    I'm not sure as to the legitimacy of this mod (after reading mixed reviews), but I downloaded it today and I was shocked at how good it handled. Blown away actually. The weight transfer in this car performs (in my opinion) absolutely top notch. The grip comes and goes exactly as I expect it would, counter-steering is really intuitive, and this car really makes you pay for mistakes. It handles exactly as I would expect a RWD rear-engine should. The model is not very flattering and it could use a cosmetic overhaul but it's passable. I realize for some of you this is an old mod, but I'm new to RF2 and this car drives just mind-blowingly good. I would rate it near as high as the virtually perfect Nissan GTR from ISI.

    No one has any comments about this car? I was hoping to do a Sunday Night Ruf Cup and I thought more people would be interested in this fun car. Is it perfectly accurate? can't say, but to me it handles more like I think a rear engine should. The Flat 6 is hugely popular and it handles more like a front engine RWD in my opinion.

    Anyway, for anyone interested, I will run a RUF Cup race (just for fun) this upcoming Sunday July 3rd at 5pm PST
    I will run the RUF at Tigermoth R2
    Car can be found here: http://radex.hu/public/alex/rf2banner/rfactor2files.php?melyik=cars-reader.php
    Hopefully a handful of guys show up and we can have a bit of fun.

    Maybe it`s because of this Mod is an illegal conversion...?

    How can I tell if it is? I didn't assume that just because I saw one post on the internet calling it an illegal mod that it was. Perhaps if it truly is an illegal mod, the moderators could delete this thread? Shame though, I like this more than the flat 6.

    It's not Converted from Cars or Ac because their Rufs came later than this mod.

    +1 ... from over few years some people take models from other games including mobile as well - Real Racing 3 ;)
    Profi designers or modders with 3D skills modify car poly :) shape, lights , wings , wheels , cockpit parts etc. and mod is "scratch made" with nice renders :rolleyes: :p

    btw. on ru site you can download models, textures for free from Cars, AC, Forza... mobile games etc. more than 1000 cars in total ;)

    so "DLC" is very very quick :) cost nothing or 5 - 10 euro :D

    The frustrating thing is that Simdreams site is still active, even 2 years after someone said they were illegal. Logically I would have thought this would be shut down asap. It's almost like I have to hire a lawyer to look into a mod (car or track) before using it.

    I won't promote this further as I don't want to endorse ripped content.

    ill tell you what else is frustrating. whoever did the physics for the original rf2 cars (at least the few ive tried) did a damn good job. but theyre either long gone or gave up trying.
