This guide has 6 chapters, explaining multiple facets to get started with this game:

1. Before you begin (content, simulation, steering wheel & pc-hardware)
2. Initial start-up (graphics, controls, view settings)
3. Achieving the ratings (track rating, safety rating)
4. Getting set up (fuel, tire pressures, traction control, buying setups)
5. Racing etiquette (free practice, qualifying, turn 1, lap 1, duelling, blue flags, finishing)
6. Communities (join them!)

Feel free to comment if anything is missing!

This review talks about reducing fuel levels and maybe using the aggressive set up!!!
What?
This is supposed to be for dummies. Beginners right?
You cant change fuel or set up as a beginner!!!
Useless information!!

[Billy Shears]

Why is it everytime I click on a server I'm asked for Spectator Password and in brackets (Spectator Password not required)

Nothing on the part that turns people away from the game,the Pitstops,how to assign controls to use the interface and how to use the interface.
That's the biggest confusion of the game.
Why I never play ACC,the pitstop part.

@Caméléon have you ever raced or driven a real car? Honest question. If you have, you'll know what an actual heap of shit iracing is. ACC isn't amazing, to be honest, no game is realistic, but iracing is fucking money pit to disappointment.
