Rioux Mods 2010 NSCS Mod or the Sprint Cup mod from the Bull Ring.
I have to decide for next season, and can not make my mind up.
Some idea's on what you think would be apreciated. Thanks.

I think they are both good. The simple question is, why not put it up to a vote of league members and the one that has more votes, wins. If they are even, then think about whether you want to make the whole league repaint their cars for next year or if you want to be able to let people transfer their current schemes with the newer SS mod. That's how I would go about it.

Thank's guy's. it is not for a league just me. I like the dash in the Sprint Cup Mod better
so that is tipping it that way. Frame rate's are about the same with both and i have
car's painted for both. I think there will be more cars for SCM. at more site's
So that will help.
Thanks again.
I still appreciate the Rioux people making their mod, but it does not come close to the SS.net mod, which is the obvious choice to me.
Actually, the Rioux mod is closer to the real COT than the Bullring/SS.net mod is, especially with version 2 coming very soon. The 3D car models for the Rioux mod have been reworked to match current NASCAR specs, especially from the rear window back. The 3D car models for the Bullring/SS.net mod, on the other hand, have not had a major update in practically three years, aside from making the cowl flaps functional and redoing the wheels.
One thing I've noticed whenever this comparison comes up is that people say that the reason they prefer the Bullring/SS.net mod isn't because of accuracy, it's because of the fact that the paints for the previous version 1.04 are compatible. Big freaking deal. To me, paint compatibility doesn't mean diddly squat if the models aren't accurate.
Thought I'd throw my $.02 into this discussion.

Unless they have a rulebook, rest assured, those cars will NOT be accurate. I was the one who hooked Smoke-OR up with some pages from the book, however the image he was basing the mod off of is nothing more than a inaccurate reference image used merely to point out the dimensions of the certain body features. I recently learned that myself when attempting to play with an old model of mine in 3ds Max (talk about frustrating, lol). The other images that may prove useful are only frame/chassis images. I'll up ya a penny, there's my $.03.
