View Full Version : Fuel calculation in AC appears to be 50% less

I ran the Porsche 911 RSR in AC on a Le Mans mod (racedepartment - "circuit-de-la-sarthe-24-hours-of-lemans") and using base setup it appears that AC estimates ~26L for 5 laps and when I ask the CC it reports 13L. I've done at least 2 laps and also restarted sessions where the fuel estimate options were still valid (~26L for 5 laps). I don't know if it's just this particular car/track combination but unless I'm doing something wrong the values offered buy the CC are incorrect. Anyone got any ideas or suggestions?

You need 3 laps or more if you want correct fuel calculations for laps.

Hi, thanks yes I've seen a reference to 3 laps or more for iRacing as well.

I must be doing something wrong as after 7-8 laps CC still reports 50% of what is required for 911 RSR at Le Mans in AC.
Quick clip of what I mean below, sorry for poor audio, please combine link as I'm not able to add links yet or something..

I tried the Shelby Cobra at another version of Le Mans (Racedepartment - "Le Grand Circuit") from 1967 and after 4-5 laps CC reported 37L for 5 laps when AC reported 47L.
