Here's one that's currently on Discord that updates every 2 weeks.
Gamemode: hotlap Track: Kyalami Conditions: 10pm, optimum, default clear (both ambient and track temp should be 23°C when you’re into the session) Cars: any GT3 car Trophy times: Platinum – 1:39.700 Gold – 1:40.800 Silver – 1:42.000 Bronze – 1:43.500
I did a 39.678 in the AMG. There's a 38 in it, or at least low 39, but quit after hitting Platinum.
Hot Stint could be a good one to do, too.

I've had a few to drink but I hopped on and did a 1:40.548 which is a PB but I forgot to take a pic because of said drinks. Will take another shot at it tomorrow and feel like a 39 is definitely possible. Took a pic of a 40.9 though.

Nice lap, Rib Shack..especially with a BAC.lol
Hammer, despite its numerous flaws, the core game is very very good. I'll be doing another race soon as soon as they instill a mandatory safety rating for the Pro class. As much as I love PC2, ACC just feels better all around and it doesn't have a bad track.

I don't have GT4, that's one of the dlc isn't it? I was going to do something in that this morning but it took me to the store and they want £17.99 for it!! That seems a bit steep for a single dlc to me. Never paid that sort of price for any dlc before.

They all have very distinct characteristics, as do all the cars in ACC IMO. But, I only got it bc I have mainly been on ACC. Edit: $25 for the season pass, that's what I did. There is a British pack coming next. www.gtplanet.net/acc-gt4-pack-dlc-console-20200930/

I enjoy it up to a point but do run into problems pretty much every time I race it for one reason or another. I also really like the ratings and its the only game that I actually take any notice of them. Even after all this time I still have no idea what the ratings are in pcars but the ACC ratings give every session something to aim for. However, that being said there are still some issues with them and i'm sick and tied of having my ratings effected as a result of being taken out by either other humans or AI. I keep wondering whether to just restart from scratch.. I had my CN and CC around the 85 mark quite quickly but its gradually dropped and now sits at around 81/69.

I think they have far more important things to look at before mandatory ratings... Update the damn special events for one, we've had the same ones for so long now, hardly special any more. Just another sign of their not giving a rats arse about supporting the console side of the game. FoV settings need sorting and fix the damn rear mirrors as well, they've had almost six months to do these things.

Put in a decent amount of time into it tonight but I was only able to go a tenth faster. Putting all my purple sectors together has around a 39.9 but I just couldn't put it all together so I'm at a 40.443.

I keep wondering whether to just restart from scratch.. I had my CN and CC around the 85 mark quite quickly but its gradually dropped and now sits at around 81/69. Agree. Overall I really like the way it does stats. In single player, you can turn them off while tuning/learning a new track. Mine will fall pretty quickly sometimes. Putting together a 20 minute hot stint (what I use for testing) can really increase both of them a lot. My CN got in the 90s and dropped to mid 80s, and my CC was high 80s and dropped to low 70s. Safety can take a bit to get up there. Against AI, it is very sensitive. If the AI isn't fast enough, your car isn't on edge enough for your stats to climb. If the AI is too fast, it's easy to get rear ended when you don't take a corner almost perfectly. I can't say the Aggression really makes much of a difference with AI, but the other number does a lot.

No FOV is really frustrating. I haven't noticed a problem with mirrors, except there are none in Helmet cam. The lack of special events sucks. They added the Audi event, but that's it and it has been months. On the DLC, I'm a sucker for all that stuff. As far as DLC goes, the cars are every bit as good as the core game cars, just a different class obviously.

Try the fuel mix on Normal and do some steady laps to clean up the line. You'll find you'll hit a similar time. Once you're really consistent with that, turn it to Rich. Turning on only the CC visual rating also can really help. Biggest thing is work on not turning the wheel as little as possible, make the weight transfer turn the car and then trail the brakes off. Search YouTube for ACC Kylami 1:39, there are some good videos that can help with the line.

Beat my AMG time with the 911, 39.639. I think the 911 may be a faster car on this track, or maybe most technical tracks. The AMG is a handful. Stock tune and just added downforce and adjusted ABS. The fastest map in the 911 is 8, different than all the other cars where it is 1.

You haven't noticed a problem with the mirrors if you race at night tine once it gets to a point where they are pretty useless as they just turn black and you can't see a damn thing. I've posted an image that shows this in the chat group as I can't be bothered to upload to an image site to able to post it here.

You're not seeing that? I honestly havent noticed any issue, but I use virtual mirror. Try that if you haven't
