    Damage setting

    Because the damage model on this car is quite big, I have reduced the damage setting from 100% to 50% for the whole series.

    Drivers Briefing


    1. This event (and all events) has a formation lap and rolling start.
    The pole-sitter will do the formation lap approx. 120 km/h.
    After the chicane we line up in double file according to our qual position.
    When the pole-sitter crosses the start line, the race begins for all.

    2. There is no mandatory pitstop

    3. Fuel and tire usage is normal

    4. The qual & race will be 100% dry

    5. Use of the Esc. key in Qualification

    Use of the Esc key during Qualifying is the equivalent of stopping your car and getting out. This may be done only in your pit stall. There are very few exceptions to this rule. Here are the only two we will currently consider. These exceptions are subject to change at any time:
    1. You run out of fuel in pit lane before reaching your pit stall.
    2. You sustain damage to your car as a result of another driver and cannot make it back to your pit stall. You must prove your qualifying session was wrecked by another driver and that you made an attempt to return to pit lane.

    If you use the Esc key in any location other than your pit stall, your Qualifying session is over and you may not return to the track.

    6. The server password will be changed on race day. You can find the password for the race server on the Daytona RC page

    7. Track update
    Daytona Road Course has been updated to V1.28

    8. Make sure you select the "Road Course" settings in Car Customization

    Well guys...
    I register myself to this series to have a bit o fun on a Saturday night evening.
    Not to be pushed away in Qualy and in Race in such a wide track like Daytona.
    Maybe that's the reason why the damage setting was set to 50%.
    I only can imagine what is going to happen on the rest of the tracks...
    Fortunately rF2 competition system is getting better and better.
    BTW, great battle Balazs Flossman, enjoyed it a lot mate. ;)
    Hope you guys have fun... I'm out of it...

    Man, that is the worst. I get pissed when my system freezes and most of the time it does for rFactor than any other sim I have. Sucks man.

    Every lap, you were gaining about 3 tenths from me. To the point you were like 4 seconds ahead. I also noticed when I was behind you, I couldn't get a tow. It didn't exist. Maybe my front wing is to high? I haven't touched it from default but now I might have to.

    All and all, I had fun. If only we can get more drivers involved.

    Really? Do you know the channel by chance Toni or anyone?

    Please look at the mail I've sent you Paulo and look at the video inside.
    You might have some responsibility in this too :)

    Congratulations Johnny!
    Just before qualifying started my screen started stuttering. Went out to try and fix it, came back and it was still there. Went back out and did a complete restart but when I came back to rejoin it was too late, you were all on the formation lap. :( Do not know why the stuttering happened or if it is fixed. Same thing happened on the last race. :( Need to find some time to sort things out and with a bit of luck might be able to get at least one race in.
