AC VLN Series? - Michal Logaciuk - 01-22-2018
Hi,
I wonder If there was a chance to create something like this?
We have VLN Layout in AC, why not create the virtual AC VLN races? For example 1 or 2 hour races on Nordschleife/Nurburgring Cup Layout with GT3 cars, Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, BMW M235i Cup and Porsche Cayman CS GT4?
That could be a good 'pro' like series.Something similiar is in iRacing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWjRw95ntT4).

VLN? What is that?
RE: AC VLN Series? - Michal Logaciuk - 01-22-2018
VLN Endurance Racing Championship Nürburgring
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veranstaltergemeinschaft_Langstreckenpokal_N%C3%BCrburgring)
That are multiclass 4 hour races (in this case in SRS it should be around and 1 or max 2 hours.
Race is taken on Nordschleife Cup layout (VLN layout) which is 24km per lap.
It's pinacle of endurance racing since we have GT3 cars, alongside with Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars, smaller and weaker GT4 cars or similiar cup cars like BMW 235i, Cayman CS GT4 and even normal cars like Renault Clio etc.

Well, the Nordschleife races here are most of the time incident championships instead of racing competitions
RE: AC VLN Series? - Michal Logaciuk - 01-22-2018
Hell yeah, it is not hard for me to don't believe it. But I think that 1 hour or 2 hour race on Nords VLN, would not be a race for total amateurs.
I got inspired by this iRacing event: https://youtu.be/IWjRw95ntT4?t=1h36m15s
But I am not willing to go through this whole licence system.
So I thought that It would be nice to use AC. Since we have all needed cars.
I think RaceDepartment would be kind to post an info about such event.
Just imagine, cycle races on Nords VLN for example one time a week or even two times a week?
Why not have to 'create prolike' scene which iRacing has?

I think for SRS that's a bit to much. But it already exists: https://www.virtualracing.org/assetto-corsa/vrln/serien-infos/

I'd be up for this. For all the Nords races I've ever raced in, I could count on one hand the good ones. I'm not so sure about the mixed classes though, that's asking for trouble IMHO.
A 1 hour race to test the water perhaps with just the GT3's shouldn't be too troublesome to host.

there was a 1h race on gt2 champ 2 months ago, half the drivers had like 20 incidents/race

Oh dear, much like public server racing then
Maybe a 2 hour race would be better then.

Or maybe use tracks known from endurance racing? For example: Spa, Monza or Bathurst? And use the extendended ones with about 30 pitstops?
And mix the GT3 with GT3 Cup, GT4, BMW 235i together with Porsche Cayman CS GT4?
