This looks awesome, and I'm about to install it and try it out.
I read your statement about getting support, and becoming known in the community. My recommendation is to join AC modding forums and Discord channels. Exchange information, help others, and share a few quality mods that stand out, maybe 8-12 (as you've already started). That would help you establish a "name" and reputation in the community, it might take 8-12 months or more, but when the time is right, you can set up a pay site or Patreon with monthly membership payments to get access to special mods or advanced releases. Also, create update videos on a Youtube channel and release WIP images, but don't "tease" the community (read more below).
I've seen a few modders either go straight to "pay mods," with virtually no reputation and/or are very inexperienced at modding, or "tease" a mod by only showing photos and video of it, and require some unattainable goal before it's released, like a Youtube channel subscriber number goal, or a certain number of people sign up at their Web site, or join a Patreon. They never reach their goal because they aren't "known" in the community, and nobody cares because they know nothing about their modding work. Another modder occasionally shows up in forums asking for help from community members, then turns around and puts his mods behind a pay wall. He shouldn't be surprised that a few weeks later, someone else in the community releases a better-quality mod at no charge.
In your case, I know you've released two other awesome mods, so I know this will be excellent. You already have somewhat of a reputation for excellent mods. Just put your time into participating in the community, and let fellow members of the forum or Discord channel know who you are (but don't "spam" the group), and your popularity will grow even more.
Just some ideas to think about and try, and good luck with your future progress and work. I can't wait to try this in VR!

Uhhh... For some reason, I went to drive this car and was greeted with a "Driver Model Missing" error in Content Manager
Hmm thats weird. I can't really see why right now. So was it just that notification or does the car actually not work ?
The car uses a default driver model so I don't know what is causing the error
The race gets canceled and I can't drive the car
It seems I get an "unexpected error" popup in the loading screen too...
Oh thats terrible. Never heard of an issue like that before. If you get behind what is causing that, let me know please
Did you install it manually or did you let CM do it for you ?
This is pretty cool car, really interesting design and a blast to drive.
Personally one feature I dislike is how the tinted windshield makes everything look dark. Could you maybe change it so that it appears tinted on the outside but is clear from the inside? At least an an option.

btw I made a Ferrari skin for this car. https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/scuderia-ferrari-skins-for-formula-vector.40946/ It's just not right that no one has made skins for this car yet when it's been on RD for like 4 hours
Sweet Ferrari skin Its no different then the other cars i made really. Using the same driver pose from a Kunos car. And nobody else seems to have that issue. So it must be something on your end i think
I rarely use CM to install mods
i want to help you any way i can this car is fantastic
Thats nice thank you. Stay healthy
