Go on then!
Do you think you’d run these in AMS2 when it comes out?

Denis Betty · Mar 25, 2020

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.

Golden Rule

Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Excellent.

I'm not planning to be staff for AMS2, but if I was, I'd run H shifter Caterhams.
There is a slightly more powerful model in AC, by the same modder - @Ben O'Bro. Maybe we should give that one a go sometime?

Edit: I'll give you a RHD model.

Hiya Raresche, if by 'what happened' you mean 'why lhd', there's two reasons:

1. The vast majority of cars we drive in-game are lhd, so I like to stay in the same 'awereness' zone, for example, tonight's Audi race is lhd, Sunday's GT3 is lhd so I'd feel odd going to rhd on Monday. But then, I often feel 'odd'

Also, for chilling out I enjoy the Dirt Rally series and most of those are lhd too.

2. I worked/lived abroad for 15+ yrs and lhd became as natural as rhd, I actually prefer it - my gear changes are faster with my right arm/hand (when my H shifter is repaired/replaced

).

If that's not what you meant, colour me stupid

that's right what I was asking. I see. cool. I was wondering why an Englishman will not use rhd, but I now know.
