Title: V8 Team Championship Post by: Clive Loynes on August 30, 2012, 10:15:49 AM +0100 MARA and Flatout are nearing the end of a team championship using the Historic Touring Car mod. The next season looks like it may be a four way battle using the V8 mod as posted here:-

For those who've not raced rF recently, I can highly recommend it. Some of these later mods are of fantastic quality and the latest V8s are a great example of this. Would only need a handful of takers to get a team up :) Title: Re: V8 Team Championship Post by: Wiltshire Tony on August 30, 2012, 06:57:22 PM +0100 Does nothing for me so I'll pass (I'd be carp anyway)

I find the FF system in rFactor to be a nightmare but Tudor can give you some guidance on that.

I find the FF system in rFactor to be a nightmare but Tudor can give you some guidance on that. Getting the ffb feeling right is certainly a nightmare and was one of the things that put me off racing rF until recently. If you ask 100 different people you are likely to get at least 100 different opinions on what works best. The basic rF ffb feels a bit dated now, so many use additional ffb plugins. There is a good guide to using Realfeel ffb and Leos ffb combined (a popular choice for many) here.... http://www.nogripracing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=242549 Personally I now find that using just Realfeel with some rF canned effects (and not using Leos) suits me best. Others prefer to just use Leos ffb. It's worth spending some time with it and doing some head scratching to get the best results for you. Title: Re: V8 Team Championship Post by: quicksilver384 on August 31, 2012, 07:42:32 PM +0100 its a toughy.
after 5 praccy laps i managed 1:32.7 but should be able to knock a second or 2 off that. The Holden seems more stable to me but I still think Fords are better. Title: Re: V8 Team Championship Post by: Clive Loynes on August 31, 2012, 07:57:42 PM +0100 It has taken me twenty minutes to realise how the speed limiter is switched off!
Done one corner and retired to see if the awful music can be switched off.

Never do get on with modern stuff! >:( EDIT Managed to get down to 1:35 but Tudor is in the 1:25s :o |
