Yahoo this should be fun , this is where i started with SR4L and where a certain DC as he was known then started to kick my butt , at least i won the battle over the name 
Understeer - is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer - is when you hit the wall with the back of the car
Horsepower - is how fast you hit the wall
Torque - is how far you move the wall when you hit it

I don't have that good memories from this track. A bug in the caused random game crashes when pitting, I was one of the unlucky ones.

You mean the windshield? It's too glossy, almost like a mirror. When you're standing still you can see the reflection of the asphalt on the inside of the windshield, but on the outside it looks normal. Maybe something with the alpha channel. It has been like that for ages now.. no fix.

DD's (F3 Rookies) mod (Historic F3-EVE Community Pack) has the windscreen fixed (I believe by Matf1), and BB (F3 Fanatics) is also using this mod on his server. So if it is a big enough annoyance, there is a way to fix it.

Should be fun. I not drove this car in a while.
Dan Minges was looking fast last night when I was on the server for the first time with this car .
There was only the Eve on the server, could not pick my Spark.
I did find my car was doing all weird things if I hit a kerb in the wrong place. I might need to play with ride heights or something.

Yes, I have noticed the same thing. It feels like there are holes in the kerbs where the wheel almost gets stuck and the car wants to turn around.. Really strange. I thought ride height too, but it should not have to do with ride height really because it happens when only the wheels are on the kerb and not the car itself ??? And does not happen with the Lola, so I guess it's car related? We better stay away from them

Btw if you guys have not figured it already, F3 and F2 shares same template, so you can use your skin from last season if you want to

I couldn't download the track from the server. Gamefront looked too dangerous for me to try to download from there. I was never able to download it successfully. Hope you all had fun. There should be another way for members to get components.

Well I have to say it's strange that there are so few links to the latest version, but if can't say it was hard to find though... google "rfactor2 mid ohio 2.02" and you'll have it as first result.

International simracing has both direct download or via mediafire (or gamefront if you are brave? I'm sure it's just fine)

Yes. The website says version 2.01, which is what I have installed. The server says the track version is 2.02 which I don't have. Thanks for trying to help.
