    Not a fan of the F-Extreme rework, but the others are excellent especially the Lancer. Also I'd like to congratulate the MR18 on having the most colourful dash in sim racing.

    Congratulations for the steam come back and for this update :)

    I haven't had the chance to try it yet, but have you improved the downshifting protection as it was really agressive on many cars i tried on 0.871r ?

    F-Extreme's dash is good but has an issue. The new info is great but the font is hard to read and looks like its been squished in some way. Doesn't feel very functional for people with wider FOV. I've been wanting them to update that readout for a while ever since the lap number counter was stuck at single digits. Its progress overall.

    Also the F-Extreme feels a lot less stiff than before and more like it was in SCE. Brakes also feel much better but could be higher overall grip as well, dunno possibly placebo.

    @Renato Simioni did you guys do anything to the flatspotting? Feels like with the F-Extreme's tires (haven't tested elsewhere) that its impossible to make them undrivable from vibrations even if I'm spending a lap flatspotting on purpose. At no point could I feel like I couldn't stay out if I had to. I feel like it might have been much more severe in previous versions.

    Final note. Kinda prefer some of the new liveries. A few of them have catchy colours.

    I wouldn't say so, have you seen the Toyota TS040 in pCARS? It has a KERS bar that changes color from green to red when you activate it, plus some other pretty colors for water&oil temp, lap times etc. :p
    Nice update, can't wait for the full release : 3

    Sorry to see that the AMS skins had to be changed - I actually liked them a good deal - but fantastic job on the new skins guys!
