rF2 NASCAR @ Knockhill - Monday 4th September 2023

[Jimlaad43]

Stockcars are absolute beasts. Metal bricks that flop around on road courses and look massively out of place - making them excellent to watch or drive when these Oval monsters are forced to navigate tight chicanes, hills and proper kerbs. As such, is there a better place to test them to the limit than the Touring Car destroyer that is Knockhill? Probably not, so get ready to take off over that chicane and enjoy the ride!

I think Ahvenisto is a mod that exists. Any suggestions of cars to race around there?

 

[Lesley Buurlage]

Sure why not

 

[Jan Larsen]

This sounds like a perfectly matching combo, I'm in

 

[Jimlaad43]

Here's an initial setup. It's a bit bouncy under braking, but it can take a hit or two on the kerbs. Be careful at the chicane though as you can boing off track on landing if you take too much kerb (practice a few laps and you'll understand what I mean)

I hope to work on improving this setup over the week and posting updates every so often.

 

[H_Belane]

ok i'll try that too

 

[H_Belane]

I'd better test what I'm signing up for beforehand. Just did a few laps.
Sorry, but I'm withdrawing. That's too hard for me.

But I'll definitely be there again soon. Just found fun again in rF2.

 

[joecronk]

sign me up please !!

 

[Jimlaad43]

Big tag time. It's a crazy combo, but the racing will be intense and everyone is going to make mistakes, so you'll always catch up again.

[The Almighty Snark]

Sounds fun! Sign me up with a little caveat that I might already be asleep depending a little on the workday

 

[Bob Luneski]

I'll give it a try today and see if I can survive.

 

[max1966i]

I'll give the server a try out...I'm in if I can join.

Thx's for tagging , but I have no time to make this one

 

[Bob Luneski]

I'll give it a shot. Pretty beat up but I do well in the rain (please stay with me ) and this may have similarities...you know driving grip challenged bricks on wheels that turn like battleships with a stuck rudder and stops .... the best way to do that is use the surrounding barriers for help. How could I not attempt this potential opportunity

 

[Jimlaad43]

I had a breakthrough with setups when I noticed that the front end was so bouncy because there was no suspension movement. I have removed the 2.4cm of Bump Rubber by default (why) and it now works. @H_Belane this may have been the issues you were dealing with when you said you didn't like this car. Try the setup below and feel to come along and enjoy this wild ride tonight!

 

[eN1xes]

where the setup goes in rf2?

Yep, we have just noticed this. i am about to restart the server and sort it out. The circuit had a new update on Friday, which was after I created the mod pack for the server. Join the discord and i'll say when its ready
