Metric GM Link Fix

This file is the same as uploaded 2 days ago, if you already have it you do not need to download this

For anyone that was having issues with the download link, this one should work. Some users also reported that Google told them to "wait 24 hours" to download, a limit that Google drive puts on large files with high download traffic. If this issue persists, I will start including 2 links or start looking for alternative file upload methods.

Player Voted Vehicle #3 - Imperial

Poll ends Tuesday @ Midnight

64-66 Full Frame Imperials - The most infamous and recognizable years for the Chrysler flagship sedan. These vehicles are full framed & leafed. These cars are historically banned, although an argument can be made that the sport has progressed past the point of them needing to be outlawed, and notably will be making an appearance at Blizzard Bash this year.

67-73 Sub Frame Imperials - These vehicles are also regu...

Player Voted Vehicle #2 - Mopar (REVOTE)

I'm restarting the poll with more information about vehicles after it was brought to my attention that players don't what the options are.
PICTURE EXAMPLES OF ALL CARS BELOW

Y Framers - Refers to fullsize Mopars from 65-73, including box body style Mopars from 65-68 and Fuselage body Mopars from 69-73. Vehicles included in this group are 65-73 Chrysler Newports, New Yorkers, Dodge Polara, Monaco, etc. Wagon bodies also exist for this platform, such ...

Player Voted Vehicle

Here's your chance to have a say in what the field looks like in RDP!

The voting process will be in multiple stages. The first poll is Mopar/Ford/GM. From there, we will narrow it down to a type of vehicle, and a year & body style.

Legal Cars - All notable fullsize vehicles are eligible to be chosen, with the exception of bodies of vehicles already in RDP, such as panther platform fomoco, shockers, non cadillac metric GMs, and 71-76 GMS (rivieras are an except...

Custom Track Interest Poll

Would you like if I took a few weeks away from working on vehicles to add a new fully custom modeled recreation track for public release, with Fairgrounds compatibility? - I already have a track in mind if I were to do this. No specific timeline/start date

Roundback, Shocker, Wbody & More Update

Hi all, hope everybody has been enjoying the Impala. I've taken the last few weeks as an opportunity to improve and add onto the existing vehicles. In particular, I wanted to improve the roundback most, making it more realistic and more competitively viable without being so frustrating to run against. The vehicle has been adjusted front to back.

I've also spent a lot of time reworking the structure of the shocker subframes. The stock subframe should be much better for stock rules now. ...

73 Impala Update

This update adds the 1973 Chevy Impala coupe to RDP. It's frame can be found under the same vehicle slot as the olds (now retitled 71-76 GM). This vehicle has C channel rear rails, a relatively soft and unpredictable trunk, but good humps and a strong front end, with a shorter frame than the 76 olds, and a better doghouse and core support. This car is, in my opinion, the most realistic and high quality vehicle yet, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, as this car has beco...
