When Coach Dave Academy develops setups for a new car, we collect all the lap time data. All this data is entered into a spreadsheet, and we are then able to view car performance on a macro scale. By comparing the lap times of different cars across multiple tracks, we can identify the top performers.
Of the fifteen tracks in ACC, the Porsche, using a Coach Dave Academy setup, records the fastest lap time at seven of those tracks.
In addition to having the fastest time at seven tracks, the Porsche also records the second-fastest time at four tracks and the third-fastest time at one. That means that the Porsche is fast enough for a podium at 80% of tracks.
If you are looking for the ultimate edge, it’s time to tame the beast that is the Porsche 911 II GT3 R.
Looking for a more stable platform than the Porsche, but one that still can compete at the front of the pack? The Mercedes AMG GT3 is the second fastest GT3 car in ACC.
Using the same data-driven process as we did with the Porsche, the AMG, running the Coach Dave Academy setup, records the fastest lap at five tracks.
In addition to the five fastest track time, the AMG holds the second-fastest lap at two tracks, and the third-fastest at three. If you drive the AMG to its limit, you are looking at a podium at 67% of tracks.
The Lamborghini holds the fastest lap for one track, but it consistently lays down the second and third-fastest laps around the rest.
With six second-fastest laps and an additional five third-fastest laps, the Lamborghini is an incredibly consistent performer.
You may not see a lot of race wins driving the Lamborghini on its edge, but it is still a car that is capable of delivering podiums at the same rate as the Porsche.
Developed for drivers of all skill levels, improve your speed and consistency with the best baseline setups for ACC. Run these car setups out the box, or use them as a starting point to improve upon. Coach Dave Academy setups are created by the best sim racers and engineers in the business and then back tested by real racing drivers.
"Amazingly in just 4 laps with the Spa race setup, I was able to shave a full second off my personal best time and dip into the teens for the 1st time."
