I'm not sure if you have tried this. It looks promising and most cars feel very good (realfeel compatible.)

Yeah this mod is great. Graphically its a bit poor compared to some of the other mods, but physics wise if you have RealFeel set up correctly its up there with Historic GT. :)

Loving the Sports 5000 class.

Nope, and I'm not going to bother after reading Niels' post on the LFS forums (http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1237158#post1237158).

QuoteBut LFSers playing the Enduracers mod I don't understand. It is about as far removed from LFS physics as you can get with silly tires that really just don't exist.

When you go from 0 to -2.5 degrees camber, a real tire does NOT gain 20% in cornering grip. When you go a few degrees beyond peak slip angle, cornering grip does NOT plummet.. However, in Enduracers, these two things happen.

IMO it is exactly mods like these that keep LFS players playing LFS, and rightly so. BTW, i'm only on the physics here, the models and sounds are aparantly great, which is also rare in rFactor, so thats very good. They're also NOT converted from F1c which was converted from SCGT which was converted from REVS.. So many good things about the mod, but the physics aren't even remotely realistic.

Nice models, great sounds, physics are guff.   :ranting2:

I hope the guys take the criticism on board and do something about it. They have put years of work into this mod, but as usual its the same old rFactor mod story. Pretty but thoroughly unsatisfying to drive.

Makes you wonder why they bother putting all that effort into it, when the cars drive like crap. :sideways:
