My first proper race in rF2 and boy was it a good one! Everything went according to plan except tire wear. I hadn't tested the MEDIUM compound for full race distance and so, with 2 laps to go, the front left went. Still P2, came away very satisfied. I only have one bad thing to point out. This version of this track is old and very badly made, the cambers are all wrong. Here's a much better version of Portimão: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2512160738 Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed the race Miguel . Thanks for the info on this updated version which I'll take a look at with possibly using it in future races.
Great race, leader got away in traffic. Was very carefull and Johnny suffered from that too beeing a gentleman he is. Then had little slide and he drove to victory. I had the pace sometimes and othertimes not. Consistency just wasnt there. Car was very slippery and lost lots time on that one uphill compared to others. My car has old engine...
Was fun Racing with Penny , it was so intense & i loved every part of it , i was sweating so hard , 35 C° degrees today , room was boiling , also i didn't have enough downforce so every last corner before the finish line i get left behind , it was very close that it was just a matter of keeping our focus & consistency stable , sadly Penny Spun at some point going uphill in which i literally screamed NOOOoo , as i felt it wasn't a conclusion to our battle , but can't deny that it was an awesome one , specially with the P2 banging our doors sometimes ( no problem ) . looking forward to Sebring , sadly i can't do the Le Mans because my wallet cannot afford it right now , if it was a free mod i would've joined but it's allright . thanks @Ken Jagger for the host <3 !
Hi Nassim Sorry to say I think it was me a bit to agressive try to regain time on Gerhard after my pitstop
Congrats to all podium player´s great and awesome pace from you. also a big thank you to admins for all the fun My race was a disaster after about 20 min I already had a lot off osillation in my wheel/whellbase drove on for awhile , but had to make a pitstop for new tyres. But didn´t do much good. This osillation thing only occurs in RF2 and it so bad my whole rig is shaking and its a mess for the whole house. Today I have severe pain in my hands ,try to keep hold off the wheel. Can any one give me some info about what to do? I use a Clubsport V 2,5 Wheel Base ??
Grats both podiums!!! Frustrating racefor me, no fight in sight. Ken did what was necesssary to keep a 20 sec gap, i could not close it because i had to save my tires, which were really cooked. Sorry for Björns fate, we had a good tandem stint, but first he lost grip, so he had to pit, and then his wheel shook like crazy - today he must feel like after a 3 days rave. Hope you can sort it out soon mate.
I had some from L1 after the minutest little lock up. This mod seems to create flat spots when you haven't even created one.
Yes exactly . I had the same thing ..4 or 5 laps in with still fresh tires on the main strait it would start to act like flat spots & shake the hell out of everything lol. I agree with Miguel that this tracks camber seems a bit off/wonky when compared to other versions of this track .. I did enjoy the Vett though ;-)
Unfortunately that's all I can do for this series. I'm going to be away on holiday for round five, and I don't want to pay for the track for round six. Good luck for the rest of the season guys!
Sorry for the late posting. Life gets busy. I had fun with all racers here. Good racing with Toni and Miguel. They were both fast and I qualified 3rd. Race started and I was happy being in 3rd as the two were faster than I was at the start plus Ken was behind me and fast as well so I didn't want him to catch us so no real fighting at the beginning for anyone. As the race went on, I could see Miguel and Toni duking it out a bit. I stayed behind as I was happy and didn't really want to push. Later on, traffic got involved and Toni wobbled a tiny bit but that was enough to get me past him. It's one thing racing someone, it's another think passing as we were both being patient. Good fun racing with him. Then I thought, "Well, second is good if Toni doesn't catch back up". Then, eventually, I caught up to Miguel as I could tell he was having tire issues with his sliding around a bit more than the norm. I just waited until I saw the moment Miguel's rear wheels just weren't catching traction on certain apexes. Went around on the the outside as my tires were a bit more together still. Overall, it was a good win and racing. These guys are fast and I'm happy to finish with them. A race for me is always a win when I turn on my computer, run rF2 and finish without the system crashing or the computer doing it's weird thing and kicking me to desktop. If it doesn't do this, I'm just happy to race with everyone here as everyone is in different parts of the world but we all play with the same rules. Just Awesome. Johnny.
