Setups for ALMS Mod Racecars?

Hey guys..... I was looking around for some basic setups for the cars in the F1-2001 ALMS mod....Porsches, vette, BMW's....and couldn't find anything. Maybe I didn't look in the right places? Anyone know where to find some basic setups for these cars? Do the FIAGT car setups work (for cars that are the same as in the ALMS mod? I would think not...since the physics between the two mods is something different....but I might be wrong about that? Thanks, Tom PS: I'm suspecting the Boris and a few of the other ALMS drivers might want to take a run in their own cars.....even though sitting in the Panoz simulator. So, just want to be prepared....if that should happen.

Thanks so much for your help, Ed. Perhaps the "yaaaaaawwwwnnn" is for Boris, though? TP "Ed Solheim" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3ce1549e$[email hidden]...

Not to change the subject on you Tom, but have you tried the JGTC mod for F1 2001 yet? If you're not familiar with it, it's based on the Japanese GT Championship, and can be downloaded at www.yellowgarage.com. I think you would enjoy it. These cars, installed with the "Sander's Physics" option, really feel great to me. Of course I have no real life experience to base that on, so I would love to hear your opinion if you get a chance to try it. To me they have as much feedback as the FIA mod but are more controllable (perhaps due to lower power?) and they recover well but do not feel glued to the road like in the ALMS mod. Very nice.

Whoa, spoke too soon! Not all of the vehicles are controllable, that NSX is a real handful! Try the Supra though, it feels great.

Haqsau.... I have not installed the JGTC mod yet....but plan on doing it as soon as the ALMS event here at Sears is over. I did try the FIAGT mod.....didn't think much of it and removed it from my race box. However, I understand a "v2" is out...and I should give that a go as well. Isn't Doug Arnoe (spl?) behind that one? His work would have to be first rate. I like the ALMS mod....mainly because those cars run here in the USA, and I've raced with many of the current ALMS drivers. Of course, I'd like to see the ALMS mod add the GTS and LMP675's and LMP900's......then hopefully they'll start building some of the tracks that are so glaringly missing (the US road courses). The physics on this mod are not bad....especially if they settle on the "grip" issue and lower it. My understanding is they'll do that in order to release the GTS cars (which will be based on the GT car physics parameters). We'll have to see. I've heard very good things on the JGTC mod - from both a graphics and car physics standpoint.......and will give it a try as I said. However, those cars don't have a personal appeal to me.....I don't attend races in Japan....you know? Don't know the drivers either....lol... Too bad the V8 Supercars sim is such junk. Those are great cars and the Aussie drivers are some of the best I've seen handling high-octane V8 racecars. I don't think I missed a race on Speed Channel this past winter (their summer). Our own Winston Cup drivers could take a few lessons from those V8 Supercar drivers! No doubt! And, I was looking forward some of those great Aussie tracks (Bathurst....the most). Dang it!

OT: Some bloke posted the URL to these great photos of the Fuji JGTC event. http://www.h3.dion.ne.jp/~itazura/JGTC/ http://www.h3.dion.ne.jp/~itazura/JGTC/fujibackdrop.htm I can imagine driving around and going "Oh, what a beautiful view! Oops, I'm supposed to be braking here"

I race the NSX... Got to tweak the settings a bit but 1:23-24 at A1 sounds OK no? Cool Mod! "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:abscn8$kpi18$[email hidden]...

Ed, if you don't like the mod then why don't you just shut the hell up. I am just glad there are guys out there who make a better product for FREE than the crap the publishers puke out. FatnSlo

And what the heck does this has to do with the ALMS mod for F12001 (or any other mod. for that matter)??? -- ed_ "FatnSlo" said: > Ed, if you don't like the mod then why don't you just shut the hell up.
