Make sure you do. Aside from ensuring your gears are long enough, track familiarity is far more important than setup for this place. There are some very fast sections you need to learn the correct line for

i couldnt find a 1975 track map to copy into post 1 but this is the circuit configuration (4th image down) https://www.statsf1.com/en/circuit-buenos-aires.aspx hence my scalextric comment as it looks the kind of circuit i would have made up! A very satisfying track to race around on, big kahunas required for braking at the end of the Recta del Lago!  and the huge sweeping Salotto is very technical  |

yes i saw the wiki links but they dont let you swipe their map images. They become a format that this site doesnt support (as far as i know). |

For anyone still not sold on the DFV sounds I found and linked to in the series threads  Standard sounds from the Mod (Lotus 72 - One of the better sounding cars) https://youtu.be/AkrhTDgVDwcHesketh 308 - Using the updated DFV sounds: https://youtu.be/mVxhIXbLNXM |

good work FMG I see Fabri has been putting the laps in over the weekend and has now edged me in the timings with his shiny red Ferrari. But if the race runs true to form,both Ferraris will collide and take each other out not much sign of other drivers practising despite the two weeks notice  |

I did a 4 lap race against a full grid - looks awesome in the new replay cameras, especially lap 1.

not tempted any of the SRO guys over? Had no bites from F1 classic site or Kunos either. I would have thought this series would grab the attention of the enthusiasts. Not even the VDA guys have ventured over.

Based on the fact its just a bad 5 minute conversion from a GPL mod or similar that was originally made 15 years ago. 50 pence corners, no physics mesh - those bumps exiting some turns are misalignment / gaps between the poly of the track model because there aren't enough of them, and the god awful textures - for example the white lines are the edge of the track just turn into a blurry mess 50m in front the car. Not fun, so I'm gonna get my bra and panties and be a girl this week, which might be more fun |
