This is a flat-average estimate. It does not account for the car getting faster as fuel burns off, pit-lane time loss, tyre wear or a safety car. Always check your fuel display in the race.

What SimRacing Planner PRO adds

⛽

Optimal fuel load

🌧️

Rain strategy support

Model wet-weather scenarios with different tyre compounds and lap time deltas. See exactly when switching to slicks or wets pays off.

📊

Strategy comparison charts

Interactive charts compare 1-stop vs 2-stop vs 3-stop strategies side by side. Pick the fastest option before the race starts, not during it.

Fuel calculator — FAQ

How do I calculate fuel for an Assetto Corsa race?

Divide the race length by your average lap time and round down, then add one lap, because you finish the lap you are on when the clock runs out. Multiply those laps by your fuel per lap and add at least one extra lap as a safety margin. The free calculator above does it for you. SimRacing Planner PRO goes further, adding fuel mass effect and pit-lane loss time.

What is fuel mass effect in sim racing?

As fuel burns off your car gets lighter and progressively faster each lap. Planner PRO accounts for this in per-stint lap time calculations, so strategy reflects real race pace — not a flat average.

How many pit stops should I make?

It depends on race length, fuel tank size, tyre wear and pit-lane loss time. Planner PRO calculates every possible pit strategy automatically and shows you a comparison chart so you can pick the fastest option.

Does it support rain strategy?

Yes. You can model wet-weather scenarios with different tyre compounds and adjusted lap time estimates to find the optimal moment to change tyres.
