Hungaroring Ultimate Track Guide | GT3 Update + Setup | ACC

[@joelbandera5012]

Hi, I'm new to ACC and came across your channel and you are by far the most detailed narrator of your videos. The track guide is on point so the repeat of the sectors, the slow motions, it's brilliant. Keep up the good work.

[@Zermatt1]

Hey Joel, welcome aboard! Great you found the guide(s) helpful, do jump in the discord if you need any further assistance we have a wealth of knowledge (far more than me). Thanks for the kind words and keep up the hard work on ACC. It's worth it.

@@Zermatt1 Thank you...I have been doing GT Sport on PS4 for about 2 years now and all these world tracks are foreign to me only seen them on TV big F1 fan. I find the ACC hard to navigate and simple things like get someone's ghost and follow to get their lanes I can't find it, they probably don't have it for what I know...so again videos such as yours are extremely helpful. Again will go to that side and find more information.

[@d0pedrag0n]

Been following your guides to learn tracks i'm unfamiliar with over the past couple of weeks...they're absolutley brilliant. They've helped me consistently achieve laptimes i've set as realistic targets for myself. I'm having an absolute blast and following the guides has helped me develop a process to learn the tracks quicker and find time through experimentation as you've suggested in your vids. Still have lots to learn, really enjoying the journey...thanks for all the efforts and hard work ...subbed!

Hey Vinny, thanks for the awesome comment! Keep me posted on your progress, please!

@@Zermatt1 Hi Matt, quick update since my previous message...been spending a couple of hours a day practicing Hungaroring in the 911 GT3. From my initial 1:48s i'm now consistently hitting mid 1:45s and broke into 1:44s today with my best lap so far a 1:44.53. Have been working on my throttle technique today by trying to get on the power earlier and found that really helped reduce laptimes. Just need to keep practicing and committing this technique to muscle memory. Take care and catch up soon!

So much wish I'd watched this a week ago! Great stuff and genuinely very helpful, thank you.

[@Zermatt1]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ConanTheBavarian]

Another stellar guide, immediately found two seconds one more to go and I'm happy. Thank you!

[@Zermatt1]

Glad I could help! That's awesome!

[@JuzMan2008]

Thanks for the track guide. Yours is the best format of track guide I've seen so far where you play each section multiple times and the overhead is great too. I've not been able to do under 1:47 in the McLaren so far so I'll give it another go using your info.

[@Zermatt1]

Thanks for the kind words! Please let me know how you get on, think opening up the steering to straighten exits on this track is the key for me. Lots of run off to take advantage of.

[@JuzMan2008]

@@Zermatt1 Thanks so much for your response. Best I've got down to now is 1:46.1. I've tried your steering idea which really helps. One thing my mind struggles with is letting the car coast around corners (which seems to be crucial for this type of driving) so I'm concentrating on trying to do that now.

[@Zermatt1]

@@JuzMan2008 need to get into the mindset of getting on the power once and once only none of this on/off stabbing the throttle while you wait for the nose to come around. :)

[@JuzMan2008]

@@Zermatt1 I had a couple of league races tonight (30 minutes each) at Hungaroring and finished 15th and 8th. I was able to get into the high 1:45's with race fuel and was really happy with the way I drove. Thanks so much for the words of advice and the video which I watched a few times.

[@jackyharrisracing750]

I just discovered your channel. Very nice work, these guide are really well done with lots of detail a new racer like myself can learn from. Thank you.

[@dirtyjerz32]

Great info and detail here. Thanks!

[@claudioarantes4137]

Hi Buddy! Amazing detailed didactics! I loved it! I have just subscribed! I wonder what your setup was for that lap🤔

[@andreafonso8750]

Another great guide, thank you. I haven´t dominated a league yet but i feel that i can improve much more thanks to you.

[@Zermatt1]

So happy I can help! Let me know how you get on dominating a league from now on!!

[@ChaosBasedForm]

Amazing guide and terrific hotlap 👌

[@IDontTalkToCops]

Brilliant work! Thanks for putting this together. Definitely worth subscribing. Cheers

[@Zermatt1]

Welcome aboard! Glad you liked it! Plenty more to have a look at :)

[@Tobus75]

I love the setup of your lapguide. Still in the 1.47's in the Aston v8 on practice, managed a 1.46.0 on hotlap though. Trying to avoid screeching sound amap and find a smoothness thats still fast. Honestly i'd settle for a consistent 1.45...

