I have a question about the track layout. I don't know what track path to follow. I have never driven this track and it is very confusing. Is there a way to see what the track layout is while driving so I can know where to turn?

Yas is the worst for this! I am going to try and connect tonight so if you are around I can show the path. I should be on by 7pm MST if that time works.

Alternatively someone here my have an onboard already recorded that they may be able to post up.

Cheers!

Thanks! I found a vid Hawks did last year so I will watch that.  I hope to hit the server this evening too.

here is the video

What you need to do is shortcut the pointy part at the start of the lap. That turn (T5) is unmarked.

If you are practicing offline you can also add a few AI cars on the track and follow them around until you know the way. That T5 that F1 pointed out is the tricky one. You want to keep going straight, instead of turning like you actually need to. You just need to ensure you have the correct track layout (if multiple layouts).

That's a good tip. Play follow the leader for a while.

My servers are set so you can't add AI (it messes up LiveRacers results) so like Chris says, run offline.

[neverender158]

Thanks for the advice guys. I will try to play some follow the leader with the AI soon.

Also a good way to get a feel for running a non-conventional line (aka: working traffic).

LOL the simple solution add AI. Never even thought of that.

damn its slippery on the inters

i thought i'd try this and see if it helps some of the newer guys.

awesome tony thoroughly enjoyed watching it mate. you are a lot smoother than me Im gonna have to try & smooth myself out I also notice I take a lot shallower line into corners than nearly everyone else bad habit to break

The easiest way is to jump into an offline test session, then click I when you are in the car and AI will take over your car. You can sit back and watch the AI drive your car around to show you the way.

So nobody really said much to my previous post where I asked if you want the race on Inters to be longer. If nobody cars either way, I'll just leave it as is.
