Thursday Nights fun racing / Re: Season XX - Ford vs. Ferrari (not quite)

Shhh! don't tell anyone but I'm using a different car.


After seeing it confirmed with Bacchlums times that the FX was the quickest of the lot, I've had to rationalize the tyres they are using, also as I'm fekking about in that era with the Jaguars, Maseratis, and Ferraris.


Haven't uploaded the changes yet. Stay tuned.

:o :o Hadn't shared it correctly.  :-[


Long nose is identical bar 0.05% less drag and a tiny amount of side force from the fin. Different model that came from RD originally.

Got the Driver animation pretty good but the 1955 driver I've used doesn't seem to work with shifting anims.

I have a problem with Lift Off oversteer, other than that I like it.


With today's nearly final update that should be fixed.

Potential new format for some, not all, Flattop Thursday nights.

Starting around 7:30pm, depending on my impeccable timing, the night goes straight into a 100 minute race session, to finish just after 9:00pm.


Good for longer tracks.



Overall winner. (or most laps)
Fastest lap


At least four competition cautions to replicate the four races we usually have.
Cautions can be called by anyone at anytime to help us continue to be racing each other all night rather than strung out.
Catch as catch can, if you get a large lead you can, at your discretion, back off to let others catch you, again for the racing.


Not required to be driving for the entire 100 minutes, come in late just join in, need to change setup then go to the pits, need a piss & piss break go ahead then come back and continue.


Higher tyre and fuel multipliers and perhaps more damage.

Thyne will, will be done.  ;)


You like to give me stuff to fix up. Don't get me wrong it gives me something to do. A distraction from plotting to take over the World.  :P


RMi = remarkably mediocre innit.  :-[

Rear tyres had their load sensitivity backwards. That is they increased their grip whilst loaded instead of decreasing which is the norm.


We'll see how it affects the car, please download the patch from above.

 They're at it again, here.

VeeDub Fun Cup.


New New version needed as I had to fix the ride heights vs spring rates. As I discovered a mistake in the tyre files.

“The thing my mate drove started its trickery with a 12-volt battery poked into a six-volt casing – illegally of course,” Tuckey wrote. “He cut the tops of the front suspension towers to get the angles right and heated the banjo (diff) centre in a big press and bent the axle (housing) to get two degrees of neg. The tailshaft was ex-Customline, with the heavy-duty yokes machined to fit the Holden. He had an alloy flywheel and a big Dodge Six harmonic balancer to stop the habit of breaking cranks at $150 each. Some of this, of course, was legal and even the mainland guys bent the axles.
“But I don’t think they had spare wheels made out of fibreglass…he used plastic putty to make a mould, cast the wheel and painted it black. It would hold about 5psi of air to give the tyre substance. The boot, when they inspected the tyre, looked beaut. It was all upholstered in hand-stitched leather. The scrute's would say ‘lovely’ and shut the lid. What they didn’t see under the leather was the whole rear bulkhead cut out and replaced by one diagonal brace and the floor pan replaced with fibreglass. Only that brace held the two sides of the car apart.
“The back seat was just a spring steel frame with the trim stretched over it and would collapse if anyone ever sat in it. But nobody ever did because three of the doors had their handles welded shut, mainly because all the door and window mechanisms had been taken out and steel rod welded in to keep the glass up. There were even little fibreglass lock buttons (glued) in the holes – in the locked position. Only the driver’s door would open and had everything working. The floors had their centres replaced with fiberglass and painted silver underneath (to look like steel)."

Two re-engined Maserati Tipo 61s, one Ford 289 V8, the other a 3.0 litre Ferrari TR V12. Both based on real cars, but here massaged slightly to give identical performance.
