The <b>Saleen Mustang SR2 GT2</b> is now available in high quality for the first time ever. You’ve probably driven this car in classic games like <i>Sports Car GT</i> and <i>Test Drive Le Mans</i> and so have I. <i>Sports Car GT</i> was one of the first sim-racing games I ever played, and the Saleen was one of my most-used cars in that game, right alongside the Porsche 911 GT2.<br>
<br>
For years, I’ve wanted to drive this car in a modern title like <i>Assetto Corsa</i>, but I’d never seen anyone actually take the step to do it properly. So I did. I commissioned <a href="https://www.overtake.gg/members/794362/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="794362" data-username="@TheNuvolari">@TheNuvolari</a> to make it from scratch.<br>
<br>
The car has been photomatched for the best accuracy we can provide, and I think the model speaks for itself in terms of how close it is to the real car at least visually.<br>
<br>
I won’t lie the physics are most likely not 1:1. Finding information on this car was difficult. Luckily, Saleen had some videos on their YouTube channel that gave us insight into the car’s suspension, and we were able to find some PR papers covering its weight, power, and more. We were also fortunate to get our hands on some official setup papers that Saleen used during an event, thanks to a guy on Twitter who goes by <b>JERACERX</b>. Unfortunately, we had to build the physics based on interpretations. I tried several times to get in touch with Saleen themselves and sent them over 10 emails, but they never responded.<br>
<br>
Please do provide any feedback on the physics, in the discussion tab including any issues you find with the mod and we'll try and fix it as quick as possible.<br>
<br>
This car launches with the following:<br>

#67 Saleen Le Mans 24 Hours 1997<br>
Includes: The 97' number light (<span style="font-size: 10px">Enabled by pressing Extra Button B</span>)<br>
<br>
Every part can, of course, be enabled on any skin by simply adding the necessary code to the <b>ext_config.ini</b>. On top of that, you can enable the endurance fog lights for the car in the Visual tab. However, due to issues we were never able to figure out why the lights refuse to work with the standard headlight button. So to enable the foglights, you’ll need to use <b>Extra Button C</b>.<br>

What this mod does <i>not</i> include<br>
<b>Spanish GT variant:</b><br>
Yes, this car continued racing all the way into 2002 in Spain, where it featured several changes such as a side-exit exhaust, different wheels, and other modifications. We didn’t get around to making that version. If there’s enough interest, I might consider commissioning that spec in the future.<br>
<br>
This mod is based on the <b>1997 Le Mans</b> car, not the version that appeared at <b>Daytona</b> the same year hence the divider in the middle.<br>
<br>

I have plans to commision another car in the future, Hence why there is an donation option. It's not mandatory but it's there if you want to help fund it, Hint It's rear engine dominated GT2 for years.<br>
<br>
You can support that by either donating trough paypal at the top or trough Ko-Fi <a href="https://ko-fi.com/s/b8b0377f18" target="_blank" class="link link--external" data-proxy-href="/proxy.php?link=https%3A%2F%2Fko-fi.com%2Fs%2Fb8b0377f18&hash=6cad7b2c823c23043ffbc847ee6bcfb9" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">here</a><br>
