    First race on AM2. Question as I looked over and over throughout the game. Is there a way to add or subtract fuel before making a pitstop kind of like in RF2?

    Anything I should know if I pit? I actually feel like I don't know what I'm doing haha.

    yes, you can , cycle through the options with your Pit Menu up/down buttons. If you want to change an option like fuel fillup or tire compound, use Pit Menu increase/decrease buttons on that option.

    On the In-Car Management menu within the car, you need to select the "next page" option to see the Fuel setting which you can then adjust as Matthias has said.

    With the race being 45 min you should be able to make it without refueling ;). Depending on your wheel the pit menus / In-Car management might need to be mapped.
    an example would be on the logi 923 they default to the thumb pad & which makes it easy :rolleyes:..

    Also remember if your new to AMS2 the pit limiter is off when you are leaving pit lane! You need to turn it on manually! Don't get caught speeding !!:D

    I don't know why but my seat or the POV moves back and forth under accelerating and braking. Forward so I can't see the instruments to a meter back into the rear of the car. Crazy.
    It was too distracting to drive. ??? Oh well

    I set all the setting under movement to 0 but still it moves around?

    So strange , maybe some mapping issues? Check the seat movement keys & gas & break peddle inputs? Werd .,,,,

    Maybe you have to set the sesitivity to 0? I don't know Michael. I'm new as well. I feel so strange not knowing nothing, even when I practiced. Then, race day, all my views had changed. I was like, yeah, this isn't good. Race over. Got to go run to get this off my chest. Thanks for the help guys. Next time will be better. :oops::(:)

    Edit: There's a Porsche I tapped and then someone tapped me. Sorry to the driver. My sincere apologies for screwing up your race. :(

    I can only imagine @Johnny Gutierrez surprise when, suddenly, he saw team FKR having a cup of tea in the middle of the track.
    Sorry, Johnny, it was something very important and we can't wait until the end of the race ;)

    It was an eventful race for me. Also, pretty intense one, chasing and fighting @Matthias Ehrenreich for half of the time. Nice race, mate. I hope wasn't my fault your grass exit. I will watch the replay, but I'm sure we didn't touch there.
    Well, maybe I was a little to aggressive. I apologize for this.

    Thanks for the race everyone and especially to Rob (I assume) who sorted out an error I had when joining the community at very late notice for today's race. It was really fun!

    I chose not to qually as I haven't really driven these cars very much and that was some time ago...also I was scared of burning my clutch out as I have read is easy to do...I think I did just that the first time I exited the garage lol!
    Anyway, safer for everyone that way. Low and behold I'm P4 after turn 1 and had a fun few laps with Matthias. I think I gave you a little rub at the corner before the chicane (sorry about that)...going through the chicane side by side with you was a highlight...was sorry to see you get some wheelspin or we might have been side by side for a few more corners :)
    After that I was mostly by myself but with Kai chasing me and not letting me relax while at the same time getting to terms with this car and how the tires behave. Later, fuel started to be a concern to the point I was having to lift and coast which totally messes up my timing and led to a couple of costly spins though I probably wouldn't have held on to that final podium spot even without them. Sorry if I spooked anybody at the bottom of the Craners.

    Congrats to the podium!
