    Won't they give permission to S397 to update ? If not shouldnt they take them out of the promo vid as they are not really running or looking like official content ?
    Or maybe they can open them so that someone of the awesome modders who could or may want to could update them could ?

    In an earlier thread Marcel Offermans confirmed that these models would not be updated. If I find the thread I'll put the link.

    Anyway, these cars can be used in rfactor 2 and they work well (considering they are made in DX9 and don't have the latest version of the tire model).

    They do work but are not optimised for VR , their textures are blurry and as you say their tyre model is dated which are all sad but I guess we will never get some official road cars .

    Yes, it is. Studio 397 is focusing on the world of competition, I don't think they will work in road cars, unfortunately.

    The saddest part for me is the fact i've had a taste of how good it can be and that most of the work is done and now its to be left is an unfinished state :(

    What do you call the Panoz Roadster or AC Cobra? You might call them abandoned, but they are both official road cars.

    I would like to see more road cars. We have the totally-not-Top Gear Test Track but no reasonably priced car.

    That could be a competition in itself!

    The way the new trend is with ACC coming, road cars are politically incorrect it seems but yeah, we're all not pro race car drivers and have no idea what a GT3 feels like or could care less. I got into sims so I can push the limits in cars I've drivin before and understand first hand.

    Sometimes it reads as if older content, that isn't updated to latest tech makes the game unplayable or crash. Sure it would be nice to get some updates, but it is not the end of the world and most of the older content is still perfectly usable. I still run the Group C cars at the VLM Mid Ohio, wich has a slight issue with the albedo mapping for the guard rails, but it is still very immersive and perfectly fine to race with that content.

    Recently giving rf2 a whirl again and bought the endurance pack (like the direction it's headed).

    But please, s397, can you consider updating Belgium 1966 so it has proper rain, etc. That track is still wonderful and it's a real downer that it's not updated to the current feature set.

    the nsx and c6 need a graphical and sound(!) updates but i would prefer the physics as they are now.
    maybe someone with experience in graphical and sound modding could ask for permission to update them? not sure about the nsx but the corvette files are encrypted. but please, dont touch the physics! or atleast offer a version with only sound and graphics updated...
