CART 1986

http://www.drivingitalia.net/forum/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=7437

Anyone tried this???

I looked at that mod, and it's like it's a F1 mod from the 80's with lowres CART skins on it. Maybe someone will enjoy these on road courses, but it's useless on ovals, since there aren't the wings for it.

It is a horrible mod

Yeah those look like ripped F1s, nothing to do with the real shape of the 1986 champ cars.

Nice thinking, very bad execution

it's the ram-hart skoal bandit formula 1 from the 1985 mod.

Definitely re-purposed F1 models. 

Shame, I reckon I could have some fun with it offline if the physics are any good, but haven't tried

Too bad but it wouldn't be a big big problem for me if the physics/sounds/skins were great, after all the cars looked a bit alike (the 1985 RAM is a good choice I think).

In 1985 you had mainly two different Indycars on track (Plus testimonial version of previous year's March and the Eagle), so I don't think it should be that hard to model those. And I would really like to see such a mod  What about starting with that Alessio?

I have been looking for 1985 March schematics, no luck so far.

Did you try the Marchives site ?

TY Will check this out...

I know they have lots of ressource online, including official factory documentation and so forth, but if they don't have what you are looking for online you can always try and drop them an e-mail you never know

would be primitive to say its crap but look abit further were they come from
i know LE is here a swear but those physics are superb , ( Dave Purdy) an excelent base to start a He and those 85s looks awesome now with hex his corrections and chiefwiggum updates

did the cart 86 cars used turbo engines

Yes 2.65-litres turbocharged engines Dale Coyne used a stock-block atmo Chevy V8 iirc but all the others had turbocharged engines - mostly Cosworth DFX, but also the first in a great line of V8 Chevrolet Ilmor engines and also the odd V6 Buick and V8 Judd too.

Instead making a patch-up job, it will be better to do a great model from scratch Why?

Because we can do everything when we can model and there are less and less from scratch modeller

I can't access the thread, I'm not registered in that forum. Were the physics done purposedly for the mod, or ripped from an F1 mod?

Cosworth all the way!

Or rather, just a few Buick's, Coyne's stock block, and the Eagle-Chevrolets I'm not really sure about what config they were in. The Ilmor-Chevrolet and Judd-Honda projects started in 1986.

Yes of course ! I was thinking of 1986 for some reason (wishful thinking I guess )

I haven't tried them on track, but I opened the files and saw many things I didn't like. Maybe cars feel great later however, dunno

I have 1988 March, Penske and Lola model drawings if there is ever the time to get around to making 3d models.

with a friend of mine we released some cars for 1984 CART (F1 Challenge 99-02 Game)....
