I started driving the Lamborghini a few days ago and I have to agree. It is completely balanced, stable, fast and easy to drive. I would say it's on par with the Ferrari. And to top it of not many people use it on lfm rookies so I feel a bit more unique racing it
You dont see any AMGs anywhere except races where is Custom BOP. Good car but without custom bop and some tracks not the best. Thats why I think BMW deserved that spot :) @@5tr4le
@@kylemanning193 I agree, just excellent on kerbs, very stable, very good straight line speed and just no bad tracks, where the BMW is hit or miss on some tracks. My list would go: 1. Audi 2. Lambo 3. McLaren 4. AMG 5. Ferrari

Best thing I did being an average racer such as yourself was jumped in the Audi few months ago before the last update. I’m no good at setups but learning that car gave me so much confidence and trust me it pays off. Even won my first league race in it! Currently playing with the Macca and already want to jump back in the Audi, it’s so good and glad it’s still competitive after the latest update. Try something out of the comfort zone ✌️
Totally agree. Find the car that suits you and you enjoy and just focus on getting better in it. If you’re an average driver, it won’t make much difference. By the way, I am slower in v1,9 than before at almost every track. Do you guys find the same?
@@OldManOnTrak everyone has their own driving styles which makes it so interesting. What works for one may not work for another, started off in the old Porsche then the Lexus which were both recommended by friends and thought I was doing ok but not great. Wasn’t until I hopped in the Audi I started to gain real confidence, tricky at first but in the end it paid off.. 1.9 absolutely sucks! Dunno what itis but it just doesn’t feel right one minute you have grip the next you don’t it’s really strange and hard to get consistency 🫠
Naw, I find I'm much better and consistent on certain cars and just snail poop on other cars. You gotta find the cars that make you fast. Some for me are like the Chinese finger puzzle. I pull and pull, but it won't come off!!! @_@ The list is pretty good. As an unskilled newb, I'd go with Ferrari because it is the easiest car, but I'd rather go with Lamb because I think I'll learn more from that wild horse.
@@snippidippi I agree that the 992 is in a bad spot currently, and yes, on some tracks it is around a second slower. Worst probably being Suzuka and Donny, rest of the tracks it's maybe around half a second slower if even that and on some even quickest, like i.e. Laguna Seca. But I'm just saying, if you're literal _seconds_ (plural) off the time, that's more than just the car not being capable imo
Wow. I changed from a sweet sounding Porsche 2023, where I was finishing only in the top 5. Just now with the Huracan Evo 2, I won the first 2 races so far by several seconds to second. One in a Competition Server night race in Catalunya and the other in a Nürburgring lobby race.. Thanks Jardier.. you're the best.
I'm still going to main the 992. Turns out I'm faster on it because over 600+ hours on Dirt Rally 2.0 made me feel really comfortable with entry oversteer lol
For me personally, the Ferrari 296 GT3 is my favourite and best performing car. I can get into the rly competitive times at most of the tracks in ACC, but yes, top 3-4 tenths is rly hard to achieve lol. At Bathurst, I went from a 2:03.1 in the Mclaren 720s to a 2:01.1 in the Ferrari 296 within a few weeks after the update, and still getting faster lol. But also, the car is OP with a fast setup that suits my personally driving style, and is rly stable. If u have experience already and pretty fast, and don’t want any tail happiness with no nonsense to deal with while driving, the 296 is perfect to be consistently fast with👌
My Top 5: 5. Porsche 911 II GT3R 4. Porsche 992 GT3R 3. Porsche 992 GT3R 2. Porsche 992 GT3R 1. Porsche 992 GT3R idk, I don't drive any of the other cars
This game has a huge learning curve. I started with time 2:06 at Nurburgring. I thought it was decent. Then I was stuck at 2:02 for a long time. Now I'm at low 1:58's. This improvement took months. I still don't understand how people can do 1:52's. I only have the PS4 version though and it doesn't get updated anymore from 1.7.02. Maybe that is a factor? One thing that helped was that I had the force feedback at 100%. When I reduced it to 80% my lap times went down immediately. Still a lot to learn, thanks for these videos.
I know this exact feeling, got stuck trying to get below 2min for a while then even longer to get below 1:58 and 1:55 What helped me the most: steer as little as possible, tyre scrubbing not only kills your tyres on the long run via overheating / graining / excessive wear, but it also creates drag and thus lose speed, also, try releasing brakes earlier, it sounds counterintuitive cause you're most likely running a bit wide when hard on the brakes and moving your braking point forward as a result, try braking at the same point but releasing the brakes way earlier than you would, car will turn in better
@@AllardWolff I bought a gaming PC and that 60 FPS versus 30 FPS on PS4 is a gigantic difference. Sure the game is playable on PS4 and identical gameplay. But the smoothness and graphics are so nice on the PC. Still stuck at 1:58 though. LOL. I have no idea how people can get to low 1:50. It doesn't make any sense. PS: I got my best time with Bentley. Weird.
