UNBOXING: AC Legends 1974 Porsche RSR 3.0. Wow!

Retro racing sims are great, but for me the era from mid-seventies onwards have me hooked. Prior to that the cars were glorious but to be honest I would rather fling a Porsche 962 around a track than a 917, I prefer the 935 to the 911. But as sim racer bred on Grand Prix Legends, the equivalent era in tintops is also fascinating, for me I was particularly keen on the 1974 Porsche Carrera RSR 3.0, the 1974 Ford Capri RS3100 and the 1975 BMW CSL 3.5 IMSA in AC Legends 3.0 released on Sunday by Bazza & Crew for FREE! Standing Ovation! To start with, I took the Porsche to old Silverstone (no chicanes) where last they ran it in that configuration was 1974, and with reference to the 1974 Tourist Trophy at the venue featuring several of these cars to get a benchmark time. After months of modern driving virtual GT3s on various sims, returning to the seventies with steel brakes and infinite braking distances, big power on tap and you have real beasts to tame without the TC and ABS etc that makes modern cars so good to drive. A real challenge, albeit mentally exhausting. If this era GT cars are checkers (or draughts) then, relatively, AC Legends is equivalent to chess. I did an 8 lap race with 20 AI set at 100% strength and 75% aggression and share my thoughts. My best lap was 1: 37.331. Capri at Monza in next video followed by BMW at Kyalami!
