Fixed races cars in NFS5, maybe as addons

[JeffR]

I'd like to see the race cars fixed, or second set of cars added to remove the detuning done to the race cars by EA. I've always wanted slicks for the 550, but I'ld also like to see the gearing efficiency for the Moby and the GT1 raised up to 95% (same as other cars) instead of the current 65% and 70%, plus a bit more grip so these cars come closer to the specs as stated in the game and in real life. The Moby is supposed to be able to do 0 to 60mph in 2.8 seconds, according to the game specs for it (and also in real life specs), yet in the game, it's more like 5 seconds. Because of the physics limiations in NFS5, it will never do 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds, but the grip for the Moby and the GT1 with slicks should be much more than the 95 turbo to be realistic.

When the view from the Moby and the GT1 starts looking close to this real life video of a F1 car, then they would be fast enough to be believable.

I can hear the anguished cries already. ^_^

I say go ahead and make the changes.

Yep,they can replace Yankee Stadium,tear down the London Bridge,and move it to Arizona.Hell,even the Queen will be replaced someday,but probably not in our life times. ^_^ But to openly muse about tampering with PU,a 5 year old PC game? :eek: Heresy! Look out behind you,Jeff,wood is being gathered for a bonfire,and you're the guest of honour. :look: :p :D

Jeff, you are the man indeed to start up fire's my hat is off to you. Could not have said it better Geezer.
Now for my thoughts as if this means anything at all, 1st of all I allways try to call changes made to anything, enhancments not cheats. Secondly I have allways said it ok to run enhanced cars in my pits with but 1 requist, to let me know they are enhanced so that i can turn off stats so they dont interfer with none enhance stats. Thirdly when one does not inform me in my pit they are wanting to run enhanced, but run it anyway then this is upsetting and I call the Driver a cheat. One must remember that only the Driver him /her can cheat. There is my 2 cents on the subject.
:beer: 2 PU of yesterday , today, and far beyond tomorrow

The Geezer said it better than I could've....

I'll even donate a somewhat better 914 model if you want to improve that aspect of the game...

My comments about the cars had nothing to do with cheating. Make them seperate "add-on" cars. I rarely play NFS5 anymore anyway. What was the point of including race cars and then detuning them, both power wise and grip wise?