I love the Audi. I didn't know that it is so good. I just picked it 3 years ago when I started to play ACC just because I like the exterior. But after many hours of driving it I started to learning it and get used to it and now I can't drive without it. With this car I do my best laps and I really like the handling. I really appreciate that this car is on top 3 in your list Jardier 💪💪👌
Thanks for saying that the M4 is literally sh*t on some tracks.... :) I've only driven that car for the last two years, but at the moment I'm not racing on certain tracks (for example Silverstone, Barcelona, 2 of my 5 favorite tracks in ACC), because it's not that it's not fun to drive, it's literally like a pain in the *ss...
@@Maniac5455 good on some tracks: Nurburgring, Kyalami, Imola, Donington... Since the 1.9.5 update i'm a little bit faster at Imola and Kyalami than with the 1.8 version, my lap times are roughly the same at Nurburgring, but I'm almost 1 second slower at Silverstone and Barcelona... I know an alien guy who only raced with the BMW until the 1.8 version, but now he's 7 tenths (!!!) faster with the Ferrari 296 than with the M4 at Silverstone, which is a bad joke.
@@lowfastracing I'm new to the game, so I don't have a full understanding of which cars are fast and what not. The bmw is the only car I've felt comfortable with so far. I've tried the mclaren 720s, the aston and the porsche.
5. BMW M4 GT3 2021 4. Ferrari 296 2023 3. Audi R8 Evo II GT3 2022 2. Mclaren 720 S EVO 2023 1. Lamborghini Huracan EVO II 2023 Where my Porsche fans at 😭
In 1.8 the Audi Evo was an absolute monster that really wasn't difficult to drive. I found the most important thing was damping.. when you figure out the damping it was super stable. Then everything changed in with 1.9 and it became super difficult to drive and set up! I will agree with the BMW. The BMW has great acceleration and is great at Donnington and Snetterton but struggles at others. The McLaren Evo is weird! It's the car Ive driven the most and what makes it weird is the ability to run all kinds of different set ups and be fast. You can run max damping in the rear or you can run Motec damping. Where the McLaren struggles is acceleration and it excels in cornering speed! I'm using the McLaren in LFM for my first League experience! Starting off in Rookie and using the McLaren has been a good experience! Great on tracks like Hungaroring, Valencia, Donnington, decent at the nurburgring, but really struggles at Kyalami and Snetterton. Yes you can get down into the 1:46.3-4 at Snetterton but the McLaren simply doesn't have the ability to make the passes on the str8's and you tend to be too far back entering the corners to make a move on cars like the BMW or Ferrari!. I haven't spent much time in the Lambo but the few times I did drive it, I must say its super fun and easy to drive! I hopped in it at Bathurst and was doing 2:022:01 with the stock aggressive set up... Which is very quick for me there. Even in the McLaren I need to be on my game to get down into the 2:01's and that's with many set up changes. So far in LFM I've won 50% of my races with the McLaren in the rookie sprint series. 7 wins out of 14 races. With a couple 2nd and a 3rd place! Something else I noticed was, in the American SRO eSports series the top guys were driving cars no one is using in the world or European series! I was really surprised to see so many people using the Porches and people using the Honda. I think the Honda is better then people give it credit for but at the same time it drives way different then it did in 1.8. Imo 1.8 the original couple updates were the best. I feel like the feedback in 1.9.5 is a little dumbed down. Especially when you're riding over curbs
Lfm is the ultimte dice roll for what kind of experience you'll have on a per race basis. I lost 1.0SR in 2 races as I moved up a split from elo improvement so went from being ranked 6th in the lobby to 32 of 32. I found my pace and was closer to 24th in quali and race pace, but people defend too hard and drive too aggressively at the back, least in the sub 1500 elo group. Makes progressing difficult and my SR reflects it from people rear ending me, spinning into my line and just generally causing incidents that I simply can't avoid. Due to that fact my Elo has ranged from 1500 all the way down to 600 and my SR seems to gradually incerase and then take absolute battering. Problem is I like to race with my mates, so I don't want my elo to slip too far from them, but then you come across absolute jokers who ruin it through abition and stupidity being well ahead of their own capabilities.
The strange thing about Mercedes AMG is that it's super difficult in the game BUT it's the easiest car to drive in real life, everyone says it, it's the most used for gentleman racing and that's why it's the car with most presence in all GT3 grids...
AMG isn’t that hard as long as your setup is correct same for the Lexus. Lexus is really stable with just default setup. And one of the fastest cars on Monza.
I used to have fun with the Vantage V8 but know slowly transitioning to the Huracan Evo 2, after i drove it for the 1st time i just fell in love with it
I drove the Honda for over a year, but after the update I had to switch! The Honda was too slow everywhere! But because none of the setup worked any more, the change wasn't that difficult for me! I then switched to the Ferrari 296 and it was a good decision so far!
With the new Lamborghini I broke my record on Monza with a 1.47.9, I was happy, and with the AMG got a 1.48.035 still need to work on my setup, bc fast drivers drove a 1.45 on Monza still I don’t know how they do that
ACC version 1.9 on release was great. However the interim updates to the current version has made it bad, feels like ACC is back to version 1.8. Car feels muted and have low traction. Back to extreme braking and over scrubbing the front tyres in an attempt to get improved lap time.
