Season 18 - Prototype Pot-luck!

Hmm - for long tracks like Spa I could raise the start value a bit. But on shorter circuits with the gain settings we have you'll be on near enough full grip in 10-15 laps.
The settings that we and most other leagues run are utterly unrealistic though, The closest thing to a 'fast' track I've ever been on from the start of a day was Coombe, a couple of weeks after they resurfaced. Prior to that a fresh day after rain would be more like 60 or 70% in AC land

This is a historic endurance series though - You'll be looking after your car as much as you will be racing regardless of grip levels (both Porsches and the Fez need the gearbox looked after, the 908 also has no limiter ).
Approaching it like a sprint race or fighting for every inch from the get go will not give a good result.

The Sebring version we currently use is one of my favourite tracks. The Reboot team has just released a new version which is simply on another level

Any chance of using this one from now on?

Given the Rules Dave has for us when running stuff do you know what the tracks source is?
If it's a rip from some other title then we can't run it here

Not sure   I believe this new version has been in the making for a long time by the Reboot team as an update to their old version. The comments seem to suggest thanking the team for all their hard work so doubt they'd be doing that if it was just an evenings work by some rip artist.

Edit: It seems the Reboot version is a rip after all....from rF2 which is all the more reason to use it

Just having a look at Hockenheim for next week's race, there is a choice of low, medium and high bumps (road mesh) for the surface.

I tried the default which I presume is medium and my eyeballs were rattling in their sockets  don't think I can stand that for 90 minutes. The low mesh is better but still rougher than any other track we use, while I didn't even bother with the high mesh.

Maybe worth considering running the low mesh?

While I can look at that - We have run this exact track with the 908's (Stiffest cars IMO) in the past with no complaints. One thing to try is simply softening and raising your suspension - I'm 90% certain that's what I did in the fun race.
Failing that use a GT40

It's nice to have an authentically bumpy track for a change, so I'd rather not wuss out and race 60's cars on a 2000+ spec surface if we can help it. Please have a got with softer car settings and see how it feels

Or use the Real Head Motion app  to smooth out the visuals a bit (https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/real-head-motion-for-acc-is-here.63606/ use this ACC updated version, works in AC and ACC exactly the same).  I cant play on a big screen without it because that damn horizon bouncing up/down just gives me a headache.
