I've been workin on these new physics for a while now and a few of you have had a go with what I have doe so far. Personally the cars have always felt a bit lifeless to me
The thing that has struck over the last 3-4 years is how crisp the engines sound in a modern Superstock and how hard they rev. By that I don't mean how many revs they can pull but how quickly the are able to build thos revs. The torque/hp curve that I put into my new physics files was based on a satndard Nissan VH41 engine with a bit of guestamation about where they may be once worked. However following a conversation I had at the Superstock GP with one of the drivers (someone who has achieved on the national stage) I realised that my guesses were not quite where they needed to be.
This afternoon I was finishing off the cahnges to the damage that u guys requested and I decided to have a play with the engine settings while I was in there (as you would) I'm pleased to say that I seem to have achieved what I originally set out to do. The cars now have less peak torque but the same hp the difference is that both peaks are higher in the rev range. I also have played with the engines inertia figures to make it rev up quicker. I have to say these things absolutely bleedin ROCK now. The car is no faster (in fact it maybe slightly slower) but it feels like it is goin a whole lot faster and u feel like u are really in control of a beast instead of a slug.
My question is do u guys wanna try these things like this or would u ratherjust have em as you already do with just the damage fix and nothing else done. I know some of you have been workin hard on setups and I don't think that the changed engine values would affect htat at all......u woulp poss only need to look at gearing to allow for the lower torque but that is all but I can absolutely assure you it would be worth it
Let me know what u think
