Cars Ford Transit 2005 (WIP)
- Thread starter garyjpaterson
- Start date
Finally!!! I've been looking forward to this for so long
Well there we go, the ultimate cringe. Been wanting to do something like that for a while, but its harder than it looks! Sorry the audio levels are all over the place, I don't really know what im doing.
Anyway I hope you enjoy, even if you have to skip to around 3 mins or so to just watch the lap only Should be a reasonably good example of a quick one (couple mistakes), beating what they managed on TG (before they started to modify the van with weight/drag reduction etc).

Superb Gary, really I'm thinking roll on Friday
Can I ask will there be a template, so I can persuade a skinner to do me a simple skin?
Yep there will definitely be templates (2d and 3d)!
I can't calculate the hundreds and thousands of hours and miles I must have driven in one over 40 years, so it's a nice bit of nostalgia for me. Although this one's a lot posher than any I ever droveYou all do realize it is still just a Transit right?
I never drove one so I'm really looking forward to it
And thats why I give myself a few days after its 'finished', always something I forget to add.
Stopwatch appeared to be 'floating' before, now has its own AO mesh to make it look more natural.

Woops i missed this one!
Few things worth mentioning having watched it:
1. Its RWD, not FWD! This is a serious racing establishment. FWD has no place here
2. Be sure to shift up somewhere between 3-4k rpm, I tend to do around 3.6k. Waiting to the redline will do you no good at all!
3. Less than 100bhp? Bit harsh, more like 135
Awesome little review though, appreciate the kind words!

One more, will add all these to the first post soon

Kiveco is such fun with cars like this, it's the only track I love to drive the Porsche/Maserati SUVs at.
oh I wanna be a youtuber now! so jelous
Yep the dashboard clock is spot on now as far as i remember, had multiple ones of that type between 02, couple of 54s and 55s and only the 02 had the old style the later ones all had digital clock between dials and the little hole in the centre of the cab which was perfect for putting your lighter in
Is it true this masterpiece is coming out on Friday?

Is there any specific time tomorrow when we can expect a release of this beauty?
Really are keen, eh?
Probably sometime in the morning but we'll see.
