rFactor: C6-R Corvette
http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail...Corvette%20C6R
As my cheap* 3-month stay at iRacing* draws to a close I've been trying to avoid getting the iBends on the way out. That led me to this mod the other day. At first it looked and sounded great, but felt a bit weird. Then I messed with the default setup, stopped spinning every three seconds, and started having some fun. It's a very nice mod indeed IMO. It makes me realise that iRacing might be onto something by adding the car (eventually) to their vehicle list. Having said that, despite the recent spurt in iSignups (after the Nascar announcement) I still wish iRacing would dump half the content and force everyone to race in just a few series. There'd be tantrums all over the place, but I think the overall racing experience would improve for those who didn't die of a sulk-induced heart attack... as I would if they culled the Skip Barber. :-) That's a separate issue though. The rFactor Corvette's actually a better ride than I expected. I take back some of the horrible things I said about US hardware. Only some of it though. ;-) Andrew McP *If you ignore the $200 I blew on extra content in that time! |

Yea, yanks are not very smart when it comes to designing fast and efficient cars but the Corvette is an exception. The AC Cobra was too but that was actually a Brit car body with a huge American engine in it so was not really an all American car. Those American muscle cars from the 60s that they love so much may have looked tough on the road but they were only good in the straights and were highly unstable in corners. Still, some of them looked sexy but that was all they really had going for them. |

LOL yeah right, that is why Shelby won freaking nearly any race they entered, because they were "only good" in a straight line, ROFLMAO... Jesus Chrysler man, you forget about the handfuls/bucketfuls of garbage the rest of the world's auto makers produces (even BMW and the like), of **** cars/models? so you have 4, that most cant afford, that are "nice", yet not all of them pumped out of them companies, are great cars, some are absolute ****. Not trying to say US cars aren't full of craps cars either, agreed!? |
