Crossing The Finish Line:
When crossing the finish line, crashing your car is not acceptable, nor is any TS chat until the last person has finished.
Driver's are still racing, and racing for position, and it is unfair to disrupt their racing.
Pull over off the track and Esc.. or drive back to the pits.

Mod Installation:

We recommend a fresh install for our mods.

You will need to delete any previous versions of the 944 Cup Mod you may have installed.
However, it is always recommended to do a fresh rFLite install for any KSR mods.
It is a self installer - just set the directory to your rFactor folder (EG: C:\Program Files\rFactor )

The liverys should be under the "skin" tab. There's just one car, and then you select the skin for that car. Little bit different from some mods, but arguably tidier.

[WILDR]

ahhh yup bit special tonight

Is there another way of getting this? I don't want to install Mega

You don't have to install Mega. I haven't.

You don't need to, when you open the page click on download through browser

That doesn't work either. It downloads the file then crashes. I tried it three times.

What browser are you using? I use Chrome and it worked fine for me.

[Riftcreator]

That's really odd :\

I've just tried Firefox at work, no problem. Used Chrome at home, no issue.
Also tried IE, but Mega told me to bugger off an use either Chrome or Firefox.

Edit: I see Opera is also supported. Perhaps try that?

These understeer a lot....then oversteer...and nothing to change on them...

[Bull]

There is plenty of adjustment to go from understeer to oversteer in the setup.

I'm stuggling with them myself to be honest.

[Danman]

I'm lowering mine, stiffer springs , sway bars & shocks all round.
Oh wait - thats on my real one

I'm jealous!

I very nearly bought one last year, but was misadvertised as a turbo, then as a 2.5, but was just a base model 2l being priced too highly.

[Danman]

Would that be a 924 then?
Base model 944 is 2.5L. Mine's an 86' 2.5 - currently more body roll than a double decker bus

Yes it was a 924, advertised as a 924S with a turbo, then as a 944 with 2.5.

50 laps in, did a 51.008, 80+ laps later, can't better it and get into the 50's ............ ARGH!
Mind you, 35+ laps were abourted when I got stuck in the sandtraps of Doom.

It's a fun wee car, but man I just can't get it stable. I'm all over the place like a one armed paper hanger.

[Mike]

... place like a one armed paper hanger.

Like a what?
