CART carsets
Some small fixes to liveries for 1995 carsets. I don’t remember what exactly I’ve changed but small fixes was made while I worked on 1996 IRL carsets.
NEW part - IRL carsets (Cars (IRL) on my google drive)
1996 season
Three carsets updated with my lola 1995 carshape fix are available:
3dirl1996 – general 1996 IRL carset by Claudio Rementeria
Indy1996 – 1996 Indianapolis 500 carset by Claudio Rementeria
irl96 – general 1996 IRL carset by me based on work by Claudio Rementeria. It has some driver options to better simulate grids for Disney World and Phoenix races.
irl96ls - carset by Claudio Rementeria for to 1996 races of 1996-1997 IRL season.
1997 - 2001
I know I’m in minority but I’m fun of IRL seasons before CART invasion in 2003. So I always enjoy IRL carsets for ICR2 and always wanted to improve early IRL car carshape for early seasons. And finally I’ve done it. I took IRL2k car body by Tjerk, completely redone it, improved some details. Also carshapes between seasons have some difference to simulate seasons upgrades. All carsets have working damage models.
I use carsets by R. Brent Blackburn and 2000 Indianapolis 500 carset by John Froehlich, Roger Nebelsick, T-Jay Harris as a base for my work. I’ve kept all original credits and readme files in archives.
Each year consists of three carsets:
irlXXa – pre Indianapolis 500 races
indyXX – Indianapolis 500 race
irlXXb – post Indianapolis 500 races
Some carsets include driver options to simulate driver changes in teams. I add text file with Driver2.txt option string. Option car liveries can be found in ‘cars options’ folder and installed with ICR2 manager or manually. One exception is IRL2k1a carset (2001 pre Indianapoils carset). I this carset you can find dat and drivers txt file for Phoenix race (to include Penske cars).
Hope you enjoy this carsets as I do
