Welcome to Round 3 of the Hot Lap Challenge

Sim: Assetto Corsa
Track: Hungaroring
Car: Lotus Exos 125
Weather: Clear
Track: Optimum
Temperature: 20.0C
Wind: 0k/m

If you do not have Assetto Corsa, please submit your times with the sim you are using, replicating the track conditions as closely as possible.

Please use the car’s default setup. You may only adjust fuel levels, tyres, TC, ABS, and Brake Bias.

You have until 13/08/2023 23:59 to submit your best lap. Please only submit times in a top level comment. If you have already submitted a lap and you improve, please edit your top level comment.

Please include a screenshot of your lap time for verification.

Rain

We were going to make this a wet weather challenge, but wet weather requires paid mods. Please let us know if you're happy for that. We will write up a guide for this if we have a wet challenge.

Last time out

This one proved more popular! SimpleDev took the W with an outstanding lap.

That’s a fair enough opinion, as a developer of various crap and even more specifically specific ECU tunes used for performance events etc..I’m a bit opposite in I find it slightly annoying companies and people want to keep everything close to themselves and not share anything.

Especially if it doesn’t impact them if it’s being used on another one of their own products. But that’s just my stance.

I can see both viewpoints as equally valid.

As for the car suggestions I’m just GT3’d out, that’s all sim racing has been for the past few years hah! But I’ll drive what the people vote for regardless!

Fair enough, I can def see where those who take mods from anywhere come from. I just hope these challenges won't rely on it too much.

Agreed, I’m all for some variability in what sim and cars we use!

Happy to keep that in mind. Feel free to put forward suggestions!

One idea is to use a common GT3 car. Such as the Audi R8 LMS 2016. it's in AC, ACC and iR. The track is paid content in both ACC and iR, so there chances of people here having it is good, though the iR version of the R8 is a bit stronger.

Alternatively. RSS Formula 3 V6, it has a very similar power/weight ratio to the IndyPro PM-18 in iRacing.
