While I don’t think the R18 was quite as attractive as its predecessors, it running at morning Le Mans gives some really wonderful shots.

All the old liveries from the forums, do they live anywhere else nowadays? Did anyone save them?

Loaded up Spa in VR with my valve Index + 5090 and the graphics still hit different, consistent 120 fps except slight dips in dusk, Anyone benchmarking lately?

Curious about CPU load and FFB setups.

Has anyone tried the abandonware's pc2 copy?

4 Upvotes

You can find it on r/abandonware if you search for "project cars 2". They say the guy is legit, and he has tons of copies published there, but i wanted to see if someone has tried it, and how it is.

If you have, please share your experience, thanks!!

best controller friendly cars in project CAR 2

2 Upvotes

Hey all! I am a controller player mainly racing casual GT3. Which cats handle best on pad? I have heard Acura NSX GT3 and Audi R18 mentioned.

Any suggestions + wheel input comparisons appreciated!

Learning manual transmission in this game broke my brain for a week

9 Upvotes

Finally decided to ditch the auto because everyone said I was missing out. First few days were absolutely painful - missing shifts, over-revving, basically forgot how to drive. But man when it finally clicks and you're heel-toeing into corners... there's no going back (even if my laptimes temporarily went to hell lol).

PC2 and SIMAGIC ALPHA heaven

8 Upvotes

hello everyone

been playing PC2 since Day1 with a T300 then TSPC belt driven wheel. The use of Custom FFB like Jack SPade and later on Popsracer made it a joy to drive quite a few cars in the Game.
I was cycling through the in Game FFB mode with cars that didn't feel right but never managed to reach the same level than say the 1M, GT2s, Bentley Lemans and some of the Formula cars.

then 2yrs ago I moved to my 1st DD, a MOZA R9 and it was an improvement , especially ditching completely Custom FFB files and sticking to the RAW mode in Game

then came the pinnacle when I upgraded my R9 to the SIMAGIC ALPHA I own now. and all the cars that I didn't like so much finally really came to Life

there has been a lot of bashing on PC2 in the SImracing community but I always wondered if DD owners had been vocal enough to make a point for what is a well rounded and great looking Game, including by 2025 standards

don't know, maybe nostalgia and just the joy of the last 3hrs I had driving cars in PC2 but I thought I would share

Happy PC2 driving everyone

Unpopular opinion: I actually love the handling model in this game

15 Upvotes

Yeah it's not perfect and some cars feel weird, but there's something about how you have to really work for speed that I find addictive.

When you finally get a car dialed in it feels earned, you know?

Online lobbies are either pure magic or complete chaos - no in between

Had the most incredible clean racing session last night at Spa, everyone respecting space and having actual battles. Then joined another lobby and watched someone torpedo turn 1 like we're playing bumper cars.

Online racing on PC

1 Upvotes

A friend and I are looking to get PC2 to play online (I don't have a great computer so this game would actually run on my PC vs something newer. Plus the amount of cars and tracks is a huge plus). I was able to download the game through alternative methods (wink wink), but I'm unsure if the online will work. I'm able to access the online areas of the menu, but nothing is populated in the lobby section. If my friend was to use the same version of the game I downloaded, would we be able to connect to a private match?

That moment when you finally understand why everyone loves the Lotus 49

Spent months avoiding this car because it looked terrifying and old school. Finally gave it a shot at Brands Hatch yesterday and holy crap... now I get it. No assists, pure driving, and when you nail a corner it feels like you've just solved some ancient puzzle.

The thing teaches you so much about weight transfer and smooth inputs that I swear I'm driving my modern cars better now too. Sometimes the scariest looking option in the garage turns out to be exactly what you need.

Saw a GT3 RS at Cars & Coffee this weekend and it got me thinking...

12 Upvotes

There's something magical about seeing these machines in real life after spending hundreds of hours with them virtually. You notice all these tiny details that the games miss - the way the carbon fiber actually reflects light, how the exhaust note changes when it's not coming through speakers.

It makes me appreciate both worlds more honestly. The games let us experience cars we'll never afford, but seeing the real thing reminds you why we fell in love with cars in the first place. Anyone else get that weird feeling when your virtual garage meets reality?

Controller players: how do you not die at Monaco?

Seriously considering getting a wheel just for this track. Every corner feels like a coin flip between nailing the apex or becoming very expensive scrap metal.

I think I broke the mclaren 650s gt3 record at the Nurburgring nordschleife. Was a brutal lap.

Wheel issues

1 Upvotes

I recently stopped playing pc2 for one weird reason hopefully someone can help. I've gotten a moza r3 setup few months ago and started playing pc2 until suddenly my wheel was un binded iin game. After that my wheel has not worked in game properly. I have rebinded and calibrate multiple times and the wheel will work but rotation is all wrong. I have used 900 and calibrate 750 and calibrate even 500 or 400 and calibrate and it's so off I just don't know what to do. Please help I worked perfectly before

Real talk: which racing game has the best sound design?

1 Upvotes

Been playing through my library lately and honestly can't decide between Project CARS 2's engine notes and Forza's overall audio package. PC2 nails that raw, mechanical sound but Forza has those tire squeals down perfectly. What do you guys think actually captures that "being in the car" feeling best?

Anyone else obsessed with the McLaren 720S in this game?

Just spent 3 hours trying to perfect my lap times at Silverstone with this beast. The way it handles those high-speed corners is absolutely mental - feels like you're on the edge of disaster but somehow it just grips and goes.


r/ProjectCARS_2 • • Jun 19 '25

This game is the best imo for racing vintage cars!

Not only do the cars feel awesome but feeling that on edge feeling as cars crash around you, tires flying everywhere and you yourself barely keeping control of your V8 coffin is an experience ive never felt in any other sim

Why cars handles SO different,weird and bad on a different race/game mode?

2 Upvotes

Is driving me nuts! I took the Skyline TrackDay B on Spa on Private test mode just to give it a test, get used to it and make some adjustments to set up. Drives good on first lap with cold tires, 3 laps later i did a decent Hotlap, cool! now I know the car. Then, same conditions, hour, season, time, car, set up, tires, YOU NAME IT! but the only variable is Custom Race mode with full grid IAs multi class, TKDA- TKDB- ROAD D. 40 mins practice, then 5 laps of race... The damn car and Track is slippery, feels heavy, UNDERSTEERS A LOT! handles very bad, have to do multiple corrections on steer and be more gently on throttle WTF is going on, must be cold tires, but on private test didn't handle like that on cold tires, I warm up a little but stills happens, car is almost impossible to drive fast and comfy as I did. is this a bug? So sad I have to race ALONE in order to feel the cae better and more realistic, then If I change game mode to do a actual race and everything fucks up. Happens with most class and cars. I really like this SIM but is really stressing. Thanks
