Marugen Okami Cup Plus

DESCRIPTION:

Quote :

Based on the BTC1600 Version of the Lupo Cup (BTC1600 Bilstein Tourenwagen Cup) but with a little more power, and a slightly wider rear track.

The suspension geometry is modified, but with the BTC1600 geometry as a basis (information obtained from VW motorsport's BTC1600 build spec files from the mid 00s) And an original Japan Lupo Cup car. Input Help and feedback also given by Japan VW Cup driver Hiroki Ueda on Access racing simulators.

Fuel Tank moved more to the rear for a better weight balance.

**It's very tail happy on cold tyres as the real car is.
Inside rear lift on corners as the real cars (abs is there if you want to turn it on)

On some tracks you will need to bias the brakes more to the front. *EG, west hill, first corner the back will step out under heavy braking.

Still a WIP , feedback welcome.

sorry, 1st mod. said I needed a thread before submitting.

A few more exterior shots, still some details to add.
Namely the rear hatch handle, some gap lines for front bumper etc is on the skin only.
But still a WIP.

Based around the Lupo Cup (BTC1600 Bilstein Tourenwagen Cup Spec *plus)
the BTC1600 version was a modded version of the lupo Cup car with around 200 - 220 hp. ITB, suspension mods and airjacks also used in this formula.

This version has a little more, larger 16in wheels to accommodate bigger brakes etc.
The 3D model is made by Benny at Axesent and is still a work in progress.

Race car only ***

I haven't been on the LFS forum since around 2006, so forgive me if I'm a bit rusty with attachments.

There is also a short video at

We've spent around 4 months building testing and tuning so far, but we're almost ready to submit.

Cheers!!

Very nice mod, I found it to handle very well! Great!

AptitudeX has put allot of effort into this site, and effort to get a few people together in a team environment. I myself am NOT religious. I have my own views....But this is a great place to hang out. Like he said if you dont want to talk religion on the forum, thats fine. .. Just get into it and share your knowledge and crap on about LFS!!
so......you don't have to be religious, get in there just to play the game and make friends