I completely agree this time! Also, well explained what you experience, feel and see around you. The Porsche is not in this list, although in the right hands, it's still a very fast car. For me, not top 5. Comparing to real life, it's a bit weird that the AMG is not higher on the lists (and on performance). Thanks for the content!
So sad they’ve killed the Aston. When it’s still racing. And in British GT and IMSA it’s doing well. Interesting to that there hasn’t been any vids from Aris in say 3 months.
Every since I started using the Lambos. Im almost guaranteed top5s and 10s no matter the track. Easy to setup and is predictable. I struggle finding alien pace with it but thats a skill issue😂
Thanks for the walkthrough! I don't have a list yet since I just got into the game. Been driving a few GT cars on Assetto Corsa, just for fun, without wear and tear, so this is a whole new experience! I'm going to try you list and see where I'll go. For now I'm only going career mode.
i think the mclaren is good but on kyalami its literally so slow i brake as far as i can and still got divebombed. i had pole somehow but in the race dropped to p6
Wouldnt be better if Kunos forget the official BoP and create his own? Cause as you said, on a track one car is flying, and is 1s of the pace on another. That's stupid. We should all be able to drive not equally but almost every (current) car of the official championship without having to switch for a certain track.
I said several times the best thing to do would be this: 1) one game mode - real life bop real life data and such 2) second game mode - "online" version where bop is as close a possible but keeping the car characteristics so you have whole field within lets say 3 tenths
I think the BoP in ACC is currently broken. AMG, BMW and Audi are currently the most competitive cars in the GT World Challenge Europe, with Ferrari and Porsche more like fighting their way up the ladder, whereas McLaren and Lambo are to be found somewhere... In the USA-branch the Porsche is performing a lot better, in IMSA I think, too. In the DTM it looks different again, maybe because the BoP is as far as I know different than on GT World Challenge, I think manufacturers are more seeing eye to eye overall here. I don't know which data Kunos uses but right now it feels like they are throwing dices. And like you mentioned, the Porsche for example is hard to drive and sometimes even almost undrivable, Suzuka is a nightmare in that car. ACC is overall a mess in my opinion right now. The tyre model is weird, as tyres tend to go to zero performance after like 15 to 20 Minutes, no matter if you pushed hard or if you tried to be gentle on them. I think something is way off since 1.9. There are things that got improved like the way the chassis works, you can set a car up sharply with razor edge cornering or more forgiving and curb-swallowing with a softer suspension without loosing to much time. But I have to say overall ACC feels weird and not as relatable in terms of driving as it used to, other sims providing GT3s have gained a lot on ACC, if not even being ahead right now. Like the Porsche, drive it on ANY other sim, it feels like a charm to drive. Yes, it's still a bit loosey goosey on the rear, like a Porsche is said to be, but it still can build quite some grip and it doesn't drift like hell or hurl through chicanes like a piece of butter in a hot pan, having you literally pray for a good exit without flying offtrack. But I have to say, the cars you mentioned, they are fine, they are good to drive, actually I would put AMG into the Top 5 and even on one of the higher ranks. But that's just me still feeling like an ACC novice - easy to jump into the sim, but really hard to master... I started to get the hang of it before 1.9 rolled out (which I was really looking forward to), but right now I feel like I don't get it. In other sims like rFactor 2 or iRacing I'm constantly improving my skills, but in ACC it's more like two steps forward and three or four steps backward. A shame, cause... yeah, beautiful and immersive sim... Sorry that I went offtopic there, but I think these aspects are connected to how a list like your's comes together. I'm overall fine with it by the way, I think you're right with calling the Lambo the best car overall in terms of consistency.
See the mclaren 720s evo is the only car I can get on with I can lap very well and consistently. I think it just suits a certain driving style. I love it
Solid list overall. Only differences I would have is to put the Ferrari overall higher than the McLaren and AMG ahead of BMW. Otherwise agree with the rest.
Been using the Lambo & Porsche for LFM sprints this season. Thought I would try Audi for next season. Haven't driven it since 1.9 update & holy cow what have they done to it?!! Will keep going with it but it might be a painful season. Thanks for the video Jards
Ferrari 296. While most people bin it in L1 infront of you, you can safely navigate your responsive and easy to drive 296 through the carnage, earning you P9 before the fourth corner.
BMW M4 is a great car and my first choice, even on the tracks where it isn't that fast. It it easy to drive and the top speed advantage on most tracks is insane and sometimes race deciding. I love it.
It’s really a shame that I’m getting tired of ACC. Time to start playing iRacing more. Love ACC but just not enough content anymore or as you said competitive cars
I'm pretty new to this game, I got it when it came out and it was too glitchy so I gave up on it after only about 10 hours. Fast forward 3+ years later and I'm back in it now. Just got started (restarted) again, and I've been trying to find which car to use for now until I get better. So I picked Misano for now and starting to test out different cars all with the aggressive preset setup so that it's all apples-to-apples. I haven't tried the Lambo yet but I'll have to give it a shot after seeing this. I definitely agree with you about the Ferrari, but I found the exact opposite with the Audi. I felt the Audi was the easiest to drive so far, and it was also one of the fastest for me. Surprisingly so far I set my fastest time with the AMG, but it was hard to drive. Similarly with the Porsche...I made a couple of decent laps but spun out on most laps lol So unless the Lambo proves to be as good as you say, I may stick with the Audi or the Ferrari until I get better and more consistent.
