[GTL Skin] Posche 917K David Piper Vila Real 1971


 


This is the Porsche 917K chassis #917010 as it raced in the 1971 Circuito Internacional de Vila Real in the hands of Mário de Araújo "Nicha" Cabral (said to have been the greatest Portuguese driver in history). For that year's event the organization payed for David Piper and his team to bring the car from England to take part in the race, just for the spectators pleasure! Nicha Cabral (who was racing Piper's cars at the time) delivered a good show, having a great race against Bagration in his modified 906 and a Ferrari 512M. Cabral lost some time after a oil pressure scare and then recovered in a spectacular way, but despite the effort, Bagration won and Nicha came in second. Though, in the hearts of the Vila Real people Cabral was the real winner!

I started from Mexe's skin of this car from when it raced in the 1971 Watkins Glen 6h, but ended up changing almost everything. This is for all those like me that lived, breathed and loved the races in the Vila Real Circuit (finished just in time for the 2014 edition, many more skins will come with time).
Here for many more years of racing!

[GTL Skin] Lamborghini Miura 1968 ACP GP at Granja do Marquês













Download link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ndlv8uhnnjsc737/45.rar

This car is from the 1st ACP GP at Granja do Marquês, here in Portugal in 1968, at the hands of Mário de Araujo "Nicha" Cabral (said to have been the greatest Portuguese driver in history).
The car didn't do very well and wasn't able to finish due to bad amateur tuning, but is one of
the very few known cases of a Miura competing.

As far as I know, there are only three black and white photos of the car. To know more I contacted the museum I thought owned the car nowadays (their car has the same numberplate, but they said theirs actually came to Portugal much later than Nicha's), either way I'm told that supposedly this colors are about right. I'm not sure about the "Sacor" stickers, but every car racing in Portugal in that time was fueled and sponsored by it.

[GTL Skin] BMW M1 Group 4 winner of Vila Real 1983

This is the skin of the BMW M1 that won the 1983 Vila Real Circuit, Portugal.


This car is the ex-Warsteiner M1 that came to Portugal in 1983 in the hands of Antonio Taveira and completely dominated all competitions in the country for the next few years.
I was only capable of finishing it thanks to the hints of a mechanic I met that served it and was literally by my side while I was painting it.
Thanks to this skin I was able to actually meet Antonio Taveira, who still lives in Vila Real and still owns the car, and show him the finished result. He absolutely loved it, pointed out a couple of corrections, and he spent the night telling me stories from his races in the 80s. One of my greatest days ever!

This skin is convertible to GTR2 an rFactor.

MAKE BACKUPS, PEOPLE!!

I just had a major setback when just recently I lost about half of all my GTA SA modding files (downloaded mods, tools, my paintjobs and models, etc.) while I was updating my backup and my pcdecided to crash! In other words, of 39 GB and 44.000 documents I was left with 19 GB and 20.000. Right now I'm using data recovering programs to retrieve as many documents as I can and, as soon as possible, I will continue uploading those that I can save here.
It's frustrating that, after making mods for so long, this had to happen when I barely started releasing them!

I just hope that, whoever modder that reads this, will not have the same misfortune. Notice that it happened while I was making a backup, so remember that ALL THE CAREFULNESS IS NEVER ENOUGH!

Hopefully, if I can recover everything, you soon can expect me publishing:
