    UPDATE 0.961 released! Please download from steam (if you already subscribed mod will updated automatically)
    http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=847990920&searchtext=
    Change log:
    - Flexible Chassis (huge improvement to old suspension model!)
    - MUCH BETTER FFB (more detailed with tire locking and losing grip)
    - Cars are no more understeering
    - Cars responds much better to steering
    - With new suspension cars height can be lower and looks more realistic
    - Weight transfers more realistically (you can use brakes to transfer weight much better)
    - New engine models to all cars (Ferrari and BRM has different engines like in real life and Cosworth engine has minimal differences)
    - Wings are more realistic (old wing setups had almost zero effect on speed
    - Mclaren has now 6 gears (like in 1975 season)
    - Cars are much better balanced to each other (races look more realistic and car behave more like in real life)
    - Cars now have different mass (old cars had same mass for all cars)
    - Suspension tweaked in every car
    - Radiator keeps engine now cooler
    - Ai is much better passing other cars (dont know why, but most likely old default setup was not good for AI)
    - Minor changes to engine life time
    - Tire wear reduced (tires are same, but default setup is just better for front tires)
    Please download from steam:

    Im very happy about the progress of this update. This cars finally drive like they should!
    Don't hesitate to give more feedback in future too!

    Thanks for feedback I have got in PM! I have some very good conversation and beta tester past 2 weeks so big thanks to whole community!

    Lastly I want to remind that, some of you thanked me for how good this mod looks.
    Reminding that I have NOT made these models.
    They are made by TEAM CREW and ChiefWiggum to rF1. So all thanks should go there!
    And mostly ChiefWiggum is reason why these cars look so good as they are now!

    Remember to delete all previous version if you installed manually!

    Yes, thanks Postipate, just took the 961 update cars out for a spin, cars do look more realistic sitting lower as they should and handle better too, you can really push the cars now, still has a bit of upward chassis flex under acceleration, but no big deal, all in all good update.

    You got good point there chief! and thanks for feedback Default setup could be bit higher, but ride height can very much of the track. Just see this video of 1975 silverstone:

    some cars are very low right there, but would imagine driving that low on Nord or Monaco would be suicide attempt.
    Watched some data from my mod and bottom hit ground few times on some tracks.

    Next update will come with bit higher default setup

    With older suspension model riding this low was not possible without some serious problems.

    Gotta say the latest update has these cars rockin'. Excellent work on 0.961. I feel much more confident when cornering with these now. You can really give it some.

    Thanks very very much! I released this mod quite early to get feedback and seems that it was good decision. Without any feedback mod would be same as it was month ago.

    I don't have Driver Body's, is this my Fault? And I have seen that Peterson and Ickxs don't have a Visor. some Visors have a Stripe with Sponsors on the Top, like Ferrari "Marlboro", or Tyrrell "elf", but I think there is something wrong with the Alpha Channel for the Visors, the stripe is same transparent like the visor

    It's my problem. I will make animated arms to all cars in future, so I removed old ones.

    Visor will be fixed. It's my fault!

    Yes, but these are easily replaceable/adjustable in AMS to something much closer to rF2 default. Can't adjust the other way, though. I use a "natural" SweetFX profile in AMS to avoid the oversaturated look.

    Hopefully dx11 for rF2 will make miracles. Most likely not.
    Gasoline smell would awesowe with VR! :D
