The race is this Sunday folks. If you are new and plan on racing, get the mod installed and put in some practice laps.

This feels a completely different track in my Lump, I set off confidently after the Porsche event, that had gone quite well by my standards...several unfinished laps later my confidence plummeted somewhat. Where the Porsche rode the curbs happily the Lump just swaps ends, so it is going to be a nerve racking event, corners are where I make my time in this car, it is slow on the straight but these are now my danger zone...Going to be an intense hour and a half. Thank goodness it's a day event ;-)

Have you tried the Spyker? Its ugly as sin but has a nice V8 snarl. F1 tried it last night and liked it.

[smokey]

ok will give it a go as you said its ugly as sin havent tried it yet because of that lol

[Kelly G]

You don't have to look at it while driving it though and you could pretend you are driving a custom Corvette?

[oldslowfred]

anyone found a way in this mod to get rid of those annoying extraneous sounds like pitguns while racing?
I downloaded the quiet sounds file that Hawks posted and replaced the Ambient and Secondary folders.
(By the way I think that download is specific for V8 supercars? The ORSM folder does not exist in Enduracers.)
Tried a couple laps and perhaps the sounds are quieter (wont really know likely until get online with other users).
But it still does the pitgun sound and a couple others as you go by the pits. I have trouble believing that I should be able to hear pit guns as I go by at 200+ mph

[oldslowfred]

Also Enduracers does not seem to be showing up in Liveracers...

[Seahawks1Fan]

The quiet sound file i made is specific for the V8 mod, but if you replaced the ambient and secondary files that are in it, it should work for this (and any other mod for that matter).

I noticed LR is not showing up also. I ran a couple laps last night and wanted to see where I'm at in relation to the rest of the field, but to no avail.

Oh well, that's probably good as I would only be demoralized I'm sure!

[smokey]

ambient & secondary in the game itself or sound file? sitting in menu driving me nuts lol
