I think in Jacksonville the default was always good. The upgrades are forced by the track/server. Jacksonville is simply flat out, but of course you can do some adjustments so the car handles better in traffic.

@Daiman Patel Do you have the Safety Car activated for the race? Could be important, because as soon as you loose contact at the end of the group (around 0.6 to 0.7 seconds) you loose the draft and loose so much time you can never catch up.

Yup, "severe" incidents should result in a safety car being deployed for around 2 laps; I haven't updated the rFM file since the last round of 'Oval Night' club races.

Stefan, make sure to choose the Superspeedway car in the Tuning options, the default setup is pretty decent as its a flat out track(then add abit of grille tape, but watch the engine heat if drafting behind cars)

I've got my rubber splitter installed so i am ready to draft tonight

 

[TobiasR]

just got on the server and there's like 15 AI drivers

 

[TTupsi]

Oh yeah, I did a practice race against them earlier today
I thought they would be gone when I left!

 

[TTupsi]

About that though, I crashed in one of the races I did and there was no pace car deployed. Shouldn't there be one or are the server rules yet to be updated?

 

[TobiasR]

Yeah, I think we need an rF2 savvy admin to reset change some things on the server... right now isn't showing real names and a bunch of AI's on the server as well...

Do have a question for future oval nights, would it be possible to do on Thursdays? I usually work on the wednesdays but had a sh*tload of fun today

GTX 760

 

[Stefan Woudenberg]

This was FUN!

Started as 10th drove to 1st, made a pitstop, had a spin drove back to 3rd, was 3 Liters of fuel short to keep 3rd...splash and dash... Dropped to 5th, but could get in 4th just before the last left turn.
It was a blast.

Thanx for the fun evening guys!

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Had an absolute blast tonight guys. That was a lot of fun to finally race some ovals again at RD. Mooooooooaaar
