rF2 BTCC @ Donington Park - Fri 23 Jun 2023

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

We have been requested some racing at Donington for this week, so here we are! With the heat we are experiencing in Europe currently it feels like 3 short races are better to do than 1 or 2 longer ones, so get ready for some sprint racing!

im guessing the amd driver issue still hasnt been fixed crashes at 100% track loading

 

[Jimlaad43]

Are we doing any funky tyre rules or success ballast or reverse grids or anything to make the three races different?

Nopes, this time we're just straight up racing with the only gimmick being the hybrid-thingy

All in. Including @Colin Peach with an asterix.

But you are correct. There's no fix to the AMD issue.

I'm not getting involved with this as I'm not able to be there. Roy's choice, but Edward is staff
Sounds like a fight!

Complicated (but actually not complicated at all) explanation shown here, on Monday's race with the superior "laps not time" included too

Hi Dennis, great combo, cant join you yet, looking at the rFactor 2 Store i have a lot of catching up to do.

It's lovely do see you back Craig! (even though I was busy with the rally games back when you ran rF2 races!).
Spend some time with the rF2 store, so you don't end up buying loads of the same content numerous times. There's some funky bundles there.

If you don't want to spend much money, you only need to own one car in a race to race (as long as you own the track). So if you hate all BTCC cars except the Opel, then you can buy just that and race against the cars you don't own
Just be aware, if you then end up buying the whole BTCC pack, then you won't get any price off for owning content already.
