Why dont people like F3??

Dave Begley · Nov 17, 2011

Regular F3 races are being held on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it seems to be the same 8 or 9 people that join.

Someone tell me whats wrong with F3.

To me they are the best add-on car to GSC. Yes they are a handful to drive at times, but thats part of the fun.

If we can get 34 cars on track for the Stock car league, why cant we get enough people in F3 club races?

Are they not powerful enough? Are they ugly? Are they just less fun than other cars?

The club races on tues and thurs are the perfect way to wind down after a busy day.

Have a beer, chat on TS and race, what more could you want ??

So join tonights race at Vanport.

You never know you might even enjoy it.

I would join but too much issues at this time with the F3.
I plan a championship but I have to wait a patch or something else.
Sure this car is great!!!

@ Angel: Apply for your license and come join in the club events. http://www.racedepartment.com/application-rules/

@ Patrick: The only problem we have encountered is the 2 cars with different wheels not working. As for that a fix has been posted in the F3 release thread.

F3 is my preferred car. I don't race very often (don't have much time), so I'm not an "expert" in setups or an alien on track, but I race clean and like fair play. Have won some online races, most of them on NkPRO.

Reading this thread I learned about the F3 races (Thuesday and Thursday)? I wasn't aware of that (most of the time I race offline or with close friends on my private server). Tried to join and then learned that it is required to be a licensed member. Tried the link and it redirected me to a page with smilies...

Not sure what I did wrong, but before I dig in, at what time does the races occur? I live in Brazil, so there may be timing issues for me. Other than that, I'm glad to see people starting to organize races using GSC - really a nice sim.

You did nothing wrong m8. We are currently migrating our servers and forum software and have to disable applications during that migration time.

Next week it will re-open again in full speed

I love the F3 and I would race it if I wasn't working at that time. Any F3 race on weekends count me in (as long as it's not concurrent with one of my league races).

By the way, the F3 works great for me. I have a G25 with G27 customized pedals. Not a problem. What was wrong with it?