I need your shirt its awesome!! The car that I personally drive the best is the Porshe. Wow, im driving one of the most difficult cars on ACC. Maybe me coming from F1 im used to sliding around. I just started playing ACC, As im coming from F1 23. Two very different styles of racing.
Cool video. I also tried so many cars. Pre 1.9 I started with Aston, M4, MC720 then Honda.. When I developed myself for a certain level 1.9 came and I slowed down with a sec per lap. Therfore I tried the new cars especially Porsche, than the new 720 which is good but so boring.. then M4 again and AMG. To be honest for me AMG is the most enjoyable car, best looking etc, but since a month I switched to Lambo evo 2. Not so cool as Mercedes, but I ve already could improve my best times in many tracks with it. For me it is not so easy to setup this car, its sliding a lot, I rather avoid the curbes and there is one track I dont like to race with it. It is Monza
I thought for sure the Mercedes would be number 1. I almost exclusively drive the Mclaren though, I find it to be the most fun to drive and easiest to handle, but then that has a lot to do with my setup, i guess.
Definitely agree with the 296 being easy for us midfield drivers. Especially when it first came out, but now it feels slightly more balanced. Quite surprised by where you put the Audi because I literally never see it on track anymore in our league races, but yeah probably different for you esports level guys. Also very surprised by you saying the lambo is the most consistent across tracks, cos I main that and recently I've been noticing the exact opposite. Again though, comes down to different skill levels I'm sure
I haven't driven the Lambo much so can't say much about it myself. I did however look at the split 1 for the LFM 100.000 Suzuka race which is coming up today. 7 out of the top 10 are driving the Lambo. It gets more diluted the more you scroll down. Same goes for most split 1 races on LFM currently.
@@IBassGaming tbf suzuka is one of the tracks where it felt competitive for me as well but like I said, split 1 aliens and esports drivers probably have very different opinions to us mere mortals :)
Im currently using the maclaren in my career i was using the skyline but it felt as tho everyone was faster and i took alot to get somewhere so decided to restart my career with McLaren instead and i prefer it for my driving style, as an f1 player i was always looking to get acc once i finally got my rig and fanatic wheel and ill never look back its just so much more enjoyable to play over f1
I just got my first wheel a couple of weeks ago and I'm mainly playing ACC, just felt in love with thr BMW M4. I feel very safe with it and im trying to learn the basics with it. Probably I'll give the Ferrari a try to see how it feels like. Thanks for the video.
I got the best pace with BMW M4 on most tracks. I drove the BMW for months. When I try other cars, my laptimes are crap, so short after, i switch to bmw again😂
Aston martin around nearly all track apart from SPA you can jump in a drive and match the Mclaren and BMW for pace in a league race is just SPA is so broken at the moment it not even fun I will 1.5 seconds of my Mclaren times around there on less fuel
I started with BMW M4, now I am on Ferrari. My friend said I should try Lambo, but it seems like heavier version of Ferrari. Seems I need also try out Mclaren. Couldn't decide the main car yet... It's rather hard. By now I've driven 90 LFM races (214h in ACC). Any advice appretiated, thanks.
Im a rookie playing the nsx, i tried the lambo on monza after driving it a lot with the nsx it was so haaard to adapt! I feel like brakes are totally different, maybe its the setup but i had to brake waaaay earlier otherwise i would miss the turn
Ok, your vids are always great and I love to follow your channel! I play with Xbox series X and I love to race with the AMG cause I feel like it's the one that forgives mistakes better than the others and I love the handling and the sound. And also, I noticed that I prefer cars with front engine... 😅
I'd say as a complete noob I'd pretty much agree with this list. That being said I get more joy out of driving the McLaren than I do the Lambo. Yes the latter is the better car but I also find it kind of boring to drive which, ironically, is also a testament to how good the car is.
Hey Jardier, I just wanted to ask whether you feel that the Porsche 911ii GT3R is still a good choice to go for. I used to be a V8 Vantage fan, but have decided to change, however I am now not sure whether to stick with my choice. Thanks!
Would you agree with my list? What would you change?
What made you put BMW in front of AMG? For me that car is a beast in race pace, most consistent car currently.
I started driving the Lamborghini a few days ago and I have to agree. It is completely balanced, stable, fast and easy to drive. I would say it's on par with the Ferrari. And to top it of not many people use it on lfm rookies so I feel a bit more unique racing it

Yeah, FFB at 100% causes a lot of clipping, meaning you just lose FFB. Always have it towards 50-60% to have the best feel
I know this exact feeling, got stuck trying to get below 2min for a while then even longer to get below 1:58 and 1:55
What helped me the most: steer as little as possible, tyre scrubbing not only kills your tyres on the long run via overheating / graining / excessive wear, but it also creates drag and thus lose speed, also, try releasing brakes earlier, it sounds counterintuitive cause you're most likely running a bit wide when hard on the brakes and moving your braking point forward as a result, try braking at the same point but releasing the brakes way earlier than you would, car will turn in better
@@AllardWolff I bought a gaming PC and that 60 FPS versus 30 FPS on PS4 is a gigantic difference. Sure the game is playable on PS4 and identical gameplay. But the smoothness and graphics are so nice on the PC. Still stuck at 1:58 though. LOL. I have no idea how people can get to low 1:50. It doesn't make any sense. PS: I got my best time with Bentley. Weird.
