Turbo 80s Indy Glory - CART 1985 - rFactor2

[@jeffreytam7684]

Don’t forget that Adrian Newey cut his teeth designing the March cars from this period Excellent stuff as always

[@noahletwinski6955]

And won the championship with his design

[@EmilRJohanssonRacing]

Really? I never knew that!

[@jeffreytam7684]

@@EmilRJohanssonRacing Yep he was stateside from '83 to '87 I believe, working on March sportscars and then the very successful Indycar program

[@NY-Vice]

Interesting thanks for sharing!

You hitting Emerson Fittipaldi remembered me of last year when jimmer punted him of at Laguna Seca in an Allstars event

[@daren42]

Likewise. "Don't hit Emerson Fittipaldi, don't hit Emerson Fittipaldi... ... I hit Emerson Fittipaldi."

[@kronos711]

That's such an incredible sentence. 'jimmer punted Emerson Fittipaldi'.

[@daren42]

The sound is amazing. rFactor 2 definitely has that going for it. Another amazing sounding mod is the Stock Car Resurrection mod, for early 70s nascar. It has that low rev throbbing rumble that I have never heard anywhere else. It's worth checking out just for that I think.

[@Eibarwoman]

Fun fact: Danny Ongais is the only Native Hawaiian or for that matter Polynesian to qualify or make the Indy 500. And he also raced in the 1996 500.

People tend to forget that Rick Mears was a fantastically good road racer before his Sanair crash really

[@maskedsonja5722]

Always enjoy a cup of tea and watching a new vid. Thanks again for posting these, and I really like the history you give on these videos about the era. Awesome as always!

[@eduardoaurelioschefer9164]

Easily my favorite channel on KZbin and I love that you always tell some cool facts before the race start

[@heavierthanairfilms]

Gotta love them hilariously stubby-looking turbo cars.

[@weallfollowmanutd]

Thought they looked pretty, rather than stubby

[@secretRBRman]

80s and early 90s indy cars are sexy with those chrome speedway rims

[@gary24fan]

I love how you know all the cars and drivers from that era. We might be twin brothers from different mothers!

Al Sr pulling a Bobby Allison lmao. ‘You thought you were gonna win?? Nah.’

[@djvycious]

This is probably my favourite mod for rF2 Chief did an awesome job with this. I don't consider myself a modder, but me and a couple other guys did the skins, so I'm always happy to see the ones I did in action! I think my favourite was Scott Brayton, because I had to look through so many photos, and the sponsors vary from the Oval and Road configurations. I also did the Arie Luyendyk skin. If you look closely, the car is a VERY dark blue. The rear car was dark blue, not black, confirmed by Arie himself, so I tried to create a blue that looks black but has a blue tinge under the perfect conditions. I think one of the other skin makers Chris was working on an IBL update for the skins.

[@killereaglez8115]

sick skins!

[@djvycious]

@@killereaglez8115 Thanks man!

[@MrLoader12]

I would really watch a whole season of this if it 's possible, or any other season of indycar lol I'm a total noob when comes to sim racing but the cars look amazing and the sound is beautiful too!

[@EmilRJohanssonRacing]

Fantastic showcase of a mod that's just as fantastic itself! If you want further rF2 tips, I suggest checking out the late 90s(98 or 99 I believe it is) CART mod, the F1 1979 mod, or, my personal favorite: the 1984 WSC mod with tons of amazing cars and liveries!

[@bryanwilmot]

I miss PIR loved walking the track at the swap meet but hoping next year they will have the auto swap meet

[@TheBigDawgSL]

I remember building some sick sets for this set and helping beat this beast. And I actually used H pattern. And Michael Andretti told me these were the only cars that scared him.

[@nikbear]

Absolutely awesome! Really hope to see more of this 👍🏁🍾

[@Lol-pb9bx]

We need you on the NASCAR Weekly Podcast!!!

