Before the rust there was speed!

New journal entry, yay! Ages ago before I started with my grunge aesthetics I worked on a raceway theme. The '67 Pontiac GTO and "Herbie" VW Bug are here on MTS, but did you know there's a lot more?
Kind of tragic irony: This '69 Camaro by WittyOne/Great Oz sparked the whole thing, but I made so many recolors (over 100!) that it always felt too complicated to organize uploading here. Still it would be a shame if it was completely forgotten.
Back then I didn't know how to use a mesh program for my WIP preview, so these patterns are the result of painstaking hours of doing a recolor, checking it in game, parallelly changing some pixels in Photoshop, closing the game, updating the recolor, starting the game again and hoping that I got the details right this time.
This is only a very very small selection, there're many more different patterns and custom interiors behind the link! Sims2carsource.net
(I also shared some non-shiny "rockabilly" recolors with my favourite interior on Sims2Plaza.)
There're team-jackets to go with the car recolors as well, available at Insimenator.
Oh, and don't forget to look at this Shelby GT 500. No ads or numbers, but that dark shade of green is still awesome! I think I'll dig that up and do something with it.
Finally, there's the raceway pit I used as a background. It's a photo set, not fully developed but maybe useful to someone.
And after doing all these things? I went on and never actually played with it ...
I was rather restless back then, note how almost every download is on a different site.
