Definitely a setup file in there Myles, are you sure your virus checker is not deleting it or something?

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - Dan Bayford - 30-07-2021

Where do you put the file please im useless at that kind of stuff Smile

If you can not see the setup in game you might need to toggle the 'Show Only Relevant' button. See screen shot. The reason for this is SpeedRacer7 might have been driving a skin from a different Car/Class group to you.

   


Please note all car skins/classes/years are all equal in this mod. Feel free to chose any. They are all the same.

Yep - got it this time. I wonder if I accidentally highlighted the file in the ZIp and deleted it!

all cool then. let me know how it works for you.
curiously, i tried to copy a top setup from Live for Speed FBMW community and ops, on rF2 it drove like a shopping cart!

Well, I’m currently topping the times! I have made a couple of minor tweaks to (more) suit my style but fundamentally, the setup is yours.

It took me a while to ‘get’ the push-through-understeer approach as I normally aim for a very pointy front end and just manage the oversteer.

I might try to set the car up from scratch myself at some point but as I can’t do Sunday nights, it might be a while…

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - Dan Bayford - 31-07-2021

I tried it yesterday off line i was faster and the car felt really good to drive thanks very much for sharing im terrible at setting the car up I tend to make it slower with every click so sharing your set up is much appreciated

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - DJCruicky - 01-08-2021

12 laps each race tonight. Hope to see you all there.

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - 7th Samurai - 02-08-2021

first online race i took this week i couldn't start because of steam hick up, in second one the PC froze and now the wheel got disconnected. it probably means a wonderful next week Smile

great comeback, David! you said 'close racing', but you were only playing with me, teasing in each race with hope i could pull away.

see you guys in 'California' next Sunday!

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - Dan Bayford - 02-08-2021

My game crashed at the start of qually back to desktop and when I tried to restart it said the game wasn't installed so I had to reinstall and just didn't have enough time to set up controller so it was a washout for me. Also a few times when changing up a gear it went down a gear very strange not sure what to try to sort it any ideas would be appreciated Smile

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - 7th Samurai - 02-08-2021

Dan, my default advices would be to check the temperatures of your processor and graphics card (if it's overheating, blow compressed air through venting system or reapply thermo paste in worse case), switch controller to another USB slot, check device manager for any hardware conflicts, monitor task manager for any interfering processes. always start an important race with a clean boot, come to pre-race warm-up early and just try to be zen when hardware goes haywire.

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - 7th Samurai - 02-08-2021

rF2 (or any other racing sim) doesn't simulate mechanical failures too stringently (imho), so i interpret my hardware/software issues as real life car failures (which i can learn on). and if PC doesn't allow me to race safely anymore, i deem it as sponsor retreat due to something like a ban on tobacco advertisement or covid-19-induced recession.

when will the server for Toban be up?

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - DJCruicky - 05-08-2021

I poked Fergy with a very long hot poker. He has it up and running now, cheers.
See you on the track soon.

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - Fergy - 05-08-2021

HahaTongue

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - DJCruicky - 07-08-2021

10 laps per race tomorrow. Hope to see you all there.

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - DJCruicky - 08-08-2021

Thanks guys, it was fun.
Looks like JohnCook, Tobias, and MichelBougie were having a great battle in last race. Very gentleman racing. JohnC one tough cookie to overtake for the other 2 Smile.
I was miles in front. I was missing Speedracer7 to battle with, he never showed Sad. I ended up with 3 easy wins racing myself Big Grin.

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - Fergy - 08-08-2021

Thanks for the running the show. Great car and track combo. Especially the tracks. A lot of fun. Sorry I couldn't join in.

Cheers,
Bryan

RE: Sunday Evening Sprint Series - 7th Samurai - 09-08-2021

apologies for missing the race. once again it would have been just a formality with no challenge from me to David. although my PB in practice looked competitive, there was zero consistency and rear tires would start burning in lap 6,. I feel ashamed to have chickened out in this unsportsmanlike way, but was in no shape for any battle. Sad ... congratulations and awe to the best man! .. and hope to race you guys again!
