Every GO setup for Assetto Corsa follows a standard naming convention. Understanding it lets you quickly identify exactly what each file is for.
The naming format
AC setup names follow this structure:
GO [Car] [Class] [Track] [Variant] [Type] [Setup Version]
What each part means
GO identifies this as a GO Setups file.
Car is the car model abbreviation.
Class is the car class. In AC this may be GT3, GT2, or another class depending on the car.
Track is the track abbreviation.
Type indicates whether the setup is for Qualifying (Q) or Race (R).
Variant describes the setup style. Common variants include Esport (maximum performance) and Safe (more forgiving and stable).
Setup Version (e.g. V2) is the revision number. A higher number means a more recent update. Always use the latest version unless you specifically prefer an older one.
Console users
If you are using AC on console, the setup names work the same way. You will need to manually input the values using the Assetto Diff Tool. See the console article in this section for instructions.
