Tracks Virginia International Raceway 1.1

[Rigel]

I actually "free"-rided around the track on the full course at first. Which ment I sometimes had to put it in reverse to not get sent back to pit for driving the wrong way

Shame, you could have turned the penalties off

Yeah, I wasn´t too bright

No. Online only cares about the surfaces.ini

Thank you

Hi @Albert McSaltens
Thanks fo rthe input.

I will say that turn 5 is a very weird turn IRL. You don't realize how off-camber it is until you lift and feel the rear end lose more traction than you are expecting. I've seen many street and race cars lose it there. In fact, when the track got wet the other weekend, it was almost comical watching every other GS/ST car driving off into the grass at that turn.

As far as 2/3, I can also see some camber changes in this dashcam video

(not mine), but would honestly be surprised if it matched up perfectly, since we aren't laser-scanned. But looks pretty good to me.
The Turn 3 apex is my most-missed. So hard for me to hit that one correctly IRL. Feels like a tractor beam is pulling me away from it. Might have something to do with some camber, but probably a lot more to do with my awkward positioning after Turn 2.

All of that said, watching the videos side-by-side, I don't see anything that jumps out as totally wrong. It feels good to me vs my experience (which is by no means definitive, but I did jump into AC ASAP after my real track sessions). More importantly, I put a much more experienced VIR racer/driver in my seat, and he didn't mention anything about those particular turns being wrong. In fact I was paying close attention to him going into the Snake because it is so tricky, and he said to himself "Yep. There it is."

We'll never get things 100% correct, but I feel very very good about how this VIR drives.

(keep FOV differences in mind for these comparisons)

I'ld like to add that my friend was very impressed with our VIR, but he was also amazed by Assetto Corsa. Kept saying he couldn't believe how real the handling felt. So, good job Kunos as well.

Hi

Usually Green or Fast surface, Clear to cloudy, ~25 to 32c, depending on my mood. Gets hot in Summer, and this build looks like June to August to me.

Hallo
You have a Weather Mod,where can i dowload it ?

 

[Torcano]

Oh boy, I went on an exploratory mission because I saw an road heading out of the pits and got curious... ended up bumbling into a nice looking house a couple miles down the road. Wow, the detail in this track is just next level.

 

[Dave_6]

Not sure what tires are on it, but I'll see if I can get close to the same time tonight.

Sorry, I don't use one. The video I posted is real footage.

My brain simply won't turn on; I have found a few of these:

But I have no idea where any kind of code to unlock things are.

 

[Rigel]

You need something like this:

About the darkness issue. Don't worry guys, we're working for you. A screenshot from the latest build to show some progress:

Explore Michael. Unlock those install folder .exes

Yayyy, found the Oak Tree; thanks @Rigel

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

How many poly's is that tree; my fps takes a dump through there now. (still worth it to have that glorious tree though)

 

[LilSki]

Just about done sorting this whole thing out. Here are some shots with cars.

 

[SportRotary]

Managed to put together a decent lap in the BMW GT2 car. Only a 1:48, so still way off of the GTLM pace from this year.

And a little motivation from the race a couple of weeks ago:

Something new every time on this track. Didn`t even notice that TG trailer until seeing that screenie from LilSki.

I tried to find that villa spot today. Used the free cam just zooming around looking at stuff when I found it.
Was a FPS like feeling, almost expected an achievement "You Found the Villa"

Great shot!

You have 4 VIP.exes in the track folder. Start the exe, see the clue, go to the track and find the boards containing the password. Go back to start the exe and follow the instructions.

lol ok I'll go find this treasure!
