Improving Performance:
Right click on the rfactor icon on your desk top. Select properties, then click on the Shortcut tab.
In the target box add this
+fullproc +highprio
Mine looks like this, but you will have rfactor installed in a different location no doubt.
"D:\Program Files\rFactor\rFactor.exe" +fullproc +highprio
4gb Patch (Included in the download)
Everyone with 4+ gb of RAM and a x64 OS should have a look at this:
http://www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php
This patches the rfactor.exe so it can use 4gb of virtual memory, instead of 2gb.
If everything's running fine, then excellent. if not, this is worth a try.
nVidia Users
Some nVidia GFX card users experienced some minor stuttering at sections of some tracks, even though frame rates were fine.
Here is a link to a nVidia fix that might help.
Installation: Put the included d3d9.dll in your rFactor root folder. (backup your orginal d3d9.dll file if you have one)

I seem to be missing the 'no spin' patch. But some how ended up with the 'do something dum arse' patch instead.

Also, for anyone who wasn't here on race night. You must install the 4gb patch, otherwise rFactor will crash when cars exceed 10 or 11.
The 4GB patch is included in the race download. Simple run the exe and point it to the rFactor.exe, if you need any help with this, feel free to ask on Discord, or send a reply here.

Theres still a few people missing on the points site too, might pay to hold off updating until Round 2 when everyone is on as some of the new guys might be having trouble setting it up.

Lite retail disc installs all have different exe rifty. The one riven uploaded would only work on the version of rfactor that exe is from. All sulley has to do is reinstall his original exe then use the patch that came with the mod.

Re: NZrFL:38 World Endurance Series World Tour
Don't know if I'd call it dominating when he was second on points heading into the last round
Was a good series, shame that numbers dropped off really, and the parity wasn't quite spot on across all the cars. Had some great moments racing with Murphy and Riven etc throughout the series though.
Hopefully something good in the pipeline for next series
Well done to Mike as well on dragging his sewing machine to third ahead of Murphy at the final round