[@coffinbunnyzoey]

Oh hey, Portland, that's my local track! Will hopefully be going to the indy race there this year

[@MadMaxBLD]

This looks awesome! Time to boot rFactor 2 back up.

[@flipdry]

Now I have a reason to play rfactor 2! Thanks Jake!

[@ryangavigan2049]

are there any mods that have the pre-93 apron version of Indy?

[@pjludda4323]

Now I have this sudden urge to watch the 1985-1990 Indy 500...TO HYPE ME FOR THIS SUNDAY, BAYBEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

[@mikemorgan8895]

What kinds of problems did y ok I encounter setting it up? Maybe you could do a short video on this?

[@Don_Remez]

Love ur videos, thank you!

[@BD12]

Goddamn if I don't love open wheelers from this time period, even the shit ones. The F1/86 was a piece of crap but to me it's just how car should look.

[@ryklatortuga4146]

Portland always reminds me of a close relation to Montreal - Different but similar... Richie Axelson For President!

[@claudiof9660]

Great video, as always.

[@hendrikscheel4919]

great video... what Song is that?... its fantastic, I must have it on vinyl!

[@jasonmoyer]

Someone needs to make old-school Indy with the apron for these cars.

[@Villoresi]

I'd certainly like to see these cars have a go at Pocono and Road America. While elevation change isn't an absolute requirement, it still helps, a lot.

[@andymac3565]

That was awesome. As an older guy I like driving games not all the fantasy and kill em dead stuff. Problem is since watching a heap of your videos and some others Im thinking of investing in a good rig and sim. Now...... how to tell the wife ?

[@SAHOYT71013]

Show her these videos and the enthusiasm it gives you, just make sure you pick up a prefab gaming PC because you'll never get a competent graphics card for a DIY setup.

[@edwardburek1717]

I hear there's a spare shed somewhere in Southern England where you can install your PC and rig without letting the wife know...

[@zekeandersson2040]

hey pal where is the intro song from?

Why when i drive with this mod does my car overheat on ovals? I have lifted off the gas while shifting, changed gear ratios etc..it overheats everytime

[@GPLaps]

Youve either got to turn down the boost, or open the radiators in the aero setup

[@CallforthePriest]

@@GPLaps Hey thanks!! i will give it a shot

[@AJBa83]

Agreed about Portland. Short, flat, has a slow chicane. Shouldn't work, but it's racy, evocative and synonymous with Indycar.

12th, scoring 1 point.

There was several Long Beach one offs, that I didn't include, but that is a good chunk of the field that ran. As EmperorOfFinland said in his video, the AI might not be good. But hopefully he'll be able to get it updated.

[@LowEndPCGamer100]

i would love to get rfactor 2 so much, but you cant get a copy anywhere but steam. if i cant back up my mods and program files, and run them offline, im not going to spend my hard earned cash on it. especially not if my copy is on some valve server rather than my ssd.

[@Nugget11578]

You do realize steam isnt a streaming service right? You can backup all your mods and stuff and run it offline. Unless your joking and I just made myself look stupid.

[@heavierthanairfilms]

You can absolutely run steam games offline.

[@LowEndPCGamer100]

@@heavierthanairfilms yes but I have to sign in, which requires a connection, and so does installation

[@ganymedeix9511]

@@LowEndPCGamer100 For what its worth you can run Steam in an "offline mode". Many games still have full functionality in that mode, assuming they don't use Steam for their multiplayer.

@@ganymedeix9511 personally, i just buy a game on steam and crack it or use goldberg for backup purposes anyway, but i think steam is better suited for multiplayer games

too bad this mod is not on AC. ACs VR is way better optimized. ;-)

[@michaelpomar4783]

Glad you reviewed this Jake. Chief does some excellent work, he's got a GPL mod and a 1986 F1 mod also that are both excellent. There is also his "Lego" project where you can build any 1970's f1 vehicle, I'm not sure if it is still on the Workshop, but he's the original source: forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/70s-formula-1.66791/
