Description
This book is a comprehensive guide to race driving on Assetto Corsa, a new racing simulator from Kunos Simulazioni. It is not a gaming guide. If you are seeking a gaming guide that teaches you shortcuts on achievement badge earning, tips on points scoring, or cheats on beating online opponents unfairly, you have come to a wrong place. What you will find in this book are technical topics covering graphics card tweaking, force feedback customisation, simulator configuration, race car dynamics, racing components, car set-up, driving techniques, racing rules, race tactics, and psychology of race driving. I also present the racing lines for all the laser-scanned tracks, up to and including the latest version. I describe each track, corner-by-corner and bump-by-bump, with the cockpit view screenshots.
