N3 rev limiter?

I thought there was a rev limiter in N3, but I can't find out what key it is. Anybody know? Jeff

no rev limiter in N3. It's gone. Papy took it out. Sorry. -- Kenny L. #14 Generic Chevy PRC Member Wall Scrapers Racing Team > I thought there was a rev limiter in N3, but I can't find out what key it > is. Anybody know? > Jeff

Not quite out...The "rev limiter" was actually intended as an auto-brake feature. Papy took out the in-race switch. I beleive you can still enable the auto-brake in the options menus but you can't turn it on and off during a race. Time to take a few minutes and do what the real world drivers do.. drive the pits in first gear and note the rev's when you hit the pit speed limit...just more work, work work...:) dave henrie

Technically you are right but if you hit "ESC" just before you hit the pits you can turn on braking help and then turn it off when you leave. (got snagged 4 times in one go for speeding at tally :( ) then gaveup and used it.

It's also more sensitive. I got nailed for 46 in a 45 zone... :-( Screwed up a good race(up to that point). It cost me two laps(1 on the green flag stop, 1 on the stop-n-go). ARGH!

And so it should be. They're usually very strict about the speed restrictions. N3 simulates this well. Ken, - Remove 'nospamallowed' from my email address to reply. - ICQ #53954494

If you hit ESC isn't your car still travelling at speed? Its not like your car "pauses", don't you risk getting into an accident if you are pitting with others? Ex

writes I didn't realise there was an option in N2 that allowed for rev-limiting in the pit lane, so I used to go one further to make sure that I didn't exceed the pit lane speed limit. I would ensure that my first gear was set up so that when the spotter said "Keep it under 4500" or whatever, then I would play around with my first gear during practice until when I was keeping it just under 4500 then my pit lane speed would be pretty accurate and the spotter wasn't talking out of his ass. Saved me having to write anything down or remember anything. :-) It didn't always work, on odd occasions as I changed my 1st gear setting the spotter would change the rpm to keep it under, but on most occasions it worked great! I haven't yet got N3 so I'm not sure how this translates to it though. I'm expecting it gift-wrapped this Christmas. :-) -- Peter Ives - (AKA Ivington) No person's opinions can be said to be more correct than another's, because each is the sole judge of his or her own experience.

You can pick up right where you left off. This assumes you're not in a multiplayer game. If you are...? I dunno. I haven't run N3 multiplayer yet.
