    Firstly, I couldn´t decide which one. And then I saw that I could save more than 50% (54 to be exact) by buying the liveries seperately so I couldn´t resist (against better knowing).

    I buy all liveries so that I can run a full grid of the same class in single player races.

    In singleplayer, AI cars can race with liveries you don't own. Only you can't have not owned livery on your car.

    But isn´t there an issue that you can only challenge for leaderboards if you own the livery the person-you-want-to-challenge drove?

    It doesnt neccessarily apply to the rsr as there the liveries really are very similar but in general i like to have at least a few different liveries. Especially with stuff like gt3 it just feels wrong to drive around bathurst with a nürburgring livery and so on for all kinds of series. On top of that i just feel that aesthetically some liveries fit some circuits better than others so its nice to have a few to choose from

    It has already been 2 months after the launch of the Daytona track, unfortunately there are very few people willing to race on this track. I watched different Leagues, and there were very few races and pilots there.
    As I understand it, the Oval configuration is just a bonus. Can Oval make Free for everyone?
    I am sure there will be a lot of people who want to go to publics, and it will be easier to recruit pilots for the race. More pilots are needed for the oval ...

    This is the normal case for newer tracks. There are many people who don't buy new stuff at release. And there is also summer now. So many people prefer to do outside activities, or are on holiday. Wait for autumn and the player numbers will rise.

    I truly love the Daytona track and its inclusion in R3E but there is one glaring discrepancy with the track layout that I am curious about. Why is there no grass area between the pits and the main "straight"? I have been there many times and do not remember a time where it was concrete or tarmac all the way from the pit wall to the stands. The photo a couple post above shows the Daytona I know with the grass and the name. Is there a reason why the track in game is so different visually?

    EDIT: I have been assured that I am mistaken. I am not sure what I have been seeing that brought me to this conclusion but I will really pay attention the next time I can log in.

    Either i dont quite get what exactly you mean or our versions of daytona look different :D
    This is how it looks to me in game and how id expect it to look based on what i usually see on tv watching the 24h

    Hmmm that is weird. I am going to have to take another look. From what I remember of the track when I am exiting the pits on the Oval there is only pavement to the right side of the car. The Oval is what I have run recently. Maybe that is an Oval only thing and they just did not bother to finish it or I am seeing it totally wrong. I apologize for the confusion either way.

    The big area with grass is there on the oval as well
    But if you talk about the pit exit as in end of the pitlane (oval pit lane thatd be) then there is a stretch where theres only asphalt between pitlane(exit) and race track but thats the same in real life as well (see photo from last years 24h)
