I stumbled on this comment in a discussion about rF2 tires:
Try testing with the MAK Corp 962 mod. Its probably the most realistic rF2 mod ever constructed, using actual suspension geometries and forces with tire physics that have been refined through testing by actual former 962 drivers.
Most of the GT cars created by S397 are good, but those tires are already "detuned" a bit in regards to heating; folks are whining like mad with 20 some pages of grievances because the cars are "too driftable" when in fact they don't even come close to real world capability. I suspect thats got a lot to do with those who feel the need for driver assists, and definitely from those who've never turned a wheel in competition on the track.
The 962 dry tires heat appropriately when pushed. They wear appropriately when pushed. Wet tires don't, but that's something S397 hasn't really dwelled on in the core physics engine. It takes a lot more feel in the steering and throttle to drive these cars fast and they're a bit less forgiving on throttle modulation given the power and lack of driver assist. But once they've been mastered its very hard to go back to S397 GT cars, so beware.....
I'll revise this soon with a link to the cars.
