    General Rules & Info

    The cars used in this series are listed in the banner above.

    For this series I have selected 7 street supercars that are not completely BOP'd, but they are close. All cars are of good quality in physics, FFB and sound.
    The cars all have their strengths and weaknesses. The Audi R8 is good in cornering and the Koenigsegg is the fastest car in a straight line but doesn't like corners.
    Each cars has its own character and abilities. You will have to make a strategic choice for which car suits which track best.

    Setting up the cars will be easy because there are hardly any setup options. You basically drive it like it is. You can change the tyre pressure, fuel load and steering angle. That's it.

    I have decided to turn
    tyre wear OFF on the server, so we can focus on racing instead of the tyres going dead after 4 laps.

    To let the small differences in BOP (also track-related) even out, we will take a different car for each round.
    If you do all 7 rounds, you will have used all 7 cars.


    Note: the dashboard dials do not work on every car.

    No Esc. on track rule in Qualification
    In qualification, you can not press Escape (Esc.) while on track (if you crash) and then go back out again.
    If you want to do another run, you have to come into the pits first.

    This is to protect the other drivers from someone taking abnormal risks to set a good lap time and crashing (other cars).

    Every event will have a standing start.

    How is the AUDI for you guys? To me, it seems like the ffb is inverted. The rest of the cars feel normal, very unique, but normal. But for me, the AUDI in a straight line gets the high-speed wobbles with no feel in the middle, but when you turn the wheel, it grabs ahold and yanks in the direction of the turn ...it feels inverted the whole time o_O would be a hard drive for sure lol :confused:

    I know. The trick here is to lower the steering angle. I even had it on 450 degrees. Still turns pretty good and that helps.

    It's undriveable for me ..
    If you ask me, I swear it's broken :eek::D ffb is inverted ..

    But...
    It's not inverted ..I set my ffb to -80% 'negative number for inverted FFB' to test it out ...it feels way worse, so it's not inverted. My issues are 'my issues' i guess:eek:.... for me, at top speeds, if I even just make a fine-tune hairline wheel adjustment at top speeds, the thing goes into the high-speed wobbles. Reminds me of my old skater days :p , lots of scars from back then:rolleyes: ..


    Will this series be broadcast?

    Now I'm in doubt. Was it minimizing or maximizing the steering wheel angle. I forgot. Have to test it tonight. But with one of those it's oke. And we have the same DD wheel.

    So, the Audi is not for high speed tracks like Maastricht, but more for medium tracks.
    To cancel the "inverted steeringwheel" feeling, change the rotation from 900 to 360 degrees and on medium tracks, it goes like the wind.
