Pessio Garage Brings Loud and Fast Classics to Assetto Corsa

[@SimRacing604]

“Fast, Loud and [adjective]” seems to be a theme this week. Please send me a thesaurus

[@felixeur1276]

Orgasmic 😉

[@SimRacing604]

@@felixeur1276 😂😂 maybe I’ll save that adjective for a future Twitch channel. Seems more appropriate over there, lol

[@Mojomotdot13]

Scary! 😱

[@legoferrari14]

@@SimRacing604 Have you looked at Nicecuppatea's historic Grand Prix cars yet? He's already made five of the six cars from the 1923 Tours race, his most recent being the V12 Delage 2LCV. There is also a new, relatively contemporaneous for them to race on now; the 1928 Opel Rennbahn, Opel's proving grounds that also served double duty as a racing speedway oval prior to WWII. These near-centennial cars are super fun to drive; very squirrelly even compared to the earliest post-war cars, but still modest enough that they have a satisfying learning curve; unlike the Auto Union type C which can get lairy if you don't gingerly feather the throttle.

The steering box on those old Mustangs was what we called "worm and recirculating mush" (actually worm and recirculating ball) back in the day. The technology was later replaced by rack and pinion "and great rejoicing broke out across the land...." 😁

Thanks for letting us know about some of the smaller, less popular modding teams 👍

[@SimRacing604]

All good! Thanks for watching

[@johnwebb9035]

As a teen and a Allan Moffat fan i had the pleasure of seeing the Coca Cola Mustang and the Cologne Capri race. Then by the end of the 70's had the opportunity to do some minor work to both retired cars. happy days. Great to see sim versions

[@RocketBoom1966]

Mike, the livery used for No.9 Trans Am Mustang became an icon of Australian motorsport. The "Coca-Cola Mustang" as it was known, was driven by Canadian born race driver Allan Moffat (now an Australian) in the Australian Touring Car Championship. I was privileged to see it race when I was a small boy. I was so taken in by it, I became hooked on motorsport. I finally got to meet Allan a few years back and have a signed photo of the car. Now I get to drive it in AC! Thanks again Mike for the great content and bringing it to my attention.

[@davidporeilly1]

Neil we may have been at Warwick Farm the same weekend! I watched it race too while supporting my Uncle Ray Lintott in his GTR XU1

[@RocketBoom1966]

@@davidporeilly1 I never managed to get to Warwick Farm. I think I saw Moffatt's No.9 mustang race at Amaroo or perhaps Oran Park. Ray Lintott, another legend of Aussie motorsport :).

[@volksi04]

Great video Mike. I love how calm your voice is while driving cars that are anything but calm.

[@Boonatix]

Thank you so much Mike I feel honored, you are awesome - keep up the great work!!

[@alessimunic]

All Pessio cars are absolutely amazing. My favorites are the Alfa gtam and especially the Porknose. The update from a few days ago around the new retro Watkins Glen from Sergio Loro is something out of this world.

[@virtualpaddock]

The sound of that Mustang 😍 I really need to get my H-shifter set up again, so I can drive these!

[@Violator26]

I live appr. 20 miles away from Sachsenring and I love how you pronounced it correctly. Kudos! :)

[@PragmaticWisdom]

The #9 Mustang is freakin' gorgeous! It's based off of Allan Moffat's #9 Mustang that he ran for both the 1970 and 1971 Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC). He also ran the same car in 1973, with a different livery.

[@dodge33cymru]

Thanks for giving this guy the shoutout he deserves - as someone into vintage racing, these are the best quality AC paid mods around - they're an absolute bargain for the quality of model, sounds and physics (thanks Abbo90 for the latter) - the Abarths play so nicely in a carset with Pessio's (free) Minis and AD3R's Honda S800. FatAlfie's tracks, like Thomson, are the perfect showcase too, good choice!

[@ztol4_i126]

Ok Mike you ARE the Man! I owned a 1974 Mercury (U,S, Spec) Capri with the German built 2800 V6. Still love and miss that car.

[@matk4731]

The 9 Mustang is Allan Moffat’s Australian Touring Car Championship winning car. (70,71,72)It is quite a legendary car her in Australia. Cool video. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

[@davidporeilly1]

I watched it race live at Warwick Farm, it was other-wordly.

