Is that what it is? I was going to moan that since 1.3 my down shifting now needs to be slower or it doesn't go into the lower gears...  :o
Glad I'm not the only one!  ;D

BTW - anyone running OV1? Is your working since the update?

No, my OV1 not working. Noticed a lot of the apps have been re-released yesterday. Assume this is so they will work with 1.3, but no OV1 yet

Yeah that's so annoying, found myself hammering the downshift paddle waiting for the car to finally accept the idea of a downshift... doesn't give you confidence going into a braking section. Although, after you do quite a few laps in some of the cars that have it, I think you do get used to it and have less false shifts... but I'd love to have a switch to get rid of it for sure!!  :P

takes a bit of the skill out of it now i just spam the downshift button to get the gear as quick as it will let me which is too slow and means you can no longer ride the the limit under brakes with the rear skating in because theres no engine brake now.
do you even motorsports?

Is more realistic,especially driving older cars like the GT 40

But by the same token, you can't just use unrealistic engine braking to stop unrealistically either. Swings and roundabouts...

Loving the GT40... and the new track is superbly built.... I wonder if we can ballast the GT40 back to Cobra 427 S/C times without ruining it?  Some food for thought.

The GT40 is awesome. It put a big smile on my face.

Would be good to do some Thursday nights in the GT40 unless Wally plans a season for Tuesdays?

I don't know how it was possible to get it better but the steering feel in AC1.3 is a dramatic improvement to me. Is it just because I've been way!!!
