Happy New Year to you and everyone else too. If you're going out just remember this is an amateur night. I'll be working so I'll be celebrating with a big cup of coffee.

Well Mike. Sorry to hear you wont be able to join us for the Sunday races. But I understand real life > Sim racing. Hope you can join some of the other non-points series races though.

Hope to see you on track in the future.

Welcome to the league Rocket. Well your resume is quite long and impressive. I won a potato sack when I was six or so. I also took first place in the Boy Scouts Pine wood derby when I was in grade school. 3 years in a row. The old man had mostly to do with that I think. Outside of those championships I dont think I've won anything else. I look forward to having another racer ahead of me on the grid.

If you have any questions let us know. If you are planning on joining us for the upcoming APEX Mod GT3 Series let us know which car you plan on using and we'll add you to the roster. You can sign up here:

See you on track.

I have had almost zero time to drive since the update. I got a few laps in on the GT500 server but haven't run the Ferrari yet. Maybe tomorrow.

rFactor 2 General / Nissan GT500 released
« on: December 23, 2016, 05:55:59 pm »
S397 has released the Nissan GT500 for our beloved rF2. It seems having more developers on a team equates to releases much more often than what ISI was able to do. Yay!

Unfortunately Steam is down right now so we can't DL the car. Hopefully soon.

Studio 397 has released their first Steam only Update. If you have not moved to steam you will not be able to get this update. More information can be found here.

The server will be updated at my earliest convenience (I'll try to get to it before I go to work today.)

VRC rf2 fun runs / Re: Fun Run - Miatas at Cadwell Park
« on: December 19, 2016, 11:01:02 am »
Well the races were run. Those who attended the races had a boatload of fun. Those who didn't... well we'll see you all at the first pre-season GT3 Series race on Jan 8th. The results are here:

http://simresults.net/161219-r5m

One thing I wanted to address is the low turn out. Not that I expected massive numbers, but more about what I did in this race and what I will do when we have a particularly low turn out like we did in this race. The race was set for 30 minutes. However, because we only had 6 people show for the race I made an administrative decision to cut the race to 5 laps and have multiple races.

The reason for this was simple. I have run multiple series (not just single races, but multiple races in a complete series') where we had 6 or less racers in 30-60 minute races. There is no fun in that once the grid gets spread out. In these cars particularly once the field spread out there would be no hope of catching the guy in front of you unless he made a significant error. These cars are not nearly powerful enough or draft well enough to make a spread field fun to race. The multiple shortened races made having a bad run ok since you had another race to look forward to. It kept the field together enough to keep it exciting. And as it turned out we had completely different results from each race. (We even did a reversed grid race for **** and grins)

Don't expect me to do this in the GT3 Series because I don't expect we will have a turnout nearly as small as we saw in this race. For those who put in good quality time preparing for a 30 minute race only to be told in the 11th hour that the races would be shortened, I am sorry if you were irritated by the decision. Don't fear that this decision was made for any other reason than to ensure the attendees had the most fun they could in this "Fun Run".

Lets see everyone on the server for the run up to the GT3 Pre-Season and Points series.

Gui you may be jaded by ISI's **** poor development abilitites, but I am hoping rF2 is handled properly by S397.  I am willing to give them some time to flesh out this otherwise fantastic sim. DX11 is a HUGE improvement whether you think it is or not. While it wont instantly make everything look lifelike it will go a long way toward making rF2 less resource intensive and then allow the extra headroom to be used for making the game a little bit prettier.

I agree ISI were not the best caretakers for this sim. I dont think they ever expected to have to actually produce content. They expected the development to be handled by the modding community. But the modding community was not ready to move away from rF1 and found rF2 to bee too bothersome to build for. ISI was stuck trying to create a "Game" they never intended. Gjon's flat refusal to borrow money to hire developers made things even worse.

S397 is a breath of new life for this mishandled piece of software. I am willing to give them some slack and allow them some time to get their **** straight.

I bought the game in 2013 and paid the yearly subscription fee at that time. I continue to pay the yearly subscription fee until this year when I was offered a lifetime sub when I moved to Steam. The offer came because of the amount of yearly subs and I paid would have been roughly equivalent to a lifetime subscription, and they were trying to entice people to go to steam. This was of course before Studio 397 was formed and took over rfactor 2 development. I don't know if they are still making those types of offers but I was advised it was on a case-by-case basis based on how long the game was old and how many yearly Subs were purchased.