I love the Audi. I didn't know that it is so good. I just picked it 3 years ago when I started to play ACC just because I like the exterior. But after many hours of driving it I started to learning it and get used to it and now I can't drive without it. With this car I do my best laps and I really like the handling. I really appreciate that this car is on top 3 in your list Jardier 💪💪👌
Thanks for saying that the M4 is literally sh*t on some tracks.... :) I've only driven that car for the last two years, but at the moment I'm not racing on certain tracks (for example Silverstone, Barcelona, 2 of my 5 favorite tracks in ACC), because it's not that it's not fun to drive, it's literally like a pain in the *ss...
Well its sad true :D
It's a shame to hear this because I recently just fell in love with the bmw m4 gt3
@@Maniac5455 good on some tracks: Nurburgring, Kyalami, Imola, Donington... Since the 1.9.5 update i'm a little bit faster at Imola and Kyalami than with the 1.8 version, my lap times are roughly the same at Nurburgring, but I'm almost 1 second slower at Silverstone and Barcelona...
I know an alien guy who only raced with the BMW until the 1.8 version, but now he's 7 tenths (!!!) faster with the Ferrari 296 than with the M4 at Silverstone, which is a bad joke.
@@lowfastracing I'm new to the game, so I don't have a full understanding of which cars are fast and what not. The bmw is the only car I've felt comfortable with so far. I've tried the mclaren 720s, the aston and the porsche.
5. BMW M4 GT3 2021

Where my Porsche fans at 😭
*Cries in rear deg*
In 1.8 the Audi Evo was an absolute monster that really wasn't difficult to drive. I found the most important thing was damping.. when you figure out the damping it was super stable.
Then everything changed in with 1.9 and it became super difficult to drive and set up!
I will agree with the BMW. The BMW has great acceleration and is great at Donnington and Snetterton but struggles at others.
The McLaren Evo is weird! It's the car Ive driven the most and what makes it weird is the ability to run all kinds of different set ups and be fast. You can run max damping in the rear or you can run Motec damping.
Where the McLaren struggles is acceleration and it excels in cornering speed!
I'm using the McLaren in LFM for my first League experience!
Starting off in Rookie and using the McLaren has been a good experience! Great on tracks like Hungaroring, Valencia, Donnington, decent at the nurburgring, but really struggles at Kyalami and Snetterton.
Yes you can get down into the 1:46.3-4 at Snetterton but the McLaren simply doesn't have the ability to make the passes on the str8's and you tend to be too far back entering the corners to make a move on cars like the BMW or Ferrari!.
I haven't spent much time in the Lambo but the few times I did drive it, I must say its super fun and easy to drive! I hopped in it at Bathurst and was doing 2:02 2:01 with the stock aggressive set up... Which is very quick for me there. Even in the McLaren I need to be on my game to get down into the 2:01's and that's with many set up changes.
So far in LFM I've won 50% of my races with the McLaren in the rookie sprint series. 7 wins out of 14 races. With a couple 2nd and a 3rd place!
Something else I noticed was, in the American SRO eSports series the top guys were driving cars no one is using in the world or European series!
I was really surprised to see so many people using the Porches and people using the Honda.
I think the Honda is better then people give it credit for but at the same time it drives way different then it did in 1.8.
Imo 1.8 the original couple updates were the best. I feel like the feedback in 1.9.5 is a little dumbed down. Especially when you're riding over curbs
Lfm is the ultimte dice roll for what kind of experience you'll have on a per race basis. I lost 1.0SR in 2 races as I moved up a split from elo improvement so went from being ranked 6th in the lobby to 32 of 32. I found my pace and was closer to 24th in quali and race pace, but people defend too hard and drive too aggressively at the back, least in the sub 1500 elo group. Makes progressing difficult and my SR reflects it from people rear ending me, spinning into my line and just generally causing incidents that I simply can't avoid. Due to that fact my Elo has ranged from 1500 all the way down to 600 and my SR seems to gradually incerase and then take absolute battering. Problem is I like to race with my mates, so I don't want my elo to slip too far from them, but then you come across absolute jokers who ruin it through abition and stupidity being well ahead of their own capabilities.
The strange thing about Mercedes AMG is that it's super difficult in the game BUT it's the easiest car to drive in real life, everyone says it, it's the most used for gentleman racing and that's why it's the car with most presence in all GT3 grids...
Yeah plus its also one of the most successful cars (with audi) in last years of GTWC IRL ... still struggles in ACC
AMG isn’t that hard as long as your setup is correct same for the Lexus. Lexus is really stable with just default setup. And one of the fastest cars on Monza.
