To me the main problem with the Raceabout is the existence of the LXes. Whenever I want to drive a roadster, I always end up using the LX4 or LX6. I just love the Caterham look&feel.
My only chance to race with the RAC is to join a server allowing only the RAC or Fz5. But if the LX6 is also accepted. No way !
Why? he's not allowed to skin whatever he wants? I remember back then I skinned some skins for S2 cars, so what? Nothing wrong with skinning a car... Just because he is demo huh....
People have dreams you know... So what if he stares at it with the CMX viewer? Theres nothing wrong with that, I stared at the CMX back when I was DEMO.
It's not like you get to look at it a lot while racing either, all you see is part of the bonnet maybe.
I've made quite a few skins myself, and you know how many I have used? Maybe 1 or 2. Hell, I don't even have most of them in my lfs skins folder. I like making skins, designing, working with photoshop etc. If he is into graphics, design, wants to learn and practice making skins, then why not.
Again I've had some spare hours today and made this McLaren ('96 version) RAC Ofcourse it's not an exact replica but I just used an '96 picture as reverence (with barcode instead of the Marlboro name). I used this website to make the barcode, as Marlboro is 8 letters I filled in 8 everywhere and the barcode on the skin was the result. (as there already is an Rothmans and Camel RAC).
