    Big brother was kind enough to leave the simulator at my house last weekend...complete with a user-made Road Atlanta that's dead-accurate as far as I can tell. Needless to say, I haven't been getting much sleep.

    I think rFactor is a lot of fun for F1 cars, and the Carrera Cup mod is pretty good.. But almost every road car in that game has terrible snap oversteer, the second they start to slide the back end flips out of control. Its kind of horrible for stock/barely modified cars.

    Meh. We used the Sauber for a few tracks. It's definitely fun and challenging, but the chances of ever hopping into one in real life are nill. The RSX looking thing is more challenging, IMO, and requires more patience and focus on smooth inputs. I like the fact that it's a little tail happy in tight segments. I'll actually use a little trail braking on some occassions to coax the rear to step out.

    So last night I tried out some different cars. The "Rayzor" definitely acts a lot more like a FWD car than anything else I've driven on the game, and I'm WAY more comfortable in it. You should give that one a shot if you get a chance, Red.

    You should download the free LFS demo and give THAT a chance

    Bringing this thread back from the dead.

    I saw on another forum, someone was making a Duryea hill climb track(in rFactor) and had posted a video of their progress on youtube.

    I'm wondering what it takes to make a track in rFactor?