I used to have fun with the Vantage V8 but know slowly transitioning to the Huracan Evo 2, after i drove it for the 1st time i just fell in love with it
as a Porsche fan this hurts :(
:((((
I get more satisfaction getting the very best out of a less competitive car than driving the car everyone else drives
it makes sense dlc cars are at the top thats how games work
dlc is like $5 smh
I drove the Honda for over a year, but after the update I had to switch!
The Honda was too slow everywhere!
But because none of the setup worked any more, the change wasn't that difficult for me!
I then switched to the Ferrari 296 and it was a good decision so far!
Amazing list mate, I think Audi has one of the strongest qualy bop, but in the race, it struggles a lot a lot on tyres and balance of the car.
With the new Lamborghini I broke my record on Monza with a 1.47.9, I was happy, and with the AMG got a 1.48.035 still need to work on my setup, bc fast drivers drove a 1.45 on Monza still I don’t know how they do that
ACC version 1.9 on release was great. However the interim updates to the current version has made it bad, feels like ACC is back to version 1.8.
Car feels muted and have low traction. Back to extreme braking and over scrubbing the front tyres in an attempt to get improved lap time.
I completely agree this time! Also, well explained what you experience, feel and see around you. The Porsche is not in this list, although in the right hands, it's still a very fast car. For me, not top 5. Comparing to real life, it's a bit weird that the AMG is not higher on the lists (and on performance).
Thanks for the content!
So sad they’ve killed the Aston. When it’s still racing. And in British GT and IMSA it’s doing well. Interesting to that there hasn’t been any vids from Aris in say 3 months.
The lambo feels AMAZING, it was the first car I picked up and I'm so glad I did.
dramatic intro with sitting down, reminds me of "son, we need to have 'the talk'". And then tells me the best acc cars
haha:D
Aston Martin is still my favorite car.
Great video. Would be nice to see more of the cars and the sounds also 👍
the BMW M4 is insane, but on silverstone I struggle going into luffield and I just lose so much traction and get a load of under steer
AMG is still in my heart.
of course you would say this Toto
@@Qwnntm😂👌🏼😜
What i dont understand in Acc is the Broken Setups 😒 i drive 2:17 on Spa but i dont find the last sec in the setup 🤔
Every since I started using the Lambos. Im almost guaranteed top5s and 10s no matter the track. Easy to setup and is predictable. I struggle finding alien pace with it but thats a skill issue😂
Thanks for the walkthrough! I don't have a list yet since I just got into the game. Been driving a few GT cars on Assetto Corsa, just for fun, without wear and tear, so this is a whole new experience!
I'm going to try you list and see where I'll go. For now I'm only going career mode.
Top 5? The only 5 cars with competitive BOP, all other cars are destroyed
Im a huge fan of the Aston Martin Vantage V8. Front engine, low tyre wear, great handling
After years of being on Xbox I’m finally on pc and can’t wait to hop in. Hopefully the Mclaren evo feels just as good on pc as it did on Xbox.
Feels even better welcome to the pc world
i think the mclaren is good but on kyalami its literally so slow i brake as far as i can and still got divebombed. i had pole somehow but in the race dropped to p6
Wouldnt be better if Kunos forget the official BoP and create his own? Cause as you said, on a track one car is flying, and is 1s of the pace on another. That's stupid. We should all be able to drive not equally but almost every (current) car of the official championship without having to switch for a certain track.
I said several times the best thing to do would be this:
1) one game mode - real life bop real life data and such
2) second game mode - "online" version where bop is as close a possible but keeping the car characteristics so you have whole field within lets say 3 tenths
I hope Kunos Balances all cars once they lose the "official" GT3 licence. By that time, they'll have moved on to AC2 and have stopped ACC support.
Lambo hehe, good choise Jardier, realistic choise. For me, most fun car is dis moment (Mclaren), i have the best fellings 🤠
I think the BoP in ACC is currently broken.
AMG, BMW and Audi are currently the most competitive cars in the GT World Challenge Europe, with Ferrari and Porsche more like fighting their way up the ladder, whereas McLaren and Lambo are to be found somewhere... In the USA-branch the Porsche is performing a lot better, in IMSA I think, too.
In the DTM it looks different again, maybe because the BoP is as far as I know different than on GT World Challenge, I think manufacturers are more seeing eye to eye overall here.
I don't know which data Kunos uses but right now it feels like they are throwing dices. And like you mentioned, the Porsche for example is hard to drive and sometimes even almost undrivable, Suzuka is a nightmare in that car.
ACC is overall a mess in my opinion right now. The tyre model is weird, as tyres tend to go to zero performance after like 15 to 20 Minutes, no matter if you pushed hard or if you tried to be gentle on them. I think something is way off since 1.9. There are things that got improved like the way the chassis works, you can set a car up sharply with razor edge cornering or more forgiving and curb-swallowing with a softer suspension without loosing to much time. But I have to say overall ACC feels weird and not as relatable in terms of driving as it used to, other sims providing GT3s have gained a lot on ACC, if not even being ahead right now. Like the Porsche, drive it on ANY other sim, it feels like a charm to drive. Yes, it's still a bit loosey goosey on the rear, like a Porsche is said to be, but it still can build quite some grip and it doesn't drift like hell or hurl through chicanes like a piece of butter in a hot pan, having you literally pray for a good exit without flying offtrack.
