In PC1 I assigned A,T and S to buttons on the wheel so they could be enabled and disabled on the fly. Done the same in PC2 and it doesn't work. It just shows the current state of the aid, and doesn't toggle it. Any one done this? If so, does it work?
I use the In Car menu and you can adjust ABS / TC etc.
I leave ABS on and then turn it off on that menu in the appropriate cars.

OK. I've seen the in car menu. I'll use that if that's the only way. Wonder why you can assign buttons that don't work? Bug?

I was reading about this yesterday. You have to turn stability control off first as TC is linked to the stability Control. Not tried it yet though.

Also someone was saying that you have to do this in the pits or at low speed. I can understand this as some corners in some cars were quicker with TC whilst others were slower. In PC1 you could do this on the fly at full speed. Used this technique a few times myself but don’t tell anyone.

Ah, so try at low speed. I'll give it a bash on the next session.

Looks like it's a TT thing. In private testing, all assists can be toggled at any time, but not in TT.

Although it's hard to compare the amount of laps at the moment, Djbuzz07 takes the real-time win with an impressive 106 laps to win by a tenth of a second. That win takes him into first place in the league and Born2BSlow falls back to second.

A small gap opening in the relegation battle with Ollerton57 and molineux1980 looking at the plunge.

Doodlebug87 and Twistygit looking good for promotion, although Pappers took the most points, probably got a little too much to catch up to challenge.

I won the handicapped race, due to the vagaries of the handicapping system. Matt S put in another strong performance to keep the championship lead.

Just trying out program called Voice attack. (Steam £8.99 although can be purchased outside of steam) with PC2. Using it for things like adjusting brake balance and requesting pit entry, headlights wipers etc. Have to say it works very well and is very customisable. Will experiment tonight to see if can change brake balance by a certain amouunt ie. increase brake bias ten. Will see if I can get it to work with pit strategy also.

If anyone else is using it can they let me know any tips or tricks.

Sadly I don't have the jag in my car list so couldn't do that, also broke the G25 gearbox in the formula rookie so have to take that apart again hehe

Looking forward to the next challenges and going to look at that voice attack.

Few bugs / annoyances :

Online in Qualifying the lap/position board when set to minimal always shows pos 99/99 ... not useful.

The 911 GT3 Endurance is broken with 2nd/3rd gear ratios the same and you cannot edit around it (no matter what you do you end up with 2 ratios the same

Don't quit an online race as you get screwed in the rankings (even if you are span out and rage quit from retirement)

Talking of online rankings I did one race, went from 1500 (default) to 1505. Quit the next due to being rammed, 1455, then podium on the next 3 races, same ranking!??!?!

The country thing says I'm Italian / German / Spanish (I wish!)

Pit Lane speed limiter warnings appear even when you are miles away from the pitlane (EG Monza!!)

When entering the pit the steering wheel doesn't work and stays in the last held position.

Constantly asking to over write the previous cars setup even when you save it as a new file (confused).
