I'm with Sterls on that.. druther have Mallala than China.. had a few test runs at that, and to be perfectly frank.. I suck at it.

Mallala FTW!

I had a quick run through of Mallala last night, seemed fairly decent track.. tho quite uneventful.

Adding all us other crazy ARSE V8 drivers to the reverse grid sprint races should spice it up a little.

I find Jaiding is a bit odd, lots of wide arcing corners with changes of directions, not at all easy to get a flow on or for that matter a setup that works, my VZ doesn't seem to like it. Quite a few long straights too wind the V8 up on the full config tho....

Arnt they going to Bahrain? other then Jiading this year?

lets go there? Bahrain is one of the best tracks in rfactor

Bahrain is indeed one of the best made tracks. I've liked how easy the short tracks are to learn though. They seem to keep the racing close too...

I haven't had a go at Mallala but will check it out before I make my call.

Yep I agree, gives everybody a chance, quick to learn, and with just a little bit of practice at least your somewhat competitive.

The Jiading rFactor track is really bad, he just made it off a map and didn't know about the elevation changes and stuff - it's nothing like the real thing

provided i get my graphics card back, ill definantly be racing.

im supposed to be supplied with a replacement soon, itching to get back into this mod

I agree 100%, I would be happy to stick to short tracks all season (other then bathurst!)

Bring on my home track 'Mallala'

Mallala isn't that bad of a track. quite alot of passing spots in the braking zones. just make sure you get the 1.1 version with the timing fixes

This is the info I was going with....

Round 1 Hidden Vally 48 laps
Round 2 Pukekhoe 3x20 laps Race 2 reverse grid. Race 3 grid done on points
Round 3 Barbagallo 56 laps
Round 4 Mallala 3x20 laps Race 2 reverse grid. Race 3 grid done on points
Round 5 Jiading laps TBA
Round 6 Symmons Plains 60 laps
Round 7 Sandown 100 Laps (driver change)
Round 8 Bathurst 100 laps (driver change)

Of course we'll have to figure of what Jaiding will be.

Happy to slide out Jiading and place Bahrain into its place seeing the that V8's are heading there in a few weeks

Bahrain is fine by me, I've had a crack at Jaiding and didn't think much of it.

The rfactorcentral download is sloooooooooooooooooooooow

I'm all for Bahrain going in ahead of China - this is 2006 after all

i know its still early days in the ARSE V8Factor series, but is anyone else interested in a Porsche Carrera Cup series, using the aussie version?

The poooches mod is pretty good.............

Bahrain does have the missing windscreen glass bug from the replay but that won't make any difference when racing.

okay, i got both the 1.2 version of the porkers and that aussie addon last night. see how it goes

i'd be keen for a porsche series, love driving those cars!

Quite a few good mods.............the complete 79 F1 mod when released should good for a series as well.

We're doing Mallala next week at AOR as well. Any interest in me putting a shared password on our server so we can mingle/share setups etc?

I should warn you that some of our guys tend to just do lots of practice laps and not many races, but with more in the server it might encourage them to race more
