Lamborghini Gallardo Valentino Balboni for netKar

Radiator Spring Racing has released the first-ever add-on car for netKar Pro – The Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni.

Following their Mugello track for netKar, the guys are now the first to add another car to Kunos Simulazioni’s simulation.

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni is a leightweight version of the standard Gallardo, weighing just 1380 kilograms and being powered by a 543hp V10 engine.

The car consists of a scratch-made 3d model coming with scratch-made physics and sounds.

Radiator Springs Racing Team proudly presents the first add-on car for netKar PRO: the Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni.

We tried our best to have a car that is as close as possible to the real one.
We spent a lot of time looking for real data, modeling the car physics with care, and testing the car with people that drive it on track in real life.

This is just the first release of our work. We are planning to improve our car even more in the future.
We are aware of some little glitches, and we will fix them in the following releases.

Physics: Andrea Lojelo
3d model: Fulvio “Gek” Genova
Textures: Fulvio “Gek” Genova, Mario Gilles
Sounds: Attilio Barba, Domagoj Lovric
Skins: Mario Gilles, Simon Batina
UI: Luca Seghieri
Testing and technical support: Maarten Steverink, Gianluca Bonifacio, Fabio Grippa, Luca Mosca, Riccardo Azzoli, Clive Melbourne, Simon Batina, René Lorig, Marius Carey, Luca Orsetti, Mika Raymond, Paul O’Brien, Giancarlo Graziano, Francesco Ledda, Mario Gilles, Fulvio Genova, Andrea Lojelo.

This mod is for non-commercial, private use only.
Radiator Springs Racing Team created this car just to have fun, creating our own tools and experimenting a lot with a simulator that we love: netKar PRO.
We would like to thank Stefano “Kunos” Casillo for the wonderful work on this simulator.
Studying the way it works under the bonnet, trying to create a realistic physics for our car, we appreciated even more the great work he did.
The physics engine is reacting with incredible precision to any little change of a parameter.
During those months, we’ve seen the car evolving a lot, and improving more and more as soon as new real data was found and modeled.

We would like to thank all testers, and everyone that showed interest on our project.

We hope you will like it and will have fun with it, as much as we do.
You are all invited to the championships we organize on our website.

    it’s got some great potential but I think aero balance needs some fine tuning.

    Sorry guys that I’m writing here but somebody is sleeping here.Few days ago was announced great track for rf2 and I don’t see any news about that on VirtualR……

    Hi, thanks for you comment, vilivili.
    Aerodynamic measures are coming straight from some wind tunnel test data.
    Unless I’ve misinterpreted something, should be all right. 
    After doing some math and setting the parameters in nk, I checked the telemetry and I got in nk the values compatible with the real measurements.
    Here some measurements of the approximate weight distribution at different speed (maintaining a constant speed, to avoid altering the measurements)

    100 km/h 43% front
    200 km/h 41.5% front
    300 km/h 39% front
    under heavy braking 65% front

    The car is a lot of fun to drive.  It drifts nicely and can still bite you.
