Oh dear not again.......if I have too.

Sorry bout that I think I said the quiet bit loud.

We will have plenty of klms under our belts by the time
This rolls round scotty. Lol

Oh forgot I have a skin ready us Scotty. It's on the show and shine. With the 05 on it. Of course.

Smarty pantS

Oh also if any teams want a custom skin done. Happy to offer my services.

Just PM me and will get cracking on them

Mr Adsta has agreed to partner me for this year's event as Butakup will be in UnZud feeding Tim Tams to Pitsy and Co.

Will get back to work on the skins soon.

I certainly have seen the '2 driver teams' call
And love the idea

Is there any lee-way with single drivers ??
I have no problem with a flat out NO

I love the idea in the longer the better
But I honestly fall short of ruining someone elses race and/or having a teammate think alike.
Obviously fully aware of team driving and abilities, but I fall well short of confidence

''''''''
Edit
,,,,,,


If there were single drivers,,,, almost every F$^*%r would
,,,,,,

being a sat night should free me up to run in this one, should be fun to race again with the jff'rs

is this the same fvr mod currently being used in the series, or the latest version ?

It's the latest one Stickey , v 1.98b, Its all on the server already i'll flick it over after monday night.

I'm looking at doing this one too......I just loooove long races. Sent a PM to Typhon to see if we can get the DoubleShot Racing team together again for this one. Already got a skin organised.......happy to add any required logos etc......


Just noticed.....join date 2009.....1st post.....lol.

Just shows you been lurking around Blaky.

Typhon is out (annual day at the races.....he reckons the mayhem in the cutting at the recent ORA 6/24 would be a mild comparison if I let him behind the wheel after a day at the races.....lol) but I'm working on recruiting a new/old driver from the V8SC3 days......he's just got rF and ordered a new G27 so we'll see how he shapes up. He used to be pretty fast back in the day.

Just posted up the skin for Adsta and myself to use in this event...

https://jff-racing.forumotion.com/t903-peter-brock-memorial-show-and-shine#9341

Still working on the early Torana skin on a Commodore for whoever wants it.

Id love to give this a shot, great challenge, just not sure what ill be up to on a saturday night in november.

Will tentatively say yes to this one.

Ok Guys The server will be set to the Peter Brock Memorial race Settings for a couple of weeks then will switch over to the Phillip Island Round....
Standard Skins only are the server at this time of course
Sand Trap fix link and full Bathurst links are in the first post.

Hopefully i have now allowed Passengers and Hot swaps in pits,If there are people on the server can they test this and get back to me pls.

The server practice session is too short Thmpar. I could only do one outlap and timed lap before it rolled to Qualy.

Also, this version of the mod doesn't have user adjustable steering ratio in the upgrades section so it takes a lot more wheel work to get them around corners.. much more realistic for sure.

No worries oldie I'll fix the praccy session latter.

All fixed sorry bout that guys

All good Thump... thanks mate

I'm in this, Butters and me maybe, we can hotswap within 2 feet of each other but it's still a hotswap, hmm the name won't change but that'll be ok eh. I could setup another computer for the night, might be fun.

No objection s here, If anyone has a problem with Butta's and Pitsy doing the Race from one PC please Let me Know.

I can get "the chair" back for buttas if needbees, it has a g27 and a fast computer, Rifty has it atm. then it would be legit eh.

2 foot hot'seat'swap fine by me, or just cramp up Butta's just before your stint and watch Pitsy turn into a puddle

Also, to install this mod. Do we install 1.96 then 1.97 then 1.98B, or what please explain.

http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=FVR%20V8SC%202011

i am in

Hey Rookie thats the way i did it,

ok

Well no idea what is going on with the install all i am getting is a physics miss match, So i have rolled server over for the normal bathurst round till i get it sorted out.

can i join someone team for it

Ok i finally have the 1.98b mod running on the server, It must been a crook patch download from Rfactor central.....I downloaded the last patch from the FVR Mediafire link and all is good now.....

http://www.mediafire.com/?j6enfm7znj4us6k

I'll leave it on the server untill the Weekend.

Hey All,

I might put in a tentative yes to this at the moment.
I'll see if there is anyone who wants to share a ride
with me, otherwise I might put my hand up for a
co-driver slot if someone needs one.

Sounds like a great race. Did the ORA 6/24 earlier in the year
with Young-Joe and loved it. Would be great to get in a V8SC
and do Bathurst.

Also have a skin, it's on an ORSM car, but with a few tweaks
I should be able to transfer it over to FVR. It's the Bill
Patterson 1977 cars. I've done all three, just showing the Chivas/Roberts 26 as an example.




I'll lets youse know soon which way I'll go with own team or
drive with someone else.

Cheers

The #25 Brock/Brock is mine but if I do all three for FVR you're welcome to the Marshall/Van Rooyen #24 or #26 Chivas/Roberts cars

ok

So the try out went ok dayne?

yes

If this event is still happening, Pits and I have joined forces. A bit of Anzac spirit.

Just a quick photoshoot, windows, rims have to be sorted :-)

clever idea Rook, whats being revealed under that zipper

Yes Its still going to happen on the said date......There has been some interesting talk around the new v8factor thought will be looking into it very soon, Maybe putting a vote up to see which people would prefer to run.

When we know which mod I'll start skinning.....

From what I hear the Unleashed mod is a handful to drive competitively... it points nice, but is loose in the rear.. sounds like V8Factor.. and it is. The models look good except for the old interiors still in use... but I do like the sounds.. maybe the Holden sounds a little gamey (?)

The 1.98b version of FVR V8 is good too, it doesn't point so well and has no setup adjustment for steering degrees.. but is a bit more forgiving in the rear end department... the models are good inside and out.

Much of a muchness really.. each has good points and lacking points.

Ok this is personal opinion only, and im not trying to influence others decisions.

I've always felt the unleashed mod was easier to drive than the FVR mod we are using at the moment. Right from the moment I jumped in and raced it the car just felt like i would expect it to, which is usually not the case for v8factor. Definitely had some extra confidence to throw the car around a little bit more just knowing that feel and expectation. Even in some quick races on the EAO server, was able to shadow box another car lap after lap going pretty much full tilt while trying to setup a pass. Still rate it as one of the more satisfying racing experiences ive had mainly just due to the car feeing like i would expect it to. I think the one thing that keep bringing me back to V8FU is it seems like its a more complete polished mod.

I can vouch for the good turn in, as for being loose around the rear its something i havent noticed too much. The old cockpits dont really bother me a great deal

In the end I guess its always going to come back to driver preference, what might be good for some isnt good for others.

I'll drive either mod, don't really have a preference.......I don't really like either of them for different reasons......but I do like endurance racing.....

v8factor

I agree with Knightwolf completely.
V8factor Unleashed
I did a 80 lap race at KSR recently (fuel and tyres set at X2) and it was very drivable.
I can't get enough of this Mod at the moment....
