Did any of you have this option set to "yes"? It muffles the sounds, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually show the helmet with people who use a 21:9 screen or triple monitors.

I'll have a play with that setting, will report back.

For reference, a proper race legal helmet should not be visible when worn except right at the periphery of the top and bottom of your view (a little at the bottom and a just perceivable bit at the top, nothing to the left or right). Neither a monitor nor VR headset is likely to have the vertical FoV to cover it. This is just the opinion of a grumpy old biker though, so by all means, if you feel like it improves immersion or it's just more 'fun', go for it

I see loads of my racing helmet in real life, no idea what you're talking about....

*ah, I've been wearing it backwards*

I've just checked, only muffles the sounds in Helmet cam view (apparently but who knows)

I'm running late, but I should make the race. Fortunately, I know the track from a previous event, so hopefully I can up to speed in a couple of laps. IIRC, I must join in qualy right? I seem to remember that you can only spectate after that.

Thanks for arranging this Bram and all the guys involved! was great fun again tonight

I am a little disappointed by my end position, as i did put quite a bit of practice in. I struggled hooking up a few of the corners tonight.

Another sterling performance by Mr Leach though!

Have a top Easter chaps and see you on the track next week.

[Bram Hengeveld]

That was cool guys, great racing again. Getting better each week

 

[Kurupt CDN]

Good fun, had been a while since I last raced at RD....thanks!

 

[Fiberoptix]

Thanks for the race. I struggle to be consistent with AMS2 but I shall keep trying it. I better turn down my GPU settings next time, I wasn't expecting rain and it melted my performance. Never raced online with changing weather so that was a cool experience.

 

[SwannyUK]

Great little car and track combo, can't quite get the proper feel for the car after my limited testing but its fun to drive.

 

[MarkModdy]

Captain slow here

I enjoyed the rain... never raced online in the rain either...

I hope i kept out of everyones way ok...

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Really enjoying these cars. Had some nice close racing, especially with @acidburn82uk and @Bram Hengeveld for a few laps until I made some little errors and fell back. The changing conditions is always a bit of fun, especially when it doesn't require a complete swap to wets

 

[acidburn82uk]

Please can we have dry practice sessions going forward? First dry lap was in quali.

 

[Paul_V]

Hope you all had a great time... had to give this one a miss sadly.

Have a nice weekend guys.

Isn't that half of the fun?

 

[acidburn82uk]

Wasn’t a fun night for me sadly!

 

[RustyDriver00]

That was great fun, thanks for organising Bram, changeable weather was really cool too, ams2 has that nailed down!

Was really good racing with you all, will hopefully make another one again soon! (With any luck next week)

Cheers!

 

[Smidgey]

Cheers all for the race tonight. Made a last minute change to the setup for the dry and think I broke something. Couldn’t get the temps down in my right side tyres and it really didn’t make for a fun experience after a few laps.
