    Hello all,

    I'm a bit confused, because I keep noticing that older mods (especially URD PX1 Darche, Rebellion, Alpine, ASR old Formula 1 mods) react really strangely. These must be broken somehow. Impossible to turn or crazy sudden oversteer. As if there were no ground contact. No drivability.

    As a former racing driver in various Junior Formula series, I can judge this reasonably well.

    Anyone have more details or info on this issues?

    Thank you very much!

    Just to check, this is in the main game, rather than devmode? (devmode allows you to switch to the .tbc tyres, and that makes a mess of handling - and it doesn't (didn't?) reset when you start devmode again, so you can forget you've done it)

    All Main Game. Try for example the URD PX1 Darche. It is undriveble :( Same with Rebellion and Alpine) :(

    I've just tried the Alpine 480 LMH and it works fine for me. I have to move the brake bias forward a bit or the rear will break loose under high braking, but it's the same as with many other mods. Anyone else can reproduce the issue?

    I didn't notice it. I have driven these cars very sparsely but I don't think I felt anything different. I'm not too skilled so maybe I was driving them too slow.

    Which tracks have you tried? I tried in the new Albert Park 2022 in the Workshop.

    Ok, because there were some issues with older builds, if you were still using an old one, it's possible the issue is with that.

    In the Beta tab of the Steam properties you can choose to stay on older versions.

    @Michael Woller can you check your rF2 betas tab as above, and confirm you're on "none" ?
