The level of skill in Jake's driving is humbling. I bought rfactor2 last weekend to replicate the Longford 50s race. I was very poor compared to Jake! Loving this content, and always smile when a new video pops up!

Seriously we need a league about this. Get a group of people, get them to build their own car, race them, and create our own era of racing.

I have nothing but praise for chief Wiggins. The man also brought us in the cart 1990 phenomenal just phenomenal. Chief Wiggins you’re the best in the business and thank you for your RF two contribution I’ve already donated and I suggest others donate to you as well.

The '80s mod sounds like it's gonna be 🔥🔥🔥. This whole mix-and-match formula car bits idea reminds me of "Victory: The Age of Racing." It was very much on the arcade end of the realism spectrum, but it was possible to build some pretty realistic-looking cars from the early '60s all the way to modern times. Might be worth checking out if you haven't already.

As for your Eagle v8 climax combo Eagle never used a v8 climax they used the older Straight-4 Climax up sized to 2.7 litre from original 2.5 1960 unit.

Finding that sweet spot between cold tires & a hot engine 😹

I've never been that big on the 60's cars but my god they sound so good. I definitely think this is an era I need to revisit and probably spend a lot more time with.

chief wiggum is, in my opinion, the best rf2 modder at the moment

Thank you for not only the work you do (as it's my love too), but showcasing this. I am SO all over this right now. I think every racing game I get these days, I always gravitate to the 60s F1s first, if they're there. Something about them is so pure and great.

Every once and a while i kinda forget rfactor 2 exists, then i see videos like this and then i go play it for like a week straight. I cant wait to tinker with this one when i get the time too.

They need to bring this into AC Content Manager. Super cool swapping out engines and body and aero.

Excellent video as always, I have a moderate knowledge of the late 60s f1 and this helped make those smaller details so much more clear

I have several ideas, how leagues could work. It depends on how random the result should be and do you want to have multiple classes (every part gets a score and every class can use a specific amount of points. in my example I will use the sum of 40 for all best parts together and class A will be use up to 5 points, B = 15, C = 25 and D = 35). I don't like systems, which penalize fast drivers/ winners, so there are no options for that. Option A: randomize who have to use which parts before each round (and reshuffle undriveable combinations like the best front wing without rear wing). This is the only option, which can be held without giving all parts a score. Option B: make 8 races and use a different class for each round and all drivers are in the same class and can select what they want (e.g A, B, C, D, A, B, C, D). Option C: drivers select a class and which parts they want and changes are not allowed. so when you want to be fast in monza and slow in monaco, select a good engine, but when you want to win monaco, you should select wings. Option D: give everybody part points after each round at the end everybody should reach class D (e.g 35 part points / (8-1) races = 5). If somebody skip one round, he still get the part points, else he wouldn't have a chance for the rest of the season. Added parts can't be removed (e.g second round monaco, third monza: if you buy wings for 5 points in monaco, you can't remove them for monza to buy an engine for 10 points.

There were no V 10's in the 60's and the Repco was based off of the Buick 215 block with an OHV valve train and heads grafted on.

Always love this sort of stuff. Keep it up!

Excellent driving. You make it look easy. Tremendous.

Hi, i have to say i love your channel! Great Videos, just wish i had more time to watch them all :) I´m a big Fan of Group C, maybe because my first live Racing experience was a Race at the Nordschleife with a bunch of Porsche 956`s and so on. I still remember the Goosebumps i got, when these Monsters started their Engines! Sim Racing is a real great way to relive these times! Your Channel is a great starting point to see what sims give you a great experience (And yeah i found many Mods for Assetto Corsa thanks to you ), thank you very much 😍

This was such a fun video to watch

Speaking of the Tasman Series, it's been in the news that they're getting rid of the Pukekohe circuit.

AC desparately needs something like this. Think about how endless the combinations could be for the 60s/70s sports prototypes and formula cars

Great video! I quickly tried the mod when it came out and was not aware it worked this way. Certainly going to give it a shot again. I found the FFB a bit low on my Fanatec GT DD Pro somehow, but that may need some more tweaking from my side.

I don't have much to say other than this was another brilliant, high quality video and I just wanted to leave a comment to appease the KZfaq gods. So... Really enjoyed the video, great work!

