How to unlock the Track King achievement in Assetto Corsa - Definitive Guide

The races in Special Events all follow broadly the same format. There's much more variety than in Career mode - you'll drive different cars and tracks. The aim is the same though, you have to win all of them with the difficulty set to Alien in the pre-race difficulty settings. 
Below is a list of all the events you have to complete for this trophy, as well as a link to a YouTube video showing you a setup for the car, and in some cases other tactics to use, which I'll cover myself after the table:

"Alien" is a popular term in sim-racing for the very fastest drivers. Literally, if they're that fast they must be an alien, because they can't be human. The Assetto Corsa AI may seem on this level once you first start, but there are several factors which affect these races which you should bear in mind.
  • As ever, turn off mechanical damage, tyre wear and fuel use. The races are too short for fuel to be a factor, and since you'll be running on the softest tyres available you don't want to overheat them.
  • Whether you're using a controller or wheel, whether you're running clean or using every trick possible, look into a setup for your car. The stock setups in AC can be very unsuited to this format, where you have to drive as quickly as possible for just a few laps. The very first race at Monza in the Tatuus for instance needs a setup to make use of slipstream on the long straights, and even then requires a committed entry through every corner. At the very least, always make sure you're using the sofest tyres, the lowest fuel, the highest engine mode and a suitable gearing ratio.
  • The AI will behave differently in every attempt you make at an individual race. If you want to win the races legitimately, sometimes the way the AI starts and enters the first corner will determine your chances for winning the race. For example, in the GTs against Godzilla event, if the McLaren passes the Lamborghini for first into the first corner, you're not catching it. Don't be afraid (and be prepared) to restart races until you have a favourable situation. You will also have to be aware of where the AI cars are when/if you're alongside them in corners, as they often don't back out of side-by-side running when they should. If you're overtaking someone, always make sure you're fully clear of them before moving back to the racing line. 
  • As noted in ExistentialSolid's guides, there is a handy trick involving the pits which can really help you at the start. If you pause the game as soon as the lights turn green at the start of the race, you will be able to select Pits from the pause menu. This puts you in your pitbox which is always at the end of the pitlane, with the race still underway. If you select Drive quickly from here you will re-enter the race as normal, but from the end of the pitlane. This doesn't work on every track in the game, but it provides a substantial advantage at these tracks: Mugello, Silverstone, Nurburgring GP, Spa, Barcelona, Zandvoort, and to an extent Brands Hatch and Vallelunga. In many cases you can get an automatic jump to the lead of the race, making it easier to defend for the race rather than push hard trying to make up positions.
  • As also noted in ExistentialSolid's guides, there are times when simply ramming the AI off the road will have to come into play, even for skilled players. There are only penalties in this mode for cutting corners, and there are certain events (those at the Nordschleife apply here) where it can be much easier to target and take out your biggest threats. 
  • As also noted in ExistentialSolid's guides, there are certain corners on tracks where you can cut corners and not receive penalties. If you're really struggling on a track, give their videos a look and see if you can make up some time somewhere.
  • As also noted in ExistentialSolid's guides, if you're really struggling, on certain events it's possible to win purely by disqualifying all the AI cars. If the AI stops moving or runs too slowly for too long they are automatically teleported back to the pits and are out of the race. This means on narrower tracks like Brands Hatch and the Nordschleife you're able to force all of the AI to a dead stop. 
  • Regardless of whether you're trying to complete these events cleanly or using every trick in the book to cut the track or push the AI out of the way, you probably won't complete every event first time. Remember that, stay calm, and never give up.
Once you've golded the last event, this trophy will unlock when you return to the main Special Events menu.

This is the most difficult trophy in the game. Long, hardcore, inadequate when they give you a obviously weaker car or put you in 15th place at the start and ask you to overtake everyone in five laps.
Trick 1. In all races on the Silverseytown circuit (full configuration) it is possible to cut without getting a penalty. At the very beginning of the lap at the first hairpin to the right, you can simply drive along the grass onto the next straight, thus completely cutting off the second slow hairpin.
Trick 2. For example, Monza and the first turn. If you just drive through the first turn in a straight line, you will be given a 25 second penalty, BUT if in the area of ​​the turn you have contact with someone (even lightly), you can cut off with complete impunity. It seems to the game that you were knocked out and you are not cutting on purpose, but the fact that you deliberately hit someone and after the cut ended up in first place is no longer important to the game. I checked it on other routes, the method works.
Unfortunately, even this will not save you from the pain and suffering of racing on other tracks. GT vs Godzilla on the Nordschleife is pure hell. Or the Lotus race at Brands Hutch...
