Here is a new mod for Rfactor, with download mirrors provided.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Team GSMF proudly presents the ADAC VW Lupo Cup 2003 Mod
Together with Matthias Meyer (http://www.meyer-racing.de) ex-Lupo Cup driver, we developed this mod with very realistic physics, sounds and graphics.
In this case, you are only able to change the tire pressure in the setup menu, like it was in the 2003 Lupo Cup.
The fact, that the VW lupo has a very short wheelbase and only tire pressure can be changed, you have to set this car up a bit different as other known
race cars.
This front wheel drive car normally has a huge amount of understeer, to avoid this, real Cup drivers increased their rear tire pressure.
In the Mod this means,that a front pressure of about 175 and a rear pressure of about 210 will help to decrease the problem of understeer.
But a negative aspect of this high tire rear pressure is a very "unstable" car under braking and lifting of the throttle. Here you have to find a good
balance of pressure and driving style! The tire heating is also very closely resembled to the real cup lupo. A smooth driving style will avoid (over)heating
of the tires, and a good throttle control is needed, because the front driven tires will develop much wheelspin, even when accelerating in 3rd or 4th gear.
That´s the theory, now lets drive!
Matthias Meyer and Team GSMF wish you alot of fun with this new mod
