WIP Beta released Formula R car - inspired F1 2.1

I agree, it's simple and iconic a very good start to do a Closed wheel car

 

BUT he said "definitely not nascar"

 

Raider are you still taking skins? If you are going to add into pack I will make more.

 

make a classic indy 500 car like the lotus 38, that would be pretty awesome

 

Do it yourself, it would get done faster.
Download the TS67 mod, it looks very similar.

 

Please stop begging for other mods! @Raider has done a lot of work for the community by creating this mod and we should be happy and gratefull if he continues to improve it further.

 

That's true, actually.
This mod is probably the most innovative car mod in this game.
It's the only open wheel car in the game, actually. A really good addition to the world of modified road cars (which basically are all the cars in this game)

But, once this is done, it would be cool to see if Raider was to create another "different" mod.
Instead of a modified car, a track only car that turns one direction would be a pretty cool addition to the game.
This car would be about pure speed, overwhelming tension, and exhilarating crashes. And that's exactly why I like Nascar.

But, this mod is far from finished, yet. It needs refinement and a more detailed model.
It's best not to rush Raider, since he is taking his time trying to make this mod as perfect to reality as possible.
But, again, once he is done, it would be pretty cool for something like this to be implemented. Not that it is a must, of course.

 

I agree because new additions to this game would be pretty nice.

 

You clearly haven't been here for long, there have been several open wheelers including the TS67 and the DSC bora. There have also been (i think) upwards of 10 buggies and offroad vehicles. RacerGuy24 has made 2 and he is working on a 3rd to my knowledge. Currently though, i think Raider's F1 is the only one that fully functions and is supported in game.

 

Right.
But, uh, well, I see that Raider's mod is the most refined one of all.
I don't think that many cars signify the importance of downforce more than Raider.
As a matter in fact, I actually have a Pigeon STi-G. Whoops.

 

If you haven't noticed from the last page or so of this thread, currently the F1 uses ultra grippy tyres to mimic an F1 car but this is not how it should be. So Raider has allowed me the opportunity to create some accurate and working downforce and aero for this vehicles so that it should handle similar to how an F1 should.

 

I didn't know you're working on the downforce for the car. I knew it had downforce problems but not that improvements were at hand. So it is some day gonna get updated and be more realistic?

 

Sure is, I posted a zip that adds some of the downforce files that i improved and added adjustable downforce to on one of the last pages in this thread but i messed up the front downforce so it understeer's A LOT. So beware, it is not very fun to drive using those files but they do work.

 

This mod is incredible. The only thing I don't like is the front wing. The rest of the car looks kind of 80's f1 but the wing is ultra modern. Would an optional standard wing be available?

 

Update with stability improvement is currently awaiting approval. It reduce spikes.
About skins:
I want to segregate all skins, you can send me skins. I will select best skins to mod and create a pack for rest of skins.

 

Raider updated FR16 with a new update entry:

Stability improvements

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

I Think it should go a bit faster, considering it cant top at like 200 or more, but that's my opinion.

 

It's quite realsitic as it is. There is a HUGE difference between 200mph and 200kmh.
200mph is equal to 321,8 kmh.

 

Yea but useually most F1 Cars can top out at like, 251-252MPH irl.

 

Depends on from what year and what engine that speed record was done with. This F1 car is from 2006 to 2013 era of F1 racing which means that it uses a v8 engine.
