Hi folks, the racing community over at "Simracers Revival" (http://simracers.gplrank.info) has created an update to rF Santa's excellent Brabham BT52 car, containing 60+ custom made liveries from bygone days of all areas of motorsport, an engine sounds update, a 3d model update and much more, like all tracks we'll run over the course of the 2010 season. You can download the stand-alone, rF lite based installation here: http://www.zitterpalme.de/post/rF_lite_and_bt52_season2010_readme_first_please.rar Please check the provided readme files (german and english) for installation instructions. We hope you enjoy the new cars and hope to meet you online on our 24/7 open practise server (check the lobby for "Brabham Masters Series" at Silverstone88). Please follow up here if you have any questions, and feel free to spread the news in the appropriate places. All the best & happy new year to you all, Uwe

Uwe, Didn't see any readme. The file initially showed as a 400m download but then ended being 87m. The file looks like an update and not a full version. BTW, Uwe, now that RSC is down, where does most of the rFactor crowd go for posting on forums and stuff? Thanks, Alan

Meh, forums, let's revive this place instead! ;-) Seriously, no idea. I can point you to our lively rF community over hat http://simracers.gplrank.info/ (check the english forum which we're in the process of setting up). Apart from that, I'm certain that if there is a void left to be filled by RSC's demise, it quickly will. Mystmagoo (rF Rank co-admin) also triggered the new rank forum at http://forums.gplrank.info/. Don't despair, something will come up eventually, for now enjoy the new BT52! Uwe

Uwe, I've tried again, and this time I've gone beyond the last time, so it looks like I'm getting the entire file. But something was definitely up before, as the file I got was not corrupt and appeared to be an update. Have a Happy Holiday! Alan

Agreed. With this and simple ftp/web sites everything could be covered and without any of the downsides of web forums. And that could go for every simulator covered here. Lack of threading and unnecessary separation of each program in web forums is comnpletely unnecessary and counter productive. Don't get me started on the restrictions of downloads to only members.

It would be great if this place could come back to like. I'd fucking stop swearing if it did.
