Trans Am Road Race Series v0.90 ------------------------------ This project started life simply as a learning exercise by me, and a desire to see some Trans Am cars in rFactor. This mod is currently only a beta and feedback is more than welcome. Please note that so far I have only tested this beta under DX9!
Installation ------------ Simply unpack the archive and copy the GameData and rFm folders into your rFactor directory.
Physics ------- Vehicle physics are very much a work in progress. I have not been able to locate any specific info for the real Trans Am cars, however as it stands these cars are fun and (for me) very enjoyable to drive. The Corvette from GTR2 and the tires from rFactor's Panoz were used as base, from which I have made some substantial, and not so substantial, modifications, including a brand new pm file. I welcome any feedback regarding the physics for these cars, particularly from those with better information than I could find. However, please note that I am not a physics guru!!
Models ------ All car models/interiors were created by Project Wildfire for the NR2003 PTA mod. I have not modified these models in any major way, except to make the rear wings and side mirrors detachable objects. The driver, helmet and drivers skins have been taken from Simbin's GTR2. The long term goal is to create my own, however these models fit well and will remain in place for now. The PTA driver model was not used due to a) its lack of legs and b) its too low-poly.
Sounds ------ The mod currently uses Corvette sounds from GTR2. If anyone wants to make some sounds for this mod, please feel free.

C'est dur pour Antoine qui a soudain trouvé son pantalon très étroit au niveau du pelvis quand il a lu le titre du topic, puis qui s'est vite trouvé trop à l'aise dans son caleçon quand il en a vu le contenu ! Dommage, ça mérite un bon mod Trans-Am, c'est pas les années mythiques qui manquent ...

this mod has 2 classic trans am cars, 69 barracuda and mustang boss...
I also think that we need a of classic TransAm mod for rfactor. with this idea, I've been converting a few cars GTLegends to combine with some that already exist for rfactor, to have something similar..

There is a basic mid 60's Trans-Am mod for GTR2. If it could be combined with P&G in some way, it would allow to have quiet good fields.
Then, with the add-on cars available for GTL, you can also go quit a way.
