Mercedes 190 Judd V8 HillClimb

Description

Let me introduce this monster : the engine swapped prototype Mercedes 190 made for Hillclimb.
It was a pain to get the power outputs correctly due to the lack of data over it (no Dyno from the engine) because it’s a tunned F1 engine. Judd has a relatively great catalogue of engine types for different application, including Hillclimb but this one is the Judd EV 3.5 V8 from the 1990 Brabham F1 race car.
In that in mind, I’ll be honest and confess that there is a bit of speculation concerning the torque curve on this one:
A maximum torque of 400Nm that can produce 558bhp at 9500 rpm is honestly impossible to translate in real power curve without cheating on some realistic features like the drivetrain powerloss.
Though I could reach those numbers by increasing the rev limiter a bit and shift the curve shape from the Judd V8 Reference dyno 500 rpm further, the max power output of 558bhp (from AC) is calculated at 10400 rpm.

Original Car Mod from eboo :

What do you get from this revised Mod ?
– revised power torque curve
– with 60 points generated power.LUT made within my torque Curve Creator tool
– UI numbers recalculated from car data, not just written down
– Ver.10 Slick Tyre model based on Pirelli GT3 class with more realistic grip (reduced)
– corrected physics on suspensions because of weird and unstable behaviors
– subtle damaging the engine at near Rev limit (sorry but this has to be)
– Pirelli Logo on livery 600
– corrected car paint texture bug showing pitch black ingame
– sounds volume ajusted (just found out how this can be done)
– a Nordschleife setup that you can copy everywhere because the car is more accurate with this (IDK how to set this as default)

Official Description
Team Meisel Motorsport competes in European hill climb with their Judd V8 powered Mercedes SLK340. However before the SLK340 they competed in their famous Mercedes 190 RM1 V8. The W201 was powered by a 3.5 L Judd V8 from a 1990 Brabham F1 race car connected (Judd EV 3.5 V8) to a Hewland six-speed sequential transmission. The 90-degree V8 ran on a Motec M800 ECU and made 564 horsepower (415 kW) at 9900 rpm and 400 Nm of torque. Plenty of power for a 1818 lb (825 kg) vehicle with a 47/53 weight bias

I discovered that sound may not be set correctly at verry high RPM on this mod. I need to fix that when I can.
