What's with the sewer hatches at Silverstone?

They stick above the ground at the kerbs too much and when you go over them they destroy your car almost as if you hit a wall. IRL cars go over them and they are flatter than the kerb it self.

Why post a video of another game? If you wanna show us a bug, show us the bug.

This is an IRL Onboard to show that you can drive over these hatches. There is no point of showing how it is ingame. If you drove the track you have experienced it if you know how to hit an apex. The red hatches are right next to the kerbs... Most fast corners have them.

You can google for more. Or you know...actually play the game and see for your self. It's 100% reproduce-able with all cars and conditions.

Ok thats not right. You can ride over those pretty much at full speed IRL as seen in the first video. I never noticed that in FM. Seems i never cut the corner this much yet. Then again i rarely drive on Silverstone

They're not "sewer hatches", in real life they're "speed pads", raised bits of concrete to destabilise a car taking too much beyond the kerb, an alternative to "sausage kerbs".

They'll wreck the floor of an F1 car IRL, and anything that's as low as a prototype is toast IRL too. You have the ground clearance, they'll wobble you but won't do your suspension much good, so the idea is you don't cut beyond the main kerb and avoid them.

One of the few things they actually got right in FM

I like driving over them. Car make funny noise.

That wasn't the goal.

I had no interest in driving that course when it was posted. These are discussion forums, for people to discuss things. Don't get so upset that people asked for some footage.

Also, do keep in mind it's wasteful for dozens or hundreds of people to go do the same thing. When one person can show everyone else.

No need to reply. I'll avoid you going forward.

That's very good info on the real thing but I don't see how it's done right in Forza, considering I can hit it with a 67' Mustang that has 30cm of ground clearance.

You have no interest in playing Silverstone in the game but come here to "discuss" it on the "discussion board" and since you refuse to play the game your self I am obligated to provide you footage of something that can be replicated within 30 seconds of opening the game? And what would that achieve? Convince you in the existence of something you obviously don't care about?

I do appreciate you avoiding me in future instead of wasting my time with your laziness and ignorance.
