    rfactor 2 uses 4 lines to manage the rpm limiter. With the 4 lines you can add the injection cut perfectly:

    Nice info, thanks.

    Damn I love this car. It does tend to really loose the rear (stock setup) if you are too aggressive under corner-entry and mid-corner, can be very sensitive in this regard if pushing. I found that being real slow, and slightly hesitant on steering application really helps, also, really managing the brake and throttle inputs. Holding or adding some throttle, even while corner-entry to mid -corner phase, can really help stablize things.

    The car is an absolute joy around Essington. This should be the next hotlap challenge. The fastest version (695 Evo?) at Essington with stock setup. Great!!

    Exactly as a FWD car with a race set-up should react!

    @Spinelli: Are you waiting for an answer by me? The fastest class is the 695 Evo, right. Then please, feel free to do whatever you like: I'm happy to see several mates enjoying these little cars.

    I'm stuck at 1.47.xxx on Sao Paulo with the 695 Evo's standard ffb and car setup. Unfortunately i don't feel at home at all, but that seems not to be the fault of the car itself. I'll see if i can find some settings to improve it for me, and of course thank you for your efforts.

    @Spinelli : "It does tend to really loose the rear (stock setup)"

    How vanilla a setup can be for him when it looses the rear under normal conditions :rolleyes:

    Yes, "stock", "default", "vanilla", pretty much all mean the same thing :) . The stockcars are coming soon, don't you worry :)

    ------

    BTW, did you have the same odd feeling about the steering alignment of this car as me ? When driving the car at step speed with max steering lock, such as out of the box that the steering doesn't aligns back to the center and that you need to correct it by yourself. Once the car has some speed there is no such a problem, but with max steering lock which i need to drive out of the box in Sao P. i have to correct the steering, otherwise i would crash into the garages on the left side. I tryed many different ffb settings but nothing helped. :confused:

    That's what FWD cars with very sharp steering lock and caster set-up for racing feel like. You don't need to adjust your settings.

    That tendency to not return to centre under power, even out on the track, is why purists would never want a FWD race or sports car, but also why it can be fun "fighting the wheel" if you like them or are stuck racing them (because 95% of small road cars are FWD now). The old days were so much fun (e.g., GTL '60's and '70s) when you had FWD and two versions of RWD (front engine and rear engine) to choose from. All completely different characteristics on the track.

    Really, that is somewhat unbelievable for me when i look at the steering angle, steering lock and tires width, apart from the fact the geometry is similar to the street version, but for now i'll believe you because i can't prove the opposite. Thank you. ;)

    edit: ok i see the car uses a steering angle 36° per side maybe that is the reason for this behaviour. 72° Is this correct for such a car ?
