So ive been compiling more and more data on the Toyota Eagle MKIII so that i can make it the best possible car i've done yet, here is my research so far. if anyone can find more and add to it, you would only be making the car better. and i will add you in the credits, just sign your name in the bottom of the text doc if you help out and want to have your name in the description.
This is just a Text document like notepad pretty much, nothing big.
if you do add to the Research data make sure it is for the Eagle MKIII (MK3) in its double decker form. not the daytona model. it looks like this
View attachment 884619 That was the highest downforce wing ever created for the eagle.
Even if you dont plan on adding to the Data, but you love old racecars, read that text doc, its not long at all and its amazing the specs on this car. like this should be better than the porsche Shortail and the 787B if its done correctly. i wasn't a big fan of old cars untill i started this project and read how unregulated old cars were. they were proper fast back then and very Clever. im only 26 yrs old so it just wasn't my time period and now i'm fascinated
Love cars of this era. Added some additional sources that include tire dimensions. Very much look forward to your final product. This car definitely deserves the attention.
An important note for this is that the above will only work if you have the following at the top of your lights config file (version 2 might also work, can't remember):
[HEADER]
VERSION=3
Brilliant!! That was the final piece of the puzzle, I couldn't get the on/off colors to work until I added the header. What a great community this forum represents.

So far I'm just at the mod/fix existing mods stage. Hopefully with continued help like this, I'll progress to the point where I can contribute mods of my own 💡
As an editor rather than a creator I find one of the most bizarre and frustrating things about the AC modding community the amount of over-modding a particular model gets for seemingly no reason.
The 488 Pista is just the latest example, I think there's already about 3 or so out there and from what I've driven, the ACR version is absolutely fine, better than that even, it's a genuinely good mod. But then Zari is also releasing a version, while in the background BZ Works is also remodelling and reworking the car. I saw on Facebook as well, someone is working on a 1998 Porsche 911 GT1... a car that is original content from Kunos themselves.
I know modders have total license to do what they want, but come on guys, have some bloody imagination! Look at the list of cars that still, sometimes very oddly has seen no conversion to AC, Corvette C5? (despite around 300 C6 variants...) 2018 TVR Griffith? Maserati Coupe?
(As this is the internet and someone will no doubt take this as a deeply personal insult, this is said with tongue firmly in cheek, I'm of course grateful for the efforts of all modders)
And as I posted earlier a Ferrari 275 GTB sure would be nice in stock and race versions, especially since most of the physics could probably be based off the existing Kunos Ferrari 250 GTB.