[@Zermatt1]

Sounds like a good approach to me, set aside some time to train and actually try different things on track not just lap after lap after lap as there’s no point. Study the guides / other laps and see where the differences are. I’d say almost everyone is too impatient on this game, tries to get on the throttle 50% of the way ans it just loses them time, the car pushes wide and it’s a downhill spiral from there. Much better to be patient, and be hard on the throttle in one movement as you won’t get the scrub on front tires and obviously accelerate faster. Pure speculation as haven’t seen you drive but maybe something to think about, Toby. Let me know how you get on bud.

[@Tobus75]

@@Zermatt1 Well I'm getting frustrated, to be honest. On normal training and with all your tips I managed a 1:46.4 fastest, full on concentrating. That said, almost every lap has a blunder or some out of place movement, ruining the already just only a bit faster lap. I'm almost enraged with myself for not understanding why. I can perfectly be happy with a time within 1-1.5 sec on top of your lapguide, but doing everything "by the book", feeling fast and stable, only to clock a 1:48 makes me want to ragequit at this point :-D. I'd be really happy to train with you sometime, if you'd be interested?

[@Zermatt1]

ah man! that does sound frustrating, happy to, get in touch via the discord (link in most recent videos description) and we can chat further.

[@AdzzVR]

So sometimes if you are mid turn , short shifting will eliminate that unwanted torque so you don’t spin out on corner exit?

[@Zermatt1]

Yes sometimes! Better to be in the gear you want to be in when you exit … before you get on the power 90% of the time however

[@alexk1920]

Hey, I cant thank you enough for the guide! Earned a sub and I hope you make a load more of these guides (Havent checked out your youtube yet!). Question though, im in the Ferrari 488 EVO, and when I try to nail the curb on section two (first one) by downshifting twice, and then hitting the throttle, my ferrari doesnt like to stay on track (it rebels and goes off the edge). Im fairly new to ACC and was wondering if the default aggressive setup just doesnt have enough stick for that, or is it just me?

[@Zermatt1]

Hey Alex - thanks for the sub and comment. We’re on a great growth path right now so welcome to the train. Lots more guides (I’m slowly getting through them) and loads of races in RCI/AOR/ACR top tiers to get stuck into as well. Will have to give me a bit more info I’m afraid, come join the discord and start a discussion with a video clip - there’s a wealth of resources from fast people (faster than me), tuners, top tier strategists abs I’m sure we can answer this together. The Ferrari defaults don’t tend to be that compliant over curbs and that one is a particular big one so depending on the way you’re hitting it it could be a very simple, or not answer!!

[@alexk1920]

@@Zermatt1 Eyo thanks for the invite, I did hop in (Discord name is Abyssious), i'll upload a video of my rusty run in an hour if your still around :D Appreciate the help and community tho!

[@vitiakaniowski]

Hi! Is the Setup available somewhere? It's not on Setsbase, or is it the one from Matt Kennedy there?

[@Zermatt1]

Yes it is that one.

[@RacersWithData]

Hey Matt. Really liking your track guide format. Its been really helpful. A question about the chicane section: did the track limits changed? I remember last time you could really cut the curbs there but in the latest upsate it seems you have to be a bit "safer"

[@Zermatt1]

Hi there. Don't think the track limits have changed in terms of tetting a warning or not. It's very car dependent. In GT4 you can clobber these curbs no worries, and in some GT3 cars you can (Merc Evo for example) but most you can't..

[@RacersWithData]

@@Zermatt1 thanks Matt.. Appreciate it

[@mrj3217]

Where is the set up?

[@Zermatt1]

Ah, apologies, most of these setups are taken down now, game updates, not maintaining them etc. Tough to keep up and provide a quality product at the same time.

[@mrj3217]

@@Zermatt1 trying to find a set up for the McLaren 650s Monza.

[@briang6168]

So you go for a high preload on the dif and this tends to cause oversteer on power exit? But it helps stability on brakes into corner? Great guides.

[@Zermatt1]

Exactly that, all about finding the balance for you and the other aspects of the tune so you aren’t scrubbing the tires too much.

[@shoyopride743]

How much potential do you think the Lexus has on this track in terms of lap time

[@Zermatt1]

So these are pretty warm conditions (above 33c track temp) but the lexus is distinctly mid-pack around here. Cars like the Porsche (obviously), Merc, Ferrari and Audi will be faster, however definitely ahead of the BMW/Mclaren and Nissan. I'd expect to be 2-4 tenths off a ferrari time for example. Hope that answers the question?
