That doesn't mean it will rain, they use live weather forecasting, so it means if it rains at the location it will rain.

100% chance of rain?! Not experienced wet in rfactor yet! 

Hope the test race goes well! I’m yet to experience rain apart from a few laps on slicks.
Hopefully the race won’t be wet

 

[The Wayfaerer]

how was the practice race earlier today?

 

[Tom]

Awful for me I hit 2 landmines and had an unsafe amount of fps stuttering, so I retired after 2 laps.

Yeah it was not bad Stokemon and me finished the race, Si crashed out and got stook on a barrier and could get off it, bettenberg quit due to his VR graphic's settings not being right and steveg, kman, jonno, james and manu didn't race

Dam, cant do Saturday either due to work . Liveries will be finalised tonight and ready for you to upload @Darksi

 

[The Wayfaerer]

i might be doing the Sunday test race but i can't say it for sure at the moment

 

[Darksi]

I will be on for the Sunday race but cant make the Saturday race either.

 

[Elodyr]

Will participate in Saturday's race for sure and if possible also on Sunday.

 

[Stokemon]

I should be able to attend Saturday. 100% can not race Sunday however.

 

[The Wayfaerer]

it seems like i won't be able to do tomorrow's pracitce race, but i will be here today afternoon/evening for practice and also tomorrow evening

 

[Stokemon]

Practice race report: I qualified with a 2.03.6 which placed me 8th on the grid. Race was going very well, worked my way up to 5th with 5 mins to go. Lacked some focus and spun on the 2nd to last lap however which ended an admins race and spoiled mine. Finished 7th in the end.

Note: I managed 1 hour exactly on 100l of fuel and 1 set of tyres. I did some small lift and coast in the middle of the stint to be sure however.

@Battenberg had issues with VR again, he can update on those.

Yep, dangerous stuttering in thick traffic, at its worst in the forest sections.

yup even struggling now on a practice session.

 

[The Wayfaerer]

@Battenberg i've uploaded a setup that i started to make tonight to the resources
The setup itself is more on the aggressive side as i went for a bit lower DF, i also was able to keep the tire wear a little bit under a control
On low fuel however it feels quite sketchy, we might have to try to fix that
