The online racing simulator
MTX Tatra V8
The MTX Tatra V8 was designed by Václav Král in 1991. The plan was to produce a limited series of 100 units, but only 3 prototypes were made and 1 kit with no engine and gearbox. Front pop-up headlights are from BMW 850i, front sidelights from Maserati Biturbo, tail lights from Tatra 613, ignition key from Škoda Favorit... just MTX things Big grin

I've bought this 3D model by sdmodely on CGTrader. Sadly it is too high-poly to be imported directly into LFS Editor so I had to decimate it a bit. I will try to fix some topology issues but overall it looks pretty good.
