Yes you are right. In the last "S" after the Döttinger Höhe i touched the curb as usually and my car stops immediatly. I thing the car is to low.

Wasnt there a problem with SLS, too?

In previous versions it did. I raised the car a bit and it was

.
I didn't test the "new" SLS.

I might drive the corvette again, or the GTR.

I uploaded my corvette setup from last time here:

hi all, i represent a russian speak community of rF2 racers. last time at our forum we have discussed an opportunity to take part in this great event and it looks like there are few of our guys who will be pleasant to join you if you won't mind. as a newbie here i wanted to ask some questions:
- what is the max quantity of race participants allowed? In the list it's 49. Is it right?
- page with "racing rules" stays unavailable for me even after logging in. What shall I do to read the rules? The same story with 'password' page...

Thanks in advance

First of all welcome to Racedepartment.com.
- The maximum quantity isn't fixed. We had no issues on the server or client side with 44 cars last time and the track can handle up to 100 cars, so we most likely won't limit the sign ups as we want to explore the limits of the game and the server.
- RD had a "licensed model" in the past where you could apply for a free racing license, but that is going to change. You can no longer apply for licenses, but if one of your community members has one, he can join the race. If you don't have a license you have to upgrade to a premium membership http://www.racedepartment.com/account/upgrades, which starts at 2.50€ for 1 Month and goes up to 1 Year for 20€. Keep in mind, that drivers have to use real names on the server and in the forum. For simple testing you can join the server right now as it will stay public until race day.

Understood. Thanx for quick and full reply.

I might have to sign out by the sounds of it. I think it all depends on if I can get 64bit rfactor to work

Have you tried a fresh clean install? That should then be automatically 64-Bit and then just download the needed content.

Richard Hill · Feb 21, 2015

I have tried loads of times now there is a thread on the main rfactor thread bout it

Yup, sorry just saw it. Otherwise you have to run on 32Bit and really low gfx settings

Frederic Schornstein · Feb 21, 2015

It seems I have to reupload the whole mod due to the drag changes (damn slow upload), but we should have the update going later today or early tomorrow.

@Frederic Schornstein Can I sign back up for this please

Dennis · Feb 21, 2015

IMPORTANT:
The Apex Modding cars will receive a 50kg weight penalty before Qualy to ensure BOP between the Apex and ISI cars. If you choose to drive an Apex Modding car, please let us know or at least join 10min before Qualy, so we can add the penalty.

I've been practicing with the GT3 Porsche and think that will be my car of choice for the race thanks.

I think you have to do something with the bmw wtcc. Everytime when i touch the grass or a curb, my car stops or get airborne. Even when i raise the car over 7cm!

Is it possible to check it?

Stefan Woudenberg · Feb 22, 2015

Finally the GTR has some speed.

I can have a look at it, but it could be a bit close to the race.
