Yesterday I saw an interesting video. Paul Radisich testing 3 versions of the Mondeo Supertouring car (1994,1995, and 2000)
Maybe it contains some new informations for you. He describe some parts of the car, or maybe the cockpit sound is useful. If not? Then I put this here only for enjoy it!
I found a public FB group dedicated for STW. There is a lot of pictures.
www.facebook.com
And here is a webpage where you can find photos from DTM, STW, etc...
Categorized by year, and by drivers! So it is very good for skin makers.

There is a massive good new content for me on that site.
I surprised, when I saw the Opel Astra F 4-door sedan is participate in STW with Marco Werner. (I know it run in class2 in DTM 1993, and I know the other Astras in south-african and portugalia, but I never saw this, with this wing:

And after that I suprised too, when I saw some good quality photos from hilclimb races, where hungarian drivers started in the 80's

that Astra is cool !
not that surprising given how good of an engine the C20XE was (like look at the Spiess made F3 variant. AN easy 250 bhp from those 2 litres). Chevy still used it in their WTCC cars from 2005 on.I surprised, when I saw the Opel Astra F 4-door sedan is participate in STW with Marco Werner.

I just started getting into mods on AC and am absolutely in love with these BTCC cars. Primera was a bit tough to figure out at first but so satisfying to drive. Because of these mods, I got down a bit of a 90’s BTCC rabbit hole and came across these articles I linked to below.
Mostly I was researching steering ratios (which I found zero information about) - they seem incredibly quick especially on the BMW. Formula car quick! Don’t get me wrong - I have full confidence that this is accurate and true to life in the mods, confirmed by on board video. Mostly I was just curious if this was because of incredibly quick steering ratios or a lack of range because of the tight fender gaps they ran. You can see a lot of video where guys get tapped and the car snaps around with no hope of saving it because they run out of steering. Anyway, I’m going on and on but the point is the mods capture the essence of these cars so well it’s almost scary. With that, forgive me if they’ve been posted before but good reading nonetheless:

Wow, that Laguna is already looking fine. Keep up the good work!
Did the Laguna had the exhaust in the middle? An oval pipe. That's the most iconic I remember though I bet there are with 2 pipes like that one, probably 1999 season.

Image preview didn't work but I'm very much looking forward to seeing the finished product! The 1993/94 BMWs had the best liveries in my eyes.W.I.P. 1994 BMW Motorsport Team Schnitzer BTCC skin
Yeah, the car was also the 318is, but hey...
Car Skin 95%
Driver Suit 80%
Pit crew, Pit Board and Helmets to do
(x3 - Winkelhock #1, Soper #2, Ravaglia #21)
Thanks, edited. Will probably do the 1993 after, as the rear flag livery will be transferable.

Oh yeah... now that's nice! 93 I think looks even better than 94 so I look forward to that!
So the Volvo is out.
If anyone wishes to create their own sound mods or just wants the files for their own curioisity, I have linked below the two sound recordings we did of the 1998 TWR Volvo S40 in wav format.
2017 file was done with a Zoom sound recorder, the 2018 recording was done using the same sound recorder but with an external RODE mic (but its in mono - although the file itself is stereo - just duplicated channels). The reason for doing this was because the internal mics on the sound recorder only have an SPL of about 105 and it was peaking a clipping a little, so I bought a RODE mic with an SPL of 130 and I was able to place the mic much further forwards near the bulkhead.

Close to releasing the Livery. Will package 93 and 94. I'll then update suits, helmets and pit crew at a later date.
@Patrik Marek please let me know if you are happy for me to include your blank tyre textures that I've put the Yokohama logo onto with these releases. Thank you!
