Announcing BTCC 2021/22 – Studio-397

 

I will be getting BTCC when available

 

As some of you know the 1128 update broke our rF2 servers after 4 days of pulling our hair out we have found the issue and our servers are back up and running with 1128!
Big thanks to Alex Coutie from 397 for helping us get it sorted out! We did miss 3 races that we hope to make up at the end of those series!
While testing with me he went on to say they will use this info to make sure this does not happen again in future updates!
Thanks for all your patience on this!

 

397 updates GTE & Oreca Tire model + Bop & more adding JVGD's favorite, Shift protection! lol finally rf2 adds this feature from the real cars to the sim ..no more fake transmission down shifting whenever you want ... (you can still use the clutch to speed shift)

 

New hotfix update for Laguna Seca is here!

Laguna Seca V1.17

• Tweaked anti cut and corkscrew apex 1 curbs
• Fixed some floating bushes
• Tweaked Second Apex Corkscrew Curbs
• Faster AI settings
• Fixed Heavy.rrbin profile not loading
• AI tweaks to corridors in pitlane and pit exit
• Fixed AI braking joining pit lane and improved AI line at corner after limiter

That's a good idea. Sounds like fun.
I would advise you to talk to admin Rob Milliken about that. He has all the BTCC DLC I believe.
