Quick question; does the sim have any time or speed penalties for all those driving aids?

 

[jimortality]

I had a quick go earlier and I know graphics aren't everything but this is very poor.

Nope ... (I'm using them too )

BTW: The real cars have TC and ABS.

 

[Chris James]

I'd like to try this car and track before I decide to sign up, but I can't find them in the downloads section. Does anyone have a link to where these can be downloaded? Thanks.

 

[Matej Lakota]

I downloaded track via server, no probs at all, so I am sure, you can get car also there.

It's not showing the join button. I'm using the minimalist UI.

Is your rF2 up to date? Build 880?

I can't help you with the minimalist UI. I don't use it.

 

[Francisco C Barros]

Yes i am using build 880. It only shows the join button only for a few servers. I'll see if i can fix it somehow

What lap times are you doing? I want to have a target so I can practice. I'm about 10 seconds faster than the AI at 120%, so I can't use the AI.

Discussing lap times is frowned upon. It sometimes discourages some from participating because they think they are to slow.

I haven't done any laps yetbut have driven the car before and Brands before so will prob only do 60 mins practice.
As Matt said we keep lap times quiet to have a more welcoming inclusive feel to club racing.
Normally however I get it to my limit, arrive at the track and find I'm 3-4 sec out then find another 2sec.

Oh ok. I'll wait and see. We need more people for the race. 2 is not enough.

10 secs quicker that the hardest AI setting?

 

[Francisco C Barros]

10 secs quicker that the hardest AI setting?

Yes. The AI are really slow at Brands Hatch. On other tracks the AI is better.
