Scorpio 3D for Racer car sim

Well, this is my first post on this forum so I guess I'd better say hello to you all and apologise to admin for letting my membership go for so long before posting Wink
 
This wasn't my original reason for joining but read on...
 
I've been creating a 3D computer model of a Scorpio Ultima for the free downloadable car simulator, Racer(www.racer.nl), an excellent ongoing project; everything about Racer is free and this is a high quality model with realistic physics, it has taken me about 8 Months (yes, 8 Months, these things take time) to get it to the release stage and I'm keen on some feedback from real people rather than the kids who argue about whether it is or isn't ugly. The model thread is at: http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?t=262741, you will need to install a recent version of the Racer car simulator to use the model, otherwise just look through the thread and at the screenshots and tell me what you think.  You can drive it around like a real car, even better if you have a wheel and set of pedals, it has lots of physics data taken from this site and photo textures taken from my own Scorp.
 
Hope you like it.
 
Regards, TiberiuS Smiley.

im going to try to tweek the suspension & the brakes a bit (the *.ini file in the folder), it rides TO high and the brakes are TO bad... And the cornering scilles are a bit wierd, i realy think the cornes can bee done mutch faster irl ( in real life )...
 
But other than that, its FUN.!  
Sounds like a scorp then u floore it and it reves past 4000rpm...
 
Its made for free by our friend TiberiuS.! its amasing.!  Grin
 
BTW, does the cossie have 6gears.??

It has 6 speed in the game 5 for going foward and 1 for reversing, te real cossie has only 4 for going foward and one for reverse....
 
hmmm...int's pretty nice to play a bit with the ini file, also we can make a 2.0 and a 2.3 liter model.  
 
PS: i think the brake lights pulses as the the abs is on....
there is also an option for TCS

4 wheel drive version anyone?  Grin
 
Most impressed and the drag strip that you can access from the pit lane is pretty cool also.  
 
This has the potential for hours of harmless and maddening fun Cool

Tip.
 
for "cheating" to a perfect suspension just transfere the suspension setup from the Skyline...
It does'nt feel like a scorp anymore thoug...
 
Got two car.ini files on the scorp now, one superb racer, and the originale scorp feeling setup..  Grin
