Good video! There is this one corner in Monza where I use track safety worker as an braking reference. Thank god the guy never moves:)

Considering you are speaking a non native idiom while driving and doing a tutorial you drove absolutely nice! Its a joy to see the dev of the game having so much fun with his own game, this is awesome! Great video Aris, keep up!

YouTube finally nailed a great suggestion. Aristotelis already helped me more than once in Assetto Corsa forums and to see a tutorial like this from him... That's great. Luckily more episodes will come.

The career mode is actually quite cool. Considering how AC basically simulates how real cars drive. The career mode is like a virtual driving school. It would be quite cool if they included a driving course that you could listen to while playing the game. I guess this does it

This is as educational as you can get in 40 minutes of a driving sim video. Thank you, I think I learned so much from this. Just to put this into practice.... Reference point, reference point, reference point, got it.

This is a lot harder than it looks! Thanks so much for the video. I'm having a lot of fun, getting a wee bit better but have a lot more practicing to do! And no worries about your English, it's very good and I had no problems listening at all.

Never driven track, just got myself a starter G29 wheel and needed exactly that. You sir got yourself a follower :) Thanks a lot!

[domainmojo]

Wow! The dev speaking...
This game got me into sim driving! Thanks Aris! (It inspired me to build my own wheel and pedals - and I'm planning my rig now)
Subbed!
- Love from Africa!

EDIT: Wow! THAAANK YOUUU! I immediately tried to put all these to the test and from regularly ending up in 10th/11th- never even making it past 9th, I've now ended up 4th/5th 6 times in a row- and I've tested these techniques only 7 times in a row now! I used to slide or miss corners, understeer or oversteer all over the place, dreaded approaching corners- I wasn't in full control of the car, and now I feel like I'm flowing with the track! It was basically immediate improvement to 7th and then 5th!
I didn;t think the improvement would be this quick and massive!
Wow, wow, wow! "Slow in... fast out"
Thanks buddy- you're a freakin hero man!

No problems with your English. It very good. Much better than our Dutch politicians which try to speak English fluently but really sounds like a crow in despair ;-)

But to the serious side, what a great video and great explanation of the topic. The problem with most videos out there is that they go way to fast over the topic of using a track and often lacks showing the difference in a less optimal balance and a fast fix stable balance.

It is a great video and it would be a killer to have a ongoing serie like this. And I personally even wouldn't mind it if it is going to be a paid service. I find it that good and usefull!

yep, if someone is slow first thing to sort out is the driving lines, setup can help you find half a second, proper lines can find you 3 seconds :)
great vid, thanks

This video is like an island of hope in quality content about AC in the YouTube ocean... Aris, please, continue with the series about Assetto Corsa. Yorkie did for PCars2. Assetto Corsa is devoted for the serious sim racer and a material like this would be great, the No 1 reference. Please, consider it with care. The community would appreciate it. Thank you for posting. L&S.

Damn it, after all this time i was trying to balance the temperatures of the tires, not the pressure. That explains things. Thanks for the driving tips, subscribed for more.

Really enjoyed your video, and your easy explanations of the set-up changes and replay breakdowns.

[FlavioLeonardVargas]

What a Class! thank You very much!
Just bought a G29 and slowly improving, but get a little better day by day.
I´m very good with keyboard, and played AC for a year just with keyboard.
I use to play racing games since PC AT 286 with green screen! I´m having such a great time with AC and my G29!

Greetings from Brazil!

And your English is perfectly understandable, love the accent! :-)

Φιλε ευχαριστω παρα πολυ. Αυτο με τα replay δε το σκευτηκα ποτε! Επισης κανεις ακριβως αυτο που θελω, να σπουδασω πληροφορικη και να δουλεψω σε Sim racing games. Μπραβο σου, σου ευχομαι οτι καλυτερο!

[gamingpoptart]

Thank you so much, such a little adjustment in my driving made an immense difference

[TonyCalvert]

Great video, I still struggle to put into practice the principles you give but I am improving all the time.

[canjiica]

Near 26:10 is when the tyre pressure topic is discussed. Great video!

[ttco]

Great video, hope to see a lot more tutorials like this! Especially tips like the one at 36:20 - things like that might seem trivial to some, but I bet a lot of drivers make errors like that all the time (myself included)! And of course, as many already commented, a couple of in-depth setup tutorials would be much appreciated. Also, while on the subject, I think the in-game descriptions of setup options could use a lot of work too, especially for those of us not savvy in car mechanic/setup. But, great work from Kunos, as always - keep up the good work :)
