I'd love to race this, but my Air National Guard base is having an ORE (operational readiness exercise) that I can't get out of. More of that "real world" crap getting in the way of my simming...lol.

Downloading the mod anyway so I can play during practice races. It's a huge file so I can't really pick my car just yet since I haven't seen them.

This is where practicing on the server is crucial. Bump drafting AI ALWAYS ends in tears because they seem to love to brake check you. However, practicing on a server, it might be a good idea to try gentle bump drafting...and like Lugnut said ONLY IN THE STRAIGHTS! Never run up fast on a car and slam his bumper. This will mostly end up bad for one or both of you. If you feel yourself in a good draft and fast approaching a car in front, drag the brake a little to gently connect to his bumper. Be aware of the front car and if he starts to get squirrely or a little sideways, get off his bumper. Also be aware of the corners. Near the end of a straight if you're hooked to a bumper, drag your brake a little to disconnect. Don't lift off the gas unless something's going majorly wrong...just press the brake pedal a little. Letting off the throttle will lose a lot of momentum you had.

During the recent Skoda racing we did, I had an awesome start and I forget who I was behind but I bumped drafted him all the way to T1 and we gained a couple positions.

Quick question, installing the mod now. Do I install it to my desktop (default) or to my rFactor folder?

From the desktop. When installing, it will give you the option to install as part of your rFactor installation, or as a free standing install. Pick the latter option. To keep it "legal", you're supposed to copy the rfactor.exe from your existing, paid for, rfactor install.

Okay...the "legal" stuff seems a bit silly but I'll comply. Thanks!

Ok I'll give it a whirl...

quick question, all the cars have the same performance? dodge, ford,toyota etc..

Yep they're all the same. Always do a stand alone install and I don't believe you have to manually copy any executables, the installer will do it for you. However, you can copy your profile and controller folders over so you don't have to start with a blank slate completely.

can I change my car please,
