[Assetto Corsa Competizione] Sprinting It Down at Valencia - McLaren 720s, GT3 Sprint Series, Silver

40 hours of driving at Valencia culminating in this race. The G29 pedals and wheel are entirely to blame for the fact that I'm still so far off pace, of course.
Mods used:
• RHMACC (Real Head Motion)

How do you think the 720S holds up compared to the 296?

[@Adm22]

I don't think there's a massive pace difference between the two on most tracks. As far as I know, the 296 is far easier to drive generally, but also more dull, akin to the BMW M4. The McLaren seems to have better straight line speed but it's a little more tricky in slow corners and braking zones. So I would say it's slightly easier to get up to speed in the 296, but personally, it also feels less rewarding for that reason. I think unless you're racing at the highest levels, it's best to play whatever you find the most fun.

Thanks for your opinion. Yeah, I like both cars a lot but I feel like everyone is jumping into the Porsche or the 296 and I just rather stick with the McClaren but I didn't want to be way off pace. You do have a good point, the difference in overall speed won't be that much and most likely only the best drivers can actually take advantage of the small difference and I am definitely not a top driver....😂

@@zigzagbruno1486 The new Porsche is definitely faster than most other cars as far as I've heard, but I don't know if it's harder to handle. The McLaren is good enough on most tracks to be competitive with others, and apparently its EVO version is also coming to the game, so that one might be even better hopefully 😃
