    Default Indy track or something close??

    Is there an Indy Motor Speedway track out there for rFactor?

    Try here... http://www.jnsonline.com/portal/

    JNS made the Indy oval... You have to register at their forums to download. I think it's at rTracker too, but way down the list as it's been out for a while. It's not that great, but the best out there right now.

    It's what SimCar used the other day when they ran their "Indy 500"... They used the stock rF Formula cars in the OW 2005 series. They had a real race control that put out yellow, green flags, etc. a pace car driven by a human (rtrainer), and ran 500 KM (not miles). AJ Allmendinger (real Champ Car driver) won the race by a fraction of a second over 2nd place.

    I think the fastest Q speed was like 236 mph. I have a setup, but can only hit 228 or so in the straights (actually probably closer to the real race speeds today). From the replay of the race, they were hitting 250 mph in the draft.

    I've been meaning to take the IndyRC project that I worked on and convert it to also have the Oval as well, the way Daytona will be when it's released in a couple of days all finished (ooops, did I let that slip?)

    Good to hear Tim!

    Here's the setup for the stock Formula cars at JNS INDY... I'll try and get one from one of the guys that ran in the SimCar race to get another 10+ mph. It's like running Daytona in NR2003... Just keep it floored... a warning though, the AI runs closer to the speeds of the Foyt's. moving roadblocks....

    Thanks John. You are right about the AI. I had them maxed out and was still running them over.

    Is there any way to make the AI faster?

    Ricky, try running that setup with the Front downforce at 22 and the rear at 26. it will slow you down a bunch. You'll be turning 45 sec laps. You'll be at the top of the speed chart still but only by a little with the AI set to 120%. They will give you a run for the top in a race becuase once you work past them they line up and catch you in the draft.
