Looks like fun, but can't join 99% change that I won't be home on time to be part of this.

Maybe next time.

David O'Reilly · Jul 14, 2014

I'm in for sure. These cars produce excellent realism and quality and mega close racing.
Thanks

I did a 45 mon practice race vs AI yesterday. The AI are very good in this Track/Mod combination.
I got a small gap say 2 sec then when tyre wear kicked in I was under a lot of pressure. AI passed me but I managed to get back by and won by 0.3 sec with 5 AI within .7 sec.
This car is a bit addictive. One of the best available in RF2 IMO.

. If you'r faster you wont need it

Gijs van Elderen · Jul 17, 2014

I've set some more realistic weather:
Clouds come and go.
Temps: between 17-22*
Humidity: 40-65%
Wind: a breeze: south-south west.

Have fun. I'll be at Zandvoort driving the real deal.

didnt really have the highest expectations, as i didnt know the car, nor the track but then i tested the car and instantly got hooked, so much fun

Can you send me 2 setups, I'm really slow Lol. No really I have just enough time to learn the track tommorow, could use help on setup. Thx

Genci Estebanez · Jul 17, 2014

Sign me up please. For sure I'm slower than you David.

The feeling of driving that Ferrari is quite nice. Closer to a street car than a race car.

That's how it feels to me, a very authentic Challenge Stradale. I drove the 360 Modena (no Stradale) quite a bit when working for a Ferrari dealer in Sydney.
@Jeff Lasecki Ill pm you a setup.

Edit: No sense being secretive; club event and all Setup here.
