NR2003 Ferrari 330 Classic mod

Haven't seen anything here about this (though I could have missed something). Downloaded it last night and (for me) has the best (non Nascar) feel with the NR2003 engine yet. Still in beta but has its own physics including 5 speed boxes. http://www.theuspits.com/sims/nascar_racing/330.html Cheers Tony

Thanks, Tony ... but if the illustration is any indication, shouldn't the mod be called "330P"? (There were a number of Ferraris w. "330" in the designation, both road & race cars; it refers to the individual cylinder size of the Lampredi-designed 4-liter Ferrari V-12 ... but there's only one 330P - the GT prototype from the late 60s.)

I have no knowlege of the nomenclature of the time, but the mod does feature two distinct cars, the closed top and the open cockpit. Does that make a difference if the P is used or not? dave :) henrie

I think the full title is Ferrari 330 P4 Mod... "Steve Smith" wrote: > Thanks, Tony ... but if the illustration is any indication, shouldn't the > mod be called "330P"?

Hadn't heard a word about it here either. Tried it last night after reading your post and liked it a lot. Lighter but a bit slower than the TA cars. Handled great. Nice cockpit view too. I think you could have some tremendous online races with this mod. -- David G Fisher "Tony Rickard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6Oscd.10082$[email hidden]... > Haven't seen anything here about this (though I could have missed > something).

I tried it today. Really impressive given the limitations of NR2003. I think the GPL65 Ferrari sounds are excellent! Hoping Achim can muster up a setup. The three included need work I think. Hope to see some guys online. -- Asus P4P800E P4 3.0E 1Gig Corsair XMS 3200 AIW 9700 Pro SB Audigy 2 ZX Platinum BRD Speed 7 BRD Rally V2 "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Hadn't heard a word about it here either.

Hi Dave, The 330P4 was avail in both open & closed top versions (the "roadster" was simply missing a small sheet of aluminum covering the dome of the roof). The 330P3 coupe ran in '66 (its first race was the Spa 24-hr., as I remember), a year when Ferrari had its greatest success in sports cars with the little 2-liter Dinos. In the first race of '67 (Daytona 24-hr.), the mighty Ford Mk. IVs all busted their trannies, and the new P4s were first and second (a re-engined P3 was third). The #23 car pictured in the mod's illustration was the winner. A P4 also won the 1000 Ks of Monza, but Ford won the Championship. Chris Amon ran a more-or-less stock P4 in the Can-Am that year (and Pedro Rodriguez ran one in early '68). The Ferrari "612" that showed up at Las Vegas Can-Am (the old Stardust circuit), was essentially a rebodied P4 with a monster 7-liter motor. It never won a race. --Steve "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Very Cool, thanks for the info Steve. dave henrie
