Patrik Marek updated 1999 Volvo S40 BTCC with a new update entry:

Fixing font

I thought the included font in the list led_big was our custom font, but I was told that it's actually a font by Kunos! this means that if you were to do integrity check, it would get overwritten again,

so I've renamed it to be led_big2, so that there isn't a mixup

it won't break anything, as the change is replacing ^ with a degree sign
thanks for letting me know @AlleyViper

check yourself before you wreck yourself

Sorry, it's been a long day, I did update the font, but haven't added the new data.acd, so here is another update

with this speed, it will be V1.0 before we know it

Nice looking '99 s40 in '98 livery

Haven't tried it yet as I spend so much time working on my own projects, but have to try it soon I think.

Thank you to you and the team Patrik!

Hello... congrats on the huge release of BTCC #3 with the S40! I understand, from setting up the Primera in the past, that your front-drive cars have a special challenge to drive well. That said, the issue I can't resolve with the Volvo is tire temps; I can't seem to maintain a good temperature in the rear tires despite trying different setup tweaks. Please share your insights in this area, or let me know if it's just a matter of taking car not to overdrive the car, ie, slower entry, smooth apex and exit. Thanks!

Because Super Touring was the golden age of excess

Can someone make the Bathurst 1000 1998 skin? Rydell and Richards in the #40 and Harvey and Nilsson (I think) in the #4

I’ve driven this a lot today, it’s simply perfect. Love it.

yeah, if the Primera drives like this one it will be a great battle

driving with the Medium tires, you have to do corrections but it's logic, best FWD racecar feeling to date I could say. Just tried default settings, it has some intended tail happiness at braking but after a few laps it handles much better.
