Good Luck, this ain't no child's arcade game...try to bring it home in one piece...or at least trash it AFTER you cross the line...

Now this should be interesting..

 

[The Big Dawg]

ya know there is a 2018 cup mod out right?

 

[Highbank]

For rF2?

 

[The Big Dawg]

Yup..I'll dig it up

 

[Highbank]

Cool! The S&G mod is in AC right?

 

[M_Nesevitch]

Im tryin to dig this one, but its not happening.. Smoking the rf all the way through the corner is the first turnoff.. Plus I can't get the wheel to feel right. Feels like it's one of those lotus 49, wandering all over the place. Turning feels fine, but on the straights the FF relaxes or something and it feels like huge dead spot in the wheel. Replays look neat.. Bout the only thing realistic it's got going for it, imo..

ran a 29.674 with the 2018. rf gets KILLED....not a fan

 

[M_Nesevitch]

Sounds about like the one in the OP.. I'll give it a look here in a bit!

 

[The Big Dawg]

its credited to s&g

Definitely like the Cup 2018 mod better then the Monsterly Energized.. It beats up the RF too, but not nearly as bad or smoking it through the entire corner. And the AI seem more equal. Monsterly one has a little better cockpit, imo.. Not sure either are ready for prime time oval racing though.. Road courses perhaps? Oh and the graphics seem blurry on mine. Both mods? May be my computer or settings? Top of the car is ok, but the sides and back are blurry. Anyway..

looks like i left alot on the table

 

[M_Nesevitch]

Bunch of variables in RF2 TBD.. I left and ate breakfast, so when I did my lap the AI had formed a "groove".. And I was running up on 2 cars that were side by side. Not sure what it adds, but it's gotta be some.

 

[The Big Dawg]

i went on a clean track so thats likely why

This is not for the casual oval track/stock car racer or for the feint of heart, this is just like they are in rFactor 1, you have to know how to make a set up and spend hours doing it. You just can't go out and put down decent laps, you have to work a consistent set up that will last a whole run/race, sounds like the real thing doesn't boys. I'm going to guess the one using Splash'N'Go's models will run the same. This is some serious stock car sim racing boys!

In mod car, no adjustment(I could spend days on that alone), ARF.

My guess is that these guys have been around a long time, like way back to '04 threw '08 when all the crap went down with the suing of changing tracks names or using tracks name without permission of the owners.

I'm also thinking that the guys who made this may have been part of the US Pits crew that made their stock car mod.
