REPLACED Chevy Corvette C6.R GT2 Released

I didn't like this this car on a first run...but after driving it for some hours, I'm in love!

 

But set the ffb to 1.8 kills the ffb! it makes the ffb too "full", too filled! today I made a lot of tests and finally I found a proper setup that fit with my driving style, but I have to agree with Hedlund that the rear is too slippery in the low speed!
I hope the ISI doesn't return to the old simulation concept " hard is simulative" or "slippery is simulative" !
I say it again, endurace cars shouldn't be a difficult to drive specially the modern endurance car !

 

I find the rear and the brakes just impossible to predict on this car. I have tried every brake bias/pressure/balance there is and the car just wont stop in a straight line. It stops like a 60's Corvette, which is saying something.

I lose the rear end coming out of a corner, 1/4 throttle going in a straight line.

 

Maybe your right I don't know lol. But, I found at default setting my wheel had no resistance, and I was barely feeling any feedback. At 1.8 it feels like I have a steering wheel in my hands, and I can tell when front end locks or rear goes loose.

1.8 works well for me, but perhaps a lower setting, like 1.4 would be better for you.

 

Soften springs a few clicks front and rear. Take a couple of clicks of rebound out of the rear dampers. That should get you started. Oh...and actually treat the tires with respect and you'll be amazed what the car will do... ;-). Like someone said earlier, "this isn't FORZA".

 

I don't understand why you bring fms or GT5 in this 3d but I can tell you that GT5 has many cars that are so difficult to drive and the same thing in Shif, but that doesn't make them more simulative than rF2!

 

Hey m8 try lowering your cockpit fov so u can just see the shift light at bottom of screen, this really helped me get a feel for the car i know whats doing now from visual a sense from how the front squirms about going light then digging bck in in turns &crests ect . give it a try it may help.

 

Heres my fov, i use single screen 38fov but i move the seat forward View attachment 6071

 

Hi baked bean! thanks for your advice but I have already set my FOV to 20(I have a triple screen and I always use a low FOV)! however now and after 4 days of testing I can finally drive this car! I made 1'22.1 at Med-Ohio that gave me the pole postion(online race)! I know that it isn't a great lap time, but I'm getting better and at least now i can feel the car!

 

Good stuff dude glad your getting the hang of the vette shes very rewarding if you treat that thing right GTR is felling good now days too.

 

In my opinion it is very important to get the FFB right. Otherwise i can not feel what the car is doing and what the car wants me to do.
This Video wants to show something different, but you can see me drifting a little bit with the Barber. That´s impossible for me when i get the wrong feedback from the FFB. No Aids of course, except autoclutch.

If you want i can make a video with the Vette on Mills Loop C or something. Not easy to be fast, but predictable and fun to drive.

An online lap at Med-ohio:

 

Can someone show me a picture of the real vette where the rear-end looks like the model we have!?

I could be wrong but is the rear of the ISI car different than the real thing?

Should it be this one?

 

I show you a whole gallery:
http://www.motorsport.com/alms/photos/main-gallery/?sz=6&d=331&y=2009&s=2&p=2

And yes, it's exactly the one you posted. It's the ALMS GT2 2009 spec represented by ISI's version.

The rear-end looks really odd, but that's how it were back then. Good is that it changed for better on the following years, but sadly the one we got is the black sheep.

 

Here's a pic from that gallery. I had actually just found out what the 3 dots are for on the door panels, to show if the car is in the top 3 at night, pretty cool.

 

Nice one Hectari... I always wondered what those three lights were for too.

 

Cool pic Hectari.

So theres 12+ GT challange cars that have the lights on at any given time.

 

...hmmm...

the diffuser should go up and not straight... that makes it looks so different...

 

That's pretty cool indeed.

BTW, does anyone know if the glow-in-the-dark number stickers already work on rF2's version?

If doesn't, ISI any plans?

 

Whoa! Shocking finish! Just read that Bergmeister(Porsche) didn't get a penalty for driving Magnussen into the wall and kept 1st place.

Yeah looks like the model we have, that video is from the last race of the 2009 season so should be but will need someone in the know to confirm.
