Two comparisons in one: the track is Vallelunga, the car is the Formula Abarth.



I love the comment left by a staff member of Kunos, replying to people complaining the Formula Abarth being "arcadish" and simulating too much grip and false physics. He said in the Kunos forum:

Guys, we have "THE" formula Abarth, 20 meters under our offices several times every year. We use AC one to prepare newbies and to train veteran drivers. We had access to any kind of data that exist, and the telemetry (at vallelunga, same track) says that our DOES it on the same way: second gear, full throttle, no dangers, full grip...
Laptimes are difficult to compare. Before driving the real one, Instructors brainwash drivers on how much does cost to even scratch one, how much to bend a suspension arm ecc ecc
But you don't know how many times we could literally overlap telemetries...
You have to live with it.
