I want to congratulate Jason and the team for the outstanding job on this historic mod. Good to see it's so popular. Maybe a league with these somewhere in 2015?

Heading to the track now to test my #6

Thanks for the kind words, Peter. We have all intentions of staging the full 1973 USAC National Championship series in 2016 yes . But before that we need to finish v1.1, as the technical rules changed during the 1973 season (after the dramatic Indy 500) and our mod will of course reflect that. So only Open events for 2015 and the full series for 2016 is the plan .

Thank you Peter. That really means a lot 

Thanks for the encouraging comments

But, let me tell you something guys ... you ain't seen the mod in its full glory yet In two months we will be rolling around the best and most intimidating ever version of the Indianapolis motor speedway you have seen The USAC season was always secondary, conquering the Indy 500 was each make and team's main goal, and any would have gladly not finished the rest of the USAC circuit races as long as they won the Indy 500.

Take our word on this, racing these cars at Indy is different to everything else, you will really feel what they were made for, and enjoy a unique experience. We spent a lot of time fine tuning the aero effects and on the 180+ flat turns of Indy, racing in a pack becomes an incredible experience.

this is indeed mindblowing
forget my earlier nonsense comment , cause after i dialed in the right ffb with a leo-realfeel combo It is amazing ( idiot me i use it also for gtpc and historix)

this addiction is very rare to find in rf1 and glad it can be found here at HSO!



one thing ( check the coyote windscreen shield if there is a upcomming version because the mirrors are floating in space and the boost rev counter is missing)

Windshield transparencies are on the list of things to revise for 1.1 and the boost needle is not missing, what you see on the left in white/silverish color is the plate that (later) hosted the boost control knob.




Glad the FF is working now, all reports so far said it was great hence it felt a bit odd that you were lacking the correct feeling with it.

Cheers François, it is a very rare quality to admit one was wrong, particularly among simracers ! Apologies if my comment of your initial comment sounded a bit harsh btw... but I'm sure you can understand how I felt ^^. Anyways, thanks for your comments

PLEASE NOTE: If there are those signed up who would like to drive in heat 1 and then volunteer their car to a reserve driver for heat 2, we can start a list for that. Some of you may not be able to run both 100 lap heats, and this idea would give others a chance to taste the mod.

I volunteer to give my car to a driver from the waiting list if all seats are taken during race 1

Boost must be selected in the upgrade section before you join the server.

Maaaan! That Parnelli car is a bomb on wheels. With Q-boost exciting the last corner the backwheels are eager to spin. My #6 car does not have such problems in Q-trim

The Offy in the #6 car is slightly less powerful in qualy trim

Jason, it seems that the super speedway configuration is mandatory on the server. Is it right ?

Yes.

Your car is the 16#  DAVID SABRE

What times should I be looking at for an Eagle 72-Foyt? I see Richard Wilks has a mid-31 in the Coyote Mk4-Foyt, and I'm running consistent laps at about a mid-32 offline.

It should be the speedway config, not the superspeedway. You sure it is the latter one?

I did 31.500 in my #6 with Q-boost settings (950HP), I could not go any faster with it.

Peter, yours is an Eagle 72-Offy.

Alessio, it depends on what boost Richard was running when he set that time.

I have a Q-boost of 875HP so I reckon I'm quite happy with my times at the moment
