    No, I want to release the Class A and Class B together as one thing, the Calss A needs tons of work as of now and the Class B needs minor revision and mesh edits.

    For future reference the [WIP] at the beginning means Work In Progress: Thus unless the creator is odd or hasn't realized it yet it should be unreleased and work in progress

    Than there is a WIP Beta Released, I hope you can fill yourself in on this one.

    Happy forum travels.

    It looks like it needs dive planes and front louvers for added realism, just so the front end doesn't lift up at high speeds similarly to the Mercedes-Benz CLR incident at the 1999 24 Hours of Le Mans qualifying. The model looks great otherwise.

    I agree, although I think he is planning to add a front splitter, and the vents on the hood are angled to add downforce as well as direct air into the radiator. Group C cars didn't have dive planes, it was a bit too early

    Agreed, looking at dive planes, absolutely too early a time period for those.

    I like the new exhaust route a lot, but are you planning on adding some air outlets behind the rear wheels like you have on the front?

    There may be up to a two day period of no progress, I have to install my new Cpu Cooler, my temps hit 105C today on my old crappy thermal paste, but why not just get an upgrade from the cooler all together so my 85 load temps don't slowly destroy my thermal paste?

    I5-3570k

    Tj.Max 105c

    My 2nd core hit 105C the rest 95-100C very dangerous temps. for a non-heatwave time period over here.


    Thanks stock Intel cooler, thank you very much 3 year old thermal paste now I have the temps equal to that of an I7 in a 90s case.
