How to Add Custom Cars to Your Assetto Corsa Server

Tired of the same old grid? The heart of Assetto Corsa's longevity is its incredible modding community, which has produced a near-endless garage of custom cars. From legendary classics to modern hypercars and wild custom creations, you can add almost any vehicle imaginable to your server.
 

Best of all, your server's Web Manager makes the process incredibly simple. This guide will walk you through finding, downloading, and uploading any custom car, allowing you to build the perfect entry list for your next race day.

Part 1: Finding & Downloading Quality Mods

The first step in building your dream garage is finding the right cars. The Assetto Corsa modding community is vast, with thousands of cars available across several trusted websites. We recommend sticking to these well-known sites to ensure you're downloading safe and well-made content:

• https://www.assettoworld.com/
• https://assettocorsamods.io/
• https://www.assettohub.com/
• https://assettocorsa.club/

Tips for Choosing a Good Mod

Before you download, keep these tips in mind:

• Check Ratings & Comments: See what other drivers are saying. This is the best way to know if a mod is high-quality and works as expected.
• Look for Dependencies: Many car mods require you to have specific official DLCs (like the Porsche Packs) or other mods like the Custom Shaders Patch (CSP) to work correctly. The mod's description page will always list these requirements.

In this guide, we'll use Assetto World as an example, but you can browse and download the modded car(s) you wish to add.

Part 2: Preparing the Car Files

1. Access the Web Manager and log in if you haven't done so. If you're not familiar with this process yet, we encourage you to follow our guide on how to connect to your server.

   

    

2. Navigate to Content → Cars & Setups.

   

    

3. Drag and drop the modded car folder into the area, or you can choose the folder through the file selector.
   Once you’ve added all your desired modded cars, click on the Upload Car(s) button.

   

   

4. When setting up a race, you will find the modded cars listed and ready for selection.

And that's it! Your custom car is now on the grid, ready for you and your friends to race.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

• The car doesn't appear in the Entry List after uploading. This can happen if the wrong folder was uploaded. Make sure you are uploading the main car folder and not a folder that contains it.
• Players (including you) can't join the server with the custom car. For anyone to drive a modded car, they must also have the exact same mod files installed locally in their own Assetto Corsa game client.
• The car has visual glitches, missing sounds, or errors. This often means the mod requires a dependency you or the server might be missing, most commonly the Custom Shaders Patch (CSP) and Sol. Ensure these are installed and up to date.

Conclusion

Your server's garage is now officially open for business! You've learned how to add any custom car you can find, transforming you from a server host into a true race organizer. You can now craft unique, thematic events—a '90s JDM track day, a classic Le Mans revival, or a modern hypercar showdown. The only limit is your imagination.

The key to a popular server is fresh and exciting content, and you now have the skill to provide it. Keep exploring the modding community and building your ultimate car collection.
