Hi fellow drivers,
after the last Formula One 2009 race today at Abu Dhabi, the server will be changed to the now available Formula One 1993 mod.
Two tracks will be uploaded at first: Kyalami and Montreal. Other tracks may follow soon. Please not that there may be an updated version of the Kyalami track soon as well. I'll inform you when it's released and uploaded.
Download links:
1993 Cars: Download Version 1.1 here or here + Patch from Flash here
1993 Kyalami: Download Version 1.0
1993 Montreal: Download Version 1.0
Car behavior:
Just some small advices:
In this mod the "Engine Boost" is nothing else than "Fuel Mixture". A higher setting means that you consume much more fuel, but also get more engine power from it (but remember that there's no refuelling in the race in 1993!). A higher setting does not mean that your engine might expire earlier.
1993 cars behaved totally different from nowaday's cars. So some new approach to creating your setup might be required. These cars had a lot of understeering and you might find yourself lowering the ride height to deal with it. That's not bad though, just look at this video. 
Our League mod for the next season?
Please leave your comments if we should (or shouldn't) use this mode for our next season.
We would have the chance for rather similiar circumstances as in the real 2010 Formula One season because the rules are rather similar: 26 cars, no refuelling in the race, narrow front tyres and ... Michael Schumacher 
In my opinion, this is one of the best rFactor mods of the last months, although (or perhaps because) the cars are not as easy to handle as the cars of the 2000s mods.

You will need to deinstall the V1.0 anyway (sorry, I forgot to write that). The 1.1 is no patch, but a full install.
Sorry, no other links for the 1.1 at the moment.

I just found an alternative download link, but don't know if it's much faster. Try this link.

I had a first try yesterday. Could not really get to grips with it. The stange thing is that you get a weight penalty (big one) when using aids like TC and ABS. I did 1:21 witout aids and 1:25 with aids like ABS and TC. Wierd stuff. And 4 sec behind mbm is not what i was looking for

Weight penalty? How do you know that? That's really strange indeed.

Someone who was in th server told us. And looking at the times he is right.

lol, at the beginning, I was unable to be under 1.25! so I worked a bit on setup and I've done 1.21
after that, mike_P F193 tell us that if we were using aids we have got weight penalties, this mod is made like that and it's a great idea. Then I put off all aids and I was in 1.18.5. but my car was very difficult to keep on track, I tried mike_P F193 setup, made some adjustments for my driving style....and I made 1.17.5
I will send the 1.17 setup at all drivers, everyone will get a good base setup.
ps: can I take Senna seat please ?