[@matk4731]

@@davidporeilly1 That would of been cool. 👍

[@tradesman1000]

Thanks for bringing our attention to these cars Mike 👍🏻 so many great mods for AC I’m running out of space on my pc 😄

[@counterdebate]

Ahh a ford capri...Memories😍

[@davidporeilly1]

I watched that Coca Cola Allan Moffat Mustang race live at Warwick Farm in about 1971. It was spectacular and dominant. Well done.

[@vatch07075]

Was never a fan of the Capri, but... that... Mustang! Oh lord does that car make some sweet noises. With looks to match. Nice one, Mike.

[@FrancescoHuber]

Great job and I'm a big Pantera, Alfa and Musclecar fan - thanks ;)

[@jcoulter43]

I absolutely love vintage racing! Got to meet Tommy Kendall in his record setting 11 win Trans Am season along with Dorsey Schrader. I'm also a huge late 60's-early 70's Trans Am fan (also got to meet Parnelli Jones at the Ford 100 Anniversary several years ago along with Kendall and Bob Glidden). Would love to see full field of the 70's season with all cars, drivers and liveries and vintage tracks. That would be an instant buy for me! Great video as always Mike. Billy Strange did a great video on this car too. God bless and race on 👍😎

[@SimRacing604]

God bless man, thanks for watching! That’s so cool that you have a connection to cars like this. It was before my time, but the raw power and analog nature of these cars is undeniable!

[@grayfool]

The Abarth is a complete boot. Thanks.

[@EddieOtool]

To me, the 1980s is the era where the cars tried to kill their drivers by sending them a big slap of power right at the end of a neverending "wait for it, wait for it, wait for it" crescendo.

[@BillyStrangeAutoModels]

Thanks for the shout and now I have 2 more cars to take a look at.👍

[@SimRacing604]

My pleasure Billy! If you can tame that Scorpion, you’re a better man than me!!

[@dodge33cymru]

@@SimRacing604 I always thought it was just me with a complete inability to tame that car, I'm so glad to know it's not just me! So much fun trying to survive one lap of a track like Fonteny.

[@tarmacterrorist.thepotato]

Nice one I love these cars!

[@bryandickerson5365]

@Simracing604 A newbie question: If you were driving the real car do you think you’d keep your thumbs on the rim or resort to the “death grip” like the simulated driver? Your grip probably gives a bit more tactile feed-back, right?

[@smoove7932]

How would you compare this to the AC Legends Boss Mustang?

[@isamuu99]

Good vid Mike. You don''t race in VR bro?

[@tiziano316]

i bought this add on car and installed but is not working. Any suggestions?

[@Ravenwood06]

0:58 what is the name of that showroom?

[@wachtourak]

How do the Capri and Mustang compare to the ones from the AC Legends GTR Pack and TA Legends Pack from Bazza (and others) respectively?

[@whysoslow1999]

So much better.

[@DMAX_DIY]

Mike604.. I like your channel because you make mistakes just like the rest of us (Me for sure!) and post them anyway! I'm going to get the 'mustard' for sure as I'm a big "MUSTARD" guy and had a 69 302. As I posted at least 3 vids with some flavor of "Mustard" Yeah. brake is just a 'suggestion' I'll pop over to Billy's deal on this too after I watch you my friend! Is it Mustard, or Musturd? Not sure how to pronounce that! HAHA have a laugh my friend! DMAX

[@SimRacing604]

Haha, thanks pal! Yeah, sometimes you just gotta roll with it! Have fun with the cars D! Put some musturd on it and send it lol

[@danielwolfe4169]

what is the track in the begenning?

[@bobmcl2406]

...and regarding the Fiat, you have now discovered "Porsche Widowmaker disease" aka trailing throttle oversteer. It's all about the engine hanging out behind the rear wheels...

[@wwjnz9263]

You are just over 2 feet from your ultra wide (Sorry... I'm American and I can't guesstimate in metric), and knowing you, that is a mathematically correct FOV. You mean to tell me that you can see that much into the turns? Holy crap! I need to get me an ultra wide! And that Mustard Bull... (Mustang) sounds incredible!
