AMG ONE [Official] Mercedes-AMG Project ONE

i mean someone can make a comparison run on Assetto Corsa and while the result have to be taken with a grain of salt it will give a ballpark estimate

I've studied neither enough to come to any kind of conclusion, but it strikes me that rates at which the suspension load up (or unload) are perhaps sufficiently different that the Valkyrie ends up with a sub optimal set up, versus what they might do at Silverstone, or any other Grade 1 track.

For sure, being designed for smooth GP circuits, it'd be out of its element at Nordschleife. And how do you even go about doing a track specific set up on a car that uses active hydraulic suspension? In theory this should make it able to handle any kind of track. But as we all know, the development of Valkyrie was one big headache for everyone involved, and so I question whether those predictive-based active body control systems work well enough to cope with such an extreme and long track.

AFAIK this is completely different approach vs AMG One suspension, which, once put into track mode, acts as a conventional setup, albeit one that separates roll from vertical load.

You'd first need a car mod that doesn't have garbage tier fantasy physics. There's two Valkyrie mods I know of. One has an empty weight of 900 kg and the other is 1,030 kg. If they got such a basic stat wrong, then imagine what the suspension kinematics look like.

Well if GT7 was anything to go by, using an off-set to Sport Auto times based on my lap-times, the Valkyrie would be about 6 mins.

Here is the required number of grains of salt...

….or maybe you are just a much better driver than Gebhart…?

I didn't say who's favour the offset was in!

Come on. That's very obviously an AI render.

There's a Silver one driving around in Monte Carlo right now. Could be Toto's but I'm too lazy to find out right now.

Absolutely gorgeous in Silver, suits the car very well.

Silver for the Silver Arrow

When your hypercar is that insipid that you rely on AI to make it look good.

We know it's a render, because that's not how the car actually looks.

Notice the completely different wing, the slot in the body for the wing, different engine bay intakes on the top, the wider scoop, the extra fin, different shut lines for the doors and other panels, and the non-sculpted filler caps.
