Sorry Picnic, I'm going to be no use to you - haven't played the rFactor version, this one seemed pretty good to me but couldn't tell you. As I used the http://www.weissbierbude.de/ auto installer as soon as I loaded the game, I also couldn't tell you if the track was standard or not either which was clever I know! I suspect not tbh, freely available though. I'm pretty sure it's an addon, I'll have to have a look at this site. As it's Simbin I expect it's a GTR2 conversion and that was pretty rubbish sadly, but I live in hope. I'm sure iRacing won't take me up on my suggestion

I agree with most of that Oily. However, the public races are ruddy awful. 3 starts and 3 times I was punted off at T1, reminded me of iR. A real shame as I saw some familiar faces (it can't be that accurate cause Purdie out qualified me ) and I just found it plain old simple fun. Don't think I'm overstepping the mark to say GBGTL do a Race race every other week on Wednesday, doesn't clash with anything here, if anyones interested. I wouldn't want to race it every week but its always fun if you bring the right spirit

Ah yes, sorry, when I say public servers I mean the weissbierbude ones, they're not passworded but I think the fact you need their auto-installer thing works as a bit of a filter for the complete wallies. Cheers for the heads up on GBGTL, worth the odd visit defo! P.s - Picnic, I'll ZIP and upload Castle Coombe tonight for ya so you can check it out for yourself.

Public servers are hell in every sim racing, i believe. But fortunately, first or second time i joined a p.server, i had one of the most good fights with a lad that enjoyed so much, as me, and gave me the link of a community. This community is almost focus on GTREVO and RFACTOR events. They have daily (fun) events and week championship races. Daily events are very different from each other, one day you have 260 Caterham in a STCC wet track, next day you have 4 city tracks, in which you have to choose carefully 4 different cars, that you believe suits better to each track. I have had 3 Mini(BMW) cup 80 mins races (always with 25 - 30 guys starting). Have a look, at http://forum.racedepartment.com/portal.php

I wouldn't want to race it every week but its always fun if you bring the right spirit Hmm tempting, but how to fit it in, think the missus would blow a fuse if 3 nights in a week were spent racing...there must be a way...there must be tranquilisers for her....... Just had a look at RaceDepartment too, that's a pretty full schedule, looks good too to avoid public server crashing.

How about if he throws in this gourd?
1. the hard-shelled fruit of any of various plants, esp. those of Lagenaria siceraria (white-flowered gourd or bottle gourd), whose dried shell is used for bowls and other utensils, and Cucurbita pepo (yellow-flowered gourd), used ornamentally. Compare gourd family. 2. a plant bearing such a fruit. 3. a dried and excavated gourd shell used as a bottle, dipper, flask, etc. 4. a gourd-shaped, small-necked bottle or flask. —Idiom 5. out of or off one's gourd, Slang. out of one's mind; crazy. Which one?

Nope I won't be trying it again, I'd rather play RACE 07 than GTR-E and I'd only play that to laugh at the fact you can drive the WTCC cars at 90 degrees to the track for most of the corners. Since they're FWD that's pretty realistic. That amount of power through the front wheels would be more capable of dragging the car from a 90 degree slide, or with the right weight transfer, continuing that slide.
