Folks
It is time to travel back to 1974 and the IMSA series in USA.
I have always enjoyed Jolo's 1975 championship mod and noticed a couple of skins from the IMSA series.
Coming from Australia I knew very little about this series but after I stumbled across this great little site
www.pbase.com/mwphoto/1974_imsa_mid_ohio
I decided to try and put together a field of cars from this era. I love the late 60's and 70's racing....
There is around 27 skins in this pack, I have included an RFM file and Talent file also. It should install cleanly into an existing install of Jolo's great mod.
I have created most of the skins but I did gather some from other sources and they are given credit. I have used these sites for further reference and to add a few extra cars in.

www.wspr-racing.com/wspr/results/imsa/imsa1974.html
Most of the cars are based on the Mid Ohio race of 74 with a few extras. Sample of some of the skins below
Most are reasonably historically accurate but some are approximates as I could not find a lot of photos of some cars. I have added a Datsun and Alfa in and used the de tomaso sorry if this offends someone if it does don't download it... :-)
As with my other skins I am not the best skinner in the world my photoshop skills are improving but don't expect perfection. But you you will get a field of similar era cars with great Jolo physics to tackles the IMSA tracks of the mid 70's....
Of course you can also use the skins in the Historic Gt mod but I will leave that up to you...
Hope you enjoy my small contribution back into this fine community. :-)
