    I installed the DX11 beta and re-subscribed to the Howston G4 and G6 vehicles as directed. I encountered stuttering (another issue for another time) with the DX11 install. The G4 and G6 worked fine in the DX11 install, except for the stuttering issue.

    I returned to the DX9 install and cannot get the Howston G4 and G6 cars back. I tried unsubscribing and re-subscribing, quitting Steam and rF2 after each unsubscribe. When I re-subscribe, Steam shows a very quick download, much too quick for the actual content. I suspect it's downloading a "pointer" file, but not the content. The Launcher doesn't show the G4 or G6.

    Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    does anyone notice the howston lights aren't like the dx11 (shiny) rear brake lights. they still seem like old lights. bit dull.

    I think the only Howston updated was a 1968 variant of the car. Weren't the originals 66ish?

    You're welcome, we apologise for the delay in getting the cache updated in the stable version. For the next content update we'll make sure we have both available at the same time (some technical glitch prevented us from doing that on Monday).

    I was thinking the car updated for dx11 was a new car completely, i.e 1968 model, vs(what I thought) was the original based on 1966. I have been remiss in not double checking that.
