I don't have any engine sounds on Abarth with new skins. The default Abarth still has engine sounds. I've tried deleting the Abarth folder and dropping in a fresh one from my Steam copy, but when I load the skin pack (unpack to desktop and drop into main game folder) it's still the same. Sorry in advance if I'm being a numpty..... AGAIN!

 

[Rupe Wilson]

will check it out.

@Denis Betty

Abarth sounds pack (Download)
all you do is unpack it and run the program and point it at your main gtl folder and install it.
its a .exe that you run this will give you the updated sounds for the Abarth. this is already installed in my pc so i did not see the problem its the same as the sounds pack for the Abarth TCR that we use..
Sorry i did not notice this...

We might have this problem, with a few of the skins but im sure i can find the sound packs just shout out if you have no sound for a car..

That was a lot of fun. Hope to do it again.

Yes it was very good fun. A bit of an unexpected match, those cars, but it worked out really well!!
Glad I got to drive the Brick Jag first, as its sluggishness made me enjoy the agility of the Abarth in R2 even more!

Driving the Jag around here was pretty good fun too, but to me it always feels more like cruising around than racing. My pace was not bad at all, could follow Josh around for some laps while trying to keep Jack behind, failed eventually but it was fun watching Jack and Josh battle. Then the non-qualifying staff guys came flying by as my tires were starting to go.. so did Rupes so I could stay ahead but Steven in his Abarth was no match. So no podium but some good fun!

P2 the Abarth was not easy, in fact I didn't complete a single lap without crashing, and was 10 sec slower than the next guy at P2 end. Even crashed in my Q2 outlap, but the timed lap was near perfect and got me pole!! Yay!!
In R2 I had a very good start, and some troubles behind me in L1 soon gave me a comfy gap. But then Rupe came closing in in his Abarth, and we had a really good battle where he was faster on some parts of the track but wasn;t on others. I even manage to make no (big) mistakes while defending So at the end, I managed to take the win with a whoping 0,1 sec margin! That was some brilliant racing.

Thanks all for racing, and TY to the staff as usual. And welcome @Josh Morrell, glad you enjoyed yourself, please come join us again!
