hey Jav! you live in Florida and I live near harrisburg P.A., but you go buy gmt? don't you mean EST?

 

[Jav]

Lol! it actually says GMT-5, I just never fixed it after GTP's update about a year ago!

 

[Roush_fan_99]

Voted yes on your idea Jav, I like it 👍

I tried to practice for an rFactor endurance event today after about two weeks off of it and 2 weeks on iRacing. It felt so different. The FFB. I couldnt feel anything. It was just like a tough wet noodle...The only thing rFactor 1 has in the ffb better is the rumble strips. The wheel actually rumbles haha. But other than that I come to appreciate iRacing ffb alot more. I can actually feel when there is lockup or understeer as the wheel starts to get light

You'd be surprised at how little you actually feel rumble strips in real life.

 

[superbike81]

Do you use RealFeel in rFactor? That improves the FFB IMMENSELY.

I did only drive mazda's on road courses. I wanted to try oval today using a 900 legend cae from the '30's. Wenever i am standing still or in the pitlane my wheel is shaking non stop. I can't hold the steering wheel. Is this normal becaus it does not feel normal.

 

[Roush_fan_99]

Yes, it's an exaggeration of the car shaking, once you start rolling it'll stop

 

[Maxitsu]

waw, Trying to stop a wild T500 is not something good you know.

 

[Roush_fan_99]

I know, don't force it, Just put it in gear and start rolling and it should stop

Ok guys! Just created the league and points system for it! sent some invites out to most of you, if I didn't send one your way please send a request to join and I;ll add you as soon as I get the request! The league's name is GTPFIA.

You race for real right? Is that because you're going so fast you basically "skim over" the rumble strips or am I talking crazy?

Can you post a run down on it please?

Cars, tracks, times, etc

 

[Jav]

No schedule yet, still on the testing stafes to get the Ford GT and Cadillac balanced out!

I'm in.

 

[Jav]

Thank you Rob! Forgot to mention, we will be starting off with the GTPFIA Sports Car Championship wich will be a 2 class series using the Riley DP on the Daytona Prototype class and the Ford GT/Cadillac CTS-VR on the GT class, the initial goal is to get 8 Daytona Prototypes and 16 GT cars. As the field and entry list grows we will try to mantain the ratio of 1 DP to 2 GT cars.
As I said earlier we are still on the testing stages to ensure the best balance of performance possible for the GT class, as I host sessions I'll post them here to get as many people in as possible into those sessions and get as much data as we can before kicking off the official season!

No need, just log into your account and you'll see the invite! Also hosted session going up! Ford GT vs Cadillac at Spa, please jump in and let's get some laps in!

 

[OLDSKOOLACURA]

I would have to buy some things, but I would be interested in the GT class

What would be a potential track list. I scrapped together some money so I could buy the Ford and Star Mazda then get 4 more tracks.

I have all the main american road courses. If we do ovals I have Daytona. And I may get indy in this collective buy right now but other than that I dont have many ovals besides the ovals that came for free. I dont want them either lol.

 

[Mac K]

The Season 3 schedule is out for those who are interested. The rookie season looks mighty tasty on the road side, CTS-Vs, Miatas, and Inracing Challenge? Sounds like a blast.

 

[ErikAndre71]

We know

Tracklist would look something like this:

1) Daytona 2.4 hrs
2) Silverstone 60 min
3) Road America 60 min
4) Suzuka 60 min
5) Mosport 60 min
6) Spa 90 min

 

[Blaze_409]

I now own the Star Mazda! Added some international tracks.
Silverstone
Motegi
then got Infineon and the Brickyard as well.
To answer that after we got kicked Jav.
I think I could have driven faster in the Cadillac. The Cadillac was good braking and maybe a little better than the ford braking. The Ford pulled away in Eau Rouge and in blanchimont but I think I could change some settings in the differential to make the Cadillac better because I didnt like how it felt when had to get off the throttle.

And then there is the issue of having too high tire pressures. I think i may have messed with the bump settings and that caused the car too be too low.. But once I get the pressure back down to 20psi I will try it. I dont think I'm that good yet so lets get more GTP'ers testing!
