We now have DTM 2013 (T5) cars

Greg Latty · Dec 17, 2014

I just got an email from URD saying that the T5 DTM mod is available now. If you have the egt mod its discounted. I ended up paying 6 bucks for it. Its actually not bad. Pretty good actually. Anyone else buy this mod? what do you think?

Just tested more of r3e's version and man those tires grip. T5 uses gt3 tires and I'd dare to say DTM tires are even stickier then that.

How does this mod compare to the DTM Experience for R3E?

in what way? graphically? handling wise?

Graphically its typical AC. Handling wise its a little tougher as its using GT3 tyres at the mo. Shortly they will add there own more grip tyres like the DTM Experience.

Its a addictive drive! in single player you can have some intense battles, and im sure multiplayer will be even better! theirs nothing like a bit of touring cars!

It's nice that people are doing mods. I'd rather see some Kunos WTCC/BTCC and Minis though.

Just not that interested in Formula cars (which is what DTM are with a shell), Supercars, etc.

The game is just gathering dust on my hard drive and has been pretty much since I bought it a long time ago.

I know, I should have realised that an Italian company would take that route - I'm just thick.

Based on your Mini preference, I would've thought the Abarth 500 held some appeal.

the abarth is lonely. it needs some company.

All we need now are all of the tracks so we can do a career mode

I would not mind paying for modded tracks at least as they look like the standard Kunos tracks. Im not into those ten year old rF1 conversions.
Anyways, back to topic. I'll buy the pack this afternoon. See what it is

I tried it - it just doesn't have the performance or handling of a MIni Challenge car.

I hope that's the case. It doesn't mean cars will be easier to drive, but rather simply higher corner speeds.

I meant the handling mainly

I bought and tired this mod, and really awsome perfect for my driving style

I hope We have lot's of club races

Ricoow · Dec 24, 2014

Basically I feel like these cars lockup too much, but it could also be me and my silly default setups.
WIthin 5 laps I destroy my tyres and have so much flatspots that I need a fresh set of rubbers.

Love the mod but really need some tips on braking these machines... Both setup as technical wise

Brake earlier LOL. DTM, like Formula cars, do suffer with lock ups if you're over aggressive, but I think that this mod needs to tone it down a little, as you're right it is too easy to destroy tyres at the moment. I've tried changing the pressure on my Fanatec brake pedals, etc but no joy yet.

I brake at 60-70% of max and still lockup inside wheels a lot

BMW and Merc drive like it should, i had a problem with Audi, wheel lock up almost at any speed, i know how to setup my load cell, so looks like problem with this specyfic car. Anybody?
Pedals recalibrated before, all cars in stock setups.

Still no rear view?

Galin Dimov · Jan 14, 2015

After the update, I really don't like how the cars drive and before was much better. The cars are just sliding now and not fun at all. Is there any plan for proper DTM tires instead of the GT3 tires we have now?

Nathaniel Dwayne Hale · Jan 14, 2015

Cars are sliding MORE now? i thought they were sliding too much before? Chris Harris said that these cars stuck to the tarmac like glued. He complained the racing was too sterile. And they've made the cars less sticky now?
