A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.


Golden Rule

1. Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

• No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
  You will be penalized if you break our rules
• Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

My first very quick attempt at a setup is below. Feel free to post something more scientific... or just better.

Great, I'll add you to the list.

Not sure, it's a crossover week in terms of holiday, so I might be away.

I did a small test though, fun car and track combo, and time to find everywhere.

 

[Jim Carvalho]

Either the server has missed an update or I have. I know where the odds lie.

Hmmm, I just checked and I got straight in. I have auto updates on in Steam. Are you saying that the server list says "wrong version", as in wrong version of rF2?

I've given the car a good go but for me there's something wrong with the geometry. It really falls in to the corners, as if the FFB diminishes to zero.

Also a graphical problem with flickering of the model.

Need to give it a miss, sorry.

OK buddy, thanks for posting.
I was a little hesitant about running the car, but it's new and from a well known modder, so I thought I'd give it a go.

What would you guys like to drive next week?

Cars:

Steam Workshop::1967 Endurance (Proto/Sports/GT)

steamcommunity.com

... or 60's F1

Track:

Steam Workshop::Gnoo Blas Version 1.20

steamcommunity.com

Looks a bit like Longford...

 

[Jim Carvalho]

Denis, the server wants to give me another version of the car. I'm subscribed and up to date for both the car and track ... I think. I'll double check in a bit. ... Yes, I'm properly subscribed.

Daniel, I think the 1954 mod would be more appropriate for a 1953 track, but I love the 67 mod too.

 

[Daniel R.]

@Denis Betty hey mate, I'm really sorry, but I have to sign out.
I just can't get a hand on the alfa, it feels wrong. It's a shame since graphically it's a beauty, but driving is just awkward.
Really sorry!!
Hope I don't ruin the evening now...
