Ferrari 408

It was the first Ferrari with AWD system. Only 2 prototypes (red and yellow). The Yellow was designed to test the self supporting frame.

Hey!  You're doing very well with producing new cars!   I would like to feature one of your cars in R4K in this season at some point. Which one do you feel you have worked on in most detail or that is readiest for a tournament?  We still have a couple of pending races already planned, so there's still some time, but if you want to prepare one of your cars, the one you feel is best optimised in as many aspects as possible, we can include it. In general, among the faster cars, it's better for R4K also, because being OWOOT means that tracks take longer to complete for the same number of tiles, but it doesn't have to be a bullet either

All my cars need improvement (look the gauge of the Mythos and 408) because I learn new thing each day.

Why not making a poll and we work on that car particulary ?

Yeah. Really cool how many cars you have made in such a short time. I'm still working on my starting line truck. I want a open cabin for the showroom model, but I have had some issues with.

I also find the performance editing of the Res file tricky. I use carblaster (I think it is still the best for that purpose) but there is a lot to take into consideration when you edit that.

You can use CarWorks for editing RES files only, if you like, without having to load shapes or anything. The convenience is that you can edit parameters as what they are instead of byte by byte. It will fail if the RES file is sorted differently, but so will Car Blaster. The resources have to be in the same order as for the original cars. Otherwise, they need to be re-sorted with Stressed first.

I made a spreadsheet excel. I enter the torque, weight, dimensions, max RPM, torque RPM, HP RPM, the speed I want on each Gear... And it calculates. With an hex editor, i put the values. And After with carworks, I finish the torque curve.

That's smart...
I hope to compare them to each other soon.
