regarding the hockenheim bug:
I just use the provided hq cars from the hq anniversary patch. It happens with the Lotus as well as with other cars. very strange.
Anything to look for, you have another idea?

Edit: aha, i found the solution: i right clicked on the track symbol in motec software, den "track editor" and i notaeced the track length was just 753 meters or so, then i clicked on "generate track" and the hockenheim data was right there, so i just applied "ok" again and now it is showing the correct track data...strange

Man, motec is an awesome tool. You can layout the data in any conjuction you want. But it is rather complex to understand.
I have a basic understanding of car setups but for example i have no clue what data like damper position and damper velocity tells me, you need some correlation of what that data is actually telling you.
Is a higher value on damper velocity meaning that the damper is moving faster, what direction, bump or rebound?

You could probably spend years to figure out what to do with motec i2

If you are curious about learning how to interpret data, you may be interested in https://virtualracingschool.com/academy/category/iracing-career-guide/ really educating.

Also, there's fantastic paid tool, Z1Analyzer, it is very buggy, but it is very user friendly. I do not however know if it works with GTR2. Might work to some extent via rF1 Plugin API (shared memory).

Nice to see your excitment around the depth and complexity of GTR2 - reminds me when I first installed it in 2014. It is _the_ game that made me never fire up arcade racing games again Enjoy the journey.

Also gives you a more detailed understanding of car setups that can help you in real life driving and setting up your own car
