AC Social Event: GT4 @ Silverstone GP - Tue 10Jul18

[RasmusP]

The GT4 are back to teach you the basics of driving like a champ!
Join us for a night of fun and banter!

Wait? What is this?
For this event you need absolutely nothing special. A copy of Assetto Corsa, keyboard, console controller, or steering wheel it's all fine. Today we are going to focus on getting you on the online track (for the first time) and giving you a great experience and making you a better driver.

Make sure to be on time for the extended practice session and have teamspeak installed and be with us for the full length of the event. This is the longest session of almost an hour to get familiar with the car and the track. That's right, you don't need to practice offline first. You can come by fully unprepared

After practice we move to qualification to decide the racing order and do a short fun race of only 30 minutes so everybody can return to their wives, girlfriends, mom in time.

Who can join?
All premium members using their full Real Name in the forum, race servers and teamspeak can sign up for this event and we have unlimited slots available so make sure to bring a friend. Sign up below and make sure to tag fellow community members who you think are up for a challenge!

A message to all Drivers
If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.

Golden Rule

1. Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
   You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Nice. Sign me in with Maserati, please.
Hopefully my new rig will come in time. I have sold my old today

 

[Chris Down]

That was reckless! You're in

I'm in in the Maserati

Done!

 

[Medilloni]

Yes please, the Mazza for me

 

[Neilski]

You're in

 

[Richard Dastardly]

Someone has to take it, so Porsche please.

Alternatively, G55

Good for you We'll try not to lap you

 

[Richard Dastardly]

Good for you We'll try not to lap you

Hrmph. I presume no-one's bopped these ( and the G55 ) like the nice GTE Bop we ran at LM?

 

[Neilski]

I think (@RasmusP?) we found some tracks where the Porsche has the edge (and some drivers preferred it in general), but to be fair those tests were probably with factory settings for assists on both cars (and then the Porsche has both TC and ABS, while the Maserati has neither).

 

[Richard Dastardly]

I've run equal times at Mugello with them, but looking at my laps, only Mugello. As long as there's no corners I guess the Cayman wins

 

[Prince-Matt]

I am in ! With the Porsche this time please.
Too bad that the assist are still available on the Maserati.

 

[Neilski]

Welcome aboard

 

[Snake3rd]

Put me down for the Porsche please!

 

[Chris Down]

I suppose that since this is <10 people this is likely to be cancelled? Just checking whether to practice or not.

 

[Neilski]

You're in

Well, I'm planning to go ahead and run it despite the low turnout (unless we have multiple people abandon it in the next hour or so). With a little luck we might get some late signups.

 

[FridayDriver]

I'd like to join in the Maserati if you guys are still doing this.

Great! I'm still in then.

Cool! You are in but I can't edit the list right now
