Ooops, I selected the wrong layout - it's was supposed to be Circuit 1A-V2 (GTP). Thanks for pointing this out mate. My apologies. I'm more than happy to change the track configuration if people are happy for me to do so.

You've got my vote for a looooong straight!
(So many layouts fro this track, it is easily confusing...)

you know my vote, but I will race anything

 

[Tero Dahlberg]

My only issue with looong straights is that they are boooring But whatever the layout is it won't stop me from joining

 

[sau20vt]

Porsche 911 RSR please XD

 

[Will Mazeo]

I'm in with a Vette

 

[Case_]

In with a GTE, I guess. Thank you.

(Edit: Or the reserve, as it seems. Doesn't have to be GTE in that case.)

 

[Calvyn White]

Well I'm hoping I fix some issues that I've been having with this simulator. Drastic frame drops, which returns randomly. Force Feedback dropping off completely and does not return until sim restart.
Anyway put me in GTE plz.
And I'll see if I can complete a race without any shenanigans.

 

[Warren Schembri]

when trying to join the server, I am getting a 'Package Not Available' error.

Is anyone else getting this?

Just subscribe to the circuit in the steam workshop, that fixed it for me.

I've added you both to the Reserve list and noted you would both prefer the GTE , I think there may be another 2 spots

Are you running in VR Calyvn one thing I've noticed don't know if is purley VR related but if I lose conection to the server then rejoin without first shutting down and restarting the RF2 launcher I get serious framerate issues.
Also do you have FFB reset button mapped in Control/Device settings.

 

[Case_]

@Calvyn White One thing that solved most of my original issues I had with rF2 a few months back (intermittent stutters, lags and slowdowns) was to start it with high priority. Just put +highprio into the launch options fields for both single player and multiplayer (and don't forget to click save for both):

This worked wonders for me - I basically couldn't even race in rF2 without it, it was always stuttering and lagging. Not sure why rF2 is pretty much the only game I ever had to run with high priority, but that's rF2 for you I guess.

If it doesn't do anything for you, then obviously just remove it again (and again don't forget to save the empty field, which is kinda counterintuitive).

Also, in regards to slowdowns and FFB dropping out, you might try another possible tweak - in your controller.json file (in your rF2 folder under "\User Data\player\), there should be a "Use thread" line, set to either true or false (might vary on different setups). You might want to try to invert the setting - so set to "false" if it was "true" or to "true" if it was "false". This option sets whether or not the FFB calculations run in their own thread or not - some setups can have FFB and performance related issues if they do use their own thread, some if they don't, so it's worth testing. If it doesn't work for you, then just change it back to how it was, of course.

Thank you, but as I mentioned, I really have no preference. I signed up for GTE mostly because there was still a free slot in GTE at the moment, but got by Will

Oh oh, I'll have to be really careful this week...

 

[Will Mazeo]

I need a skin with a target

There are indeed two more spots on the grid (which is actually limited to 38 cars by the number of garage spaces), but I had not indicated these on the list - my apologies. So @Martin Fiala and @Calvyn White can be moved up the list; I shall do this now. Martin, I have added you to the GTE class for now, but just let me know if you would like to switch to the LMP2 class.

 

[Crashhard Banger]

Full House . @Daiman Patel , @Stephen Gibb - Can you let us know the in-game start time and time progression setting, pls? I want to test it out to see how my PC handles it in VR. Thx.
