6e66o’s very popular Best of rFactor 2008 mod & track compilation video is now available as rFactor intro video version.
Just replace the “PreGame.bik” in your “MovieFiles” Folder with the new one you can download below, the video will play for every mod that does not have its own into video.
You can preview the video below and decide if it’s worth to replace the original intro, it is a vast improvement to say the least though.

Team LMT has released their first ever public mod for rFactor, bringing Ferrari's F60 Formula One car and the 2009 version of the Singapore Grand Prix to the simulation. Driven by Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen, the F60 was Ferrari's take on the new rules introduced prior to the 2009 Formula One season. Despite being equipped with the promising KERS system, the car failed to make an impact on the world championship. Along with the car comes the 2009 version of Singapore, Formula One's first ever night Grand Prix. The team's first public mod for rFactor was helped by many modders who ...

@Vkt
Why don’t you post links to your favorite ones so we all can decide?

Yeah, Vkt, post other videos, please.
And keep in mind “best” in this case is a matter of opinion, not an inarguable fact ;)
I based my opinion on 6e66o’s video on all the other videos, especially simracing ones, that I’ve seen in my life. And based on that this one is one of the best for sure. It’s not perfect, as an artists I don’t believe in such thing. There’s always room for improvement, otherwise if you think you’ve done something perfect then you might as well go do something else the rest of your life ;)

Oh, and using the word ‘propaganda’ is quite daring to say the least and quite sure it’s not appropriate here. So probably won’t help your cause, Vkt ;)

This is a rfactorcentral competition, not a virtual r competition, we all know 6e66o makes good vids, but posting them here, and drumming up support for his work, obviously with the help of this sites owner, isn’t giving the other competitors a chance, you don’t see them posting links to there work on sites like this.

Wow, building conspiracy theories right here, huh?
First of all, I posted 6e66o’s vid for the simple reason that it’s excellent work – And if you check out the comments here or on Youtube, you´ll see that other people will agree.
Second, the rFactorcentral video competition is not judged by votes so how will “hype” help this video? You really think whoever judges this competition gives anything about what’s on VirtualR? If they would, they wouldn’t be good judges.
This site is meant to serve the sim racing community and if somebody makes a great video to replace rFactor’s dull one it deserves to be shared.
Plus, just like with mods, I can only post what I find. 6e66o runs a good blog which certainly helps him spreading the word on his work. I simply don’t have the time to dig Youtube hours a day to find other videos. Just like with the mod news, I´ll post what’s available.
And last, just to point out, the winning videos will of course be shown here – Regardles of who made them.

Well said, Montoya :)
There’ll always be some sort of conspiracy theories around things people care about. Not every person, or site, is required or even expected to make sure they give equal exposure to everyone and everything. Sites and blogs like VirtualR are in fact private, but aimed for all of us (simracers) to enjoy. Of course rFactorcentral is expected to remain impartial or give even exposure if deciding to promote the competing videos. Of course the creators of the videos can post them on rFC and anywhere else for all of to see. If you really want to go further you could blame 6e66o himself for making his video public. But as Montoya pointed out the winner is not decided by voted, but by a panel. Which I had forgotten actually. And this fact makes this whole discussion pointless :D
This reminded me of a nice little line in the latest BSG episode by Saul Tigh:
“You point a finger back far enough and some germ gets blamed for splitting in two.”
Not the most fitting quote for this, but it’s still worth remembering.
