Hi guys, from my experience, 100% damage in AC is unrealistic. For example today I had same minor contact (light yellow in the hud) and I lost more that 20 Km/h in the straight.I race in other leagues and everywhere the damage is well below 100% (usually 35%). I'm speaking of the GT3 championship, dunno for other categories.
What do you think?

I agree with Marco. I had the same problem yesterday: I had to pit and my race was over...

Same here today with the top-speed (265 instead of 285 km/h). People started overtaking like i´m in a slower class and unlikely not getting bumped from behind in the first lap or even corner. Second problem is, that the guys hitting me have less damage than my car, because front-splitter is not affecting top-speed. And not realistic to get any aero-damage form a small bump anyway.
From four races i could just finished one. Both races on Monday and Tuesday people hit me in the back first and third corner. Car roasted and race finished. Today some idiot did some burnouts last corner and again. And the Dallara is to sensible as well to any kind of contact. Maybe more realistic with this cars, but no fun.

totally agree, had exactly the same problem. some minor contact in the first couple of turns, and lost 20 km/h on the straights. race is pretty much over after that, because one loses more than one second on the long straight (in paul ricard) alone.
please reduce damage. 35%, like proposed by marco, sound good!

At the moment there's enough people for one split only usually and there's a wide spread of abilities in that split. So maybe a reduction in the damage level is a good idea.
In the future when hopefully there's a lot more people using SRS, then you could have 100% damage for split 1, 80% for split 2 etc...

That's why the damage should be set at 35%, it's wrong right now and it's not realistic, so there's no good reason, even realism, for keep it at 100%. Just look at any major league, no one is using 100%...
