1991 Grande Premio de Portugal (Jul 24th)

i reckon i might be able to get a little more out of the leyton house on saturday, maybe. i was still fiddling with setup between runs and i think i was getting somewhere. but if not, i'm pretty pleased with where i am.

sorry to anyone i held up, etc, was pretty hectic.

Ah, guess what? I'm canning that stupic RealFeel Plugin, and bang: 1:20s...

2nd race in a week thats been ruined before its started by glitches in the game, brilliant.

My car decides to randomly jump into neutral everytime I'm on a fast lap, happened the other night on the server but been fine the two times I've been on since, now tonight it starts doing it again and I couldn't even put in a lap time. Only happens online, have done more laps offline and hasn't done it once.

Check your button configurations for up shifts, downshifts, make sure nothing is assigned in neutral. Are you running the same gearbox config online and offline?

Other than that, it seems like a problem on your end as it is the first time i've ever heard of this issue.

Sorry that you are experiencing these issues.

Alan some options you might have set in your PLR file (Autolift, autoblip, etc) will not work online because the server might consider them helps. That makes the car feel very different online, especially when using mods that have specific settings for unusual gearboxes/clutches to enforce manual shifting etc (F1, Group C)

Run everything same offline as online, If it was a setting that was wrong wouldn't it do it all the time rather than occasionally?

Am re-installing mod into a new Rfactor lite at moment.

have you tried some of the other gearshift options in the car upgrades screen?

Oh my...

Cannot believe both Brabham Drivers has been that fast. Absolutely no clue for a good setup here.

Handling of the car is really not good, looking at the other drivers driving very smooth. Cannot make it to the saturday Qualifying, so i'll see you all at the race.

Ruben and Anders were VERY fast. But not quite Greg HUNT fast

Have been back on server since reinstalling and it worked fine for about 20mins then it starts doing it again! Only seems to do it on qualifying tyres and light fuel on a flying lap, tried the Ferrari and Lotus and it doesn't do it in either of them, but jump back in the Tyrrell and it does it first flying lap! Go offline and it works fine.

Doesn't really matter anyway now as I'm unable to do Saturday qualifying so I won't be able to make the grid for Sunday.

Still turn up though on Sunday. You may make the grid if people do not show. 

If there is any chance you can make Saturday, let me know and you can switch to a free car if you want. (AGS or Modena Lambo)

But to be fair, in regards to the Brabhams, Anders never liked the newer version of the car, he always liked the early season car, it had way better handling though it was slightly slower in the straight line according to what he told me back then

Can´t believe that pace .  I´m feeling like a paydriver for Minardi  with my 1.19s,20s.

Alan, it is the programming of the sim doing this. improper rev matching caused this to happen in real life. With your controller you must select the automatic transmission (and resulting drag) or it will be undriveable.

Can't be Mike if it doesn't happen in the Lotus.

With a heavy heart, I have to withdraw. Just learned I have to jump in for a colleague in late shift at the weekend and won't be home before 7.30 pm. I guess I could make it on time to both quali and race, but it'd be just too much.
To bad, cos my laptimes were developing in the right direction I'll enjoy the broadcast instead.

Not sure there will be one on this occasion.

transmissions vary drastically from car to car. Try the (edit) Mac daddy and I think the Dallara.

There's that extra 'C' again 

That fish slap is getting closer and closer 

as the race time is comming i feel much more that the race will be a nightmare for me, unable to set the car to be driveable fast enough and with well ballaced

Your not going to be anywhere near as quick as you are in qualifying. If your within 3-5 seconds of your Q time on race fuel, you're doing okay.

about 1:20 with 100L (1/2 of race fuel needed)

You probably need more wing on the car.

Edited!

Quali time 17.9, Race time 24
But no time to build a better Setup :-(
