    Looks superb! Were the tires textures updated as well? Cause they sure jumped to my eyes when I caught glimpse of them.

    Handle nice! I tried the ultra low downforce setting on belgium, and with default settings it's undrivable... maybe with some tweaks to setup would make it drivable, but the normal version on belgium handles just perfect!

    As it's late, I couldn't put the volume up much, so will be able to tell the difference tomorrow in the sounds :) The sounds at startup and idle did seems to sound meaner, not sure yet!

    Keep up the good work!

    Low downforce is only used at Monza in real life, it's HARD to drive.

    FFB feels very similar to what it was before and I don't have a problem with that (2.5 degrees Castor ;) ). Decided to use a bit of smoothing on my wheel and bumped the FFB slightly.

    I did notice that the default setup has asymmetrical Camber settings even though symmetrical is checked .


    Thanks for the update :)

    It's just a toggle that lets you change both when checked and when unchecked, each side individually. It's not a reliable indicator for whether a set actually is symmetrical or not.

    So i drove some laps at Silverstone but i'm getting a lot of rattling now on my G25 even with filtering at 32(*kerbing and off track)!

    Ive got profiler at 107% overall and tried all different combinations of spring, damper, centering spring and allowing game to change settings too but nothing made the rattling any better. I kept car specific at 1.4 throughout to give good weight through the fast corners which could maybe be lowered a bit with some spring and damper which gave me a weightier feel but low speed corner ffb is barely even there so i'd rather not have to reduce it any. Anyone else getting this or is it my problem alone?

    Even with the rattling i'm still really enjoying driving the F2, another great update thanks!

    Also Tim i was wondering if the power boost for F2 is still going to be added at some point and will the DW12 be released with push to pass?

    Having Monza spec upgrade only makes sense if we have Monza, right? Can we hope for ISI track? rF1 had very good Monza GP circuit. And Nurburgring GP also, maybe?

    although maybe not that easy to attain, you could try to get the conversion by I think McNolo, but not sure.. Good looking conversion if you ask me