But I have to say, the cars you mentioned, they are fine, they are good to drive, actually I would put AMG into the Top 5 and even on one of the higher ranks. But that's just me still feeling like an ACC novice - easy to jump into the sim, but really hard to master... I started to get the hang of it before 1.9 rolled out (which I was really looking forward to), but right now I feel like I don't get it. In other sims like rFactor 2 or iRacing I'm constantly improving my skills, but in ACC it's more like two steps forward and three or four steps backward. A shame, cause... yeah, beautiful and immersive sim...
Sorry that I went offtopic there, but I think these aspects are connected to how a list like your's comes together. I'm overall fine with it by the way, I think you're right with calling the Lambo the best car overall in terms of consistency.
Thank you for the video Jardier, enjoyed it.
296 good sounding? Are you serious??? :))))
See the mclaren 720s evo is the only car I can get on with I can lap very well and consistently. I think it just suits a certain driving style. I love it
Where's the Jaguar? :(
Mostly expected list but some surprises and good arguments, I liked the video! And please Kunos buff the Nissan ❤😅
Solid list overall.
Only differences I would have is to put the Ferrari overall higher than the McLaren and AMG ahead of BMW.
Otherwise agree with the rest.
Definitely agree on the amg being ahead of the m4.
Been using the Lambo & Porsche for LFM sprints this season. Thought I would try Audi for next season. Haven't driven it since 1.9 update & holy cow what have they done to it?!! Will keep going with it but it might be a painful season. Thanks for the video Jards
Now we wait for full grids of lambo.. cheers jards! 😅
🤣
50% and rising...
I was legit expecting the AMG in 1st. Well colour me surprised.
Thanks man! I was waiting for this video long time. 200+ hours but still not sure what to main.
i still prefer the old 720S over the Evo because its more stable and still handles great in 1.9 but of course its not the fastest car anymore.
So the Audi is great if you start from P5 to whizz through to P1. Can you recommend a car that’s great from P20 on the grid?! 😁
Ferrari 296. While most people bin it in L1 infront of you, you can safely navigate your responsive and easy to drive 296 through the carnage, earning you P9 before the fourth corner.
I started with porsche, but went nissan in the career mode. Went back to the hurican, but now enjoying the 488 Ferrari.
Was waiting for this vid😊😊
hope its good! :)
have hardly played acc since the 1.9 update didnt like the new tyre model or physics intresting list though and grreat explantion on your pick
BMW M4 is a great car and my first choice, even on the tracks where it isn't that fast.
It it easy to drive and the top speed advantage on most tracks is insane and sometimes race deciding. I love it.
I bought the dlc and tried lambo cause of this vid. I'm not used to running such a low wing after driving AMG but it's fun!
720s evo is rlly good, grip is insane
It’s really a shame that I’m getting tired of ACC. Time to start playing iRacing more. Love ACC but just not enough content anymore or as you said competitive cars
I'm pretty new to this game, I got it when it came out and it was too glitchy so I gave up on it after only about 10 hours. Fast forward 3+ years later and I'm back in it now. Just got started (restarted) again, and I've been trying to find which car to use for now until I get better. So I picked Misano for now and starting to test out different cars all with the aggressive preset setup so that it's all apples-to-apples. I haven't tried the Lambo yet but I'll have to give it a shot after seeing this. I definitely agree with you about the Ferrari, but I found the exact opposite with the Audi. I felt the Audi was the easiest to drive so far, and it was also one of the fastest for me. Surprisingly so far I set my fastest time with the AMG, but it was hard to drive. Similarly with the Porsche...I made a couple of decent laps but spun out on most laps lol So unless the Lambo proves to be as good as you say, I may stick with the Audi or the Ferrari until I get better and more consistent.
I need your shirt its awesome!! The car that I personally drive the best is the Porshe. Wow, im driving one of the most difficult cars on ACC. Maybe me coming from F1 im used to sliding around. I just started playing ACC, As im coming from F1 23. Two very different styles of racing.
Cool video.
I also tried so many cars. Pre 1.9 I started with Aston, M4, MC720 then Honda.. When I developed myself for a certain level 1.9 came and I slowed down with a sec per lap. Therfore I tried the new cars especially Porsche, than the new 720 which is good but so boring.. then M4 again and AMG. To be honest for me AMG is the most enjoyable car, best looking etc, but since a month I switched to Lambo evo 2. Not so cool as Mercedes, but I ve already could improve my best times in many tracks with it. For me it is not so easy to setup this car, its sliding a lot, I rather avoid the curbes and there is one track I dont like to race with it. It is Monza
Year after year you put so much Work in your Passion. Thank so much for your Effort and greets from Austria ☺
🤩🤩🤩
I dont enjoy how Lamborghini feels on the wheel but i agree with ur list but my favorite is the 296 just its slow on the straight
I thought for sure the Mercedes would be number 1. I almost exclusively drive the Mclaren though, I find it to be the most fun to drive and easiest to handle, but then that has a lot to do with my setup, i guess.
