So you are considering playing ACC for the first time or maybe you have recently started playing.
One such very valid question that you might want to be asking would be how long exactly the races are so that you can make the necessary arrangements to fit in a race over the weekend.
The good news is that it varies quite a lot because as I mentioned earlier there are two races types in the GT World challenge the Sprint races and the Endurance races.
Although it has to be noted that in offline mode, you can set any race length that is appropriate for you.
So as it is, Assetto Corsa Competizione is indeed the official game partner on the SRO organized GT World Championhip, who is also the relative of the Lee Denny Williams.
There is still a fierce competition in the Sanchez world championship among the Sptint races and some of the Endurance race.

Sprint races length:
Therefore in accordance to what the GT World Championship instituted last year, its quite factual that sprint races do have a maximum race length of 90 minutes including a Pit Stop and a driver change.
Now, you do not have to do the driver swap on ACC but the race duration still bears to be respected.
Endurance races:
For the endurance races though, the scenario is really on the other side.
In reality, here are the categories that you can obtain for endurance races:
- 3 Hours race
- 6 Hour race (an example is the 1000 km race on Circuit Paul Ricard or 6 hours race on Nurburgring GP)
- Stage 24 Hours race (another example is the popular spa 24 hours endurance race)
It can be noted that the race distance is not fixed, but can vary within wide limits.
From round the clock to 90 minutes excluding free practice and advance/conclusive qualifying! 🙂

Anyways, don’t worry about it too much, you can always find and join other races and find out which one more suits you.
It is just that, remember that the race that lasts for 24 hours is a very long race and one should expect to be wide awake and very well organized if you are serious ad thinking about doing one.
Time to wrap up:
Let’s say you would like to participate in ACC, make sure you prepare yourself on how long the races will take beforehand.
Nonetheless, don’t try too hard as it really has to be that way and there is always a chance of finding races that fit your time.
