R3E R3E Racing Club

[Calvyn White]

Hey guys, what time do you have on this track? Are you UFO:s? Or normal people?

As a rule, it's not good etiquette to discuss or post lap times.
The only thing I can suggest is to have a look at the leaderboard.
But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter how fast or slow you are, it's about having fun in a fair playing environment. Where there are rules to ensure the fun and fair play is for all. The more in the race the more chance of your having a rival as quick as yourself. It's about fun, not so much the competition. The club here at race department is about the fun.
What's normal. Fast or slow we are here for fun. Win or being last doesn't matter having great clean battles and having fun doing it. And of course not quitting just because you've gone off and frustration is got the better of you.
Seeing it through to the end no matter what is the only way to learn otherwise you will be no better than the last time you went off and quit.

Glad to have you race again with us. I think you will like what is in store for October as more of this type of racing, with a few fixed setups thrown in. Taking comments from the drivers along with looking at sign ups these types of events seem to be most popular.

@Calvyn White
You are so right.
I was just curious, couldn't resist.

Well, all you need to do now is get yourself a premium membership and join the event.
If you have any concerns about setups many are willing to help in any way they can.

 

[Vantskruv]

Yeah, I think I got some good consistency with the setup I have now.
I want to join as car number #5 V8.

I actually like the fixed setup races. Mainly because I am not so good at the fiddling with setups part.
I do have a question about this race.
Are we only using real shifters or are we also using flappy paddles?
I dont recall this car having the flappy paddles back in its era.

I too am less than proficient in setting up the car, usually a couple of clicks on the diff and that's about it. Preferences such as aids, traction control, auto-clutch and shift type are all your own (if available in game). Some guys have the hardware to use different shifters, like to heal/toe down shifts etc.. and could probably play quitar. I use paddles on every car with auto-clutch, if and when I get fast enough to consistently finish at or near the top step of the podium I need some HELP. And as far as musical instruments...I listen to the radio.

[EDIT] Would be nice though if there is link shared here from the live stream so I can share it on my twitter

The stream will be on RD's YouTube channel.

Im really looking forward to some fixed setup racing, but the last twelve races were amazing help in learning to set up a car. I have to give massive thanks to all who have been sharing setup tips. Springs and downforce have always been easy, but learning about arb, bump, toe, and differential preloads has been awesome. Not just learning what they do, but seeing how different cars at different tracks respond to the changes in unique ways.

 

[Calvyn White]

V8 hot lap setups with room for improvement such as increasing the front toe.

rfactor club is doing nordschleife combo, we cannot be worse

 

[Vantskruv]

Nice! You forced me to fire up R3E again.

[Ho3n3r]

I'll need to withdraw, evening isn't gonna work out like I thought when I signed up.

 

[Calvyn White]

I too must withdraw due to an unforeseen emergency. I wish people would stop crashing their motorbikes on the way to see me. It's most inconvenient and inconsiderate.

Here's what I've got in the way of setups.
Sorry, once again. I hope you all have fun and good clean battles throughout the grid.

 

[Vantskruv]

Oh man, hope your mate is okay.

 

[balage06]

#*%$, I've been practising on the wrong layout again.

 

[UMC 22]

I'm going to have to sit this out too, my back is still shot from the bloody crash on Monday. Might be time to see a doctor.
