We hope you, our community and customers, find this useful and we thank you for your support so far. You can also find below what we deem the crossover point between track states and how that impacts your choices. What we want this diagram to allow you to do is to assess what changes you feel need to be made in a relatively quick fashion, a reference guide that can showcase what areas of the car you need to pay attention to. The wetter the track gets the more changes you will need to make, whereas some sessions will demand less. What this encompasses are almost all of the changes you would typically make when adjusting a dry setup to a wet setup. With that in mind, instead of dedicated setups, we at the CDA thought it would therefore be best to release a wet setup workflow diagram. Anything under that is considered dry setup territory, where only minor tweaks need to be made and your goal is on maintaining temperature in your slick tyres. Now in Assetto Corsa Competizione, dry setups actually have a high working range which only start to become unpredictable and nervous when the track state and rain level reach a certain stage.įrom our experience, when the track state becomes “wet” and the rain level intensifies to “medium rain” that is the moment substantial changes need to start being applied to the setup. NEW: Looking for a wet setup but don’t have time to do it yourself? Grab one of our new ACC Wet Setup Bundles here. Track state, rain intensity, track temperature and standing water level are just a handful of these factors you have to consider. Whilst we have focussed on dry setup releases thus far, offering an opportunity for customers to understand how and what changes you need to make for a wet track, is something we wanted to release.īecause there are so many more variables with a wet track that influences car behaviour, it would be much more difficult for us to release wet setups that work across all these different variables. does GTR2 simulate a dynamic racing surface drying out after rainfall ends? If so, how? Or does it immediately dry up the moment the rain stops? Would love to learn more about this.A wet track demands not only a different way of driving, but also a different direction in setup. As far as I could tell, my new slick tyres behaved like normal slick tyres on a dry surface. As they should, on a dry track! So I pitted in and got dry tyres like everyone else and carried on until the end. Installation: Move all files in the rFactor folder into your rFactor installation folder and allow overwrite. I decided to stay out at first, because it was a sprint race, and I noticed on the LCD that my (wet) tyres were heating up like crazy. I was momentarily confused, then realized this must be for dry tyres. Then I noticed some AI cars were immediately pitting in. However, for a lap or so it seemed that there was still rain on the track in some places, because I could see AI cars' tire tracks on the track in front of me, but not everywhere e.g. The physics also seemed to abruptly change to a grippier feeling, although I can't say for sure. Was really abrupt, caught me off guard, but hey, it's fine. Wipers disappeared, as you would expect, because the rain texture on the windscreen was gone.

Then the rain suddenly stopped, two laps in. Anyway, it was pouring rain at the start. So I did, at Monza (although I usually have more diverse tastes than a "white bread" choice like that haha). I always leave the weather on changeable so that I sometimes get rain, and so the game gives varying surface and air temperatures that aren't always 20 degrees Celsius. Decided to hop in for a few minutes and do a quick race in GTR2 HQ Porsches the other day.
