Does this qualify as too posh, its a DIY cause I'm a poor convict

I dig it, looks similar in concept to mine. What app are you using on your tablet?

Of course it's cheatingbut I like your style. Nice work. Now back to playing on my i-phone.

No worries, we'll see you soon!

Several weeks ago but due to low sign ups the race never happened, so I figured I'd give it another shot since we seem to attract a slight crowd now. Just trying to hit some "vintage" tracks since they suit the car, but we don't have many so after this we'll be at modern tracks.

I'm such an idiot. I was thinking of the old Monza layout we ran. Homer Simpson, over and out. See 'ya tonight.

That's what I thought but I wasn't going to mention it.

Who's willing to share their set-up with me for tonight?

I will!! Lucky for you no changes will be required because I use the default setup (my crew has banned me from wielding a spanner).

 

[Brandon Wright]

Anyone else up for some vintage racing tonight? These cars are a hoot and we've still got plenty of spots left!

 

[John Greene]

room for Greene?

 

[Brandon Wright]

room for Greene?

Sure, but you have to give me one sympathy pass.

[Brandon Wright]

like last time and you mess it up

 

[Brandon Wright]

Good racing guys, that was fun. Any night my fastest lap is within a half second of @Chris James is a good one. We'll see you next week at Vallelunga!

Didn't get to do to much racin' with anyone, but I sure had a bloody good laugh
Good fun anyway.

 

[InsaneOzzie]

Good fun racing guys, shame I couldn't keep up with you aliens but it was fun trying to keep the little Alfa on the tarmac, maybe I'll do better next week

 

[Bobby Pennington]

Good fun guys. Make sure to tell your mates they are missing out. If they like the Assetto Corse 500 they should love these little jewels.

 

[Brandon Wright]

Great fun, hopefully we can get a bigger crowd next week because these cars deserve a full grid.

This has got to be the most underrated car in AC. Somewhat easy to drive, but hard to drive well. I raced a HistorX league for a year and a half, but AC feels much, much more realistic on the front end.

I discovered some video recording software in the GeForce package for my GPU. It seems easy to use, and doesn't hit my performance, so I thought I'd record my race and share it with you guys. I was really surprised to see how bumpy and jittery the camera view is. In the Rift, it's as smooth as silk. But in the video, you can really see some shaking when I'm stomping on pedals. I guess the VR is real enough that it fools the brain into using the inner ear to cancel out the bumps? Pretty cool.

The first few laps are interesting, then it gets kind of boring for about 12 laps. Just hotlapping. Brandon, was that you I was fighting with? Love it.
