Hi there
#1
Jay Behr, new to sim racing, and especially to online racing.

Greener than a cabbage, but keen to learn.  Coming to terms with a Logitech G920, slowly but surely. 

Sim: Assetto Corsa.  I also have the free/trial version of Raceroom, but haven't really got into that one yet.

I think I'll be buying AC Competizee ... Compeetitsi ... CompoCleggsi ... The Blancpain GT one! ... in the New Year too though, coz I love watching GT racing.  

UTC? GMT, with ice and a slice.

Welcome there matey.

Racing online with other people will sure make you learn a lot faster. As long as you don't dive into the pack on turn 1 and respect blue flags you're already ahead of a few users here.
You can find great tutorials to help you get faster from the youtube channel driver61 which can be found here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtbLA0Y...QhFUyPQU9Q
And the youtuber Emptybox who you can find here https://www.youtube.com/user/TacticalCardboard
(When I started out about a year ago with simracing it helped me out quite a lot. The one especially about trail braking will gain you a lot of time in general, but especially in AC)

I cannot stress this enough, but make sure you set up the correct Field of view. You can calculate it here: https://www.projectimmersion.com/fov/

As for the series, look around on the forum here. You will need to download tracks/cars if you don't have them and you will need to extract them in the correct place.

You can also download a lot of user created apps for AC. The ones I would advise you to download are
Helicorsa - https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads...orsa.5199/
Sidekick - https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads...ick.11007/
TheSetupMarket - http://thesetupmarket.com/#/ (You can download setups from people, or upload your own for others)
RSR livetiming - http://www.radiators-champ.com/RSRLiveTiming/ (Keeps track of your laptimes, I find it handy to see how far off pace I am, or what time I have driven previous and now can't seem to get close to)
SRSskinapp - can be found here on the forum.

Hope this helps.
