Fastest car in GTLegends by
Jeff Reid
Looks like it's the Porsch 906 so far, at least at Spa, it's the
only car I can go sub 2:50 lap times with. Others are close, in
the low 2:50's, like the GT40 or the BMW.

Jeff Reid
The Formula makes quick work of this track, similar to Monaco
with F1C99-02, you spend a lot of time in 1st gear.

Help with GPL Kyalami by
Jeff Reid
My goal is to get a sub 1:20.50, but my best so far is a 1:20.75, and I seem to vary betwen low 1:21's to 1:22's.
Looking for help or advice. I using a setup very similar to the GH1 setup for Kyalami. I've been messing with this for
about 3 days and seem to have hit a wall. It's a struggle just...

GPL - question for alexti or any GPL expert by
Jeff Reid
I occasionally do sessions with GPL, working on improving my
rank, 1% at a time per track. Trying to get sub 99% now (just below
negative). Current rank is -12, but a lot of that is due to an 8:15.32
at Nurburg (wanted to join the 500 second club so started up again
with GPL about a month...

Interesting videos by
Jeff Reid
Can't change the past, but maybe I can make up for all the RSC
complaining with some links to interesting videos:
0 to 6400mph in 6 seconds (with sudden stop).
It's a rocket sled world record. Click on the picture to see the video.
Note how long and narrow the rocket flame gets near the end of...

Racing Game Videos by
Jeff Reid
Sort of a hobby of mine, but if you're interested in what a game
you don't own actually looks like in action these should interest you.
Some of these are multi-view videos (like a cockpit view on top
and chase view on the bottom, in the case of GPL, Greg Stewart at Rouen).
The standards like GPL,...

RSC, why was Legends Central delted? by
Jeff Reid
Under: "Why don't other sites care about the things we do?"
Maybe they didn't have their site deleted once due to a mistake by a site member? That happened to RSC (then Legends
Central) in 2001. We also have a good relationship with some publishers and developers simply because of the rules...

RSC moderators - what is the purpose of the public warnings? by
Jeff Reid
What is the purpose of publicly attacing warning icons to all
posts made by a member? Is this not an attempt to punish, or
in other words, to cause some level of "harm" to the victim
of your public warning policy?
Why isn't this public warning policy included in the new member
agreement so the new...

RSC's warning system, racist? by
Jeff Reid
Note the colors they chose for their infractions.
Is this a form of racism?
yellow - minor offense - a reference to Asians?
red - major offence - a reference to North American and other Indians?
black - extreme offence and banned - a reference to Africans?
Why not use non-race associated...

RSC - how not to get banned by
Jeff Reid
Don't mention anything about rec.autos.simulators, or
RSC's public warning system. It appears that any RSC
member that does so is accused of being me (or a friend of
mine) and is instantly banned.
By my count, there is 1 banned, and 2 instanbanned(?) members
for posting about rec.autos.simulators,...

Favorite car in rFactor? by
Jeff Reid
Mine's the formula car. At Toban GP track, it only took about a
dozen laps or so to the learn the track well enough to get sub 1:15's,
down to 1:13's now. Shaving another second off my lap times will require
really learning the car, the track and proper braking points. After that,
it's probably...

How long before there's a Nordschleife for rFactor? by
Jeff Reid
I'm down to sub 1:10's in the forumla car at Toban GP track
(this is the longest one distance wise). A longer track
like Spa (around 1:45 lap time) or Nordschliefe (around
5:50 lap time with 1984 and later layout) will be nice.
I'm basing my times on F1C99-02 RH2004 mod, which has
a similar feel to...

rFactor - fastest way within the game to earn cash by
Jeff Reid
Has anyone figured this out? Which factors affect the amount
of cash won during an event? Number of AI cars? Strength of
AI cars? Difficulty level? Number of laps? Length of track?
How long would take to earn 2.1 million within the game?
I'm not counting using the ISI_BABYFACTORY cheat code.

Grand Prix Legends steering bug / issue? by
Jeff Reid
I recently started playing GPL again, on a newer system. What I'm noticing is
that the virtual steering wheel in GPL doesn't exactly match my controller inputs.
For example, while on the main straight at Kyalami, I hold the controller wheel
still, but the virtual in car steering wheel will move...
