rFactor 2 Round 6 Paul Ricard Short

I think theirs something wrong with the "cut penalties" for this version of PR. I get a penalty every lap in the same spot no matter how slow or how 'in the middle' of the track I am??

Is anyone else getting these?

 

DOH I see it now LOL Thx JG

 

Hmmmmm ? Ken?

 

I was on the short track So that's why I didn't get the track cuts while practicing offline the short version has you go strait like in my vid .... Server has the wrong track according to the event page..

 

Sorry guys my Bad, I made the mistake when creating the vmod for John before I went away. Whatever, it's now sorted and we are running the Short layout.

 

Sorry you feel that way guys but the track was stated as "Short" on the Event page. Please always query it if something appears not to be correct. Other members have practised with the Short layout, so they could also feel aggrieved if we didn't run it. Most of the track is exactly the same as the other layouts, it only misses out the 1st sector, so its 75% the same if not more.

My Brands Hatch setup with a couple minor changes works very well for me on this layout.

 

Practice? What's that??

 

I think I need a masterclass from Philipp on how to get the fantastic start he did tonight. From my car it looked like I was standing still . I always use the clutch pedal for the start to control the wheelspin, or at least try to, but the Alpine GT4 would bog down easily unless I only fed in a small amount of clutch movement to stop it. Admittedly I didn't get it right tonight, but both Bjorn and Philipp seemed to have launch control Bjorn of course got caught out using his patented PC2 start technique and earned himself a DT, which was a shame for the potential battle at the front of the field.

After fighting my way back forward against Scott, Michael & Rob (great close racing guys ) I managed to close up to around 4.5 secs on Philipp, but having to push harder than normal, for the last few laps my tyres gave up their grip and I couldn't get any closer. Without my contact(?)/avoidance with Philipp at the chicane on L2 when he braked much earlier than I expected which lost me 9-10 secs, it may have been a different story come the end of the race. Still overall I think these cars have deserved another appearance sometime n the future at SRO.
