I finally downloaded the Turbo Mod, installed it and got it running. Man that was some ordeal :(

Anyway, it is a great mod if you like turbo F1 cars from the 80s. It is very different from driiving the modern F1 cars :)

Thumbs up -^ from Dave

how big is the MOD Dave?, would it be worth it for me to download it ? (im using 56k).

damm, so many good MODS to download, but i think i may have to stick to GTR 2002 as its too much using a modem:'( :help:

Matt, it is 77.6MB and needs a clean installation of F1 2002 to work. Even then I had to do a separate installation of F1 2002 just for the Turbo Mod and renamed some files so it runs off the F1 2002 exe in that installation.

It is a real hassle to get working properly :( but it is great to drive.

What cars have they got in it? Is that 1580hp Mclaren Honda in it? That car had 1580hp in qualifying tune. It was awesome.

The engine I believe was a 1.6 litre quad-cam 32 valve V8, with turbocharging. Unfortunately, when they did expire, they usually did so in a spectacular fashion,

Chris it has the McLaren, Ferrari etc - all cars are from the 84 to 88 era. I find it very different to drive and quite challenging in its own way ;) Lots of fun, but I am not in a position to comment on how realistic it is :rolleyes:
