1988 CART - Pre-season Testing

Anyone with a good Lola T88 beginners Set to test? I´m just feeling slow overall. Earlier brake points than with March 88C, much more stable yes, it seems to be predictable but not really fast. I cannot push the car by now. Or is it modwise? Richard Wilks seems to be fast with a 58.6s. Not getting anywhere near that.

Testing at the moment, when testing races the server is closed. You may have a chance to get in when a race is not going on.

We will be testing at Milwaukee soon, using the RexMaysclassic from the USAC mod.

Yes!! nice era, finally mod realesed

Well, an evening of oval testing, these really go nice through lefthand turns. Nothing compared to the '73 cars...

I install tracks and lways I try enter to the server i have mismatches SCN mismatches. I don't know how, because sebring its a exem michigan its a gamedata.

Did you input all the different stats in order to make it work correctly? I think one needs to dig through all the car files and compile all the numbers to get correct values for the RF and Leo FFB.

Use this for Leo's FFB. makes it VERY easy. Point it in the right directory, and it enters all the data from each car for you, and saves the car for swapping later. Useful for a Super Sub

I then change this line in ReelFeel
FFBMixerRealFeelPercent=70.000000

Combines the 2 plugins. It's Ace
Not sure that combination will work with newer versions of ReelFeel tho.

And the 73 cars were built for ovals, imagine how they would go around road courses!

They handle perfectly satisfactory, thank you

Awesome when pushing the limit! This may have been on my fastest lap:

I was talking about the 73's on roadcourses

But great shot

that, I'm really looking forward to seeing these monsters being driven in "anger"

I can't speak for the other tracks, but at Tamiami you will see lots of wheelspin and sliding. Not sure however if it will be fun, because it's as Richard likes to say a "Mickey Mouse track" with lots of 2nd gear accelerations and short bursts from tight corner to tight corner.

Had fun oval testing last night, learned a little, I need to drive these cars more, for sure.

I coudln't steer right, get the cat around the circuit and so on. So if someone has good setting for John and me, I would appreciate that

I don't think any G27 settings will allow you to steer your cat properly around  a road course. You should hire a proffesional pet trainer for that. 

I know what he means about the G27 settings, considering buying another wheel, maybe a Thrustmaster TMX ?, (limited budget) the G27 has been a good wheel though, no breakage problems.

Not the way I drive

As nice as these cars behave in ovals, I find it really difficult to pace them correctly on road and street courses. 'Oh, that was far of the limit - oh, that is still far of the limit - I'm still not on the limit - F***!'

Great, another file to add

Mine's at 90 btw.

But can I use RealFeel and LeoFFB for both F1 '91 and CART '88 the same way? I mean, the CART mod has no RealFeel option in the upgrades.

Also,I should be sure of which files to keep in my '91 install before my mess up the CART one:

Quote :

Under the root folder, I had:

LeoFFB_F1 1982_LE_
RealFeelLog
RealFeelPlugin
RealFeelPlugin_38_
RealFeelPlugin_38_Negative_Force_

Plugins:

LeoFFB.dll
RealFeelPlugin..dll(0.9.3.6)
RealFeelPlugin.dll(0.9.3.8)

The first one should be the LeoFFB.ini file(even if branded as '82, that's where I got it from) and not be deleted(but moved to the plugins folder), right?

Also, what are the latest RF and Leo files? I have no clue, dozens of them are around

Try doing all the track one gear higher than you have done so far. You will be surprised once you look at the chrono.

That's actually not so much the problem, its more getting braking points an corner entry speeds right. Bit to slow, and you feel like it it could go so much faster, a bit to much and your going in a whole different direction. It feels like the cars fall pretty fast out of the window if you push it a little to hard. Not like they want to kill you, but they make their point clear if its to much
