Excellent work! I really, really love this car.

One slight problem, though, and I know this has been answered before, but still: It is quite impossible for me to get the tyres up to temperature. I drop them to 16 PSI, increase camber, raise air temperature to maximum and drive on the very twisty Padborg Park. Still they won't heat up, while the real life models don't seem to suffer from the same.

Maximum lap time on Padborg Park also seems to be 1-2 seconds of what's possible in the real thing, but that is most likely due to the tyres. I hope you'll have chance to look into that in the future, it would make an excellent mod outstanding!

6 years that I play Assetto Corsa. So many years of testing many mods. This one is without a doubt the best I have tested. The mod is fun, beautiful, the details are present, the physics are excellent. In short, top mod, to test as soon as possible!
PS: for beginner drivers, this is a great car to learn to make up for mistakes.

very nice and fun, but i suspect there is something wrong with the tyres??? They never get hot, I tried several laps on Nords / Fonteny and they always stay cold at around 57-63 degrees. I tried less air / more air / more front camber but nothing seems to work. Any solution on this?

as written, physics is 99% same as before, so wait for 2.0 once we improved the physics ;)

As mentioned by others, the tyres don't warm up and it does sound like a Praga, but otherwise a wonderful car that gives that unique caterham feel around short to medium sized tracks. Physics, mesh details and textures are spot on. Thank you!

This is one of the best mods that I ever tried. So much fun driving this cars. If we could have more skins to make a proper grid it would be superb. Many thanks!

Just excellent in any way: Steering/feel/roadholding/oversteeriness in a good way and graphically top notch! Thanks!
Cheers

Gorgeous car and definitely my favourite out of all of your Caterhams. Too much power (but only just) combined with great handing makes this fantastic to drive on long, twisty tracks / roads. The inclusion of the data folder also enabled me to modify the drivetrain.ini so I could use my h-shifter rather than paddles. Thanks for all your hard work!

Glad you like it! I think i like this one a bit more too, it is like all the improvements i made on the others, gathered into one car. A bit more power, a bit more slidy, but more manageable than the R500 ! I prefer h shifter too, but wanted to make it like the real thing

How cool. Balance seems realistic. Car needs more power, have seen dyno showing 205bhp per Caterham own rolling road nr Thurrock. Revs limited to 7500 in real life. Slip streaming needs a bit more effect. AI need to get a lot closer to each other. When we race its nose to tail. Having said all that this puts the hairs up on my spine and brings back fond memories. Yes some of the named drivers are that aggressive in real life!! Cheers.

hey glad people still enjoy this :)
i wish i had time and knowledge to finish this in 1.0
some day... maybe not XD
in the meantime, we put as much real life value in it as we found. And the power is per restriction :)
i have the model for the 420 street, which would have 210bhp, but same story, needs time and knowledge...

Really excellent job and car. Great handling and fun to drive. Only one point, the ai should be stronger, no probs to get first from last in imola within 3 laps on 100% strength in imola. I'm not the fastetst guy out there, so i don't think its my driving ;-)
