So I ran a series of races in the SPEC Ford in rFactor last night just little 5 lappers, but had a ball, didn't run the Q session just let it toss me in randomly, which seemed to be P18 in a 25 car field everytime.
I ran Mid-Ohio, Willow Springs, Lime Rock, and Laguna Seca...I managed a win in all of them...with some great battles along the way. One thing about the ai in rFactor, they'll fight you, they block you, then once you get by them they just give up. Oddly though, if they are behind you they'll try to get by you...if they had just combined those two behaviors we'd of had some fantastic ai to race.
I like the Spec Ford, it is a fun car that doesn't overpower the tracks...ever...
Obviously I need to crank the ai up a little to make it more of a fight, i didn't just blow thru the fields, but I was able to get to lead by
the last lap in each race...only at Laguna Seca did it seem like I might not get it done, the lines the ai wanted made it tough to pass.
I haven't just raced for fun like that in a while, not short races anyway...I usually make them substantially longer races...but with thes low powered cars the sprints felt right.
