Description (Click to toggle Visibility)
This mod was made to represent what you would find at your local short track on a Saturday night. No big name sponsors or big name drivers, just grass roots stockcar racing.
The purpose of this mod is just that. Give those without a lot of oval experience a chance to bang around on a short track, learn a little about mechanical grip so they can apply what was learned here to TPSCC, VH Stockcars and SCE.
Its also fun for oval vets too. These cars allow for side to side racing with a little serving of contact.

DrBrown54; they dont work very well on dirt tracks. Our league has ran these for awhile now and tried a couple of dirt tracks. I can only assume it has something to do with either the tire files or it might just be the lack of grip period on dirt tracks. If you keep them on tracks 1/2 mile and under they are a blast. Our league has run them off and on for the last year or more. www.racefms.com

How do these cars all handle on the dirt tracks? I would love to start a street stock league for dirt with these bodies but I guess I need to download this mod and try it out a bit. Good job guys, from first look the stuff looks like its great.
