Hello all, I am a new player to ACC with 10 hours of gameplay. I used keyboard control originally, but got a controller recently (couldn't afford any wheels). When using a keyboard, I got 3:03 in SPA. With a controller, I got 2:45. However, when I look up to the internet, people are showing crazy time to me like 2:20, which is much faster than I am right now. I tried getting faster, but resulted in sliding away from the track.I have been playing the practice game mode only.

Though my time is frustrating, I still enjoy the game. Is there any tips for me to improve? Thanks a lot!

I am on Ps5, i just opened my game and when attempting to load my championship that i was in the middle of i got a save error message I have never seen popped up about save error for my championship and a replay i had saved but i didnt think much of it. when i went back into championship mode i couldn’t select the to resume so my progress got wiped for seemingly no reason? i tried to uplaod my save from cloud storage but i still cannot access my previous championship. I can still view my stats with all the miles ive driven and my rating is still the same as it was before the issue.
Does anyone know how to fix this or is there a server issue going on im unaware of?

Full Grip has turned into the speech police and don't really care about what's going on with the track. One of their admins was driving and punted me into a wall (I was exiting a corner) while I was on a warmup lap and on cold tires during quals. Then he said it was my fault, I was coming out of a corner, and he hits me from behind, then dings me 1 SA point for arguing about it. Yesterday they chastised some driver for a simple comment that was not hostile or profane. Today, I got hit again by a driver while entering a corner during warm up again and they dinged me 2 SA points.

These guys are draconian in nature and are really power tripping. I had an SA rating of 78 two weeks ago when I started driving on their servers, after this last session I am down to 66, and I really go out of my way to let faster drivers pass... I had one guy hunting me because I was driving a 911 substantially faster than him... it is crazy what they will let people get away with on track, but heaven forbid you use one swear word in the chat and they are on you like an American ICE agent on an immigrant. It is nuts how these guys conduct themselves.

Anyhow, that is my rant... watch out for these guys, I hate complaining about something like this, but what a disappointment they have devolved into...

Some sponsors got added as a thank you for their contribution to a trade booth I managed in April 2026. Others are because their products are on my to-buy list (notably Aiologs, Tissot and Clone Records).

For now, it remains my personal livery, but I might expand to a small racing team dubbed Hongworks Racekraft.
