Hi Parr, i have moved your post to this section so you can look around here for all kinds of mods and tracks.
Popular mods are the Megane Trophy,HistoriX,PCC, pfffff i can go on for ages

Just check Club rFactor for the mods used on our servers and hop in :thumb:
More mods can be found here and mostly with some comments to fill your mind on what one to use .rFactor Mods - RaceDepartment Forums

Welcome to the world of rfactor I am sure you will have alot of fun with it

Best place to go for Mods and Track would be here. They have more than any other game out there and the quality just seems to get better and better.

rFactor Central - Community Driven Sim Racing Resource for rFactor by ISI | rFactor Car mods, rFactor Tracks, Car Setups, rFactor Screenshots

Also go here for lots of info about the game and wheel settings etc if you cant find the answer at RaceDepartment.

Thankyou a great help

Do you know where i can Get The BTCC Mod for Rfactor from as i cant find it on their

Patrick van Driel · Aug 21, 2008

The BTCC mod is not a legal conversion so not supported by RFC and Racedepartment.

Matthew Parr · Aug 21, 2008

well, you can download whatever you like... but am guessing you'll not find a link posted here and you obv won't see it run as an event

I'm tempted to buy R factor but im not sure whether i would play it due to Gtr evolution

Matthew Parr · Aug 24, 2008

Ye i havent got Gtr evolution YET but i bougt rfactor because of its ood reputation! and i think its brilliant tbh.Its well worth it.

man - i was in the same quandry but with the evo delays i figured why not...

it's really lovely... personally i think it's more hardcore than race 07... and with all the mods there's always new joy to discover.... taken part in 2 rd events - porsches last week and f1 this evening... immense goodness - and since our rF events are way more intermittent than race 07 you'll totally have time to play both... do iiiiiit!

Yeah if he only has simracing experience from Race07 he is seriously going to be facing reality

Race07 is forgiving, and easy, comparing it to any other sim.
Only thing to say is, dont let it put ya down, theres realfeel plugin for good ffb, theres huge amount of tracks and mods, and those can be varied in quality, some are very good, some arent too much.. in time you will find the mods you enjoy the most, learn more, get better car control.. and jump in for the next step of simracing pretty much. So be patient with the game, it WILL reward you greatly in the end.
