      "Sim racers" gravitate to GT3 cars because of driving aids built into them. A TA2 open lobby would be a nightmare.

    Man these look fun! Love the analog feel like you say. That RWD heavy floating feeling is great, hard but great! One of favourite cars was the Kuno C7R obv a different cat being a GTE car but it still had some of those US muscle car charactics. Completely different exp to the mid-engined GTEs. Ive recently bought the RSS Hyperion which is hoot but Ive often thought of how fun a series of cars with a similar driving experience would be and this looks like that’s exactly it! Wish I’d know of this pack 1st! These look a little more road track friendly than they Hyperion too…. Only just though! Haha.

    Great car! Fun to drive! The Chevrette and the Mare are too. Soon we will have an open server named 'Midwest Racing' to race them in. I wish they had one more gear so we could run them on the NASCAR tracks also. My sons and I love to race. Building a new sim racing server as I speak. Or, type. Lol! Hope to have it up and running this weekend! Just need one more part. It'll be here Thursday.

    Thanks very much for this review. Mr SimRacing604. I will definitely be adding this full pack, now that you say it's most likely complete. But I just want to ask you an editing question please, as I am SO IMPRESSED by your car sound volumes increasing whenever to don't chat for a brief while. So are you turning up the car sounds always manually in the editing process - or does your editing software come with some sort of automatic "noisegate" - as it just sounds so brilliantly seamless?

    Great, another TA2 car to add to the wonderful pair I already have .
    I really, really like these cars in AC - they are great fun.
    However, has VRC done anything to improve the AI performance as this was the big failing of the first pair of TA2 cars.
    I'm a mid level racer - Im okay but not that quick, but I'm about 5-10 seconds a lap quicker than the AI of VRCs original pair of TA2 cars. The AI performance of these cars is the worst I've encountered in Assetto Corsa.
    So my question isn't whether I'll like this car as I'm sure I will, but will it provide dent off-line perfomance so I can have a good race against the AI.
    Can you answer this for me, Mike?

    VRC messed something up. The car is really undrivable compared to the Camaro and Mustang models. Sept 27th they patched it to 1.1. Not sure what the changes are.
    Of course, now the Dodge has a different tire model than the other two, it warms up in 3/4 lap while the others take 2-3 laps. They really need to update all three models for BOP.
