    Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see brake temps in garage screen. Sort of surprised nobody has mentioned this before. :D


    Edit: Engine oil and coolant temps as well please.

    Thanks man but that screen shot is too small for me to see. I only get tire temps and pressures up there on the top right.

    Check it when your on the General tab, your currently on the suspension tab in that shot.
    kaptainkremmen's shot is on the General tab.

    Has anyone played with the GUI and found if there are any 'unused gizmos' (to use rF1 terms) ? I think default rF1 did show brake temps, but didn't show the current disc thickness - but the gizmos were there for it and could be added fairly easily. I haven't looked into GUI editing with rF2 at all.

    Will brake temps in garage even be useful?

    Brake temperature is just one of those things best watched with Motec. Realtime display on the HUD also works well.

    You usually want to know how brake temperatures changed in individual corners. This way you can have one corner, where brakes overheat, just to have them at optimal temperatures in other corners.

    So what you're looking for is brake temperature diagram over one lap.

    Yes, I can take a "snapshot" after a long straight or after a group of turns by hitting esc in offline mode. These numbers were available in rF1.

    That I could use motec for but if ISI were to do that, that would be even better.

    Sorry for the off-topic, but it might be useful for someone else if I answer my own question.

    rF2 doesn't appear to be able to generate a list of unused gizmos (rF1 is, by running the AIWCAM editor if I remember correctly), but they seem to all be laid out in the exe and there are none for current brake disc thickness.
