    Hey stidio 397, great job at the spa track. Bought it and play it.
    By the way I see there's a go kart track modeled inside somewhat in Blanchimont sector, any chance to be able to enjoy that circuit in go karts as an additional layout for karts?
    Thank you.

    Time to learn Motec. That will show anywhere your car is dragging.

    Are people going flat through Radillon in the GT3 cars? I was on the server for a bit, people doing 2:14s but if I want to go flat I have to pile wing on. Otherwise I am making great friends with the tyre barrier up there!

    I would guess that is true. I was passed on the straight with ease so it is clear his exit speed was much faster than mine. Also I had gone thru ER fairly tidy(for me) Pretty much stock setup tho. And, I was nowhere near 2:14. I will say there will be a timing problem with the endurance track. They start on the downhill run and that makes the first lap about 6 to 8 seconds shorter than if we were all behind the GP starting location.

    Actually no... the mirrors are default, as you can see in this photo taken inside the pits, the tool box and laptop are reflected but the colors are washed out.

    I'm lifting slightly in ER with my 650 setup.

    And yeah, I did a 2:13.3 in the last race I took part in. And it's as you say- because of the timing starting long after the actual line which is on the GP pit straight.

    Awesome track. Very different immersion level than I was used to in AC. Feels like you are actually surrounded by the world haha Lighting is really awesome, and track is modeled cleanly and feels really sound. The road features are really awesome, certainly lives up to laserscan label.

    I have few feedback criticism points:
    • Guardrails seems bit strangely too differently shaded in night;
    • Tarmac at the grid seems to be missing anti slip groove cuts;
    • I HATE THE REPLAY CAMERAS IN RF2. Why they always has to be so few different camera choices, and when you shuffle through different camera sets they turn to be practically same cameras, same positions, same FOV, same everything. Why it is common practice in rF2 ? I want kool shots, kool camera sets, not only just to see cars. I also would love to know which camera set I have turned on, because it is hard to say when most cams are identical per each set...

    Cameras are made to match real life TV broadcasts.

    HELP!
    I tried to purchase Spa but Steam put the funds into my Steam Wallet.
    How do I get the track with funds from my Steam Wallet?
    Thanks!

    Again, like all of the last tracks (sebring, nürburgring, portland and silveestone) (except zandvoort) this is a masterpiece! Feels great and looks awesome in every detail!! Best Spa out there i would say...

    But please please, as mentioned from mantastig... do something with that total ugly, 90's replay system... It is a shame how the replay cams (allways) perform. the whole replay system is totaly low budget and this is something the guys out there see in livestream events and so on... please give it some love! Let us change the cams in a comfortable way, let us really change DOF, the position of the cam on track and so on...

    Just buy it in Steam. Go to the rF2 workshop and look near the top, there is a button to link to the rF2 Steam store. I had about $4.45 in my Steam wallet, I had to add some, to have enough to purchase the track. Sounds exactly like your situation. Worked simply and well.

    Spa looks amazing in game thanks....another great addition by 397 but when I try an offline race with 50 gt3 cars (yes 397 dlc cars) it is absolute AI carnage on lap 1 with crashes slides and spins at every second corner pretty much kills any immersion :-( spa is about 24 hours and endurance races with big fields, I have never had this issue at Nurburgring or Le Mans and I have raced 60 cars at both. I had my AI aggression at 10 i have spoken to a couple of mates who have had the same experience is this a known issue? If so how was it not picked up in testing... offline users do seem to be lower on 397 priority list sometimes

    it's what I wanted to know, how is the AIW ?
    Since the Azure AIW, I don't support any DLC if they don't work at 100%.
    I was fooled with the Azure DLC, but never again.