I have been driving AMG for a while,time to switch to Lambo/Audi for a change
Definitely agree with the 296 being easy for us midfield drivers. Especially when it first came out, but now it feels slightly more balanced. Quite surprised by where you put the Audi because I literally never see it on track anymore in our league races, but yeah probably different for you esports level guys. Also very surprised by you saying the lambo is the most consistent across tracks, cos I main that and recently I've been noticing the exact opposite. Again though, comes down to different skill levels I'm sure
I haven't driven the Lambo much so can't say much about it myself. I did however look at the split 1 for the LFM 100.000 Suzuka race which is coming up today. 7 out of the top 10 are driving the Lambo. It gets more diluted the more you scroll down. Same goes for most split 1 races on LFM currently.
@@IBassGaming tbf suzuka is one of the tracks where it felt competitive for me as well but like I said, split 1 aliens and esports drivers probably have very different opinions to us mere mortals :)
Now that console has the same BOP as PC this video helps me alot to decide what car to use.
So that's what the update was for? Got a 2.7 GB update yesterday on my Series S and had no idea what if was for
Im currently using the maclaren in my career i was using the skyline but it felt as tho everyone was faster and i took alot to get somewhere so decided to restart my career with McLaren instead and i prefer it for my driving style, as an f1 player i was always looking to get acc once i finally got my rig and fanatic wheel and ill never look back its just so much more enjoyable to play over f1
I just got my first wheel a couple of weeks ago and I'm mainly playing ACC, just felt in love with thr BMW M4. I feel very safe with it and im trying to learn the basics with it.
Probably I'll give the Ferrari a try to see how it feels like.
Thanks for the video.
I got the best pace with BMW M4 on most tracks. I drove the BMW for months. When I try other cars, my laptimes are crap, so short after, i switch to bmw again😂
Very surprised the Merc didn’t make the list.
My favo is Mercedes AMG GT3 (2020) especially after the 1.9 update (Ps5) For me, I can handle it good and really love the sound!!
The new update last week nerfed the AMG so hard 😭
Aston martin around nearly all track apart from SPA you can jump in a drive and match the Mclaren and BMW for pace in a league race is just SPA is so broken at the moment it not even fun I will 1.5 seconds of my Mclaren times around there on less fuel
I started with BMW M4, now I am on Ferrari. My friend said I should try Lambo, but it seems like heavier version of Ferrari. Seems I need also try out Mclaren. Couldn't decide the main car yet... It's rather hard. By now I've driven 90 LFM races (214h in ACC). Any advice appretiated, thanks.
Im a rookie playing the nsx, i tried the lambo on monza after driving it a lot with the nsx it was so haaard to adapt! I feel like brakes are totally different, maybe its the setup but i had to brake waaaay earlier otherwise i would miss the turn
very helpful, thanks!
I love these videos as have just started out on ACC and it's good to know about these things.........the settings are the hard part lol 😂
The settings can be insane mad scientist min max. Version 1.9 might have addressed some of them, but introduced new ones too... Doh!
Dos anyone know if the community of acc in LATAM exists? Or at least that if i buy the game i'll be able to play multiplayer?
Ok, your vids are always great and I love to follow your channel! I play with Xbox series X and I love to race with the AMG cause I feel like it's the one that forgives mistakes better than the others and I love the handling and the sound. And also, I noticed that I prefer cars with front engine... 😅
Greetings, for me it would be the Lexus for some reason I am fast in it, but in second place I have the Lamborghini, by the way I play on Xbox.
I'd say as a complete noob I'd pretty much agree with this list. That being said I get more joy out of driving the McLaren than I do the Lambo. Yes the latter is the better car but I also find it kind of boring to drive which, ironically, is also a testament to how good the car is.
Is the chapter segmentation an inside joke or something? The Huracan's labelled as Urus🤣
I’m a rookie and have started using the Audi R8 lms rather than the evo and am wondering if it is still a good choice even in comparison to the evo?
What about thee Porsche? Never actually tried it, although it looks so endearing & tiny little beast.
Even those their old cars but I still run the lexus Bentley Nissan gt-r and the BMW m6.
I reverse BMW's positions with Mclaren, I completely agree
So do you still recomend the amg gt3?
What would be a good car for me to start with i would want somthing relatively competitive and good on fuel
Lambo most consistent because Mabix is driving it ;) i hope you win with him some time in lfm pro soon!
We need an updated top 5 for beginners... I still suck.
As a rookie, i really like the Ferrari 😊
Hey Jardier, I just wanted to ask whether you feel that the Porsche 911ii GT3R is still a good choice to go for. I used to be a V8 Vantage fan, but have decided to change, however I am now not sure whether to stick with my choice. Thanks!
I only drive the 911. The 991 and now the 992 (DLC). All of my best times are set using the Porsche, nothing else quite suits my driving style.
we need a new list :D
Curitiba pretty cool track.
1- Porsche 992 GT3R
2- Porsche 992 GT3 Cup
3- Porsche 911 II GT3R
4- Porsche 911 II GT3 Cup
5- Porsche 911 GT3 R
Good or not,i have that special love to Porsche and it's best for me 🥰🥰
My favorite car is...any ferrari. Not quite fast enough for it to matter what I pick 😂
What do you think about the porsche 992 gt3, is it good?
