    Hi, I tried to look for this in the search function but since "BMW M3 GTR" is made of words with only 3 characters or less, the search function gives an error :D

    In the game, the BMW M3 GTR is shown as having a Sequential gearbox. However, the car had an H-pattern 6-speed gearbox, as can be seen on footage from 2004 below:

    (timestamp from 8:12)



    I am wondering if the fact that it says "Sequential" in the game has any influence on how the gearbox performs in the game (in terms of code) or if it actually does not matter and all cars have "instant" gear-shifts, and that text is merely for information? Just thought it would be worth having a look :)

    Thank you for the amazing game and for the continuous progress you're making on it!

    How does one set the number of track cuts before a penalty in custom championships? Obvious in race weekend, not so in championships.

    Guys, maybe you can help me - did the game support Side Draft? I drive the most time GT 3 / GTE-cars and if i drive (on a straight) really close to the side of an AI-car i became advantage of the AI-car - this falls a little bit back and i can mostly overtake. Happend this because of the effect of the Side Draft or is this just because of the AI-cars are "fearful" in their behaviour?

    I hope you understand me, i find it difficult to translate into English...;(

    Hmmmm ok, i dont drive formula cars so i have no clue.

    "...while GT cars probably will have less effect overall" - i dont agree, i feel definitely an effect.

    You obviously will feel it, but formula cars from some very aero dependent eras will be a significant magnitude stronger in effect.

    I have a question regarding the latest updates: when I run a race session and select "medium rubber" for the track during qualifying, and then choose "default progression" for the race itself, does the track state reset to zero, or does it continue on from the qualifying session? Thanks.

    Yes, qualify, race 1 & race 2 will continue the rubbering from the previous session if set to default progression. Only training will start green if set to it.

    I've searched but.... I have conspit pedals with vibration ad on. When watching a replay, the vibration gets replayed as well (vibrators are vibrating during replay). Is there a way to stop this? Thx

    Replays have the bug that they send out TCS = On in the Shared Memory, so if you got hardware setup for vibration or LEDs on this they will stay always on in the replay. It's bug, hopefully they can fix it at some point (just like TCS is always falsely signaled when you're driving against the pit limiter)
