Slipstream effect and fuel load

[Raymond van Soest]

In the realism options, you can change the slipstream effect from 1x to 5x. Does anyone know if the change only affects the player, or does is affect the AI too? My other question is, if fuel usage is turned off, does the fuel load still have an effect on top speed etc? Thanks in advance

Fuel load if usage is off the fuel your running will still effect the car. So if for whatever reason youbwant to turn this off then most likely youd be wanting to run min fuel of 1L.

Regarding slipstream I rarely run with AI so have never tried it. In MP its not an option but it should be fairly easy to test. Run a track like Monza 66 with default set with AI at normal slipstream then try raise it. Take note of how much it effects you and then also if your noticing AI get a gain with it higher. I would assume it should effect all cars but only kunos knows how its coded.
