      Jaka Kosmac Puddles are not even that bad, its the detail that its made ok.
      But overall grip and dynamics on wet surface are nothing alike what they should be.
      You literaly have more grip on wet with wet tyres than you have on dry with slicks (even Jimmer adresses that during video), and thats about as wrong as it gets.
      Sol is, as much as I know, purely visual and does not affect physics at all, unless you tweak grip values on specific tracks yourself before you drive each track.
      It you want to try a very good wet track behaviour in a sim, try Gtr2.

      @@drazenbudis7881 Look at the setup Jimmy had though. In the dry the car was understeering like crazy and the lack of grip was at the front. With the reduced grip in the rain and on wet tyres, the rear livens up more creating a car with more neutral handling, with oversteer being more of a problem. The greater amount of grip he was feeling is from the car being more balanced...

    Would be nice to have some replay "best moments" to be able to visualise the struggle. Good job getting to the end in one piece!

    I wish more weather races would run online, and drivers with balls would attempt to finnish the run.

    You should have seen at least the last two Nürburgring 24 hrs races they were also hit by crazy weather hail one year stopped the race and then once the race got going it all came down to a last lap down pour . Last year was also hit by heavy rain again stopping the event for driver safety on the old part of the track , once again once restarted it was another epic finish . But then again both Spa and Nürburgring are in the same forest , both can see rapids weather changes , and this is why they are both legendary tracks for a drive to race on. Great Video though thanks.

    I was at this race in Spa with Racing Team Nederland, the weather was crazy! Walked a lap with my dad around the track when the snow storms hit

    I went to pikes peak for the hill climb and there was sun, rain, thunderstorm, fog, and snow. Was the most insane 8 hours of my life.
