Rules:
If you have not entered the server and driven a few laps with fellow drivers before we go to qualifying you are to late for that session. Please think of your fellow drivers and get out on track with them, watch how they drive, you can't race with guys you have not seen drive.
We ALL brake a little differently and drive the corners differently, get used to how they drive and then we can all race more safely.
If you drop out of the server during qualifying you can return.

This is being held in our Club, using Club Rules, and should be driven in that spirit.

Didn't do a great deal of testing for this combo. It was either intuitive, a lucky break, or just obviously always gonna be a winner. Anyway, turned out ok I think. You gotta love these cars. Maybe we should drive them more often?
I'm very much looking forward to Sunday nights event now.

My thoughts exactly

Roland · Feb 28, 2018

Definitely WANT to be there, just not sure yet if I WILL be...

Tarmac Terrorist · Feb 28, 2018

Absoloutley great fun! Brilliantly scary cars!

On another note I'd just like to ask, why is damage at 50% and driving view is free? Im sure it used to be 100%, not sure about driving view though

Well, I know what you mean about driving view and damage. We recently had a server upgrade, which required a fresh install of rFactor and the mod. I thought we always used 50% damage, but I could be wrong. Anyway, I set the dedi up, as best I could, how we had it before. It turned out that at least one guy wouldn't race, with view locked to cockpit, so I opened it up.
Thing is, I'd like to try to increase the numbers at our club if we can. I therefore don't wanna do anything to discourage anybody from joining. Inclusive is the word, I suppose. I mean, I guess it doesn't really affect anybody else, if you drive using another view. So long as you're safe.

BTW, great racing last night @Tarmac Terrorist and, in fact, everyone else around me tbf.

Ive put a post up on the Facebook page for that other Rfactor site that just closed down with links to the relivant RD stuff, so hopefully they'll move over here. Pretty sure it was 100%, I like that, damage is pretty important to me, makes me drive better if its on full and If there is a crash, or if i crash out, I at least can see the spectical on the replay. I think Cockpit view is important to as if a cars got bad visiblity then its the same for everyone, but I can understand you wanting to get more players.

It was really great racing last night, cheers mate!
