These will be available soon as v0.1 I've got a new .exe done already, and, my god, 1100bhp @ 18,000 rpm feels bloody amazing. Imagine sitting on a rocket as they launch it, and that's what these feel like hehe To counter the huge amount of power output, and to make the driving more fun, I've lowered the amount of grip the tires have when you accelerate or brake. Of course, if you hit a kerb and accelerate at this point, you're completely buggered as you spin happily into the wall. To me, this feels extremely good. It's not too loose, and you don't feel like you can just throw the car in and know it'll stick either, and this is what slicks are all about. I've also increased the weight to 650kb to account for the extra two cylinders the engine would have, plus the fact that the thing needs to be heavier anyway so it doesn't take off Aero is pretty much the same, although I am looking for a compromise where you don't get to the rev limiter in record time with long gear ratios, but where acceleration is representative also. Once this is done, the physics will be available for testing along with the new .exe

Sounds good Just in case, how hard would it be to make a similar config but for a V10?

It doesnt sounds so good for my driving style, I guess But if this is how a car wearing slicks should behave, its OK

Cool, in that case, I can't wait to take a look. If you want to, I could whip a quick carset that features the new stuff for everyone to test without having to be bugged about modifying Gp4.
Just a reminder though, I'd ask you not to make this physics too wheel friendly and forget about the keyboard users. If you can balance it, it would be ideal.

Well atm, they are a touch slidey in the corners, and I'm no real judge with keyboarders, hence why I'm releasing them for feedback Here's the link to test them anyway. I clocked a top speed of 236mph at Monza, which is pretty realistic imo www.megaupload.com/?d=E0BE40BB

I clocked 373kph last year, so it's not that much. I expect we'll be clocking around the same once we get to Monza this year.
I'll test it tonight after college.

No feedback? to be honest I havent downloaded it because I was worried about some problems I could have by changing the .exe... I dont know how to revert back the things to use other mods So I decided to test it after this season But if you point out how I could do it safely and avoid problems with WSRC carset, I can check it
