Ran a few laps tonight with Jeff, Dale and Jimmy. The sprint tires do fall off crazy fast. When I say fast, I mean I was down to 80% after 4 or 5 laps. I think control tires will be the way to go. Also, I noticed the ft end was jerking when I would upshift, even from like 3rd to 4th. I then turned on auto clutch and that seems to have fixed that issue. Looking forward to Wednesday. how do ya know what percentage ya tyres were? |

Wow, so they are still running a spool even in the transaxles. I thought they were talking about going to a "normal" LSD when they went to the new cars. Evidently not. I stand corrected.  But yeah, a spool is full lock accel & decel. the left & right tires rotate 1:1 at all times...even in a corner. They are essentially "fused" together. That's why the cars tend to understeer when off throttle on turn in. |

ya I always presumed they stuck with spool for the beating they get off curbs & all

I still have not gotten around to renewing /updating (summer time,lol) so won't be able to make this one. If this mod is on track for the next V8 series though I am definitely ALL IN.  Cool Tony. We will see how these next couple exhibitions go and decide if we can make a series of it. |

Looking forward to Wednesday. how do ya know what percentage ya tyres were? I'm using GID (or TrackMap plugins by faserbox or something like that). You can grab it on the ISI forum. Only works with 32 bit at this time. isiforums.net/f/showthread.php/11908-Released-TrackMap-0-94beta-for-rFactor2 |

It seems like this build/FVR version combination is working a lot better than the last time we tried it.
My only complaints are related to the sim this time. I **hate** how getting one wheel off the track will send the car spinning off. Maybe that's realistic, I don't know but it annoys the hell out of me.

ya if ya get a wheel off its instant back off time 99% of the time it has to be more realistic than being able to gun it like ya would on the track

I will try Jason's setup tonight. Two things I couldn't understand was that I could not get this car to turn at all. It was just understeering terribly. I don't know enough about car setups to really know how to fix that, but I tried what I usually do in RF1 and nothing helped.
The other thing was if i got the slightest bit off track I was gone. It was like driving on ice! If I can figure out how to get the car to turn maybe I won't be off track so much.
Still had fun stress testing my machine and also the server.

Good fun last night scrapping w/ Smokey, Hawks, Dale, & Boza. Finished off the night with a bang, that's for sure. Still can't believe I actually pulled off a win in Race 1, that was a bit of a surprise. Congrats to Hawks & Stinky on their wins as well.
