Going Nowhere Fast In Assetto Corsa (17ed, 2020-10-20): Race Driving On A Simulator
This book is a comprehensive handbook for race driving on Kunos Simulazioni's Assetto Corsa simulator. It is not a gaming guide. What you will find here are technical topics covering graphics card optimisations, force feedback customisation, simulator configuration, race car dynamics, race car components, car set-up, driving techniques, racing rules, race strategies, race tactics, psychology of race driving, and handling guides for each car type. I also present the cornering lines for all laser-scanned tracks. I describe each track, corner-by-corner and bump-by-bump, with cockpit view screenshots.