Love ur content man

Only gripe I have is we didn't get to see the different dash's! Great vid, thank you :)

So far I did not feel the need to re-install rF2 again. But I would do it for this mod alone. That is really a great concept by Chief Wiggum. If you are reading this Chief, maybe you remember me when you were a part of my GPL-Fun Liga in Germany back in the days. Great stuff you have done there. Sound is amazing too. Thanks Jake for another great and entertaining video.👍

this so good mate loved it

Great content as usual Jake. I believe that it's an athletics stadium, in fact it was our National Athletics stadium pretty much up to the 2012 Olympics

Another very interesting and entertaining video. Love the idea of a league, perhaps also having reverse points for upgrades, with even negatives for the winners? Curiously if you've got an old 1967s calendar, it'll be identical to 2023 - the perfect retro Xmas present!

Those mid-'60s cars were something else, so difficult to drive fast

I think a point system with a cap which forces drivers to prioritize what is more important to them. That might work for a league.

This would be a great series! In addition to the HRRC, you create your own f1 car coupled with a custom livery.

Outstanding Content!

This would actually be a super fun league to do for like, 10 rounds. Have a multi class between non-downforce and downforce cars and every car has to have at least 1-2 swapped piece(s). That would make for some interesting competition!

I've always wanted an Eagle-Cosworth.

great vid as always.I have something to try over the week end now.....A video of yr ffb steering wheel settings DOR etc for each game would be interesting and helpful....

Good run, sir

It's a brilliant mod.

Ild love to see the difference in laps time around the old spa layout. a difference on 1.5 seconds around such a tiny track must have lead to a huge jump in times around spa or even the nurburgring

‘Hopefully we can rev it more before it blows’ sounds like a bad line from a Fast and Furious porno

Love to see you rip around in those cars! Can i ask what HUD you are running? Looks soo clean

I spent some time time earlier this year testing with this track in RF2 and found on more than one occasion I came barreling into the final turn way too fast only to put a nasty dent into the nose cone🤣

Interesting video Obviously though if you put a powerful engine into a well designed and developed car and then add downforce and therefore more grip then that car would be better and quicker Also maybe a high speed track like monza would have been a better test Still an excellent video

Would like to see an Indycar mod like this

Here's what I would do if I were running a league with this mod. I would be make each part a card... Shuffle them and then have the drivers draw a set number of cards at the start of the season. You then get those parts to bolt onto your car outside of the default setup. Podium finishers could get to draw more cards from the deck. Which they add to their parts bin to be able to use. As its all luck of the draw, there is no guarantee that the fastest drivers will always get the best kit. You have to build the best car with the list of bits you have access too. So you might be lucky and draw a Cosworth engine card... Or you might end up with a BRM H16. Either way you'll end up with a grid of very different cars which could evolve over the season as the drivers gain access to more parts.

I thought Ferrari were the first to run proper wings in 1968 however if I remember correctly Lotus did use a Aerofoil on Graham Hill's Lotus 49 which won the 1968 Monaco GP

I thought for some reason Mike the Bike owns both lap records for two and four wheels at the Palace? Stil no as loud as a bunch of Crystal Palace ans during a home game. That engine neeeds work to be loud

Ur downshifting too early, thats why u went kablooey, first fime I ever drove a 58 Ferrari in rf1 downshifting into a turn I went boom, very fun and very cool

Great video, love the old race cars, none of that stability control, traction control, or abs stuff, just man having to control the machine, awesome

This would be fun in a league as a handicap system. I am not a fan of the performance weight penalties. Plus you can create the Tasman series Spec with 2.5 L engines and different chassis combo's

How much of a difference in suspension movement can you feel between the high and low wings? The early wings were mounted on the hub carriers so the downforce was only on the wheels (which as I recall is why they were banned, not just because they were mounted up high in clean-ish air) which allowed full suspension travel, while the low body/chassis mounted wings only applied downforce when the suspension was fully loaded.

I always was curious if there was any outcry from fans and media when the first wings starting appearing on F1 cars like we had recently when the halo was added. People complaining that is was an abomination and it ruined the aesthetics of the cars.

Love your shit it's awesome. Just enjoying this. yea v 16 weighs a ton LOL

Hopefully there will be a 80,s mod aswell…. (how about the MP4/4 chassis with the full on groundeffect sidepods from the early 80,s … and an 1986 engine…

Bro i love you

Crystal Palace is a soccer club from London

Not that it matters but a H16 can't be 2 V8s stitched together, that would be a V16. This is more 2 flat eights stacked vertically. :)

I swear all the engines sound identical...

I knew the first V10 was Alfa Romeo's in 1987

I know you said you got your Matra bit wrong but I’m going to lecture you on how you wrong you were because in need to be right in the KZfaq comments section. 😅

gplaps is falling for rf2... yippee.. haha

first

better assetto corsa , automobilista 2, project cars 2 or this for 67 season?
