How to Install


1. Extract the Modding.zip file to the game directory. (Steam\SteamApps\Common\Spintires).


2. Extract the contents of the Media.zip into the Media folder (Usually you can just Right Click the file and select Extract to Media\).


3. Do the same with the Shaders and TexturesCache zip files (Same as above but for the Shaders\TexturesCache folders).

How to Uninstall

1. Delete the Config.xml file in the User folder.


2. Delete the Media, Shaders and TexturesCache folders (Optional, the game won't use these files anymore).


3. Right click the game on Steam, click Properties, then Local Files and click Verify integrity of game cache.




 



And here it is. The long awaited successor to the fantastic five cylinder Focus RS is finally here. Coming right after the reveal of the new Ford GT, the new Focus RS is part of the 12 performance vehicles Ford plans to release by 2020. As It was with previous RS models, the new Focus RS is jam packed with technology. Some new and some not so much. From the crazy torque steer of the first Focus RS, through the mind boggling technology of the RevoKnuckle and we are finally here with 4WD torque vectoring. The Ford Focus WRC Rally car can finally be bought and driven on the road. Too bad it comes three years after it's retirement from the Rally Championship.






And here is Ken Block drifting about in it:

Racing Cars




Speaking of backsides, check this one out. Got downforce bro?


Holy carbon fibre, Batman! Probably the sexiest racecar at the expo was this Renault. There is something fundamentally evil and sinister in this car. Just look at it. 


This beauty was part of the auction held at the grounds and whoever bought it, has bought perfect lovechild between Lancia and Ferrari. 


Above is a 1960s Lotus and below is a 2014 Ferrari. 
Find the differences.



If I was a Russian oligarch or an Arabian millionaire I would definitely have this Lotus engine at my mansion as it is truly a piece of art. 


1500+Bhp and 3000+Nm. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Retro Cars


How a Mustang should look like. None of the EcoBoost crap. All of the Steve McQueen cool.



There would not be any Evos and Imprezas if it wasn't for this car. Turbocharged 5 cylinders and Quattro? This car has everything.


The backside of the Lamborghini Countach is a very nice example of how engineering is following design. If you imagine the brake lights done using modern L.E.D. technology fully using the form provided by the designers you can see how modern the car becomes. Instead the people of the 80s were stuck with these ugly rectangles.

Modified Cars



This red RS5 was not only supercharged but also with exactly the right amount of low and no excessive camber.


I want you to play real close attention to the next two photos. There are 1200bhp photographed there, and it's just in one car.


The heart of the beast. Through these pipes rushes fresh air at pressures of over 30 psi.


I've saved the best, in my opinion, from the modified cars for last. This monastery by Lumma Design is has the true essence of a modified car. The car looks different and nice and yet the royal presence of the Range Rover is still there in it's 3 tonnes of glory.

The 2015 Autosport International car show was held between the 8th and the 11th of January and I learned about the show around noon on the 11th. So I quickly gathered what I could manage in a prepper during an apocalypse type of way and was out of the door in a matter of minutes. After a surprisingly cheap bus ride I was at the Birmingham International Airport. From the airport it's a very long walk to the NEC. It was all indoors and must have been at least two miles from the departures lounge at the airport to the ticket kiosk at the NEC. This is definitely the biggest auto show I have ever been to. And the amount of cars was stunning. And I use the term cars very loosely as there were race cars, stock cars, dirt track cars, drift cars, drag cars, highway pulls cars, old cars, new cars, beautiful cars and revolutionary ones as well, racing trucks, and even racing tractors. The one thing more stunning than the number of cars was the number of people there. It was very crowded. So crowded that I was unable to get a clear shot of the cars without standing 20 centimetres away from it.
What I give you below is just a small part of the vehicles that were there, for the full gallery with over 170 photos click HERE.

Supercars



I finally got to see the LaFerrari and my gosh is it gorgeous. This car looks more like a sculpture than a means of transport.


The Huracan was also a car I had never seen. Set to replace the Gallardo it definitely has the Lambo aggression we all know and love.



The old girl still has it. The Gallardo Superleggera looks like a stealth bomber.


This is the Ferrari 458 Speciale. Don't know much about it except it has even more aerodynamic elements and a rather good looking racing stripe.


And I almost forgot. The Ferrari 458 Speciale has fake exhaust pipes.
