions! So yeah, those are my sad excuses for this week in advance...

    some years ago after a lot of work i could play gpl on a modern pc - it was a real mess, dunno how i did it exactly....^^:)

    but ac without the mods, cars and tracks, is only half of the fun for me. :eek:

    at racedepartment you can find a lot of historic tracks - :)

    dunno if its ripped content, found this some minutes ago:cool:

    Wow. A 2:36 to kick us off. Nice one, but really?! haha I'm struggling big time with braking and entry and could only manage a 2:42.2 so far. No mid-engine balance or 4WD to bail me out this time around! Lost count of how many times I locked up or simply didn't brake hard enough into turns, which would usually precede some kind of costly slide or off-track excursion. I'm not going to talk about how many barriers I already got acquainted with either. Nevertheless, this one seems to be about braking earlier and getting under power (albeit gradually) a little sooner to prevent all that weight of the rear from coming around suddenly. Maybe I'm lying to myself when I say this is my favorite road car to drive in AC...

    Yeah, right! Porsches all day baby! You guys know the deal.

    I clocked a 2:40 so far. Altough I love this track (even more in real life) I always struggle to nail all the corners in one lap. Is a 2:38-2:39 after some practicing possible?

    I think everybody know I love Porsche! When this car was announced as the last real Manual Porsche...as a little Bit of a GT3 without Wing I thought well what a great and sexy car. Even know I still think the same. The PriceBubble that this car created was massiven because of all These carflippers that bought it. I was really shocked that know after the new 911T Porsche brings the 911 GT3 Touring:) If I would be a owner of 911R I would be very pissed because the 911 GT3 Touring is exactly the same as a 911R:)
