    Hi Ken
    I can´t get the track to work after download with the link on the forum.
    I can see it in my content named T78_Hockenheimring
    But I can´t search it or make it load :confused: any clue :confused:

    Is there a way to edit it? Looking in the catalogue for RF2 I can see cars , but not tracks ?

    My Bad I think as I used the previous version 1.23 of the track and it's been updated to v1.5. Try it now and it should be OK. If you have any problems try deleting filename SRO Alpine 110 GT4 R5_10 in folder ..\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\Installed\rFm and then join the server again which will reload this file.

    Had to pull out, can't compete with my tire issues.. tried everything camber, ratio, toe, pressure lifting on apex . .. it wares the same every time no matter what o_O it was 1 red dot left after 20 min of driving .. love the mod but it must be my driving style lol even if I slowed to 1:51's it still wore the tire out in 15 + min.. :rolleyes:

    So during driving you have an eye on the tire surface temps respectively the colored visualization? Presumably, I do not have to tell you, that yellow is pretty bad and should be avoided.

    I try to reduce the speed and the lateral force by the steering angle, in particular at the last two turns. It is probably easier said than done, but I did not change anything at the set-up.

    And I have to tell you, after stupid me missed the braking point and my unsafe rejoin (sorry I did not see you Kay), I increased my efforts to save the tires. In the first stage I was slower than you and Flaviu, but that soon changed.

    Although I might have overdone my tire management. I started to push, with 10 minutes to go I drove the fastest lap of the race and caught Flaviu with 5 minutes to go. But while I was clearly faster, I could not pass him. At the finish line, my tires were in good shape, so I started too late to push...

    I fell out of the game a couple of times, but luckily I still made it to the race.
    The crashes happened while in the pits, always after the session, what is the reason?
    Rob there was no way the tires could last!

    Congrats to my fellow podium player , also a big thank you to Admins for all the fun you give us. :p
    I had my best performance ever , as I am practise product nice to see that it worked out.
    Practise session was good, manage to put in a 1:47:600 at last.
    Qualy was good manage to get out first , thank you Michael.
    Manage to get a even better time with 1:47:553 and go by Michael to pole.

    Race I was a bit slow out off the box, I think but got some space from Michael in first corner.
    then it was a good chase on my ass ;) in aprox 35 min or so , when I guess Kai got some issues and back off
    a bit. Mid race I had some small error in brake point and totaly missed some " to much look in the mirror I guess :oops:"

    I did my strategy as in Jerez , look at tyre´s until the got hot.
    After that I took the leader board, and fxxx what Crew Cheif told me about time and tyres :D
    just try to feel the car all time and keep focus.

    Hope I can join in on the last race also. All depend on the status off our little grand kid .

    Steady race for me
    Qually P8, nice start following Philipp for 10 laps, get to P6 after Rob pull off then a spin drop to P8 behind Chris and Scott, manage to get close to them and was a pressure train to the end :D all three with me on the best seat in the house, they are driving awesome and it was very hard to keep with them to find a little hole to try a move, couple of times I lost them and regain again and on the last lap I was able to find a little space on inside of T2 brake just a little late and get a good exit this time to keep it and end up P7.
