Porsche 911 rsr

 

[Paul Jeffrey]

Nice full grid all booked up people! Exciting times ahead

Now we have quite a few days until the race, so let's see if we can get some more signups and get the reserves list covered or maybe event enough for another server

 

[Mapu]

will there be a penalty weight for some of the cars?

 

[Glaurung]

will there be a penalty weight for some of the cars?

At Spa this BOP has been used:
- M3 GT2 0 kg
- 458 GT2 10 kg
- C7R 25 kg
- 911 RSR 30 kg

 

[celeste]

[Celestiale]

Put me in the reserves please, in case i can choose the car when moving up, i'd go for the M3

After testing, I was wondering why the Porsche 919 drives like a understeering pig. So I went to google and found this:

The Porsche 919 Hybrid, as it appears in Assetto Corsa, is the low downforce configuration of the race car – only built for a single event on the 2015 World Endurance Championship schedule, the 24 Hours of Le Mans held at Circuit de la Sarthe. No matter how high you jack up the wing settings within the game’s garage menu, the underlying aerodynamic properties – hard values you can’t adjust without decrypting the physics files, manually adjusting the numbers yourself, and receiving multiple online bans for tampering – are based around a one-off version of the Porsche 919 built to go fast in a straight line.

That explains a lot

I don't know where and who made those statements, but in AC the car produces a downforce such that you car reach peak values of lateral acceleration of 4g at the double Arrabbiata and 4.5 g at Radillon.
Those values are in F1 territory.
The 919 has a natural tendency to understeer because it's 4WD, with a massive power output at the front when accelerating and releasing the electrical power.

Edit: nevermind, I've discovered the source of that informations

 

[Frank]

919 (2016) on reserve please, let me know if anyone signs out .

 

[Celestiale]

You can put me off the reserve list..

 

[Luca Antinori]

Sorry, I have to sign out

 

[Glaurung]

@celeste you're in the entry list now.

 

[Mapu]

I'll take the RSR for the fun of it

 

[Glaurung]

The grid looks a bit unbalanced with too few LMP1s, so I switch in the other class with a 919 2015 to make @Andreas Knöpke less alone

 

[Glaurung]

How do you consider the overtake of Buemi over Hartley?

 

[Blauweke]

I'll enter as a reserve with the 2016 919

 

[Matuszczak Piotr]

Sign me up with C7R

 

[Lesley Buurlage]

7 prototype cars, 17 gt's, that is going to be absolute madness (overtaking the gt cars i mean, i don't think i've a chance overtaking other prototypes xD)

Indeed it's a massive GT pack .
