Description

<b>Introduction</b><br>
Once again I have the pleasure of presenting to the fine people of Race Department a racing automobile.<br>
<br>
Don Yenko was a car racing man. This is his car racing car.<br>

<b>Okay, Say A Bit More</b><br>
Don Yenko ran a Chevrolet dealership. It is there that he conceived and birthed the Yenko Stinger. Formerly known as a Chevrolet Corvair Corsa (until he scraped those badges off to save weight). Homologation special, letting Yenko supply drivers with cars for SCCA events. It still has a 2.8 litre flat 6 engine, but the carburetors, intake, and exhaust have been replaced for the purpose of going fast. Aerodynamic improvements have also been added. And a sticker proclaiming stage 2, so that everyone knows this has nearly 30 extra horsepower over stock.<br>
<br>
Think of it as a Porsche 911 that has room for two to three extra teens, and also a large quantity of luggage.<br>
<br>
<b>Installation</b><br>
Open the 7zip file, drag and drop into assettocorsa/content/cars. The normal deal.<br>
<i>This mod requires the Custom Shaders Patch, ideally version 0.1.60 or newer.</i><br>
Several physics fixes contained therein simplify production of trailing arm geometry cars, it&apos;d be silly to work around them. I haven&apos;t tested down to lower versions as this is the latest recommended.<br>

<b>April 1</b><br>
This car was originally made available on April 1st 2022. As such it comes with a joke model; to wit, there&apos;s a fibreglass cartoon head on it instead of a roof. The inspiration for this is the car aphidgod used as an avatar. That one&apos;s built on a ~1990 Dodge Colt hatchback so it&apos;s slightly smaller. I preferred to make it an interesting car to drive on its own. The physics match the art car, meaning extra aero drag and weight high up.
