Full weekend, 25% race length.

Can't keep my eyes taped open any longer than that.

I believe mine is full weekend. 3 practices, 3 round knock-out qualifying, then 50% race.
races usually between 45-55 minutes.

FP1 I normally do the track acclimatization test and tire wear test.
FP2 I do the Qualify practice run.
FP3 I normally don't do too much on, sometimes just skip it.

If I wasn't able to get optimal, I would try again in another practice session.

plans change for wet weather, although I still do the tests in the rain to get rain practice in.

50% race is a nice distance for me. the game has a mid-race save feature, haven't tested it out to see what happens if you save and exit the game then back in to resume.

Thanks for that feedback. Been running 30/30/30 practice, short qual, and 25% here. I'd like to run longer races, but I feel like after doing the practice programs to earn the upgrade points, and then qual, then the race it's taking so much time. I guess that mid-race save feature is a good idea. I forget that's there. Although even after running the 25% race, my finger is numb from working the gas trigger lol

If you really love racing sims you owe it to yourself to invest in a wheel and wheel stand / play seat. Less fatigue.

Got my new PC card installed last night. Been playing all morning up until 5 minutes ago.

One word = AMAZING!

Agreed, I love it so much that Assetto Corsa can wait for a price cut. [emoji2]

I've started a career with full weekends and full races. I can pretty much save anywhere which makes it even more amazing on the pc.

Did they remove the user stats section? Didn't this track user stats previously? Starts, wins, podiums, clean laps, passes, g-forces, etc, etc, etc
