Automobilista 2 V1.3.1.1 & Racin´ USA Pt2 RELEASED - Now updated to V1.3.2.0

1995-1998 feels too close a gap initially, but I guess the same could be said of the Formula Classic Gen 1 & Gen 2.

Personally, I would've preferred something like 1989-90 for the F-USA Gen 1.

 

Michigan would be amazing!

 

Ooh yes a Lola T9000 would be awesome with a stick shift! But I'm sure the T9500 and 95i will be great fun too!

 

No fix for the Reynard mirror?

 

Give it more time... the car is way better than before. It punishes you more for overdriving and is more responsible for throttle. Gave it some laps at Nords and can't say how much more rewarding it is.

Need to fix the left mirror pq parece que deixei no estacionamento e o manobrista me devolveu com ele virado pro chão rs.

Other thing: The Formula V10 is stalling when I stop it in first gear (old issue). Thing is, I have no clutch here.

Abração!

 

Is it just me or are the F-USA cars now not as stuck to the road ? Im missing that lovely bite that made the cars so much fun around Cleveland. It feels like I have to wait longer to get on the throttle going through the fast corners and that satisfying bite of the tyres is kinda gone?

 

To the people complaining the CARTs are (or were) too easy to drive:

IDK, man. None of these onboards (and there are others out there) seem to portrait cars that are "alive". Quite the contrary: the cars seem very tame, understeery as hell, with that weird long gearing and not at all difficult to control on the throttle out of the turns... I'm yet to test today's release so no feedback on how they handle as of right now.

 

Teams (in all series) deploy a lot of money, time and staff expertise to get their race cars to this "safe" state. We would in the sim world, too, if we had to pay for damage to the equipment or suffer personal "damage" from trying to drive a too-twitchy car on the limit.

 

Oh....yes, sorry, the rear middle engine.... oh my god, I was wrong, terrible.
And the side engines are smaller than at the DC-10 / MD-11 (which had winglets, DC-10 didn't have that)

 

Only if you are slooooowwwww lol

Look how much micro-correction this lads did on their wheels.

It's not an easy car in RL.

But the car is much better now (I don't know what you done).

Before this update I didn't loose my car's rear not even once... and I tried to agro the aero balance to the front, mess with very stiff torsion bar, overtoedout the rear tires. But now, even with default setup (that fells like the same numbers in these mentioned sets) I loosed my rear a fell times. It's different now... much more alive and logical. And the differential is responding way better (I also tried to change it in a lot of ways and simply couldn't fell response to my throttle. Even if you didn't change it, now it's better.

PS: Please, do something to the Formula V10 (G1.. can't remember if G2 is the same) clutch for us people with old Drive Force GTs.

Abração!

 

I want a massive Copa Uno Baloon at Cleveland!

 

Agreed... Feels mahusively better than before, nimbler, more responsive and thus more fun!
I don't know what that was with the tires, but yeah, that weird, endless understeer that refused to re-grip seems to be gone.
And consequently, racing the AI was a vastly, vastly better experience this time 'round.
After the release of the RSR '74, I'm also more aware of the honeymoon period where I just need a day or 2 with a car, and must accept that not everything is strap-in-and-on-the-pace-in-two-laps...

 

Is there a timeline when Elkhart Lake will arrive?

 

Ha! Don't worry man, I was being pedantic for fun, and I'm a big 727 nut! I completely agree they should add a 727 parked on the Runway past T3 (Do you hear us Reiza, pretty please!)

It's fairly easy to confuse because FedEx ran 727s And DC-10s/MD-11s - They still fly MD-11s and retired the 727s in 2013. The MD-11 (basically a slightly larger, modernized DC-10 from 1991 on) has two underwing engines and a tail-mounted engine. You can differentiate from the DC-10 because the MD-11 had winglets at the end of the wings, and from the Lockheed L-1011 Tristar, whose rear engine was in the back of the fuselage and the intake was on an s-duct, much like the 727 had.

 

Took the Lola around the ring and it felt fantastic! I really like the changes to the HUD as well.

 

"Death Trap" and "F-Zero" are not the only options here, just saying.

Changelogs are very generic (as they should be).

Mind about sharing this data?

 

Thankyou! Any chance that you can now remove this tyre wear / temp info from the minimal speedo widget? I thought the point of this widget was to simply represent things (speed, revs, fuel) the driver should be able to know by looking around the cockpit.
