This is a small but essential QoL mod I've created for offline racing in pCars 2.
The car classes in pCars 2 by default are a bit game-ified, designed to artificially inflate variety in each class at the expense of realism. You'll see Ford F-150's share the track with tiny Ford Escorts, low-downforce prototypes appear at tracks outside of Le Mans, and IMSA GTP cars destroy earlier-spec prototypes from that era.
This mod provides a more authentic set of car classes that satisfies my particular brand of OCD, and probably yours too.
Installation Instructions
1. Install JSGME into your pCars 2 folder.
2. Download JDougNY's boot files for pC2, found here.
3. Extract his download into your MODS folder that JSGME created.
4. Download the Class Restructuring & Adjustment Patch
5. Extract the patch inside JDougNY's boot files folder.
