I Want To See Nascar Grow In Rfactor 2

The tire model needed an update. That engineer was pulled off that to do some things deemed more important (still with rF2) and then went back to that tire model change. So there was effectively a delay caused by that.

 

To be frank, the tires on the DW12 are not correct, and possibly should have held it up.

There are also multiple karting tracks and a roadcourse on the one release of this 1.5 mile oval.

 

Sounds great Tim.

I really hope the work on the tire model is coming a long OK. From.....other sims.....I can only guess that this is a long and extremely complex task. I hope the guy(s)? working on it are seeing light at the end of the tunnel

 

Tim, Is the Gen6 template you released a few months ago still relevant?

 

Should be for one of the models, yes, SMALL adjustments I assume for others.

 

A little long while ago there were previews of the cars posted, as well of a track. It makes sense the track is that ISI fictional we were shown.

Given the last communications we've seen, it is probably one of two reasons (realroad being the other) why it - Gen6 - hasn't been released. I cannot wait for the tires to be addressed too, I remember mentioning it sometime in 2013.

 

Thank you for the update

 

Does this also apply to the road course version?

 

Tim has said the tire changes will apply to all cars but mainly to conform with oval racing tire loads so the effect will be less.

(I'm sure Tim said something along those lines, please correct me of wrong)

 

man, have I been looking forward to another karting track I really like the karts in rF2, but the track not so much (especially because of the chicane). And oval might be nice with some of the current cars, but will see about that

I thought the fictional track was a copy of Daytona called Jacksonville Speedway. I never heard before any postings of a fictional 1.5 mile raceway. Unless you know something I missed before?

Edit: I had to dig to find the sentence that announced the 1.5 mile track. I don't read the rF2 forums that much so I can't be part of the rF2 "sense" but I was hoping that ISI allowed another studio to create an oval track in the Sao Paulo style. I know the actual track mods will eventually come but one good name track would really bring in the oval racers.

 

You missed something. Mountain Peak, see videos: http://rfactor.net/web/rf2/videos/

edit: now it's released, LOL. See http://isiforums.net/f/showthread.php/23468-Mountain-Peak-Speedway-v1-1-Now-Available.
