vdrift review

[thelusiv]

I'd just like to take the opportunity here, since everyone's requesting cars, to mention the fact that nobody is working on cars for VDrift right now. For quite a while dmaurer aka kcid was doing it, but I haven't heard from him in quite a while - he hasn't gotten on IRC or the site, nor has he answered any of my emails.

So for all of you wishing to drive this car or that in VDrift, we need someone to step up to the plate and start helping take care of the cars. I can't keep up with all the cars as well as code...there's just not enough time. Joe and I have a little time between coding to tweak a car or two, from time to time, but right now there are simply too many for us to manage all of them, and there's no way we'll have time to add new ones at this rate.

Lots of people have started threads in the past few months saying they'll make cars, some even posting very nice screen shots, but we haven't seen any (since dmaurer's) come to fruition. There are some really nice models out there, that just need to be found or converted. I hope somebody decides to do this soon...otherwise we probably won't see many new cars in the game for a while.
