More achievement than just mere try, I'd say. 8 or 9 years ago, somebody made a subsim-skin for Papyrus' NASCAR 2003. You are assigned to the job for AC now. Neal gives you the design details.

There are peop0le complaining that is AC you cannot drift, or that it is so difficult to drift, and that game X, Y and Z have you drifitng already by just entering a turn, and how much fun that is. Or they complain that car A and B and C in Assetto corsa have so weak engines that they bog down immediately and loose too much revs when being in a drift.

Nonsense! Ypu guys just do not know anything about how to do it! Nor do I...

But this guy knows for sure. His video gives evidence for all to see in unconcealed clarity that you CAN DRIFT in AC. And that it is difficult to make the car drift, and that this is how it should be (drifting with control is not that easy at all in reality).



Needless to say, when I drift myself, I do it involuntarily most of the time.

Thanks. Should be relatively easy if I stick to individual panels for logos, the problem I have is the template has a smaller door which cocks it all up.



Do you have any screenshots of the Subsim NASCAR?

I saw that drifting video last week, he makes it look sooooo easy. The only drifting in corners I do is straight ahead with the wheels locked up!

I already looked it up, both in the forum archive and my mod-DVD for the sim, but it seems that I never made any screenshot, or it got lost. It was dark blue and black, had "Subsim" and "Sonalysts" logos and names over it, and "14" (my birthday) and "Skybird" as driver's name on the sides. Maybe somebody reading this recalls it.

I did not find the thread where it got discussed, must have been 2004 or 2005 I think. Nascar 2003 and Papyrus gives results when using forum search, but not the one needed.

Anyhow, I was just kidding you. Because if you do such a skin for one car, you are in danger to start a flame war over people complaining that you made it for this car, and not for that one. I recommend to not expose yourself to that terror!

Let's wait for this Friday's presents. I hope it is not more of the modern Lotus cars. I do not like that rubber car's handling too much. Unfortunately, they seem to have made a nice licensing deal with Lotus - there will be more lotus cars in the final sim than any others, including a second historical one.

The current Lotus-49's physics are saids to be not completed so far. So that Lotus will change as well, at least perceptable to the knowing (which I am not, I avoid that thing currently).

The three new cars this Friday likely will be:

Pagani Zonda R
Lotus 2-Eleven
Glickenhaus P4/5 Competitizione

No word on the two new tracks.

Great, another Lotus! Still, it should go better than those already in.

Quite looking forward to the P4/5 but I bet it's a handful.

Tracks are rumored to be Mugello (great, I like that one and hoped for it) and a Drift Circus.

Download hopefully starts any minute now.

Herr B, I think you will find yourself in Lotus hell once the full 1.0 has been released. Plenty of Lotus models are homing in on your system.

Not a rumor, but confirmed, I just found the official video teaser for the update:



Second showroom added as well. And plenty of tweaking, tuning, functionality enhancing.

Mugello's nice, a lovely long straight.

I was drifting in the 458 last night, with TC off the wheels were still spinning up to 5th gear. Disappointing amount of tyre smoke though. I hadn't planned on drifting, but a 458 without TC just invites it.

Beautifully mopdelled Mugello track! A piece of beauty and art, embedded nicely in the hills of the landscape. Very beautiful. And a nice track to drive. Lovely update!

Just that the Ferrari Italia has lost preview graphics and two of the three default colours is what itches me.

The new showroom is looking great!

Downloading now, 1 minute left.

Edit - all looking good so far. That new Lotus needs the drift track for sure!
