FR26 - Modern "Ground Era" Formula Race Car
The FR26 is a high-performance open-wheel racing mod for BeamNG.drive, meticulously designed to bring the speed and intensity of modern "ground effect" formula racing into the game's advanced physics engine.
Originally developed by ProjectNextrace, this mod focuses on balancing extreme aerodynamic downforce with a rewarding driving model.
Key Features:
Custom JBeam Structure: A completely unique chassis build designed for high-speed stability while maintaining realistic F1-style crash deformation.
Modern Aero Model: Features a high-downforce physics profile that sucks the car to the track in high-speed corners, mirroring 2022+ era regulations.
Livery Support: Includes high-quality PBR textures and various skins, including the iconic 2024 Alpine A524 (Pink/Black) livery seen in the previews.
Optimized Handling: Tuned to be engaging and controllable whether you are using a direct-drive steering wheel or a standard gamepad.
Detailed Cockpit: Features an animated steering wheel display and realistic driver positioning for an immersive POV experience.
Technical Specs:
Powertrain: High-revving V6 Turbo engine with custom sound samples.
Transmission: Rapid-shift 8-speed sequential gearbox.
Materials: Full PBR (Physically Based Rendering) for realistic carbon fiber and paint reflections.
Note: For the best experience, it is recommended to use the vanilla "Race" UI apps to track laptimes and G-forces.d
