[Stuart Thomson]

We've had several fantastic events on St Jovite in GTL, Anders, so I suspected it would be immense in the Cats.

After a single lap, I knew I was right

 

[Anders Madsen]

Ive never tried it before, but its a rollercoaster :michaelbanana:

was comming flat out over the hill near pit exit, 2 cars was cuddeling on the other side..... soon it was 3

really have to get line right over the top lol, oh boy its going to be an epic race.

[Ron Attwood]

Had my first laps at St.Jovite, steep learning curve! Hope I don't make too much of a pig's ear of it! See you there. Will the server be up in the meantime? I do like to know there'll be no last minute 'hitches' :eh:

 

[Stuart Thomson]

I can put the server up later tonight, as there's no GTL event tomorrow (they share a server).

 

[Ron Attwood]

Image is too large apparently and I can't find the requirements. Anyway, my WIP Thanks for the template Stuart. :veryhappy:

 

[Gary Lennon]

Just had a runaround to see everythings ok for tomorrow,and after a lap or two it dawned on me i know the track from an old GTL event with little Lotus' i believe?,it really is like an organic progression with the tracks for these events,they just keep getting sweeter and sweeter,i also got a config for my rFactor provided in a thread by our man Ivo Simons as a way to get rid of RealFeel,and still be happy with FFB,since using these new settings ive been merrily going around tracks and instantly hitting or bettering my PB times,and it all just feels much nicer,highly recommend!.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Lenno's sussed me

I'm going through my GTL event locker and finding the good events that we had in the faster TC65 class cars, or the better handling GTC65 cars, and trying those tracks out.

So far, I've found that it pretty much follows that, if you have a good event in the GTL Lotus Cortina, Alfa GTA, Lotus Elan or Renault Alpine, the rFactor Cats will be an equivalent sized hoot round the same place.

I'll obviously mix the Cat tracks up a bit (Eagles Canyon was a success, I think), but if I've put in the hard miles finding out what works and what doesn't in this type of car, I'd be remiss in my Event creation duties not to use that info.
