thanks for the links jtbo... great stuff. Particularly around tire data in the forum post. Didn't realize some of that was even available. I have a good idea of the pickup points on the rear of the new ford based on transmission blueprints. The wishbones and the front pivots are a mystery however. Would like to get actual data but it may be difficult considering the sensitivity of such things. Wish it was spec and things might be more open.

Hi Keith, yea I lurk around in here quite a bit. Lots of good things to learn. rf2 isn't the same engine as the first that's for sure.

Let me know if you need more data... If have some from an RF93. And I can probably ask for some of an Aquila FZ/FD.

MikeeCZ: are you referring to the Van Diemen or the Ecoboost car? Haven't collapsed any of the meshes yet so they are still not perfected although the Van Diemen is quite good but not cleaned up post collapse. The Swift is the only one that has a final A-load completed and textured. Will have the low poly loads to generate as well.

Bjorn: If you have any data available for the Ecoboost car that would be very welcomed. I have nothing on pickup points on the front suspension inboard or outboard. Very little on rear as well. No dimension data on wishbones, and no dyno sheets on the engine. In other words I got nothing so anything would be appreciated.

For the time being I'm focusing on the Van Diemen and Swift DB-1 and trying to get those working well in game. After those are completed and made available I'll swing back to hit the FC van diemen (wings) and try to finish up the Ecoboost car even if I have to use van diemen geometry.
 
just asked about this on the AC forum after seeing them go round bathurst -- really looking forward to this!

No EcoBoost here in Denmark yet... Sorry...
 
And hopefully there never will be ecoboost in Denmark...

Fireeyes - I work on a Mygale SJ07 that I could measure up? Might even have access to a Van Diemen RF06 - If i ask one of the other teams nicely. Are you still missing data? :)
 
Hi LasseJO - Yes I would be interested in Mygale SJ07 measures. That is a car I've wanted to do for a while but have had no access to in any way. I have all I need for the RF06 however. That one is well on its way.
 
Hi andylaurence, that's awesome. Ping me when you can.

BTW: brief update. Van Diemen is done with modeling and has all texture maps complete. We believe susp. geometry is accurate within 3-5mm ('06 wide-track). Currently completing PM/Chassis and other physics files before exporting to game. Will post of images when I have time although I may wait until I have more textures completed. Looks crazy with test texture. Work's been nutz with travel lately.
 
Hi fireeyes,

I can access to pretty much any detail data of kent and duratec van diemen rf9x / rf04.
Let me know what you need, I really want to contribute to this project.

Cheersssss
 
Hi Guys!,
Any progress?, would love to see this completed. I have a 2006 Spirit (duratec) if you want any measurements.
