    Tried everything, but I can't get auto shifting to turn off on the MP4/8. It's off in the settings, but when I go out on track, it starts auto shifting. I even press F7 and cycle through until it says "auto shifting off" on screen, but the car still auto shifts?

    How is the mp4/8 compared to ASR mod ?
    the ASR mod has many skins for a full grid, and physics were awesome from reviews.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLaren_MP4/8:
    The McLaren MP4/8 was a Formula One racing car which competed in the 1993 season. It raced in all sixteen Grands Prix, scoring five wins. The engine was a Ford HBD7 3.5 V8. Thanks to a watershed use of electronics technology that cars used in the 1993 season, the car was designed by Neil Oatley around advanced electronics technology, including a semi-automatic transmission, active suspension and traction control systems that was developed in conjunction with McLaren shareholder Techniques d'Avant Garde (TAG).[1]

    Tried the mp4/8 and mp4/13 on new Zandvoort and Sebring respectivly, and what a blast ! They both feel and drive awesome.
    The latter is really tricky for me as it spins easily on corner exit (no aid enabled) and I usually drive slower cars.

    You have to turn off autoshifting from the "general" tab, while on garage.
    This worked on my side ;)

    Thank you.
    Probably the only type of vehicles i would pay to have.... but you decided to give it away for free. Now i feel the urge to buy something, even not interested, in the store to show support in this kind of action.

    This should not be turned off as Marcel Offermans said at 18:30 in the video below.

    Thanks! I have yet to download the cars, but from the screenshots I have to report that the helmet position of the Mp4/13 is all wrong (you made it too high, while in reality neither Hakkinen nor Coulthard covered the air scope, and too tilted down). It makes my favorite ever car look weird. Hopefully, that's easily fixable.

    For reference, this is how helmet positions looked in real life:
