I'll be on the server for a little practice in about one hour if anyone want to join me

OK thanks.
Well I'll check that it didn't somehow get set to strict.

I'm not gonna turn it off completely though. I firmly believe that racing with some kind of track limits enforcement is beneficial to fairness overall. Sure you can get punted and receive a pen for the resulting off track, but mostly we will all just have to learn to take more care IMO.

I think I'm correct in saying that this system tries to account for "no advantage gained". So you can slow down and maybe avoid the more sever penalty?

It's not overly harsh, just need to be aware. Is it set to 5 warnings? That should be fine. It seems you can slow down and avoid a penalty.

It seems you can slow down and avoid a penalty.

This is what I've been asking people to do for several years and so did Rupe for years before that. Gotta be a good thing IMO.

 

[Jasje]

count me in as maybe pls!

5 warning points. On the MFD (HUD) option where you see if you have a penalty or not, it will keep count on the points you have gotten. It will also pop up on your monitor.

So the smalles penalty are 0.5 points, so you can do 9 of those without a penalty. I have gotten 3 points once, but I do think the harshest is 5 points and a penalty.

Awesome.
Welcome aboard.
I'll add you with an asterisk.
Hope to see you on track tomorrow.

I recommand taking the number 9 car to create the skin directory.

To use liveries in game:
Choose a car in game(remember the number on the car). Click tuning/customize, and "create dir".
Find the created folder in: Steam\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\UserData\player\Settings\Caterham_Academy_2021\(number on car) Unpack zip-file. Paste all the files there, and choose it on tuning/customize in game. Voila!

It hasn't started yet, so I assume that if you can jump on the server before the hour is up you'll be in!

That DC from 15s in the lead at Silverstone was painful. Just need to bring it back with a few rounds where I don't spin out from the lead.
